Green and Schroll give an easy criterion for a monomial algebra $A$ to be quasi-hereditary with respect to some partial order $\leq_A$. A natural follow-up question is under which conditions a monomial quasi-hereditary algebra $(A, \leq_A)$…

Denote by PSelf(X) (resp., Self(X)) the partial (resp., full) transformation monoid over a set X, and by Sub(V) (resp., End(V)) the collection of all subspaces (resp., endomorphisms) of a vector space V. We prove various results that imply…

We study Lie algebras generated by extremal elements (i.e., elements spanning inner ideals of L) over a field of characteristic distinct from 2. We prove that any Lie algebra generated by a finite number of extremal elements is finite…

We prove surjectivity of certain word maps on finite non-abelian simple groups. More precisely, we prove the following: if N is a product of two prime powers, then the word map sending (x,y) to the product of the Nth powers of x and y is…

In this manuscript we consider the extent to which an irreducible representation for a reductive Lie group can be realized as the sheaf cohomolgy of an equivariant holomorphic line bundle defined on an open invariant submanifold of a…

Let A be an associative complex algebra and L an invariant linear functional on it (trace). Let i be an involutive antiautomorphism of A such that L(i(a))=L(a) for any a in A. Then A admits a symmetric invariant bilinear form (a, b)=L(a…

Let $G$ be a finite group. There is a standard theorem on the classification of $G$-equivariant finite dimensional simple commutative, associative, and Lie algebras (i.e., simple algebras of these types in the category of representations of…

We propose an algebraic geometry framework for the Kakeya problem. We conjecture that for any polynomials $f,g\in\F_{q_0}[x,y]$ and any $\F_q/\F_{q_0}$, the image of the map $\F_q^3\to\F_q^3$ given by $(s,x,y)\mapsto…

In this paper we prove that a multiplicative quadratic map between a unital ring $K$ and a field $L$ is induced by a homomorphism from $K$ into $L$ or a composition algebra over $L$. Especially we show that if $K$ is a field, then every…

An analogue of Serre's theorem is established for finite dimensional simple Lie superalgebras, which describes presentations in terms of Chevalley generators and Serre type relations relative to all possible choices of Borel subalgebras.…

The central objective of this article is to provide an elementary proof of the following theorem, of which we are unaware of any trace in the existing literature. If $B$ is a net finite free algebra over a commutative ring $A$, then it is…
