We consider the variety of pre-Lie algebra structures on a given n-dimensional vector space. The group GL_n(K) acts on it, and we study the closure of the orbits with respect to the Zariski topology. This leads to the definition of pre-Lie…

An algebraic group is called semi-reductive if it is a semi-direct product of a reductive subgroup and the unipotent radical. Such a semi-reductive algebraic group naturally arises and also plays a key role in the study of modular…

Let $G$ be a compact $p$-adic analytic group. We recall the well-understood finite radical $\Delta^+$ and FC-centre $\Delta$, and introduce a $p$-adic analogue of Roseblade's subgroup $\mathrm{nio}(G)$, the unique largest orbitally sound…

We show that a class of algebras is closed under the taking of homomorphic images and direct products if and only if the class consists of all algebras that satisfy a set of (generally simultaneous) equations. For classes of regular…

In this paper we prove a new characterization of the distinguished unipotent orbits of a connected reductive group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. For classical groups we prove the characterization by a combinatorial…

We study the action of a real reductive group $G$ on a Kahler manifold $Z$ which is the restriction of a holomorphic action of a complex reductive Lie group $U^\mathbb{C}.$ We assume that the action of $U$, a maximal compact connected…

In this paper we study the Grassmannian of submodules of a given dimension inside a finitely generated projective module $P$ for a finite dimensional algebra $\Lambda$ over an algebraically closed field. The orbit of such a submodule $C$…

The group $G = GL_r(k) \times (k^\times)^n$ acts on $\mathbf{A}^{r \times n}$, the space of $r$-by-$n$ matrices: $GL_r(k)$ acts by row operations and $(k^\times)^n$ scales columns. A matrix orbit closure is the Zariski closure of a point…

Let $G$ be a reductive group over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic $p$, good for the root system of $G$. The closures of $G$-orbits in the Hilbert nullcone of the coadjoint representation are conical affine Poisson…

In this paper, we construct and classify the special unipotent representations of a real reductive group attached to the principal nilpotent orbit. We give formulas for the $\mathbf{K}$-types, associated varieties, and Langlands parameters…

We calculate the R(G)-algebra structure on the reduced equivariant K-groups of two-dimensional spheres on which a compact Lie group G acts as involutions. In particular, the reduced equivariant K-groups are trivial if G is abelian, which…

Let G be a finite group. An element x in G is a real element if x is conjugate to its inverse in G. For x in G, the conjugacy class x^G is said to be a real conjugacy class if every element of x^G is real. We show that if 4 divides no real…

The article demonstrates the procedure how to compute the Zariski closure of an orbit by an algebraic action of finitely generated group on the affine plane. First half of the algorithm is about deciding whether given finitely generated…

In this paper we initiate the study of racks from the combined perspective of combinatorics and finite group theory. A rack R is a set with a self-distributive binary operation. We study the combinatorics of the partially ordered set {\cal…

Let $ \tilde{G} $ be an algebraic group acting on a variety $ \tilde{L} $, and $ G \subset \tilde{G} $ a subgroup which leaves a subvariety $ L \subset \tilde{L} $ stable. For a $ G $-orbit $ O_G = G u (u \in L) $ in $ L $, we can associate…

We study the quantizations of the algebras of regular functions on nilpotent orbits. We show that such a quantization always exists and is unique if the orbit is birationally rigid. Further we show that, for special birationally rigid…
