Majorana representations of finite groups

Abstract: The concept of Majorana representations of finite groups have been introduced by A.A. Ivanov in 2009 as a tool to better understand the Monster and its representation on the Conway-Norton-Griess algebra.

In my talk I will review the principal results of the theory of Majorana representations of finite groups. In particular, I will focus on the representations of the symmetric groups, presenting some joint work with A.A. Ivanov and M. Mainardis.
