Title The Geometry of Tempered Characters
Abstract In this introductory talk, we will briefly recall parts of Harish-Chandra's theory of characters for reductive groups and the geometric formula of Rossmann and Duflo for tempered characters of reductive groups. Examples will be given in the case G=SL(2,R).
Title The Geometry of Harmonic Analysis
Abstract In this talk, we will present recent joint work with Tobias Weich. When G is a real, reductive algebraic group and X is a homogeneous space for G with an invariant measure, we will completely describe the regular, semisimple asymptotics of the support of the Plancherel measure for L^2(X). We will give concrete examples of this theorem, describing what can and cannot be deduced from this result.
Title The Geometry of Nontempered Characters
Abstract In this talk, we will survey the results of Rossmann and Schmid-Vilonen on geometric formulas for nontempered characters of reductive groups, and we will mention an old result of Barbasch-Vogan on the special case A_q(lambda). We will discuss what nontempered character formulas would be necessary to generalize the main formula of the second talk, and we will make conjectures.
Speaker Peter Trapa (University of Utah)
Title Unitary representations of reductive Lie groups I, II, III
Abstract Let G be a real reductive group. I will describe an algorithm to determine the unitary dual of G. More precisely, I will describe an algorithm to determine if an irreducible (g,K) module (specified in the Langlands classification) is unitary in the sense that it admits a positive definite invariant Hermitian form. This is joint work with Jeffrey Adams, Marc van Leeuwen, and David Vogan.
Speaker Raul Gomez (Cornel University)
Title 1. The Tor and Ext functors for smooth representations of real algebraic groups
Abstract Inspired by the recent work of Dipendra Prasad in the $p$-adic setting, we define the Tor and Ext functors for an appropriate category of smooth representations of a real algebraic group $G$, and give some applications. This is joint work with Birgit Speh.
Title 2. Generalized and degenerate Whittaker models associated to nilpotent orbits
Abstract In this talk, we examine the relation between the different spaces of Whittaker models that can be attached to a nilpotent orbit. We will also explore their relation to other nilpotent invariants (like the wave front set) and show some examples and applications. This is joint work with Dmitry Gourevitch and Siddhartha Sahi.
Title 3. Local Theta lifting of generalized Whittaker models
Abstract In this talk, we describe the behavior of the space of generalized Whittaker models attached to a nilpotent orbit under the local theta correspondence. This description is a generalization of a result of Moeglin in the p-adic setting. This is joint work with Chengbo Zhu.

Title: Representations of quantized function algebras and the transition matrices from Canonical bases to PBW bases
Abstract:
[ pdf ]
Let $G$ be a connected simply connected simple complex algebraic group of type $ADE$ and $\mathfrak{g}$ the corresponding simple Lie algebra. In this talk, I will explain our new algebraic proof of the positivity of the transition matrices from the canonical basis to the PBW bases of $U_q(\mathfrak{n}^+)$. Here, $U_q(\mathfrak{n}^+)$ denotes the positive part of the quantized enveloping algebra $U_q(\ mathfrak{g})$. (This positivity, which is a generalization of Lusztig's result, was originally proved by Kato (Duke Math. J. 163 (2014)).) We use the relation between $U_q(\mathfrak{n}^+)$ and the specific irreducible representations of the quantized function algebra $\mathbb{Q} _q[G]$. This relation has recently been pointed out by Kuniba, Okado and Yamada (SIGMA. 9 (2013)). Firstly, we study it taking into account the right $U_q(\mathfrak{g})$-algebra structure of $\mathbb{Q}_q[G]$. Next, we calculate the transition matrices from the canonical basis to the PBW bases using the result obtained in the first step.

Title: A Gysin formula for Hall-Littlewood polynomials
Abstract:
[ pdf ]
Schubert calculus on Grassmannians is governed by Schur S- functions, the one on Lagrangian Grassmannians by Schur Q-functions. There were several attempts to give a unifying approach to both situations. We propose to use Hall-Littlewood symmetric polynomials. They appeared implicitly in Hall's study of the combinatorial lattice structure of finite abelian p-groups and in Green's calculations of the characters of GL(n) over finite fields; they appeared explicitly in the work of Littlewood on some problems in representation theory. With the projection in a Grassmann bundle, there is associated its Gysin map, induced by pushing forward cycles (topologists call it "integration along fibers"). We state and prove a Gysin formula for HL-polynomials in these bundles. We discuss its two specializations, giving better insights to previously known formulas for Schur S- and P-functions.

Title: Branching laws and elliptic boundary value problems
Abstract:
[ pdf ]
Classically the Poisson transform relates harmonic functions in the complex upper half plane to their boundary values on the real axis. In some recent work by Caffarelli et al. some new generalizations of this appears in connection with the fractional Laplacian. In this lecture we shall explain how the symmetry-breaking operators introduced by T. Kobayashi for studying branching laws may shed new light on the situation for elliptic boundary value problems. This is based on joint work with J. Möllers and G. Zhang.

