In this paper we investigate relations between Koopman, groupoid and quasi-regular representations of countable groups. We show that for an ergodic measure class preserving action of a countable group G on a standard Borel space the associated groupoid and quasi-regular representations are weakly equivalent and weakly contained in the Koopman representation. Moreover, if the action is hyperfinite then the Koopman representation is weakly equivalent to the groupoid. As a corollary of our results we obtain a continuum of pairwise disjoint pairwise equivalent irreducible representations of weakly branch groups. As an illustration we calculate spectra of regular, Koopman and groupoid representations associated to the action of the 2-group of intermediate growth constructed by the second author in 1980.
We study Koopman and quasi-regular representations corresponding to the action of arbitrary weakly branch group G on the boundary of a rooted tree T. One of the main results is that in the case of a quasi-invariant Bernoulli measure on the boundary o
We introduce a notion of measure contracting actions and show that Koopman representations corresponding to ergodic measure contracting actions are irreducible. As a corollary we obtain that Koopman representations associated to canonical actions of
We classify the irreducible projective representations of symmetric and alternating groups of minimal possible and second minimal possible dimensions, and get a lower bound for the third minimal dimension. On the way we obtain some new results on branching which might be of independent interest.
We classify all triples $(G,V,H)$ such that $SL_n(q)leq Gleq GL_n(q)$, $V$ is a representation of $G$ of dimension greater than one over an algebraically closed field $FF$ of characteristic coprime to $q$, and $H$ is a proper subgroup of $G$ such tha
For a finite group $G$, let $p(G)$ denote the minimal degree of a faithful permutation representation of $G$. The minimal degree of a faithful representation of $G$ by quasi-permutation matrices over the fields $mathbb{C}$ and $mathbb{Q}$ are denoted
