Let $d$ be an odd square-free integer and $\zeta_8$ a primitive $8$-th root of unity. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the rank of the $2$-class group of the fields $L_d=\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_8,\sqrt{d})$.
The symmetric inverse monoid, SIM(n), is the set of all partial one-to-one mappings from the set {1, 2, ... , n} to itself under the operation of composition. Earlier research on the symmetric inverse monoid delineated the process for…
We give central elements of the Yang-Baxter algebra for the $R$-matrix of the eight-vertex model, in the case when the crossing parameter is a rational multiple of one of the periods.
Motivated by the discovery that the eighth root of the theta series of the E_8 lattice and the 24th root of the theta series of the Leech lattice both have integer coefficients, we investigate the question of when an arbitrary element f in…
Two integral quadratic unit forms are called strongly Gram congruent if their upper triangular Gram matrices are Z-congruent. The paper gives a combinatorial strong Gram invariant for those unit forms that are non-negative of Dynkin type A,…
A simple ansatz is proposed for two-color R-matrix satisfying the tetrahedron equation. It generalizes, on one hand, a particular case of the eight-vertex model to three dimensions, and on another hand - Hietarinta's permutation-type…
We advertise elementary symmetric polynomials $e_i$ as the natural basis for generating series $A_{g,n}$ of intersection numbers of genus g and n marked points. Closed formulae for $A_{g,n}$ are known for genera $0$ and $1$ -- this approach…
In well-known work, Kazhdan and Lusztig (1979) defined a new set of Hecke algebra basis elements (actually two such sets) associated to elements in any Coxeter group. Often these basis elements are computed by a standard recursive algorithm…
The vertices of the four dimensional $120$-cell form a non-crystallographic root system whose corresponding symmetry group is the Coxeter group $H_{4}$. There are two special coordinate representations of this root system in which they and…
It is well known that the point group of the root lattice D_6 admits the icosahedral group as a maximal subgroup. The generators of the icosahedral group H_3, its roots and weights are determined in terms of those of D_6. Platonic and…
Assuming standard conjectures, we show that the canonical symmetrizing trace evaluated at powers of a Coxeter element produces rational Catalan numbers for irreducible spetsial complex reflection groups. This extends a technique used by…
In this paper will be introduced large, probably complete family of complex base systems, which are 'proper' - for each point of the space there is a representation which is unique for all but some zero measure set. The condition defining…
Inspired by Coxeter's notion of Petrie polygon for $d$-polytopes (see \cite{Cox73}), we consider a generalization of the notion of zigzag circuits on complexes and compute the zigzag structure for several interesting families of…
The congruence lattices of all algebras defined on a fixed finite set $A$ ordered by inclusion form a finite atomistic lattice $\mathcal E$. We describe the atoms and coatoms. Each meet-irreducible element of $\mathcal E$ being determined…
We give a simple formula for the signature of a foldable triangulation of a lattice polygon in terms of its boundary. This yields lower bounds on the number of real roots of certain of systems of polynomial equations known as "Wronski…
Let $(W,R)$ be an arbitrary Coxeter system. We determine the number of elements of $W$ that have a unique reduced expression.
A method for solving cyclic block three-diagonal systems of equations is generalized for solving a block cyclic penta-diagonal system of equations. Introducing a special form of two new variables the original system is split into three…
Postulating that spacetime is discrete, we assume that physical space is described by a 3-dimensional cubic lattice.The corresponding symmetry group of rotations has order 24 and motivates the introduction of a cubic shaped graph with 27…
In the present paper we study twisted foldings of root systems which generalize usual involutive foldings corresponding to automorphisms of Dynkin diagrams. Our motivating example is the Lusztig projection of the root system of type $E_8$…
In this paper, we calculate the coefficient ring of equivariant Thom complex cobordism for the symmetric group on three elements. We also make some remarks on general methods of calculating certain pullbacks of rings which typically occur…
