In this paper the class of Brauer graph algebras is proved to be closed under derived equivalence. For that we use the rank of the maximal torus of the identity component $Out^0(A)$ of the group of outer automorphisms of a symmetric stably…
Let $G$ be a connected split reductive group defined over $\mathbb{Z}$. Let $F$ and $F'$ be two non-Archimedean $m$-close local fields, where $m$ is a positive integer. D.Kazhdan gave an isomorphism between the Hecke algebras ${\rm Kaz}_m^F…
We prove that an iterative derivation $\delta_F$ on a field $F$ can be extended to an iterative derivation $\delta_A$ on a central simple $F-$algebra $A$ if the characteristic of $F$ does not divide the exponent of $A$ in the Brauer group…
In this paper a finite dimensional unital associative algebra is presented, and its group of algebra automorphisms is detailed. The studied algebra can physically be understood as the creation operator algebra in a formal quantum field…
We show how to compute a certain group of equivalence classes of invariant Drinfeld twists on the algebra of a finite group G over a field k of characteristic zero. This group is naturally isomorphic to the second lazy cohomology group of…
Given an algebraic stack with quasiaffine diagonal, we show that each G_m-gerbe comes from a central separable algebra. In other words, Taylor's bigger Brauer group equals the etale cohomology in degree two with coefficients in G_m. This…
Normal affine algebraic varieties in characteristic 0 are uniquely determined (up to isomorphism) by the Lie algebra of derivations of their coordinate ring. This is not true without the hypothesis of normality. But, we show that (in…
Using equivalences of categories we provide isomorphisms between the Brauer groups of different Hopf algebras. As an example, we show that when k is a field of characteristic different from 2 the Brauer groups BC(k,H_4,r_t) for every dual…
We find conditions which ensure that the topological complexity of a closed manifold $M$ with abelian fundamental group is nonmaximal, and see through examples that our conditions are sharp. This generalizes results of Costa and Farber on…
We study triangulated categories which can be modeled by an oriented marked surface $\mathcal{S}$ and a line field $\eta$ on $\mathcal{S}$. This includes bounded derived categories of gentle algebras and -- conjecturally -- all partially…
Suppose $X$ is a torsor under an abelian variety $A$ over a number field. We show that any adelic point of $X$ that is orthogonal to the algebraic Brauer group of $X$ is orthogonal to the whole Brauer group of $X$. We also show that if…
Using an analogy between the Brauer groups in algebra and the Whitehead groups in topology, we first use methods of algebraic K-theory to give a natural definition of Brauer spectra for commutative rings, such that their homotopy groups are…
We compute the sheaf cohomology of a groupoid built from a local homeomorphism of a locally compact space $X$. In particular, we identify the twists over this groupoid, and its Brauer group. Our calculations refine those made by Kumjian,…
For a smooth toric variety X over a field of positive characteristic, a T-equivariant \'{e}tale cover Y \rightarrow T^*X^{(1)} trivializing the sheaf of crystalline differential operators on X is constructed. This trivialization is used to…
Given a complex Hilbert space H, we study the differential geometry of the manifold A of normal algebraic elements in Z=L(H), the algebra of bounded linear operators on H. We represent A as a disjoint union of subsets M of Z and, using the…
Let A be an Azumaya algebra of constant rank n^2 over a Hensel pair (R,I) where R is a semilocal ring with n invertible in R. Then the reduced Whitehead group SK(A) coincides with its reduction SK(A/IA).
Given an Azumaya algebra with involution $(A,\sigma)$ over a commutative ring $R$ and some auxiliary data, we construct an $8$-periodic chain complex involving the Witt groups of $(A,\sigma)$ and other algebras with involution, and prove it…
A hermitian algebra is a unital associative ${\mathbb C}$-algebra endowed with an involution such that the spectra of self-adjoint elements are contained in ${\mathbb R}$. In the case of an algebra ${\mathcal A}$ endowed with a…
In this paper we prove Schur-Weyl duality between the symplectic group and Brauer algebra over an arbitrary infinite field $K$. We show that the natural homomorphism from the Brauer algebra $B_n(-2m)$ to the endomorphism algebra of tensor…
The Grothendieck-Serre conjecture predicts that every generically trivial torsor under a reductive group $G$ over a regular semilocal ring $R$ is trivial. We establish this for unramified $R$ granted that $G^{\mathrm{ad}}$ is totally…
