Funded Activity Summary

Representation theory: studies of symmetry shadows. This project aims to solve fundamental problems in representation theory by combining cutting-edge techniques and developing novel higher level structures. Representation theory is the mathematical study of symmetry, an essential concept in science. Since the 1990s, mathematicians have been observing shadows of a more general notion of symmetry but so far have failed to explain it. Expected outcomes include a structural explanation of these shadows, new mathematical software to understand them and solutions to important conjectures. This project will make a significant contribution to the field of representation theory, with ramifications in mathematical physics and computer science.
