We generalize the classical Ceva's and Menelaus's theorems to curvilinear triangles bounded by circular arcs. We introduce trilinear coordinates associated with such triangles and develop several geometric constructions. In particular, for…

The term Gibbons conjecture is widely used in connection with symmetry results for the Allen-Cahn equation. However, its origin is less transparent than its frequent citation suggests. In this note, we revisit its emergence, tracing it to a…

In this paper we prove the WALA conjecture.

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a symmetrizable Kac-Moody Lie algebra and let $\rho$ denote the sum of the fundamental weights. The irreducible highest weight representations $V(m\rho)$ occupy a distinguished position in representation theory due to…

In our previous papers we repeatedly emphasized the special role in Quaternionic Analysis of the conformal group SU(2,2) and other real forms of its complexification SL(4,C). In particular, the natural product map of the left and right…

We introduce the notion of quasi-Poisson modules over Lie-Rinehart pairs and prove that for the Lie-Rinehart pair $(\dot A,\dot\fk)$ in which $\dot A=\bbbc[t_1^{\pm1},\ldots,t_m^{\pm1}]\ot\Lam_n$ and $\dot\fk={\rm Der}(\dot A)$, there is a…

In this paper, we study the dual Minkowski problem under group symmetry. For $0<q\le n$, we give a complete existence characterization in the framework of $G$-invariant convex bodies when the group $G\subset O(n)$ has no nonzero fixed…

Some of the multiplicity-freeness results in ``Modular Gelfand pairs and multiplicity-free representations'' are stated in overly broad generality. We provide counterexamples and partial corrections.

Covering theory is an important tool in representation theory of algebras, however, the results and the proofs are scattered in the literature. We give an introduction to covering theory at a level as elementary as possible.

We provide a geometric realization of the quasi-split affine $\imath$quantum group of type AIII$_{2n-1}^{(\tau)}$ in terms of equivariant K-groups of non-connected Steinberg varieties of type C. This uses a new Drinfeld type presentation of…

Let $\mathcal {C}$ be a small category and let $R$ be a representation of the category $\mathcal {C}$, that is, a pseudofunctor from a small category to the category of small preadditive categories. In this paper, we mainly study the…

This article establishes alcove walk models for intersections of Schubert varieties and partially semi-infinite orbits in the affine Grassmannian of a split reductive group (we call such intersections parabolic Mirkovi\'c-Vilonen…

Let $\mathfrak{u}_\zeta^\vee$ denote the small quantum group associated with a simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}^\vee$ and a root of unity $\zeta$. In [9], a geometric realization of $Z(\mathfrak{u}_\zeta^\vee)^{G^\vee}$, the…

For an algebraic group $Q$ with $\mathsf{Lie\,} Q=\mathfrak q$, we develop a method for estimating the index of a subalgebra $\mathfrak h$ in $\mathfrak q$ via the use of coadjoint $Q$-orbits in $\mathfrak q^*$. Let $\mathfrak q^\xi$ denote…

For any acyclic quiver $Q$ without multiple edges, we construct a monoidal category $\mathcal{R}_Q$ whose indecomposable objects are tensor products (over the base field) of finite-dimensional modules over the path algebra of $Q$. We show…

This paper gives a complete description of the solutions of the global positioning problem, emphasizing the under-determined case. We show that the solutions form a quadric, which may degenerate in various ways. Perhaps more surprisingly,…

Brauer graph algebras form a classical class of symmetric algebras with well-structured combinatorial properties and geometric models. Recently, they have been generalized to biserial fractional Brauer graph algebras, which can be regarded…

In one of his posthumous papers, conserved in G\"ottingen, Riemann considers the derivatives of $\log\zeta(s)$ at the point $1/2$, giving explicit values for them. Around 2010 we shared Riemann's value of the second derivative with some…

Mirkovi\'c--Vilonen (MV) polytopes play a key role in the representation theory of reductive algebraic groups, while the geometric behavior of prime MV polytopes under Minkowski addition remains a subtle open problem. This paper focuses on…

We define a distance analogous to the Gromov-Hausdorff distance that enables the comparison of arbitrary quasi-isometric spaces. We also investigate properties preserved under limits with respect to this distance, as well as properties of…
