Harmonic analysis on Heisenberg--Clifford Lie supergroups
We define a Fourier transform and a convolution product for functions and
distributions on Heisenberg--Clifford Lie supergroups. The Fourier transform
exchanges the convolution and a pointwise product, and is an intertwining
operator for the left regular representation. We generalize various classical
theorems, including the Paley--Wiener--Schwartz theorem, and define a
convolution Banach algebra.Comment: 28 page
Superunitary Representations of Heisenberg Supergroups
Numerous Lie supergroups do not admit superunitary representations except the
trivial one, e.g., Heisenberg and orthosymplectic supergroups in mixed
signature. To avoid this situation, we introduce in this paper a broader
definition of superunitary representation, relying on a new definition of
Hilbert superspace. The latter is inspired by the notion of Krein space and was
developed initially for noncommutative supergeometry. For Heisenberg
supergroups, this new approach yields a smooth generalization, whatever the
signature, of the unitary representation theory of the classical Heisenberg
group. First, we obtain Schrodinger-like representations by quantizing generic
coadjoint orbits. They satisfy the new definition of irreducible superunitary
representations and serve as ground to the main result of this paper: a
generalized Stone-von Neumann theorem. Then, we obtain the superunitary dual
and build a group Fourier transformation, satisfying Parseval theorem. We
eventually show that metaplectic representations, which extend Schrodinger-like
representations to metaplectic supergroups, also fit into this definition of
superunitary representations.Comment: 59 pages. v2: section 6 (Proof of Stone-von Neumann theorem) and

Fr\'echet Quantum Supergroups
In this paper, we introduce Fr\'echet quantum supergroups and their
representations. By using the universal deformation formula of the abelian
supergroups R^{m|n} we construct various classes of Fr\'echet quantum
supergroups that are deformation of classical ones. For such quantum
supergroups, we find an analog of Kac-Takesaki operators that are superunitary
and satisfy the pentagonal relation.Comment: 21 pages, published versio
Representations of Lie Groups and Supergroups
The workshop focussed on recent developments in the representation theory of group objects in several categories, mostly finite and infinite dimensional smooth manifolds and supermanifolds. The talks covered a broad range of topics, with a certain emphasis on benchmark problems and examples such as branching, limit behavior, and dual pairs. In many talks the relation to physics played an important role
