We consider the orbits of the group $G=PGL_2(q)$ on the points, lines and planes of the projective space $PG(3,q)$ over a finite field $\mathbb F_q$ of characteristic different from $2$ and $3$. The points of $PG(3,q)$ can be identified…

For any conjugacy class C in G=PSL(2,q) we compute C^2 and discuss whether C contains a triple of elements whose product is 1 which generate G. Moreover, we determine which elements in G can be written as a product of two conjugate elements…

Let $r \geq 2$ be an integer, and let $a$ be an integer coprime to $r$. We show that if $c_2 \geq n + \left\lfloor \frac{r-1}{2r}a^2 + \frac{1}{2}(r^2 + 1) \right\rfloor$, then the $2n$th Betti number of the moduli space…

In the present work we investigate the existence and stability properties of q-balls which consist of a couple of scalar fields, forming an SU(2) doublet in a Lagrangian with a global SU(2) symmetry. We find that these spinors can form a…

A phenomenon of classical quantization is discussed. This is revealed in the class of pseudoclassical gauge systems with nonlinear nilpotent constraints containing some free parameters. Variation of parameters does not change local (gauge)…

Consider a family of planar polynomial systems $\dot x = y^{2l-1} - x^{2k+1}, \dot y =-x +m y^{2s+1},$ where $l,k,s\in\mathbb{N^*},$ $2\le l \le 2s$ and $m\in\mathbb{R}.$ We study the center-focus problem on its origin which is a monodromic…

Let G=SU(2,1). In this paper we parametrize irreducible unitary (g,K) modules of G. The parametrization is done in two steps. Firstly, we parametrize irreducible (g,K) modules (Theorem 3). In the second step we find unitary (g,K) modules…

Donaldson proved that if a polarized manifold $(V,L)$ has constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metrics in $c_1(L)$ and its automorphism group Aut$(M,L)$ is discrete, $(V,L)$ is asymptotically Chow stable. In this paper, we shall show an…

We define centrally large subalgebras of simple unital C*-algebras, strengthening the definition of large subalgebras in previous work. We prove that if A is any infinite dimensional simple separable unital C*-algebra which contains a…

For smooth projective 3-folds of general type, we prove that the relative canonical stability $\mu_s(3)\leq 8$. This is induced from our improved result of Koll\'ar: the m-canonical map of a smooth projective 3-fold of general type is…

We construct a class of closed timelike curves (CTCs) using a compactified extra dimension $u$. A nonzero metric element $g_{tu}(u)$ enables particles to travel backwards in global time $t$. The compactified dimension guarantees that the…

This is the second of two papers treating faithful actions of simple algebraic groups on irreducible modules and on the associated Grassmannian varieties; in the first paper we considered the module itself and its projective space, while…

For an anisotropic euclidean $\phi^4$-theory with two interactions $[u (\sum_{i=1^M {\phi}_i^2)^2+v \sum_{i=1}^M \phi_i^4]$ the $\beta$-functions are calculated from five-loop perturbation expansions in $d=4-\varepsilon$ dimensions, using…

We provide classification results for translation generalized quadrangles of order less or equal to $64$, and hence, for all incidence geometries related to them. The results consist of the classification of all pseudo-ovals in…

We prove that the moduli space of double covers ramified at two points $\mathcal{R}_{g,2}$ is uniruled for $3\leq g\leq 6$ and of general type for $g\geq 16$. Furthermore, we consider Prym-canonical divisorial strata in the moduli space…

We discuss criteria for a stable map of genus two and degree $4$ to the projective plane to be smoothable, as an application of our modular desingularisation of $\overline{\mathcal M}_{2,n}(\mathbb{P}^r,d)^{\text{main}}$ via logarithmic…

When $\mathcal D$ is strongly self-absorbing we say an inclusion $B \subseteq A$ is $\mathcal D$-stable if it is isomorphic to the inclusion $B \otimes \mathcal D \subseteq A \otimes \mathcal D$. We give ultrapower characterizations and…

We study pencils of plane cubics with only one base point and general member smooth, giving a complete classification. Under the additional hypothesis that all members are irreducible, we prove that there exists a unique non-isotrivial…

We investigate the integrable Yang-Baxter deformation of the 2d Principal Chiral Model with a Wess-Zumino term. For arbitrary groups, the one-loop beta functions are calculated and display a surprising connection between classical and…

We give a compact, frame-independent characterization of the set of classical second-order moments for a single spin-1 particle. Defining the moment matrix M = 2Q + (1/3) I, we show that a moment pair (s, Q) arises from a positive mixture…
