Centralizer bound for irreducible representations of $\operatorname{SU}_n(\mathbb{C})$
Let $G$ be a finite group, $χ$ be the character of an irreducible representation $V$ of $G$, and $g ∈ G$. Then a classical bound on the trace of $g$ is given by: $|χ(g)|² ≤ |C_G(g)|$, where $C_G(g)$ ...

Why are coroots needed for the classification of reductive groups?
As we know reductive groups up to isomorphism corresponds to root data up to isomorphism. My question is why in the definition of root data do we need the coroots?
Let's break it down to two questions:...

Invariants for $SO_n \backslash \mathfrak{gl}_n / SO_n$
Is there a nice theorem about the algebra of invariants $\mathbb{C}[\mathfrak{gl}_n]^{SO_n \times SO_n}$, where the action is by left and right multiplication? I'm hoping for something along the lines ...

Definition of Admissible Representation
Let $G$ be a connected, reductive group over a number field $k$. Let $v$ be a place of $k$.
If $v$ is finite, an admissible representation of $G(k_v)$ is defined to be an abstract representation of $...

Character determines the representation?
Consider a semisimple Lie group or a $p$ adic reductive group $G$.
To what extent can the character of a representation as a distribution on $C_c^\infty(G)$ determine the representation?
