The aim of this note is to give a gentle introduction to algebras of partial triangulations of marked surfaces, following the structure of a talk given during the 49th symposium on ring theory and representation theory, held in Osaka. This…
This is a short survey article written for the Erd\H{o}s centennial conference in Budapest in 2013. The main two topics covered are Szemer\'edi's theorem and its ramifications, and the Erd\H{o}s discrepancy problem. There is an emphasis on…
This text is related to the tutorials I gave at the Banff International Research Station and within a "Doc-course" at Charles University Prague in the fall of 2014. It describes my current research and some of the most important open…
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…
We study the tropicalizations of analytic subvarieties of normal toric varieties over complete non-archimedean valuation fields. We show that a Zariski closed analytic subvariety of a normal toric variety is algebraic if its tropicalization…
A partly autobiographical survey of the development of enumerative and algebraic combinatorics in the 1960's and 1970's.
We prove some anologues for algebras of recent group-theoretic results (due to Khukhro, Klyachko, Makarenko, Milentyeva, and Shumyatsky) on large characteristic subgroups satisfying a given property.
This paper gives a brief overview of some new work in number theory and algebra, and also studies the arithmetic and algebraic properties of Minkowski balls and spheres. The content of the paper is presented in more detail in the table of…
The present notes are based on a course on Cherednik algebras given by the first author at MIT in the Fall of 2009. Their goal is to give an introduction to Cherednik algebras, and to review the web of connections between them and other…
This is a collection of teaching materials used in several Russian universities, schools, and mathematical circles. Most problems are chosen in such a way that in the course of the solution and discussion a reader learns important…
In recent decades, identities similar to the one in the Ptolemy's theorem started to pop up in many fields in connection to the notion of cluster algebras introduced and studied since 2000 by Fomin and Zelevinsky. In this brief note we will…
These notes provide a concise introduction to the representation theory of reductive algebraic groups in positive characteristic, with an emphasis on Lusztig's character formula and geometric representation theory. They are based on the…
These lecture notes are intended to give a modest impulse to anyone willing to start or pursue a journey into the theory of Vertex Algebras by reading one of Kac's or Lepowsky-Li's books. Therefore, the primary goal is to provide required…
An International Workshop dedicated to the anniversary of the Polyakov's String (of course today there is no need to remind the meaning and the role of this theory) was held in Chernogolovka in June 2005. Apart from the 25-th anniversary of…
This paper develops some of the methods of the "Italian School" of algebraic geometry in the context of infinitesimals. The results of this paper have no claim to originality, they can be found in Severi, we have only made the arguments…
This note recapitulates and expands the contents of a tutorial on the mathematical theory of algebraic effects and handlers which I gave at the Dagstuhl seminar 18172 "Algebraic effect handlers go mainstream". It is targeted roughly at the…
The aim of this paper is to unify the points of view of three recent and independent papers (Ventura 1997, Margolis, Sapir and Weil 2001 and Kapovich and Miasnikov 2002), where similar modern versions of a 1951 theorem of Takahasi were…
This is a review devoted to some results of Algebraic Programming (Computer Algebra) used in treating several problems of general relativity, based mainly on already published articles. The article contains the talk given by the author at…
In the first part of our paper (Sections 1, 2 and 3) we reprove results of B. Plotkin, G. Zhitomirski. On automorphisms of categories of free algebras of some varieties, Journal of Algebra, 306:2, (2006), 344 -- 367 for the case of…
For an algebraic variety $X$ we study the behavior of algebraic morphisms from an algebraic variety to the group $\bir(X)$ of birational maps of $X$ and obtain, as application, some insight about the relationship between the so-called…
