$q$-(and other)-analogs for counting index-$n$ subgroups in terms of Homs to $S_n$?
The following formula of astonishing beauty and power (imho):
$$ \sum_{n \ge 0} \frac{| \mathrm{Hom}(G,S_n) | }{n! } z^n = \exp\left( \sum_{n \ge 1} \frac{|\text{Index}~n~\text{subgroups of}~ G|}nz^...

Classification of $\operatorname{Rep} D(G)$
Let $G$ be a finite group and $D(G)$ its quantum double. Its finite dimensional complex representations are classified in this Dijkgraaf et al. Quasi-Quantum Groups Related To Orbifold Models. However,...

Representations of $D(G)$ as an object in the center of $\operatorname{Rep}(G)$
Let $G$ be a finite group and $D(G)$ its quantum double. As in my previous question, a typical irreducible representation (finite dimensional over $\mathbb{C}$) is labeled by $(\theta,\pi)$, where $\...
