We show that a differential algebraic group can be filtered by a finite subnormal series of differential algebraic groups such that successive quotients are almost simple, that is have no normal subgroups of the same type. We give a…
The aim of this note is to discuss the following quite queer Problem: \noindent GIVEN \noindent i) the free non-commutative polynomial ring, ${\Cal P} := {\Bbb F}\langle X_1,\ldots,X_n\rangle$ {\em (public)}, \noindent ii) a bilateral ideal…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and let $I$ be a two-generated ideal of $R$. We denote by $\operatorname{SL}_2(R)$ the group of $2 \times 2$ matrices over $R$ with determinant $1$. We study the action of $\operatorname{SL}_2(R)$…
Let R be a commutative ring with unity, M be an unitary R-module and {\Gamma} be a simple graph. This research article is an interplay of combinatorial and algebraic properties of M . We show a combinatorial object completely determines an…
The regular objects in various categories, such as maps, hypermaps or covering spaces, can be identified with the normal subgroups N of a given group \Gamma, with quotient group isomorphic to \Gamma/N. It is shown how to enumerate such…
We give a proof, using so-called fusion rings and q-deformations of Brauer algebras that the representation ring of an orthogonal or symplectic group can be obtained as a quotient of a ring Gr(O(\infinity)). This is obtained here as a…
We build on our construction of Hopf algebroids from noncommutative calculi under the further assumption of surjectivity for the calculus. We also introduce the notions of Hopf ideals and isotopy quotients for arbitrary Hopf algebroids.…
A group pair $(G, X)$ consists of a group $G$ together with a $G$-set $X$. Such a pair encodes properties of $G$ relative to the stabilisers of points in $X$. In this paper, we show how to combine properties of group pairs and their…
These are expanded lecture notes of a series of expository talks surveying basic aspects of group cohomology and homology. They were written for someone who has had a first course in graduate algebra but no background in cohomology. You…
We study linear actions of algebraic groups on smooth projective varieties X. A guiding goal for us is to understand the cohomology of "quotients" under such actions, by generalizing (from reductive to non-reductive group actions) existing…
We give an analog of Frobenius' theorem about the factorization of the group determinant on the group algebra of finite abelian groups and we extend it into dihedral groups and generalized quaternion groups. Furthermore, we describe the…
We consider the group G of R-automorphisms of the polynomial ring R[x] especially in the case where R is the ring of integers modulo n. We describe conjugacy classes in G, and in the case where n = 4, we describe more explicitly the…
Let $ G $ be a Lie group with Lie algebra $ \mathfrak{g} $. An element $ X \in \mathfrak{g} $ is called $\mathrm{Ad}_G$-real if $ -X=gXg^{-1} $ for some $ g \in G $. Moreover, if $ -X=gXg^{-1} $ holds for some involution $ g\in G $, then $…
We describe new combinatorial methods for constructing an explicit free resolution of Z by ZG-modules when G is a group of fractions of a monoid where enough least common multiples exist (``locally Gaussian monoid''), and, therefore, for…
For G an arbitrary profinite group, we construct an algebraic model for rational G-spectra in terms of G-equivariant sheaves over the space of subgroups of G. This generalises the known case of finite groups to a much wider class of…
Given a finitely presented group $G$, Hopf's formula expresses the second integral homology of $G$ in terms of generators and relators. We give an algorithm that exploits Hopf's formula to estimate $H_2(G;k)$, with coefficients in a finite…
We consider the class $\mathcal{A}_0$ of Abelian block-rigid $CRQ$-groups of ring type. A subgroup $A$ of an Abelian group $G$ is called an \textsf{absolute ideal} of the group $G$ if $A$ is an ideal in any ring on $G$. We describe…
The aim of the papers is to describe the left regular left quotient ring ${}'Q(R)$ and the right regular right quotient ring $Q'(R)$ for the following algebras $R$: $\mS_n=\mS_1^{\t n}$ is the algebra of one-sided inverses, where…
Let $G$ be a connected compact Lie group and let $\mathbb{G}$ be its complexification. In this paper, we establish a correspondence between the moduli spaces of holomorphic disks bounded by a $G$-invariant Lagrangian submanifold $L…
Let G be a group and let A be the algebra of complex functions on G with finite support. The product in G gives rise to a coproduct on A making it a multiplier Hopf algebra. In fact, because there exist integrals, we get an algebraic…
