This paper shows that divisible abelian torsion groups are realizable as Brauer groups of quasilocal fields. It describes the isomorphism classes of Brauer groups of primarily quasilocal fields and solves the analogous problem concerning…
We study the decomposition of a generic element $g \in G$ of a connected reductive complex algebraic group $G$ in the form $g = N(g) B(g) \bar{u} N(g)^{-1}$ where $N: G \dashrightarrow \mathcal{N}_-$ and $B : G \dashrightarrow…
We provide identities of inverse Chevalley type for the graded characters of level-zero Demazure submodules of extremal weight modules over a quantum affine algebra of type $C$. These identities express the product $e^{\mu} \, \mathrm{gch}…
The idea that the cohomology of finite groups might be fruitfully approached via the cohomology of ambient semisimple algebraic groups was first shown to be viable in the papers [CPS75] and [CPSvdK77]. The second paper introduced, through a…
Let W be a finite reflection group acting orthogonally on R^n, P be the Chevalley polynomial mapping determined by an integrity basis of the algebra of W-invariant polynomials, and h be the highest degree of the coordinate polynomials in…
Let $G$ be a finite group, $N$ a nilpotent normal subgroup of $G$ and let $\mathrm{V}(\mathbb{\Z} G, N)$ denote the group formed by the units of the integral group ring $\mathbb{\Z} G$ of $G$ which map to the identity under the natural…
Leo Creedon and Kieran Hughes in [18] studied derivations of a group ring $RG$ (of a group $G$ over a commutative unital ring $R$) in terms of generators and relators of group $G$. In this article, we do that for $(\sigma,…
We point out that type I string theory in the presence of internal magnetic fields provides a concrete realization of split supersymmetry. To lowest order, gauginos are massless while squarks and sleptons are superheavy. We build such…
We show that for a reductive group $G$ over a field $k$ the $\mathbb{A}^1$-Euler characteristic of the variety of maximal tori in $G$ is an invertible element of the Grothendieck-Witt ring $\mathrm{GW}(k)$, settling the weak form of a…
Let $G$ be a compact Lie group. We prove that if $V$ and $W$ are orthogonal $G$-representations such that $V^G=W^G=\{0\}$, then a $G$-equivariant map $S(V) \to S(W)$ exists provided that $\dim V^H \leq \dim W^H$ for any closed subgroup…
The local $SL(2N,C)$ symmetry is shown to provide, when appropriately constrained, a viable framework for a consistent unification of the known elementary forces, including gravity. Such a covariant constraint implies that an actual gauge…
We prove that an element from the Chevalley group of type $E_6$ or $E_7$ over a polynomial ring with coefficients in a small-dimensional ring can be reduced to an element of certain proper subsystem subgroup by a bounded number of…
In 2011, Guralnick and Tiep proved that if $G$ was a Chevalley group with Borel subgroup $B$ and $V$ an irreducible $G$-module in cross characteristic with $V^B = 0$, then the the dimension of $H^1(G,V)$ is determined by the structure of…
In this article, we study twisted derivations of cyclic group rings. Let $R$ be a commutative ring with unity, $G$ be a finite cyclic group, and ($\sigma, \tau$) be a pair of $R$-algebra endomorphisms of the group algebra $RG$, which are…
To a maximal torus in a quasi-split semi-simple simply-connected group over a local field of characteristic 0, Langlands and Shelstad construct a cohomological invariant called the splitting invariant, which is an important component of…
In this paper we study the extension of Painlev\'e/gauge theory correspondence to circular quivers by focusing on the special case of $SU(2)$ $\mathcal{N}=2^*$ theory. We show that the Nekrasov-Okounkov partition function of this gauge…
Using a combinatorial approach which avoids geometry, this paper studies the ring structure of K_T(G/B), the T-equivariant K-theory of the (generalized) flag variety G/B. Here the data is a complex reductive algebraic group (or…
In the present paper we prove a weak form of sandwich classification for the overgroups of the subsystem subgroup $E(\Delta,R)$ of the Chevalley group $G(\Phi,R)$ where $\Phi$ is a simply laced root sysetem and $\Delta$ is its sufficiently…
We prove a reduced version of the Chevalley restriction conjecture on the commuting scheme posed by T.H. Chen and B.C. Ng\^o, extending the results of Hunziker for classical groups. In particular, we prove that for any connected reductive…
Isotropic odd unitary groups generalize Chevalley groups of classical types over commutative rings and their twisted forms. Such groups have root subgroups parameterized by a root system $\mathsf{BC}_\ell$ and may be constructed by…