Title: Visible actions of compact Lie groups on complex spherical varieties (複素球多様体へのコンパクトリー群の可視的作用について)
Abstract:
[ pdf ]
With the aim of uniform treatment of multiplicity-free representations of Lie groups, T. Kobayashi introduced the theory of visible actions on complex manifolds.
In this talk we consider visible actions of a compact real form U of a connected complex reductive algebraic group G on G-spherical varieties. Here a complex G-variety X is said to be spherical if a Borel subgroup of G has an open orbit on X. The sphericity implies the multiplicity-freeness property of the space of polynomials on X. Our main result gives an abstract proof for the visibility of U-actions. As a corollary, we obtain an alternative proof for the visibility of U- actions on linear multiplicity-free spaces, which was earlier proved by A. Sasaki (2009, 2011), and the visibility of U-actions on generalized flag varieties, earlier proved by Kobayashi (2007) and T- (2013, 2014).

Title: Norm computation and analytic continuation of vector valued holomorphic discrete series representations (ベクトル値正則離散系列表現のノルム計算と解析接続)
Abstract:
[ pdf ]
The holomorphic discrete series representations is realized on the space of vector-valued holomorphic functions on the complex bounded symmetric domains. When the parameter is sufficiently large, then its norm is given by the converging integral, but when the parameter becomes small, then the integral does not converge. However, if once we compute the norm explicitly, then we can consider its analytic continuation, and can discuss its properties, such as unitarizability. In this talk we treat the results on explicit norm computation.

正則離散系列表現は,複素有界対称領域上のベクトル値正則関数空間上に実現さ れる. そのノルムはパラメータが十分大きい場合には収束する積分で表せるが, パラメータが小さくなるとその積分は収束しなくなる. しかし,ノルムを具体的に計算することによって, その小さいパラメータへの解析接続を考えることができ, そのユニタリ化可能性などの性質を論じることができる. 本講演ではノルムの具体的な計算に関する結果を扱う.

Title: Rigidity of conformal functionals on spheres
Abstract:
[ pdf ]
On a compact smooth manifold one may construct a Riemannian metric in many different ways. Each metric gives rise to natural elliptic operators such as the Laplace-Beltrami operator and corresponding spectral invariants, e.g. the eigenvalues, the trace of the heat semigroup, and the zeta function. In this lecture we shall consider such functionals on the space of metrics on the sphere, combining conformal differential geometry and representation theory of semisimple Lie groups to obtain results about local extremal properties of special functionals. This is based on joint work with Niels Martin Möller.

Title: Restricting automorphic forms to geodesic cycles
Abstract:
[ pdf ]
We find estimates for the restriction of automorphic forms on hyperbolic manifolds to compact geodesic cycles in terms of their expansion into eigenfunctions of the Laplacian. Our method resembles earlier work on products of automorphic forms by Bernstein and Reznikov, and it uses Kobayashi's new symmetry-breaking kernels. This is joint work with Jan Möllers.

Title: RoCK blocks, wreath products and KLR algebras
Abstract:
[ pdf ]
The so-called RoCK (or Rouquier) blocks play an important role in representation theory of symmetric groups over a finite field of characteristic $p$, as well as of Hecke algebras at roots of unity. Turner has conjectured that a certain idempotent truncation of a RoCK block is Morita equivalent to the principal block $B_0$ of the wreath product $S_p\wr S_d$ of symmetric groups, where $d$ is the "weight" of the block. The talk will outline a proof of this conjecture, which generalizes a result of Chuang-Kessar proved for $d < p$. The proof uses an isomorphism between a Hecke algebra at a root of unity and a cyclotomic Khovanov-Lauda-Rouquier algebra, the resulting grading on the Hecke algebra and the ideas behind a construction of R-matrices for modules over KLR algebras due to Kang-Kashiwara-Kim.

Title: Local functional equations of Clifford quartic forms and homaloidal
Abstract:
[ pdf ]
It is known that one can associate local functional equation to the irreducible relative invariant of an irreducible regular prehomogeneous vector spaces. We construct Clifford quartic forms that cannot obtained from prehomogeneous vector spaces, but, for which one can associate local functional equations. The characterization of polynomials which satisfy local functional equations is an interesting problem. In relation to this characterization problem (in a more general form), Etingof, Kazhdan and Polishchuk raised a conjecture. We make a counter example of this conjecture from Clifford quartic forms. (This is based on the joint work with F.Sato)
局所関数等式が正則概均質ベクトル空間の基本相対不変式とその双対空間の多項 式のペアから与えられることは知られている。我々は Clifford quartic form と 呼ばれるある4次斉次多項式を構成し, それが概均質ベクトル空間の相対不変式 ではないにも関わらず局所関数等式を満たすことを示した。局所関数等式を満た す多項式を特徴付ける問題は興味深い未解決問題であるが, この問題に関連し、 Etingof, Kazhdan, Polishchuk は(もっと一般的な設定で)ある予想を提示した。 我々は、Clifford quartic form を用いて, この予想に反例があることを示し た。(この講演は佐藤文広氏との共同研究に基づいている。)

Title: Random subgroups and representation theory
Abstract:
[ pdf ]
The following problem had been appeared independently in different teams and various reason: to describe the Borel measures on the lattice of all subgroups of given group, which are invariant with respect to the action of the group by conjugacy. The main interest of course represents nonatomic measures which exist not for any group.

