Filling boundaries of coarse manifolds in semisimple and solvable arithmetic groups

Filling Bestvina, Alex Eskin, Kevin Wortman (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We provide partial results towards a conjectural generalization of a theorem of Lubotzky-Mozes-Raghunathan for arithmetic groups (over number fields or function fields) that implies, in low dimensions, both polynomial isoperimetric inequalities and finiteness properties. As a tool in our proof, we establish polynomial isoperimetric inequalities and finiteness properties for certain solvable groups that appear as subgroups of parabolic groups in semisimple groups, thus generalizing a theorem of Bux....

Generalized quivers associated to reductive groups

Harm Derksen, Jerzy Weyman (2002)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We generalize the definition of quiver representation to arbitrary reductive groups. The classical definition corresponds to the general linear group. We also show that for classical groups our definition gives symplectic and orthogonal representations of quivers with involution inverting the direction of arrows.

Invariants d'un sous-groupe unipotent maximal d'un groupe semi-simple

Michel Brion (1983)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Soit G un groupe algébrique semi-simple complexe, U un sous-groupe unipotent maximal de G , T un tore maximal de G normalisant U . Si V est un G -module rationnel de dimension finie, alors G opère sur l’algèbre C [ V ] des fonctions polynomiales sur V ; la structure de G -module de C [ V ] est décrite par la T -algèbre C [ V ] U des U -invariants de C [ V ] . Cette algèbre est de type fini et multigraduée (par le degré de C [ V ] et le poids par rapport à T ). On donne une formule intégrale pour la série de Poincaré de cette algèbre graduée....

Invariants of four subspaces

Gerry W. Schwarz, David L. Wehlau (1998)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

We consider problems in invariant theory related to the classification of four vector subspaces of an n -dimensional complex vector space. We use castling techniques to quickly recover results of Howe and Huang on invariants. We further obtain information about principal isotropy groups, equidimensionality and the modules of covariants.

Local Borcherds products

Jan Hendrik Bruinier, Eberhard Freitag (2001)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

The local Picard group at a generic point of the one-dimensional Baily-Borel boundary of a Hermitean symmetric quotient of type O ( 2 , n ) is computed. The main ingredient is a local version of Borcherds’ automorphic products. The local obstructions for a Heegner divisor to be principal are given by certain theta series with harmonic coefficients. Sometimes they generate Borcherds’ space of global obstructions. In these particular cases we obtain a simple proof of a result due to the first author: Suppose...
