We consider maps between commutative groups and their functional degrees. These degrees are defined based on a simple idea -- the functional degree should decrease if a discrete derivative is taken. We show that the maps of finite…

We prove that the irreducible affine Coxeter groups are first-order rigid and deduce from this that they are profinitely rigid in the absolute sense. We then show that the first-order theory of any irreducible affine Coxeter group does not…

We present a formula for the degree of the discriminant of irreducible representations of a Lie group, in terms of the roots of the group and the highest weight of the representation. The proof uses equivariant cohomology techniques,…

In this paper we list all possible degrees of a faithful transitive permutation representation of the group of symmetries of a regular map of types $\{4,4\}$ and $\{3,6\}$ and we give examples of graphs, called CPR-graphs, representing some…

We describe all irreducible conformal subalgebras of Cend_N. The classification of simple and semisimple associative conformal algebras with finite faithful representation follows from this description.

A family of polynomials parameterized by the conjugacy classes of a finite Coxeter group is investigated. These polynomials, together with the character table of the group, determine the associated generic degrees. The polynomials are…

Building on the classification of modules for algebraic groups with finitely many orbits on subspaces, we determine all faithful irreducible modules for simple and maximal-semisimple connected algebraic groups that are orthogonal and have…

An upper bound on degrees of elements of a minimal generating system for invariants of quivers of dimension (2,...,2) is established over a field of arbitrary characteristic and its precision is estimated. The proof is based on the…

A recurring theme in finite group theory is understanding how the structure of a finite group is determined by the arithmetic properties of group invariants. There are results in the literature determining the structure of finite groups…

We prove that the degree $r(2p-3)$ cohomology of any (untwisted) finite group of Lie type over $\mathbb{F}_{p^r}$, with coefficients in characteristic $p$, is nonzero as long as its Coxeter number is at most $p$. We do this by providing a…

Given a finitely presented Graded Commutative Differential Algebra (GCDA), we present a method to compute its minimal model, together with a map that is a quasi-isomorphism up to a given degree. The method works by adding generators one by…

It is proved that the universal degree bound for separating polynomial invariants of a finite abelian group (in non-modular characteristic) is strictly smaller than the universal degree bound for generators of polynomial invariants, unless…

The study of the combinatorics of the modular group and of Coxeter's friezes naturally leads to the investigation of a matrix equation, sometimes referred to as the Conway-Coxeter equation. The solutions of size $n$ of this equation, called…

The following results are proved: The center of any finite index subgroup of an irreducible, infinite, non-affine Coxeter group is trivial; Any finite index subgroup of an irreducible, infinite, non-affine Coxeter group cannot be expressed…

The reflection length of an element of a Coxeter group is the minimal number of conjugates of the standard generators whose product is equal to that element. In this paper we prove the conjecture of McCammond and Petersen that reflection…

For a finite dimensional representation $V$ of a group $G$ over a field $F$, the degree of reductivity $\delta(G,V)$ is the smallest degree $d$ such that every nonzero fixed point $v\in V^{G}\setminus\{0\}$ can be separated from zero by a…

Suppose that G is a linearly reductive group. We study the minimal free resolution of the invariant ring. If G is a finite linearly reductive group, then the ring of invariants is generated in degree at most |G|, the group order. We prove…

This work completes the classification of the imprimitive irreducible modules, over algebraically closed fields of characteristic 0, of the finite quasisimple groups.

We compute all the spin fake degrees for the exceptional Weyl groups, which are by definition the graded multiplicities of the simple modules of a spin Weyl group in its spin coinvariant algebra. The spin fake degrees are all shown to be…

In this work, we classify all finite groups such that for every field extension F of \mathbb{Q}, F is the field of values of at most 3 irreducible characters.
