We study invertible generating pairs of fundamental groups of graph manifolds, that is, pairs of elements (g,h) for which the map g --> g^{-1}, h --> h^{-1} extends to an automorphism. We show in particular that a graph manifold is of…

We give generators for a certain complex hyperbolic braid group. That is, we remove a hyperplane arrangement from complex hyperbolic $13$-space, take the quotient of the remaining space by a discrete group, and find generators for the…

Computation of the extended gcd of two quadratic integers. The ring of integers considered is principal but could be euclidean or not euclidean ring. This method rely on principal ideal ring and reduction of binary quadratic forms.

We introduce one of the most beautiful algebraic varieties known, a quintic hypersurface in projective five-space, which is invariant under the action of the Weyl group of $E_6$. This variety is intricately related with many other moduli…

We define a class of groups constructed from rings equipped with an involution. We show that under suitable conditions, these groups are either algebraic or arithmetic, including as special cases the orientation-preserving isometry group of…

Given a transitive permutation group, a fundamental object for studying its higher transitivity properties is the permutation action of its isotropy subgroup. We reverse this relationship and introduce a universal construction of infinite…

It is shown that the generators of two discrete Heisenberg-Weyl groups with irrational rotation numbers $\theta$ and $-1/ \theta$ generate the whole algebra $\cal B$ of bounded operators on $L_2(\bf R)$. The natural action of the modular…

We investigate the concept of definable, or inner, automorphism in the logical setting of partial Horn theories. The central technical result extends a syntactical characterization of the group of such automorphisms (called the covariant…

We study the Picard groups of moduli spaces in positive characteristics and we give a "$p$-adic" proof that the Picard group of moduli of vector bundles of fixed determinant is isomorphic to the group of integers. Along the way we prove…

A *-product compatible with the comultiplication of the Hopf algebra of the functions on the Heisenberg group is determined by deforming a coboundary Lie-Poisson structure defined by a classical r-matrix satisfying the modified Yang-Baxter…

We study Fourier theory on quantum Euclidean space. A modified version of the general definition of the Fourier transform on a quantum space is used and its inverse is constructed. The Fourier transforms can be defined by their Bochner's…

For an odd prime $p$ and a positive integer $n$, it is well known that there are two types of extra-special $p$-groups of order $p^{2n+1}$, first one is the Heisenberg group which has exponent $p$ and the second one is of exponent $p^2$. In…

We show, at the prime 2, that the Picard group of invertible modules over $E_n^{hC_2}$ is cyclic. Here, $E_n$ is the height $n$ Lubin--Tate spectrum and its $C_2$-action is induced from the formal inverse of its associated formal group law.…

We construct \'etale generalized Heisenberg group covers of hyperelliptic curves over number fields. We use these to produce infinite families of quadratic extensions of cyclotomic fields that admit everywhere unramified generalized…

The main subject of this work is the difference between the coarse moduli space and the stack of hyperelliptic curves. We compute their Picard groups, giving explicit description of the generators. We get an application to the…

We calculate the algebraic $K$-theory of the coordinate ring of a planar cuspidal curve over a regular $\mathbb{F}_p$-algebra, thereby verifying a conjecture due to Hesselholt. In the course of the proof we compute the Picard group of the…

We realize all irreducible unitary representations of the group $\mathrm{SO}_0(n+1,1)$ on explicit Hilbert spaces of vector-valued $L^2$-functions on $\mathbb{R}^n\setminus\{0\}$. The key ingredient in our construction is an explicit…

We determine the rings of invariants in the symmetric algebra on the dual of a vector space V over the field of two elements, for the group G of orthogonal transformations preserving a non-singular quadratic form on V. The invariant ring is…

The concept of a k-translatable groupoid is introduced. Those k-translatable quadratical quasigroups induced by the additive group of integers modulo m, where k<40, are listed for m<1200. The fine structure of quadratical quasigroups is…

We study the recently discovered isomorphisms between hyperbolic Weyl groups and unfamiliar modular groups. These modular groups are defined over integer domains in normed division algebras, and we focus on the cases involving quaternions…
