We derive the universal R-matrix of the quantum-deformed enveloping algebra of centrally extended sl(2|2) using Drinfeld's quantum double construction. We are led to enlarging the algebra by additional generators corresponding to an sl(2)…

An isomorphism, up to a twist, between the quasitriangular quantum enveloping algebra U_h(sl(2)) and the (classical) U(sl(2))[[h]]is discussed. The universal twisting element $\cal F$ is given up to the second order in the deformation…

We prove without any assumption on the ground field that higher Hochschild homology groups do not vanish for two large classes of algebras whose global dimension in not finite.

It is shown that that the rank of the second fundamental form (resp. the Levi form) of a $\mathcal C^2$-smooth convex hypersurface $M$ in $\Bbb R^{n+1}$ (resp. $\Bbb C^{n+1}$) does not exceed an integer constant $k<n$ near a point $p\in M,$…

Let A be a dg algebra over F_2 and let M be a dg A-bimodule. We show that under certain technical hypotheses on A, a noncommutative analog of the Hodge-to-de Rham spectral sequence starts at the Hochschild homology of the derived tensor…

Let $n\ge 2$ be an integer and assume that $\mathbb{A}=\{x\in\mathbf{R}^n:1<|x|<R\}$ and $\A_\ast = \{y \in \mathbf{R}^n: 1 < |y| < R_\ast\}$ be two annuli in Euclidean space $\mathbf{R}^n$. Assume that $\mathcal{F}(\A, \A_\ast)$ (resp.…

We consider entire solutions $\omega\in\dot H^1(\mathbb R^2;\mathbb R^3)$ of the $H$-system $\Delta\omega=2\omega_x\wedge\omega_y,$ which we refer to as bubbles. Surprisingly, and contrary to conjectures raised in the literature, we find…

Let $K$ be a field of characteristic different from $2$, $\bar{K}$ its algebraic closure. Let $n \ge 3$ be an odd prime such that $2$ is a primitive root modulo $n$. Let $f(x)$ and $h(x)$ be degree $n$ polynomials with coefficients in $K$…

We derive type II supergravity solutions corresponding to space-filling regular and fractional Dp branes on (9-p)-dimensional conical transverse spaces. Fractional Dp-branes are wrapped D(p+2)-branes; therefore, our solutions exist only if…

Equivalences under the affine group ${\rm Aff} (\mathbb{R}^3)$ of constant Hessian rank $1$ surfaces $S^2 \subset \mathbb{R}^3$, sometimes called parabolic, were, among other objects, studied by Doubrov, Komrakov, Rabinovich, Eastwood,…

We show that for an irreducible subvariety Y of an abelian variety X the Gauss mapping, from the conormal bundle of $Y$ to the dual of the tangent space of $X$ at the origin, is not dominant if and only if Y is degenerate in the sense that…

We prove that $A_R(G) \otimes_R A_R(H) \cong A_R(G \times H)$, if $G$ and $H$ are Hausdorff ample groupoids. As part of the proof, we give a new universal property of Steinberg algebras. We then consider the isomorphism problem for tensor…

Inspired by experimental data, this paper investigates which isogeny classes of abelian varieties defined over a finite field of odd characteristic contain the Jacobian of a hyperelliptic curve. We provide a necessary condition by…

The main result of the paper is on the continuity of weak solutions of infinitely degenerate quasilinear second order equations. Namely, we show that every weak solution to a certain class of degenerate quasilinear equations is continuous.…

Second-order superintegrable systems in dimensions two and three are essentially classified. With increasing dimension, however, the non-linear partial differential equations employed in current methods become unmanageable. Here we propose…

We provide a characterization of asymptotical speciality of a nef and big divisor $D$ on an algebraic surface in terms of the arithmetic genus of curves in $D^{\perp}$. As a consequence we prove that the SHGH conjecture for linear systems…

We completely classify all noncongruent linearly full totally unramified constantly curved holomorphic two-spheres in G(2,6) with constant square norm of the second fundamental form. They turn out to be homogeneous.

Artin's conjecture is established for all forms that can be realised as a diagonal form on an hyperplane.

Main Theorem: Spaces of r-branch point 3-cycle covers, degree n or Galois of degree n!/2 have one (resp. two) component(s) if r=n-1 (resp. r\ge n). Improves Fried-Serre on deciding when sphere covers with odd-order branching lift to…

We present a preliminary investigation of algebraic surfaces that have non-planar degenerations, along with their Galois covers and fundamental groups. Specifically, we investigate the tetrahedron and the double tetrahedron. The resulting…
