In this paper, we continue our study of abstract representations of elementary subgroups of Chevalley groups of rank $\geq 2.$ First, we extend our earlier methods to analyze representations of elementary groups over arbitrary associative…

The irrational torus, $\mathrm{T}_\alpha$, originally introduced as a geometric model for quasicrystals, is a foundational object in the theory of diffeology. This paper, after recalling its main algebraic properties, provides a…

Let k be a number field and K/k Galois. We transform the construction of the unramified Brauer group of the norm one torus R^1_K/k(G_m) into the construction of a special abelian extension over K. If k=Q and K/Q biquadratic, we explicitly…

Twisted torus knots are a generalization of torus knots, obtained by introducing additional full twists to adjacent strands of the torus knots. In this article, we present an explicit formula for the Alexander polynomial of twisted torus…

We show that for a reductive group $G$ over a field $k$ the $\mathbb{A}^1$-Euler characteristic of the variety of maximal tori in $G$ is an invertible element of the Grothendieck-Witt ring $\mathrm{GW}(k)$, settling the weak form of a…

In this paper we propose a systematic study of Thom polynomials for group actions defined by M. Kazarian. On one hand we show that Thom polynomials are first obstructions for the existence of a section and are connected to several problems…

We study the lower bounds and upper bounds for LS-category and equivariant LS-category. In particular we compute both invariants for torus manifolds. There are some examples to show the sharpness of conditions in the theorems. Moreover the…

In this paper we show that a normal affine toric variety X different from the algebraic torus is uniquely determined by its automorphism group in the category of affine irreducible, not necessarily normal, algebraic varieties if and only if…

I present a construction "a` la Chevalley" of affine supergroups associated with simple Lie superalgebras of (classical) type D(2,1;a), for any possible value of the parameter a - in particular, including non-integral values of a. This…

In previous work it is shown that there is an abelian category A(G) constructed to model rational G-equivariant cohomology theories, where G is a torus of rank r together with a homology functor \piA_* : Gspectra ---> A(G), and an Adams…

In [Dugan-Glennon-Gunnells-Steingrimsson-2019], the authors introduce tiered trees to define combinatorial objects counting absolutely indecomposable representations of certain quivers, and torus orbits on certain homogeneous varieties. In…

We compute the vacuum expectation values of torus knot operators in Chern-Simons theory, and we obtain explicit formulae for all classical gauge groups and for arbitrary representations. We reproduce a known formula for the HOMFLY…

If $G$ is a finite classical group, linear or unitary in any characteristic, and orthogonal in odd characteristic, we give an approximate formula for $\chi(g)$ in which the error term is much smaller than the estimate, when $g\in G$ is an…

In this paper we introduce a method to obtain algebraic information using arithmetic one in the study of tori and their principal homogeneous spaces. In particular, using some results of the authors with Tingyu Lee, we determine the…

This paper is the fourth and last in the series "On the classification of primitive ideals for complex classical Lie algebras", extending earlier results in other classical types to type D. The generalized tau-invariant used in earlier work…

It is argued on general ground and demonstrated in the particular example of the Chiral Schwinger Model that there is nothing wrong with apparently anomalous chiral gauge theory. If quantised correctly, there should be no gauge anomaly and…

Let X be a T-variety, where T is an algebraic torus. We describe a fully faithful functor from the category of T-equivariant vector bundles on X to a certain category of filtered vector bundles on a suitable quotient of X by T. We show that…

The methods of classical invariant theory are used to construct generic polynomials for groups $S_5$ and $A_5$, along with explicit reductions to specializations of the generic polynomials defining any desired field extension with those…

In our previous paper, we studied the category of semifinite bundles on a proper variety defined over a field of characteristic 0. As a result, we obtained the fact that for a smooth projective curve defined over an algebraically closed…

We give explicit formulas for the dimensions and the degrees of $A$-discriminant varieties introduced by Gelfand-Kapranov-Zelevinsky. Our formulas can be applied also to the case where the $A$-discriminant varieties are higher-codimensional…
