G. Prasad and A. Rapinchuk asked if two quaternion division F -algebras that have the same subfields are necessarily isomorphic. The answer is known to be "no" for some very large fields. We prove that the answer is "yes" if F is an…
It is known that reflection coefficients for bulk fields of a rational conformal field theory in the presence of an elementary boundary condition can be obtained as representation matrices of irreducible representations of the classifying…
This is the second installment in a series of papers aimed at generalizing symplectic capacities and homologies. We study symmetric versions of symplectic capacities for real symplectic manifolds, and obtain corresponding results for them…
It is proved that for each prime field $GF(p)$, there is an integer $f(p)$ such that a 4-connected matroid has at most $f(p)$ inequivalent representations over $GF(p)$. We also prove a stronger theorem that obtains the same conclusion for…
Let $p$ be a multilinear polynomial in several non-commuting variables with coefficients in an arbitrary field $K$. Kaplansky conjectured that for any $n$, the image of $p$ evaluated on the set $M_n(K)$ of $n$ by $n$ matrices is a vector…
We show that Kaplansky's unit conjecture is true, under the assumption that the underlying field is complex.
This paper highlights three known identities, each of which involves sums over alternating sign matrices. While proofs of all three are known, the only known derivations are as corollaries of difficult results. The simplicity and natural…
We give a simple matrix-based proof of congruence equations modulo a prime $p$ involving sums of binomial coefficients appearing in Pascal's triangle. These equations can be used to construct some groups of exponent $p^n$. These groups, as…
We introduce a wide class of deterministic subsets of primes of zero relative density and we prove Roth's Theorem in these sets, namely, we show that any subset of them with positive relative upper density contains infinitely many…
The main result of this paper is to show that all binomial identities are orderable. This is a natural statement in the combinatorial theory of finite sets, which can also be applied in distributed computing to derive new strong bounds on…
The relation between open topological strings and representation theory of symmetric quivers is explored beyond the original setting of the knot-quiver correspondence. Multiple cover generalizations of the skein relation for boundaries of…
Let A be an abelian variety defined over a number field and of dimension g. When g<3, by the recent work of Sawin, we know the exact (nonzero) value of the density of the set of primes which are ordinary for A. In higher dimension very…
We use the grid consisting of bits of 3^n to motivate the definition of 2-adic numbers. Specifically, we exhibit diagonal stripes in the bits of 3^(2^n), which turn out to be the first in an infinite sequence of such structures. Our…
We introduce dilogarithm identities through a beta integral-based technique that we apply to provide analytic proofs of previously conjectured dilogarithm relations, solving open problems given by both Bytsko and Campbell, and that we…
In this note self-adjoint extensions of symmetric operators are investigated by using the abstract technique of quasi boundary triples and their Weyl functions. The main result is an extension of Theorem 2.6 in [5] which provides sufficient…
Fourteen kinds of triangle singularities with modality one in Arnold's classification list are discussed. We consider which kinds of combinations of rational double points can appear on small deformation fibers of the singularities. We show…
We establish analytically several new identities connecting enumerators of different types of circulant graphs of prime, twice prime and prime-squared orders. In particular, it is shown that the semi-sum of the number of undirected…
Let $A$ be a finite dimensional algebra of finite global dimension over a finite field. In the present paper, we introduce certain elements in Bridgeland's Hall algebra of $A$, and give a multiplication theorem of these elements. In…
Rotations on the 3-dimensional Euclidean vector-space can be represented by real quaternions, as was shown by Hamilton. Introducing complex quaternions allows us to extend the result to elliptic and hyperbolic rotations on the Minkowski…
For line arrangements in P^2 with nice combinatorics (in particular, for those which are nodal away the line at infinity), we prove that the combinatorics contains the same information as the fundamental group together with the meridianal…
