A finitely generated module over a commutative noetherian ring of finite Krull dimension can be built from the prime ideals in the singular locus by iteration of three procedures: taking extensions, direct summands, and cosyzygies. In 2003…
We discuss the construction of finite element spaces of differential forms which satisfy the crucial assumptions of the finite element exterior calculus, namely that they can be assembled into subcomplexes of the de Rham complex which admit…
In earlier papers the author studied some classes of equations with Carlitz derivatives for $\mathbb F_q$-linear functions, which are the natural function field counterparts of linear ordinary differential equations. Here we consider…
In this thesis, we develop algorithms similar to the Gaussian elimination algorithm in symplectic and split orthogonal similitude groups. As an application to this algorithm, we compute the spinor norm for split orthogonal groups. Also, we…
We study the quasi-endomorphism ring of infinitely definable subgroups in separably closed fields. Based on the results we obtain, we are able to prove a Mordell-Lang theorem for Drinfeld modules of finite characteristic. Using…
We construct a computable, computably categorical field of infinite transcendence degree over the rational numbers, using the Fermat polynomials and assorted results from algebraic geometry. We also show that this field has an intrinsically…
Let $B$ be a finite dimensional algebra and $A=B[P_0]$ be the one-point extension algebra of $B$ with respect to the finitely generated projective $B$-module $P_0$. The categories of $B$-modules and $A$-modules are related by two adjoint…
We provide explicit series expansions for the exponential and logarithm functions attached to a rank r Drinfeld module that generalize well known formulas for the Carlitz exponential and logarithm. Using these results we obtain a procedure…
In this paper, we study simple cubic fields in the function field setting, and also generalize the notion of a set of exceptional units to cubic function fields, namely the notion of $k$-exceptional units. We give a simple proof that the…
We find for each simple finitary Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ a category $\mathbb{T}_\mathfrak{g}$ of integrable modules in which the tensor product of copies of the natural and conatural modules are injective. The objects in…
Finite fields form an important chapter in abstract algebra, and mathematics in general. We aim to provide a geometric and intuitive model for finite fields, involving algebraic numbers, in order to make them accessible and interesting to a…
We present a uniform methodology for computing with finitely generated matrix groups over any infinite field. As one application, we completely solve the problem of deciding finiteness in this class of groups. We also present an algorithm…
We give a characterization of the sets of objects of the derived category of a block of a finite group algebra (or other symmetric algebra) that occur as the set of images of simple modules under an equivalence of derived categories. We…
In recent years, there has been considerable success in computing Ext-groups of modular representations associated to the general linear group by relating this problem to one of computing Ext-groups in functor categories. In this paper, we…
We continue study of some algebraic varieties (called resultantal varieties) started in a paper of A. Grishkov, D. Logachev "Resultantal varieties related to zeroes of L-functions of Carlitz modules". These varieties are related with the…
We study the class of univariate polynomials $\beta_k(X)$, introduced by Carlitz, with coefficients in the algebraic function field $\mathbb F_q(t)$ over the finite field $\mathbb F_q$ with $q$ elements. It is implicit in the work of…
We prove that the categories of Gelfand-Zeitlin modules of $\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{gl}_n$ and Whittaker modules associated with a semi-simple complex finite-dimensional algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ are extension full in the category of all…
In this paper, we recursively construct explicit elements of provably high order in finite fields. We do this using the recursive formulas developed by Elkies to describe explicit modular towers. In particular, we give two explicit…
For each deconstructible class of modules $\mathcal D$, we prove that the categoricity of $\mathcal D$ in a big cardinal is equivalent to its categoricity in a tail of cardinals. We also prove Shelah's Categoricity Conjecture for $(\mathcal…
We use the Perron-Frobenius Theorem to define, study and, in some sense, classify special simple modules over arbitrary finite dimensional positively based algebras. For group algebras of finite Weyl groups with respect to the…
