Institut Mittag-Leffler workshop on Branching Problems for Reductive Groups
2016 06 01 - [math] [algebraic-groups] [workshop] In May 2016, I attended a week-long workshop on Branching Problems
for Reductive
Groups
at the Institut Mittag-Leffler (Djursholm, Sweden).
I gave a lecture on An overview of representations of reductive
algebraic groups; essentially everything I discussed can be found in
the text of Jens Jantzen on the representation theory of algebraic
groups. I tried to focus on things that seemed relevant to the
difficulties presented by modular representation theory to “branching
problems”: (Hochschild) cohomology, the description of simple
representations for reductive groups, reduction mod \(p\) and the
Jantzen filtration of Weyl modules.
Here are the slides from my talk.
