Let $B_n$ (resp. $U_n$, $N_n$) be the set of $n\times n$ nonsingular (resp. unit, nilpotent) upper triangular matrices. We use a novel approach to explore the $B_n$-similarity orbits in $N_n$. The Belitski\u{\i}'s canonical form of $A\in…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group over the complex field $\mathbb C$, $P$ a parabolic subgroup containing $B$ its Borel subgroup, $P'$ its derived group and $\mathfrak m$ the Lie algebra of its nilradical. The nilfibre $\mathscr N$ for…

In this paper we first make and discuss a conjecture concerning Newtonian potentials in Euclidean n space which have all their mass on the unit sphere about the origin, and are normalized to be one at the origin. The conjecture essentially…

To any 2x2-matrix K one assigns a commutative subalgebra B^{K}\subset U(gl_2[t]) called a Bethe algebra. We describe relations between the Bethe algebras, associated with the zero matrix and a nilpotent matrix.

We prove that the nilpotent commuting variety of a reductive Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field of good characteristic is equidimensional. In characteristic zero, this confirms a conjecture of Vladimir Baranovsky. As a…

Hereby we complete the proof of integrability of the Lax systems, based on pseudo-Riemannian coset manifolds G/H^{*}, we recently presented in a previous paper [arXiv:0903.2559]. Supergravity spherically symmetric black hole solutions have…

The subpower membership problem SMP(A) of a finite algebraic structure A asks whether a given partial function from A^k to A can be interpolated by a term operation of A, or not. While this problem can be EXPTIME-complete in general,…

We explicitly characterize when the Milnor number at the origin of a polynomial or power series (over an algebraically closed field k of arbitrary characteristic) is the minimum of all polynomials with the same Newton diagram, which…

We prove that a conical symplectic variety with maximal weight 1 is isomorphic to one of the following: (i) an affine space with the standard symplectic form (ii) a nilpotent orbit closure of a complex semisimple Lie algebra with the…

We study algebraic properties of matrices whose rows are mutual neighbours, and are also neigbours of 0 ("neighbour" in the sense of a certain nilpotency condition). The intended application is in synthetic differential geometry. For a…

Let $k$ be a field and $A\in M_n(k)$ be an $n\times n$ matrix. We denote $C_{M_n(k)}(A) = \{B\in M_n(k) : BA = AB\}$ be its centralizers in $M_n(k)$. The dimension of the space of centralizer was already known by Frobenius. This paper will…

Let $n$ be a maximal nilpotent subalgebra of a complex symmetric Kac-Moody Lie algebra. Lusztig has introduced a basis of U(n) called the semicanonical basis, whose elements can be seen as certain constructible functions on varieties of…

We discuss the action of a subgroup on small nilpotent orbits, and prove a bounded multiplicity property for the restriction of minimal representations of real reductive Lie groups with respect to arbitrary reductive symmetric pairs.

We study the orbits of $G=\mathrm{GL}(V)$ in the enhanced nilpotent cone $V\times\mathcal{N}$, where $\mathcal{N}$ is the variety of nilpotent endomorphisms of $V$. These orbits are parametrized by bipartitions of $n=\dim V$, and we prove…

We propose a nilpotent ${\cal N}=1$ tensor multiplet describing two fields, which are the Goldstino and the axion, the latter being realised in terms of the field strength of a gauge two-form. This supersymmetric multiplet is formulated in…

The Pauli operators (tensor products of Pauli matrices) provide a complete basis of operators on the Hilbert space of N qubits. We prove that the set of 4^N-1 Pauli operators may be partitioned into 2^N+1 distinct subsets, each consisting…

This paper focuses on the biderivations of 4-dimensional nilpotent complex Leibniz algebras. Using the existing classification of these algebras, we develop algorithms to compute derivations, antiderivations, and biderivations as pairs of…

Aspects of three dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ gauge theories with monopole superpotentials and their dualities are investigated. The moduli spaces of a number of such theories are studied using Hilbert series. Moreover, we propose new…

We consider the conjugation-action of an arbitrary upper-block parabolic subgroup of ${\rm GL}_n(\mathbf{C})$, especially of the Borel subgroup $B$ and of the standard unipotent subgroup $U$ of the latter on the nilpotent cone of complex…

We present two methods for computing the rational singular locus of the closure of a nilpotent orbit in a complex semisimple Lie algebra and give a number of interesting examples.
