We classify the centers of the quantized Weyl algebras that are PI and derive explicit formulas for the discriminants of these algebras over a general class of polynomial central subalgebras. Two different approaches to these formulas are…

Let $N$ be a normal subgroup of a finite group $G$. From a result due to Brauer, it can be derived that the character table of $G$ contains square submatrices which are induced by the $G$-conjugacy classes of elements in $N$ and the…

Let $\Bbbk$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 and $H$ a finite-dimensional Hopf algebra over $\Bbbk$ with the dual Chevalley property. In this paper, we show that $\operatorname{gr}^c(H)$ is of tame corepresentation type…

We classify all groups G and all pairs (V,W) of absolutely simple Yetter-Drinfeld modules over G such that the support of the direct sum of V and W generates G, the square of the braiding between V and W is not the identity, and the Nichols…

This paper investigates Y(z)-injective vertex superalgebras. We first establish that two fundamental classes of vertex superalgebras -- simple ones and those admitting a PBW basis -- are Y(z)-injective. We then study actions of Hopf…

In our previous paper math/0502157 we classified a large class of finite-dimensional pointed Hopf algebras up to isomorphism. However the following problem was left open for Hopf algebras of of type $A,D$ or $E_6$, that is whose Cartan…

A Weyl group W is a union of strata (certain subsets which are unions of conjugacy classes) which are the nonempty fibres of a map from W to the set of irreducible representations of W. We give an explicit description of strata in terms of…

We classify closed abelian subgroups of a compact simple Lie group of adjoint type and of type E having centralizer of the same dimension as the dimension of the subgroup and describe Weyl groups of maximal abelian subgroups.

Let G be a classical group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2 and let C be an elliptic conjugacy class in the Weyl group. In a previous paper the first named author associated to C a unipotent conjugacy class \Phi(C) in…

In recent papers we have refined a conjecture of Lehrer and Solomon expressing the character of a finite Coxeter group $W$ acting on the $p$th graded component of its Orlik-Solomon algebra as a sum of characters induced from linear…

For any odd prime $p$ we consider representations of a group of order $p$ in the symplectic group $Sp(p-1,Z[1/n])$ of $(p-1)\times(p-1)$-matrices over the ring $Z[1/n]$, $0\neq n\in N$. We construct a relation between the conjugacy classes…

In a paper by the authors, the associative and the Lie algebras of Weyl type $A[D]=A\otimes F[D]$ were introduced, where $A$ is a commutative associative algebra with an identity element over a field $F$ of any characteristic, and $F[D]$ is…

Order three elements in the exceptional groups of type G2 are classified up to conjugation over arbitrary fields. Their centralizers are computed, and the associated classification of idempotents in symmetric composition algebras is…

We describe an algorithm for classifying the closed subsets of a root system, up to conjugation by the associated Weyl group. Such a classification of an irreducible root system is closely related to the classification of the regular…

We describe an easy way how to find supercharacter theories for a finite group, if its character table is known. Namely, we show how an arbitrary partition of the conjugacy classes or of the irreducible characters can be refined to the…

In this paper, we study the representation theory of Hopf-Ore extensions of group algebras and pointed Hopf algebras of rank one over an arbitrary field $k$. Let $H=kG(\chi, a,\d)$ be a Hopf-Ore extension of $kG$ and $H'$ a rank one…

We give a presentation in terms of generators and relations of Hopf algebras generated by skew-primitive elements and abelian group of group-like elements with action given via characters. This class of pointed Hopf algebras has shown great…

Let G be a simple reductive group over the complex numbers. Let W be the Weyl group of G. We propose a description of the Springer representations of W associated to various unipotent classes of G by a purely algebraic method involving the…

We classify closed abelian subgroups of the automorphism group of any compact classical simple Lie algebra whose centralizer has the same dimension as the dimension of the subgroup, and describe Weyl groups of maximal abelian subgroups.
