A central extension of the loop group of a Lie group is called transgressive, if it corresponds under transgression to a degree four class in the cohomology of the classifying space of the Lie group. Transgressive loop group extensions are…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field of odd characteristic and $2\nu+\delta\geq2$ an integer number with $\delta=0,1$ or $2$. The orthogonal inner product graph $Oi\big(2\nu+\delta,q\big)$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$ is defined and the automorphism…

We reduce certain proofs in math.RA/0108067, math.RA/0408155, and math.QA/0409589 to depth two quasibases from one side only, a minimalistic approach which leads to a characterization of Galois extensions for finite projective bialgebroids…

We prove a structure theorem for multiplicative functions which states that an arbitrary bounded multiplicative function can be decomposed into two terms, one that is approximately periodic and another that has small Gowers uniformity norm…

We explicitly construct a dynamically incoherent partially hyperbolic endomorphisms of $\mathbb{T}^2$ in the homotopy class of any linear expanding map with integer eigenvalues. These examples exhibit branching of centre curves along…

Any non-degenerate quadratic form over a Hilbertian field (e.g., a number field) is isomorphic to a scaled trace form. In this work we extend this result to more general fields. In particular, prosolvable and prime-to-p extensions of a…

It is proved that the derivation algebra of a centerless perfect Lie algebra of arbitrary dimension over any field of arbitrary characteristic is complete and that the holomorph of a centerless perfect Lie algebra is complete if and only if…

Let $G$ be a semi-simple algebraic group over a perfect field $k$. A lot of progress has been made recently in computing the Chow motives of projective $G$-homogenous varieties. When $k$ has positive characteristic, a broader class of…

We introduce the simple extension complexity of a polytope P as the smallest number of facets of any simple (i.e., non-degenerate in the sense of linear programming) polytope which can be projected onto P. We devise a combinatorial method…

In this paper we classify, up to isomorphism, the superinvolutions on algebras of upper block-triangular matrices over an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from $2$.

We study the structure of the algebra of polynomial invariants for the usual conjugation action of the complex special, SO_n, and general, O_n, orthogonal group on the space of traceless n by n complex matrices. (Note that these two…

We show for a coring which is finitely generated projective as a left module that the Cartier cohomology is isomorphic to the relative Hochschild cohomology of the right algebra. Furthermore, we show that this isomorphism lifts to the level…

In this note we are going to consider a smooth projective surface equipped with an involution and study the action of the involution at the level of Chow group of zero cycles.

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 =…

Let $k$ be a field containing an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. If $G$ is a finite group and $D$ is a division algebra over $k$, finite dimensional over its center, we can associate to a faithful $G$-grading on $D$ a…

We show that an everywhere regular foliation $\mathcal F$ with compact canonically polarized leaves on a quasi-projective manifold $X$ has isotrivial family of leaves when the orbifold base of this family is special. By a recent work of…

We use Galois descent to construct central extensions of twisted forms of split simple Lie algebras over rings. These types of algebras arise naturally in the construction of Extended Affine Lie Algebras. The construction also gives…

This paper presents an adaptation of recently developed algorithms for quadratic forms over number fields in arXiv:1304.0708 to global function fields of odd characteristics. First, we present algorithm for checking if a given…

Using properties of the Frobenius eigenvalues, we show that, in a precise sense, ``most'' isomorphism classes of (principally polarized) simple abelian varieties over a finite field are characterized up to isogeny by the sequence of their…

Okubo algebras form an important class of nonunital composition algebras of dimension 8. Contrary to what happens for unital composition algebras, they are not determined by their multiplicative norms. Okubo algebras with isotropic norm are…
