A semiring generalises the notion of a ring, replacing the additive abelian group structure with that of a commutative monoid. In this paper, we study a notion positioned between a ring and a semiring -- a semiring whose additive monoid is…
We initiate a study of the rings of invariants of modular representations of elementary abelian p-groups. With a few notable exceptions, the modular representation theory of an elementary abelian p-group is wild. However, for a given…
We discuss what it means for a symmetric monoidal category to be a module over a commutative semiring category. Each of the categories of (1) cartesian monoidal categories, (2) semiadditive categories, and (3) connective spectra can be…
A higher level analog of Weyl modules over multi-variable currents is proposed. It is shown that the sum of their dual spaces form a commutative algebra. The structure of these modules and the geometry of the projective spectrum of this…
The space of elliptic modular forms of fixed weight and level can be identfied with a space of intertwining operators, from a holomorphic discrete series representation of SL2(R) to a space of automorphic forms. Moreover, multiplying…
We exhibit an extension of the category of class two nilpotent groups. It has the same objects but, unlike the latter, its morphisms are closed under pointwise addition of maps. At the same time the class of its morphisms is much smaller…
Let $K$ be any field and $x = (x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_n)$. We classify all matrices $M \in {\rm Mat}_{m,n}(K[x])$ whose entries are polynomials of degree at most 1, for which ${\rm rk} M \le 2$. As a special case, we describe all such matrices…
We define a map from the set of conjugacy classes of a Weyl group W to the representation ring of W tensored with the ring of polynomials in one variable.
Let $\Sigma_r$ be the symmetric group acting on $r$ letters, $K$ be a field of characteristic 2 and $\lambda$ and $\mu$ be partitions of $r$ in at most two parts. Denote the permutation module corresponding to the Young subgroup…
Given a ring $R$, we study the bimodules $M$ for which the trivial extension $R\propto M$ is morphic. We obtain a complete characterization in the case where $R$ is left perfect, and we prove that $R\propto Q/R$ is morphic when $R$ is a…
Let $N$ be a minimax nilpotent torsion-free normal subgroup of a soluble group $G$ of finite rank, $R$ be a finitely generated commutative domain and $R*N$ be a crossed product of $R$ and $N$. In the paper we construct a correspondence…
We identify the representations $\mathbb{K}[X^k, X^{k-1}Y, \dots, Y^k]$ among abstract $\mathbb{Z}[\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{K})]$-modules. One result is on $\mathbb{Q}[\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})]$-modules of short nilpotence length and…
Let O be a complete discrete valuation domain with finite residue field. In this paper we describe the irreducible representations of the groups Aut(M) for any finite O-module M of rank two. The main emphasis is on the interaction between…
In analogy with the Barbasch-Vogan duality for real reductive linear groups, we introduce a duality notion useful for the representation theory of the real metaplectic groups. This is a map on the set of nilpotent orbits in a complex…
In this paper we study the category of graded modules for the current algebra associated to $\mathfrak{sl}_2$. The category enjoys many nice properties, including a tilting theory which was established in previous work of the authors. We…
Let $X$ be a set of $4$ generic points in $\mathbb{P}^2$ with homogeneous coordinate ring $R$. We classify indecomposable graded MCM modules over $R$ by reducing the classification to the Four Subspace problem solved by Nazarova and…
We consider the problem of characterizing upper-triangular matrices $M=\begin{pmatrix}p&r\\0&q\end{pmatrix}\in M_2(\mathbb Z)$ which can be represented in the form $A^2-B^2$ with upper-triangular integer matrices $A$ and $B$ and give a…
Let $(\FormR)$ be a form ring such that $A$ is quasi-finite $R$-algebra (i.e., a direct limit of module finite algebras) with identity. We consider the hyperbolic Bak's unitary groups $\GU(2n,\FormR)$, $n\ge 3$. For a form ideal…
Principal affine open subsets in affine schemes are an important tool in the foundations of algebraic geometry. Given a commutative ring $R$, $\,R$-modules built from the rings of functions on principal affine open subschemes in…
We review some recent advances in modular representation theory of symmetric groups and related Hecke algebras. We discuss connections with Khovanov-Lauda-Rouquier algebras and gradings on the blocks of the group algebras $F\Sigma_n$, which…
