Given a finitely generated group G, the set Hom(G,SL_2 C) inherits the structure of an algebraic variety R(G)called the "representation variety" of G. This algebraic variety is an invariant of G. Let G_{pt}=< a, b; a^p= b^t>, where p, t are…

We describe degenerations of three-dimensional Jordan superalgebras over $\mathbb{C}$. In particular, we describe all irreducible components in the corresponding varieties.

Groups preserving a distributive product are encountered often in algebra. Examples include automorphism groups of associative and nonassociative rings, classical groups, and automorphism groups of p-groups. While the great variety of such…

This article presents a formula for products of Schubert classes in the quantum cohomology ring of the Grassmannian. We introduce a generalization of Schur symmetric polynomials for shapes that are naturally embedded in a torus. Then we…

We study the decomposition of central simple algebras of exponent 2 into tensor products of quaternion algebras. We consider in particular decompositions in which one of the quaternion algebras contains a given quadratic extension. Let $B$…

We describe all degenerations of the variety $\mathfrak{Jord}_3$ of Jordan algebras of dimension three over $\mathbb{C}.$ In particular, we describe all irreducible components in $\mathfrak{Jord}_3.$ For every $n$ we define an…

We demonstrate a method for finding the decoherence-subalgebra $\mathcal{N}(\mathcal{T})$ of a Gaussian quantum Markov semigroup on the von Neumann algebra $\mathcal{B}(\Gamma(\mathbb{C}^d))$ of all bounded operator on the Fock space…

We give a family of slice-torus invariants $\tilde{ss}_c$, each defined from the $c$-divisibility of the reduced Lee class in a variant of reduced Khovanov homology, parameterized by prime elements $c$ in any principal ideal domain $R$. For…

Our main goal is to show that the Gelfand--Tsetlin toric degeneration of the type A flag variety can be obtained within a degenerate representation-theoretic framework similar to the theory of PBW degenerations. In fact, we provide such…

For a field $R$ of characteristic $p\ge 0$ and a matrix $c$ in the full $n\times n$ matrix algebra $M_n(R)$ over $R$, let $S_n(c,R)$ be the centralizer algebra of $c$ in $M_n(R)$. We show that $S_n(c,R)$ is a Frobenius-finite,…

The decomposition of tensor products of representations into irreducibles is studied for a continuous family of integrable operator representations of $U_q(sl(2,R)$. It is described by an explicit integral transformation involving a…

Deformations of ordinary varieties of K3 type can be described in terms of displays by recent work of Langer-Zink. We extend this to the general (non-ordinary) case using displays with $G$-structure for a reductive group $G$. As a basis we…

Let $n\geq 2$ and $G_n=\mathbb{Z}^n\rtimes SL_n(\mathbb{Z})$. We classify all $G_n$-invariant von Neumann subalgebras in $L(G_n)$. For $n=2$, this gives an alternative proof of the previous result of Jiang-Liu. For $n\geq 3$, this gives the…

We construct distinguished elements in the embedded contact homology (and monopole Floer homology) of a 3-torus, associated with Lagrangian tori in symplectic 4-manifolds and their isotopy classes. They turn out not to be new invariants,…

We propose a set of 4 recurrence relations whose linear combination gives the number of group invariants, equivalently the dimension of the invariant subspace, in the tensor product of an arbitrary number of adjoint representations of the…

This note extends the Steinberg Tensor product theorem from the Frobenius kernel $G_{(r)}$ to the deformation $\mathcal{U}^{[r]}(\mathfrak{g})$ of its distribution algebra. As a Corollary we proof some conjectures from \cite{Wes}. Further…

We construct a family of flat semitoric degenerations for the Hibi variety of every finite distributive lattice. The irreducible components of each degeneration are the toric varieties associated with polytopes forming a regular subdivision…

von Neumann algebras have been playing an increasingly important role in the context of gauge theories and gravity. The crossed product presents a natural method for implementing constraints through the commutation theorem, rendering it a…

We obtain explicit formulas for the semi-classical twists deforming the coalgebraic structure of U(sl(3)) and U(sl(4)). In rank 2 and 3 the corresponding universal R-matrices quantize the boundary r-matrices of Cremmer-Gervais type defining…

We provide a new large class of countable icc groups $\mathcal A$ for which the product rigidity result from [CdSS15] holds: if $\Gamma_1,\dots,\Gamma_n\in\mathcal A$ and $\Lambda$ is any group such that…
