A criterion is given for a type in a finite rank stable theory to be (almost) internal to a given nonmodular minimal type. The motivation comes from results of Campana which give criteria for compact complex analytic spaces to be algebraic…
We give a new approach to the failure of the Canonical Base Property (CBP) in the so far only known counterexample, produced by Hrushovski, Palacin and Pillay. For this purpose, we will give an alternative presentation of the counterexample…
We give an example of a finite rank, in fact aleph-1 categorical theory where the CBP (canonical base property) does not hold. We include a "group-like" example. We also prove, in a finite Morley rank context, if all definable Galois groups…
We introduce a generalization of CM-triviality relative to a fixed invariant collection of partial types, in analogy to the Canonical Base Property defined by Pillay, Ziegler and Chatzidakis which generalizes one-basedness. We show that,…
More than 10 years ago, Dipper, James and Murphy developped the theory of Specht modules for Hecke algebras of type $B\_n$. More recently, using Lusztig's a-function, Geck and Rouquier showed how to obtain parametrisations of the…
We present numerous natural algebraic examples without the so-called Canonical Base Property (CBP). We prove that every commutative unitary ring of finite Morley rank without finite-index proper ideals satisfies the CBP if and only if it is…
In 2012 Raghavan, Samuel, and Subrahmanyam showed that the Kazhdan--Lusztig basis for the Iwahori--Hecke algebra in type A provides a ``canonical'' basis for the centraliser algebra of the Schur algebra acting on tensor space. In 2022 the…
We introduce and study the Congruence Boolean Lifting Property (CBLP) for congruence--distributive universal algebras, as well as a property related to CBLP, which we have called $(\star )$. CBLP extends the so--called Boolean Lifting…
Canonical algebras, introduced by C.M. Ringel in 1984, play an important role in the representation theory of finite dimensional algebras. They are equipped with a large contact surface to many further mathematical subjects like function…
We study notions of genericity in models of $\mathsf{PA}$, inspired by lines of inquiry initiated by Chatzidakis and Pillay and continued by Dolich, Miller and Steinhorn in general model-theoretic contexts. These papers studied the theories…
We use purity, a principle borrowed from the foundations of quantum information, to show that all special symmetric dagger-Frobenius algebras in CPM(fHilb) are canonical, i.e. that they arise by doubling of special symmetric…
We show that any type ${\rm III_1}$ factor with separable predual satisfying Connes' Bicentralizer Property (CBP) has a singular maximal abelian $\ast$-subalgebra that is the range of a normal conditional expectation. We also investigate…
Consider the diagonal action of the special orthogonal group on the direct sum of a finite number of copies of the standard representation--the underlying field is assumed to be algebraically closed and of characteristic not equal to two.…
In this note a natural strengthening of internality motivated by complex geometry, being "Moishezon" to a set of types, is introduced. Under the hypothesis of Pillay's canonical base property, and using results of Chatzidakis, a criterion…
We characterize characteristic polynomials of elements in a central simple algebra. We also give an account for the theory of rational canonical forms for separable linear transformations over a central division algebra, and a description…
Non-n-ampleness as defined by Pillay and Evans is preserved under analysability. Generalizing this to a more general notion of Sigma-ampleness, we obtain an immediate proof for all simple theories of CHatzidakis weak Canonical Base Property…
This is the first of three papers motivated by the author's desire to understand and explain "algebraically" one aspect of Dmitriy Zhuk's proof of the CSP Dichotomy Theorem. In this paper we study abelian congruences in varieties having a…
We give a canonical construction of a balanced big Cohen-Macaulay algebra for a domain of finite type over $\mathbb C$ by taking ultraproducts of absolute integral closures in positive characteristic. This yields a new tight closure…
We try to understand complete types over a somewhat saturated model of a complete first order theory which is dependent (previously called NIP), by "decomposition theorems for such types". Our thesis is that the picture of dependent theory…
We review the highlights of quark mixing, particle-antiparticle mixing, CP violation and rare K- and B-decays in the Standard Model. The top quark discovery, the precise measurement of its mass, the improved knowledge of the couplings…
