Abstract A machinery developed by the second author produces a rich family of unitary representations of the Thompson groups F, T and V. We use it to give direct proofs of two previously known results. First, we exhibit a unitary representation of V that has an almost invariant vector but no nonzero {[F,F]} -invariant vectors reproving and extending Reznikoff’s result that any intermediate subgroup between the commutator subgroup of F and V does not have Kazhdan’s property (T) (though Reznikoff proved it for subgroups of T). Second, we construct a one parameter family interpolating between the trivial and the left regular representations of V. We exhibit a net of coefficients for those representations which vanish at infinity on T and converge to 1 thus reproving that T has the Haagerup property after Farley who further proved that V has this property.

We consider decay properties including the decay parameter, invariant measures, invariant vectors, and quasistationary distributions of a Markovian bulk-arriving queue that stops immediately after hitting the zero state. Investigating such behavior is crucial in realizing the busy period and some other related properties of Markovian bulk-arriving queues. The exact value of the decay parameter λC is obtained and expressed explicitly. The invariant measures, invariant vectors, and quasistationary distributions are then presented. We show that there exists a family of invariant measures indexed by λ ∈ [0, λC]. We then show that, under some conditions, there exists a family of quasistationary distributions, also indexed by λ ∈ [0, λC]. The generating functions of these invariant measures and quasistationary distributions are presented. We further show that a stopped Markovian bulk-arriving queue is always λC-transient and some deep properties are revealed. The clear geometric interpretation of the decay parameter is explained. A few examples are then provided to illustrate the results obtained in this paper.

In this paper we discuss the decay properties of Markov branching processes with disasters, including the decay parameter, invariant measures, and quasistationary distributions. After showing that the corresponding q-matrix Q is always regular and, thus, that the Feller minimal Q-process is honest, we obtain the exact value of the decay parameter λ C . We show that the decay parameter can be easily expressed explicitly. We further show that the Markov branching process with disaster is always λ C -positive. The invariant vectors, the invariant measures, and the quasidistributions are given explicitly.

AbstractLet$G$be a simple algebraic group. Labelled trivalent graphs called webs can be used to produce invariants in tensor products of minuscule representations. For each web, we construct a configuration space of points in the affine Grassmannian. Via the geometric Satake correspondence, we relate these configuration spaces to the invariant vectors coming from webs. In the case of$G= \mathrm{SL} (3)$, non-elliptic webs yield a basis for the invariant spaces. The non-elliptic condition, which is equivalent to the condition that the dual diskoid of the web is$\mathrm{CAT} (0)$, is explained by the fact that affine buildings are$\mathrm{CAT} (0)$.

In this paper, we study the first-order cohomology space of countable direct limit groups related to Olshanski spherical pairs, relatively to unitary representations which do not have almost invariant vectors. In particular, we prove a variant of Delorme’s vanishing result of the first-order cohomology space for spherical representations of Olshanski spherical pairs.

AbstractIn noncommutative geometry a ‘Lie algebra’ or bidirectional bicovariant differential calculus on a finite group is provided by a choice of an ad-stable generating subset $\mathcal{C}$ stable under inversion. We study the associated Killing form K. For the universal calculus associated to $\mathcal{C}$ = G \ {e} we show that the magnitude $\mu=\sum_{a,b\in\mathcal{C}}(K^{-1})_{a,b}$ of the Killing form is defined for all finite groups (even when K is not invertible) and that a finite group is Roth, meaning its conjugation representation contains every irreducible, iff μ ≠ 1/(N − 1) where N is the number of conjugacy classes. We show further that the Killing form is invertible in the Roth case, and that the Killing form restricted to the (N − 1)-dimensional subspace of invariant vectors is invertible iff the finite group is an almost-Roth group (meaning its conjugation representation has at most one missing irreducible). It is known [9, 10] that most nonabelian finite simple groups are Roth and that all are almost Roth. At the other extreme from the universal calculus we prove that the 2-cycles conjugacy class in any Sn has invertible Killing form, and the same for the generating conjugacy classes in the case of the dihedral groups D2n with n odd. We verify invertibility of the Killing forms of all real conjugacy classes in all nonabelian finite simple groups to order 75,000, by computer, and we conjecture this to extend to all nonabelian finite simple groups.

AbstractLet$\mathfrak{F}$be a locally compact nonarchimedean field with residue characteristic$p$, and let$\mathrm{G} $be the group of$\mathfrak{F}$-rational points of a connected split reductive group over$\mathfrak{F}$. For$k$an arbitrary field of any characteristic, we study the homological properties of the Iwahori–Hecke$k$-algebra${\mathrm{H} }^{\prime } $and of the pro-$p$Iwahori–Hecke$k$-algebra$\mathrm{H} $of$\mathrm{G} $. We prove that both of these algebras are Gorenstein rings with self-injective dimension bounded above by the rank of$\mathrm{G} $. If$\mathrm{G} $is semisimple, we also show that this upper bound is sharp, that both$\mathrm{H} $and${\mathrm{H} }^{\prime } $are Auslander–Gorenstein, and that there is a duality functor on the finite length modules of$\mathrm{H} $(respectively${\mathrm{H} }^{\prime } $). We obtain the analogous Gorenstein and Auslander–Gorenstein properties for the graded rings associated to$\mathrm{H} $and${\mathrm{H} }^{\prime } $.When$k$has characteristic$p$, we prove that in ‘most’ cases$\mathrm{H} $and${\mathrm{H} }^{\prime } $have infinite global dimension. In particular, we deduce that the category of smooth$k$-representations of$\mathrm{G} = {\mathrm{PGL} }_{2} ({ \mathbb{Q} }_{p} )$generated by their invariant vectors under the pro-$p$Iwahori subgroup has infinite global dimension (at least if$k$is algebraically closed).
