Generalized descent algebra and construction of irreducible characters of hyperoctahedral groups

Cédric Bonnafé, Christophe Hohlweg (2006)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

We construct a subalgebra Σ ( W n ) of dimension 2 · 3 n - 1 of the group algebra of the Weyl group W n of type B n containing its usual Solomon algebra and the one of 𝔖 n : Σ ( W n ) is nothing but the Mantaci-Reutenauer algebra but our point of view leads us to a construction of a surjective morphism of algebras Σ ( W n ) Z Irr ( W n ) . Jöllenbeck’s construction of irreducible characters of the symmetric group by using the coplactic equivalence classes can then be transposed to W n . In an appendix, P. Baumann and C. Hohlweg present in an...

Kac-Moody groups, hovels and Littelmann paths

Stéphane Gaussent, Guy Rousseau (2008)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

We give the definition of a kind of building for a symmetrizable Kac-Moody group over a field K endowed with a discrete valuation and with a residue field containing . Due to the lack of some important property of buildings, we call it a hovel. Nevertheless, some good ones remain, for example, the existence of retractions with center a sector-germ. This enables us to generalize many results proved in the semisimple case by S. Gaussent and P. Littelmann. In particular, if K = ( ( t ) ) , the geodesic...

Effective equidistribution of S-integral points on symmetric varieties

Yves Benoist, Hee Oh (2012)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

Let K be a global field of characteristic not 2. Let Z = H G be a symmetric variety defined over K and S a finite set of places of K . We obtain counting and equidistribution results for the S-integral points of Z . Our results are effective when K is a number field.

Linear maps preserving orbits

Gerald W. Schwarz (2012)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

Let H GL ( V ) be a connected complex reductive group where V is a finite-dimensional complex vector space. Let v V and let G = { g GL ( V ) g H v = H v } . Following Raïs we say that the orbit H v is if the identity component of G is H . If H is semisimple, we say that H v is for H if the identity component of G is an extension of H by a torus. We classify the H -orbits which are not (semi)-characteristic in many cases.
