Dualities and invariants with applications to asymptotic representation theory
In this course we will review classical invariant theory, discuss Howe duality for classical Lie groups and its extension to Lie superalgebras.
We will use the dualities for classical pairs of Lie groups to pose asymptotic questions. We will study representations of these dual pairs in the limit when ranks of the groups grow to infinity. We will then try to extend these results to Lie superalgebras. The material in this course is meant to provide deeper understanding and some missing proofs for results in my course "From free fermions to limit shapes and beyond", as well as pose new questions in asymptotic representation theory. Some connection will be made to the lectures of Pavel Nikitin "Representation theory of symmetric groups" and "Asymptotic representation theory".