I will explain how these measures connected with characters and representations of the group, and describe the complete list of such measures for infinite symmetric group.

Title: INDEX THEORY AND K-HOMOLOGY
Abstract: This series of five lectures will prove the Atiyah-Singer index theorem as a corollary of Bott periodicity, and then give an exposition of some further developments.

Lecture 1 . Dirac Operator.
The Dirac operator of R^n will be constructed. Spin-c manifolds will be introduced.

Lecture 2. Atiyah-Singer Revisited.
First, some classical low-dimensional examples of the Atiyah-Singer theorem will be considered. Next, the Atiyah-Singer theorem for elliptic differential (or pseuo-differential) operators on closed smooth manifolds will be proved as a corollary of Bott periodicity.

Lecture 3. What is K-homology?
K-homology is the dual theory to K-theory. K-homology can be defined in three ways : via homotopy theory, via K-cycles, and (following Atiyah and Kasparov) via functional analysis. The lecture will give the three definitions and will explain why they are equivalent.

Lecture 4. Beyond Ellipticity.
K-homology will be used to prove an index theorem for a naturally arising class of hypoelliptic (but not elliptic) differential operators.

Lecture 5. The Riemann-Roch Theorem.
The Grothendieck-Riemann-Roch (GRR) theorem will be reviewed. K-homology will be used to extend GRR to projective algebraic varieties which may have singularities.

Title: MORITA EQUIVALENCE REVISITED
Abstract:
[ pdf ]
Let X be a complex affine variety and k its coordinate algebra. A k- algebra is an algebra A over the complex numbers which is a k-module (with an evident compatibility between the algebra structure of A and the k-module structure of A). A is not required to have a unit. A k-algebra A is of finite type if as a k-module A is finitely generated. This talk will review Morita equivalence for k-algebras and will then introduce --- for finite type k-algebras ---a weakening of Morita equivalence called geometric equivalence. The new equivalence relation preserves the primitive ideal space (i.e. the set of isomorphism classes of irreducible A-modules) and the periodic cyclic homology of A. However, the new equivalence relation permits a tearing apart of strata in the primitive ideal space which is not allowed by Morita equivalence.

Let G be a connected split reductive p-adic group, The ABPS (Aubert- Baum-Plymen-Solleveld) conjecture states that the finite type algebra which Bernstein assigns to any given Bernstein component in the smooth dual of G, is geometrically equivalent to the coordinate algebra of the associated extended quotient. The second talk will give an exposition of the ABPS conjecture.

Title: Shimizu's lemma for SL(3,R)/SO(3) (清水の補題のSL(3,R)/SO(3)の場合への拡張について)
Abstract:
[ pdf ]
We find a generalization of Shimizu's lemma in the case of the symmetric space SL(3, R)/SO(3) of noncompact type of rank 2. We also find a relation between this lemma and displacement of horoballs by isometries.

PSL(2,C)の部分群の離散性に関する必要条件である清水の補題, Jorgensenの不等式を双曲空間から他の階数1の対称空間の場合 に拡張しようという研究が現在進行中であるが, 高階の対称空間 についてそのような結果はまだないようである。階数が2の対称 空間で最も簡単なSL(3,R)/SO(3)の場合に清水の補題を拡張する 試みについてお話しする。

Title: GEOMETRIC STRUCTURE IN SMOOTH DUAL
Abstract:
[ pdf ]
Let G be a connected split reductive p-adic group. Examples are GL(n, F) , SL(n, F) , SO(n, F) , Sp(2n, F) , PGL(n, F) where n can be any positive integer and F can be any finite extension of the field Q_p of p-adic numbers. The smooth (or admissible) dual of G is the set of equivalence classes of smooth irreducible representations of G. This talk will first review the theory of the Bernstein center. According to this theory, the smooth dual of G is the disjoint union of subsets known as the Bernstein components. The talk will then explain the ABPS (Aubert-Baum-Plymen-Solleveld) conjecture which states that each Bernstein component is a complex affine variety. Each of these complex affine varieties is explicitly identified as the extended quotient associated to the given Bernstein component.

The ABPS conjecture has been proved for GL(n, F), SO(n, F), and Sp(2n, F).

Title: On (g,K)-modules over arbitrary fields and applications to special values of L-functions
Abstract:
[ pdf ]
I will introduce g,K-modules over arbitrary fields of characteristic 0 and discuss their fundamental properties and constructions, including Zuckerman functors. This may be applied to produce models of certain standard modules over number fields, which has applications to special values of automorphic L-functions, and also furnishes the space of regular algebraic cusp forms of GL(n) with a natural global Q-structure.
