We classify (possibly non commutative) algebras of low rank over a domain R. We first review results for algebras of rank 2 and for finite-dimensional division algebras over the real numbers. These results motivate us to consider which…
In this paper we describe all group gradings by an arbitrary finite group $G$ on non-simple finite-dimensional superinvolution simple associative superalgebras over an algebraically closed field $F$ of characteristic 0 or coprime to the…
Let $\mathrm{G} = \mathrm{Gl}_{n}(K)$, and $\mathrm{H} = \mathrm{G}^{\sigma}$ for $\sigma$ an involution of the form $g\rightarrow aga^{-1}$, It is known that for $K =\mathbb{Q}_q$ any irreducible representation of $\mathrm{G}$ with an…
The parameter $\sigma(G)$ of a graph $G$ stands for the number of Laplacian eigenvalues greater than or equal to the average degree of $G$. In this work, we address the problem of characterizing those graphs $G$ having $\sigma(G)=1$. Our…
An involution is a bijection that is its own inverse. Given a permutation $\sigma$ of $[n],$ let $\mathsf{invol}(\sigma)$ denote the number of ways $\sigma$ can be expressed as a composition of two involutions of $[n].$ We prove that the…
Given a simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ and an element $\mu\in\mathfrak{g}^*$, the corresponding shift of argument subalgebra of $\text{S}(\mathfrak{g})$ is Poisson commutative. In the case where $\mu$ is regular, this subalgebra is known…
Let $(A,\sigma)$ be a central simple algebra with an orthogonal involution. It is well-known that $O(A,\sigma)$ contains elements of reduced norm $-1$ if and only if the Brauer class of $A$ is trivial. We generalize this statement to…
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a compact, simple Lie algebra of dimension $d$. It is a classical result that the convolution of any $d$ non-trivial, $G$ -invariant, orbital measures is absolutely continuous with respect to Lebesgue measure on…
In the present note we show that the involution in locally C*-algebras is uniquely determined.
We associate an square to any two dimensional evolution algebra. This geometric object is uniquely determined, does not depend on the basis and describes the structure and the behaviour of the algebra. We determine the identities of degrees…
The notion of a valuation on convex bodies is very classical. The notion of a valuation on a class of functions was recently introduced and studied by M. Ludwig and others. We study an explicit relation between continuous valuations on…
An orthogonal involution on a central simple algebra becoming isotropic over any splitting field of the algebra, becomes isotropic over a finite odd degree extension of the base field (provided that the characteristic of the base field is…
Evolution algebras with one dimensional square are classified using the theory of inner product spaces. More precisely, for $A$ an evolution algebra with $\dim(A^2) = 1$ and $a$ a generator of $A^2$, the product of $A$ is given by $xy =…
Convolution of valuations was introduced by the first named author and Fu for linear spaces, and later by Alesker and the first named author for compact Lie groups. In this paper we study the convolution of invariant valuations on Lie…
A Hadwiger-type theorem for the exceptional Lie groups $G_2$ and $Spin(7)$ is proved. The algebras of $G_2$ or $Spin(7)$ invariant, translation invariant continuous valuations are both of dimension 10. Geometrically meaningful bases are…
Let $G$ be a connected reductive $p$-adic group and let $\theta$ be an automorphism of $G$ of order at most two. Suppose $\pi$ is an irreducible smooth representation of $G$ that is taken to its dual by $\theta$. The space $V$ of $\pi$ then…
It this note we investigate the structure of the group of \sigma-unitary units in some noncommutative modular group algebras KG, where \sigma is a non-classical ring involution of KG.
Nonlinear sigma models arise in supergravity theories with or without matter couplings in various dimensions and they are important in understanding the duality symmetries of M-theory. With this motivation in mind, we review the salient…
The starting point of this work is that the class of evolution algebras over a fixed field is closed under tensor product. This arises questions about the inheritance of properties from the tensor product to the factors and conversely. For…
Let $M$ be a compact, connected Riemannian manifold whose Riemannian volume measure is denoted by $\sigma$. Let $f: M \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be a non-constant eigenfunction of the Laplacian. The random wave conjecture suggests that in…
