On parabolic subgroups and Hecke algebras of some fractal groups (original) (raw)
1999, Arxiv preprint math/9911206
Abstract: We study the subgroup structure, Hecke algebras, quasi-regular representations, and asymptotic properties of some fractal groups of branch type. We introduce parabolic subgroups, show that they are weakly maximal, and that the corresponding quasi-regular representations are irreducible. These (infinite-dimensional) representations are approximated by finite-dimensional quasi-regular representations. The Hecke algebras associated to these parabolic subgroups are commutative, so the decomposition in ...

On the spectrum of Hecke type operators related to some fractal groups
Arxiv preprint math/9910102, 1999
Abstract: We give the first example of a connected 4-regular graph whose Laplace operator's spectrum is a Cantor set, as well as several other computations of spectra following a common``finite approximation''method. These spectra are simple transforms of the Julia sets associated to some quadratic maps. The graphs involved are Schreier graphs of fractal groups of intermediate growth, and are also``substitutional graphs''. We also formulate our results in terms of Hecke type operators related to some irreducible quasi-regular ...

The idea of self-similarity is one of the most fundamental in the modern mathematics. The notion of " renormalization group " , which plays an essential role in quantum field theory, statistical physics and dynamical systems, is related to it. The notions of fractal and multi-fractal, playing an important role in singular geometry, measure theory and holomorphic dynamics, are also related. Self-similarity also appears in the theory of C *-algebras (for example in the representation theory of the Cuntz algebras) and in many other branches of mathematics. Starting from 1980 the idea of self-similarity entered algebra and began to exert great influence on asymptotic and geometric group theory. The aim of this paper is to present a survey of ideas, notions and results that are connected to self-simil...
Infinitesimal Hecke Algebras II
2009
For W a finite (2-)reflection group and B its (generalized) braid group, we determine the Zariski closure of the image of B inside the corresponding Iwahori-Hecke algebra. The Lie algebra of this closure is reductive and generated in the group algebra of W by the reflections of W. We determine its decomposition in simple factors. In case W is a Coxeter group, we prove that the representations involved are unitarizable when the parameters of the representations have modulus 1 and are close to 1. We consequently determine the topological closure in this case.
Representations of metaplectic groups II: Hecke algebra correspondences
Representation Theory of the American Mathematical Society, 2012
The metaplectic group is defined by its oscillator or Weil representation. Using the types of the Weil representations we define two Hecke algebras that govern two Bernstein’s components containing the even and the odd Weil representation, respectively.
