Irreducible Degrees and the Order of a Finite Group

This is a question of aesthetics. For a finite group of order $n$, the proof that the degree $d$ of a complex irreducible representation divides $n$ goes by showing that the rational number $n/d$ …

Are the canonical actions on Schubert Cells Linearizable?

G. Schwarz constructed a (counter)example for an action of a simple algebraic group on an affine space that is not linearizable (i.e., it is not a representations). Natural examples of af …

Closed orbits of complete flags in $\mathbb{C}^n$

$O(n)$, by definition preserves the bilinear forms. Consider a subspace $W_r$ of dimension $r$ where the form is zero for any pair of vectors. Put it as the $r$th term of a complete flag $F$. Now con …

Representation theory of infinite dihedral group

It is a guess. Possibly what is meant is that the polynomial is palindromic: algebraically this means whenever $\alpha$ is a root $\alpha^{-1}$ is also a root, which translates to $f(x) = x^m f(\frac …

Relation Among Conjugacy Classes

This is more a request to find out if there is any work in the literature discussing certain things. Is there a naturally defined partial ordering on the set of conjugacy classes of a finite group G? …

Is there any Lefschetz-like principle for representations of finite groups?

Representation theory (at least the origin of this terminology) aims to exhibit a model (a represetative) in the group of matrices for an abstract group which is known by only its group law. So compl …
