representations with centralizer stable under conjugate transpose

Let $\rho:G\to GL_n(\mathbb{C})$ be a finite-dimensional representation of a finite group $G$ over $\mathbb{C}$, and $C_\rho\subset M_n(\mathbb{C})$ its centralizer, i.e. $m\in C$ iff $m$ commutes ...

Extreme points of the set of all traces

Let $G$ be a finitely generated group with a bound on its complex unitary irreducible representations: That is assume all complex unitary irreducibles of $G$ have degrees at most $k$ for some integer $...
