Let $C$ be a smooth, projective and geometrically connected curve defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q(C)$. Given a semisimple $C-S$-group scheme $\underline{G}$ where $S$ is a finite set of closed points of $C$, we describe the set of…

This paper introduces and studies a class of Weyl-type algebras \(A_{p,t,\cA} = \Weyl{e^{\pm x^{p} e^{t x}},\; e^{\cA x},\; x^{\cA}}\) constructed over exponential-polynomial rings, where \(\FF\) is a field of characteristic zero, \(\cA\)…

Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p\geqslant 0$ and let $W$ be a finite-dimensional $K$-space of dimension greater than or equal to $5.$ In this paper, we give the structure of certain Weyl modules for…

Let $G$ be a compact, simply connected Lie group. If $\mathcal{C}_1,\mathcal{C}_2$ are two $G$-conjugacy classes, then the set of elements in $G$ that can be written as products $g=g_1g_2$ of elements $g_i\in \mathcal{C}_i$ is invariant…

In [14] we introduced a new class of algebras, which we named \textit{quantum generalized Heisenberg algebras} and which depend on a parameter $q$ and two polynomials $f,g$. We have shown that this class includes all generalized Heisenberg…

This article discusses the twisted adjoint action $\mathrm{Ad}_{g}^{\kappa}:G\rightarrow G$, $x\mapsto gx\kappa(g^{-1})$ given by a Dynkin diagram automorphism $\kappa\in\mathrm{Aut}(G)$, where $G$ is compact, connected, simply connected…

A finite-dimensional algebra $A$ over an algebraically closed field $K$ is called periodic if it is periodic under the action of the syzygy operator in the category of $A-A-$ bimodules. The periodic algebras are self-injective and occur…

It is well-known that an element of the linear group ${\rm GL}_n(\C)$ is semisimple if and only if its conjugacy class is Zariski closed. The aim of this paper is to show that the same result holds for the group of complex plane polynomial…

We explain a connection between the algebraic and geometric properties of groups of contact transformations, open book decompositions, and flexible Legendrian embeddings. The main result is that, if a closed contact manifold $(V, \xi)$ has…

A monomial algebra B is defined as a quotient of a polynomial ring by a monomial ideal, which is an ideal generated by a finite set of monomials. In this paper, we determine the automorphism group of a monomial algebra B, under the…

We construct two associative algebras from a vertex operator algebra $V$ and a general automorphism $g$ of $V$. The first, called $g$-twisted zero-mode algebra, is a subquotient of what we call $g$-twisted universal enveloping algebra of…

We prove the following generalization of the classical Shephard-Todd-Chevalley Theorem. Let $G$ be a finite group of graded algebra automorphisms of a skew polynomial ring $A:=k_{p_{ij}}[x_1,...,x_n]$. Then the fixed subring $A^G$ has…

Let $V$ be a vertex operator algebra and $g$ an automorphism of finite order. We construct an associative algebra $A_g(V)$ and a pair of functors between the category of $A_g(V)$-modules and a certain category of admissible $g$-twisted…

Quantum double construction, originally due to Drinfeld and has been since generalized even to the operator algebra framework, is naturally associated with a certain (quasitriangular) $R$-matrix ${\mathcal R}$. It turns out that ${\mathcal…

In this paper we develop a formalism for working with twisted realizations of vertex and conformal algebras. As an example, we study realizations of conformal algebras by twisted formal power series. The main application of our technique is…

If $\phi$ is an automorphism of a group $G$ and $x,y\in G$, we say that $x$ and $y$ are $\phi$-twisted conjugates if there exists an $z\in G$ such that $y=z.x.\phi(z^{-1})$. This is an equivalence relation. If there are infinitely many…

Automorphisms of the quantum Schubert cell algebras ${\mathcal U}_q^\pm[w]$ of De Concini, Kac, Procesi and Lusztig and their restrictions to some key invariant subalgebras are studied. We develop some general rigidity results and apply…

Let $G$ be a finitely generated polyfree group. If $G$ has nonzero Euler characteristic then we show that $Aut(G)$ has a finite index subgroup in which every automorphism has infinite Reidemeister number. For certain $G$ of length 2, we…

Let G < SL(V) be a finite group, V is finite dimensional over a field F, p=char F and S(V) is the symmetric algebra of V. We determine when the subring of G-invariants S(V)^G is a polynomial ring. As a consequence, we classify, if F is…

We study the ring of characteristic classes with values in the Chow ring for principal $G$-bundles over schemes. If we consider bundles which are locally trivial in the Zariski topology, then we show, for $G$ reductive, that this ring is…
