Let $\cH$ be the one-parameter Hecke algebra associated to a finite Weyl group $W$, defined over a ground ring in which ``bad'' primes for $W$ are invertible. Using deep properties of the Kazhdan--Lusztig basis of $\cH$ and Lusztig's…

The existence of NAFIL loops of every odd order n => 5 is established by construction. These are non-associative finite invertible loops that are simple and power-associative and they form an infinite family. The first member of this family…

We prove that the q-Schur algebras of finite type introduced in [LW22] are cellular in the sense of Graham and Lehrer, which is a generalization of Geck's theorem on the cellularity of Hecke algebras of finite type. Moreover, we study…

We examine the relationship between finitely and infinitely generated relatively hyperbolic groups, in two different contexts. First, we elaborate on a remark from math.GR/0601311, which states that the version of Dehn filling in relatively…

We introduce super-analogues of the Schur functors defined by Akin, Buchsbaum and Weyman. These {\em Schur superfunctors} may be viewed as characteristic-free analogues of the finite dimensional atypical irreducible modules over the Lie…

Comments about the paper by Elsholz, Fermat's last theorem implies Euclid's infinitude of primes, (2021), and simplification.

Schunck classes, saturated formations and projectors were originally defined for finite soluble groups for which they provided families of intravariant subgroups. In this paper, I set out the analogous theory for finite-dimensional soluble…

We consider the class of finitely generated groups which have a normal form computable in logspace. We prove that the class of such groups is closed under finite extensions, finite index subgroups, direct products, wreath products, and also…

We study a skew product transformation associated to an irrational rotation of the circle [0,1]/~. This skew product keeps track of the number of times an orbit of the rotation lands in the two complementary intervals of {0,1/2} in the…

Let $Q$ be a conjugacy closed loop, and $N(Q)$ its nucleus. Then $Z(N(Q))$ contains all associators of elements of $Q$. If in addition $Q$ is diassociative (i.e., an extra loop), then all these associators have order 2. If $Q$ is…

We prove that the quotient of the group algebra of the braid group on 5 strands by a generic cubic relation has finite rank. This was conjectured in 1998 by Brou\'e, Malle and Rouquier and has for consequence that this algebra is a flat…

We give results on when a finitely generated group has only indiscrete embeddings in SL(2,C), with particular reference to 3-manifold groups. For instance if we glue two copies of the figure 8 knot along its torus boundary then the…

Recently Terwilliger and the present author found a presentation for the three-point $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ loop algebra via generators and relations. To obtain this presentation we defined a Lie algebra $\boxtimes$ by generators and relations…

We study PBW bases of the untwisted quantum loop group $U_q(L\mathfrak{g})$ (in the Drinfeld new presentation) using the combinatorics of loop words, by generalizing the treatment of [29,30,43] in the finite type case. As an application, we…

We investigate Moufang loops which can be written as the semidirect product of a loop and a group. We also examine a particular class of loop extensions which arise as a result of a finite cyclic group acting as a group of semiautomorphisms…

In [11] we showed that a loop in a simply connected compact Lie group $\dot{U}$ has a unique Birkhoff (or triangular) factorization if and only if the loop has a unique root subgroup factorization (relative to a choice of a reduced sequence…

Let $K$ be a number field with ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_K$. We describe and classify finite, flat, and linearly reductive subgroup schemes of $\mathrm{SL}_2$ over $\mathrm{Spec}\:\mathcal{O}_K$. We also establish finiteness results for…

We introduce an operator on problems in Weihrauch complexity, which we call the inverse limit, and which corresponds to an infinite compositional product. This operation arises naturally whenever one implements algorithms that produce a…

In this paper we describe how to explicitly construct infinitely many finite simple groups as characteristic quotients of the rank 2 free group $F_2$. This shows that a "baby" version of the Wiegold conjecture fails for $F_2$, and provides…

We consider a countably generated and uniformly closed algebra of bounded functions. We assume that there is a lower semicontinuous, with respect to the supremum norm, quadratic form and that normal contractions operate in a certain sense.…
