Let $T$ be a torus acting on $\CC^n$ in such a way that, for all $1\leq k\leq n$, the induced action on the grassmannian $G(k,n)$ has only isolated fixed points. This paper proposes a natural, elementary, explicit description of the…

Suppose $R$ is a commutative ring with identity and a fixed invertible element $q^{\frac{1}{2}}$ such that $q+q^{-1}$ is invertible. For an oriented surface $\Sigma$, let $\mathcal{S}(\Sigma;R)$ denote the Kauffman bracket skein algebra of…

Let G=SU(2) and let \Omega G denote the space of continuous based loops in G, equipped with the pointwise conjugation action of G. It is a classical fact in topology that the ordinary cohomology H^*(\Omega G) is a divided polynomial algebra…

Given a linear group G over a field k, we define a notion of index and residue of an element g of G(k((t)). This provides an alternative proof of Gabber's theorem stating that G has no subgroups isomorphic to the additive or the commutative…

In this paper we extend the idea of integration to generic algebras. In particular we concentrate over a class of algebras, that we will call self-conjugated, having the property of possessing equivalent right and left multiplication…

The Isomorphism Conjecture is a conceptional approach towards a calculation of the algebraic K-theory of a group ring RG, where G is an infinite group. In this paper we prove the conjecture in dimensions n<2 for fundamental groups of closed…

Let R be a commutative ring with unity, M a module over R and let S be a G-set for a finite group G. We define a set MS to be the set of elements expressed as the formal finite sum of the form similar to the elements of group ring RG. The…

The universal enveloping algebra of any simple Lie algebra g contains a family of commutative subalgebras, called the quantum shift of argument subalgebras math.RT/0606380, math.QA/0612798. We prove that generically their action on…

In this article we describe the $G\times G$-equivariant $K$-ring of $X$, where $X$ is a regular compactification of a connected complex reductive algebraic group $G$. Furthermore, in the case when $G$ is a semisimple group of adjoint type,…

For any finite abelian group $G$ and commutative unitary ring $R$, by $R[G]$ we denote the group algebra over $R$. Let $T=(g_1,\ldots,g_{\ell})$ be a sequence over the group $G$. We say $T$ is algebraically zero-sum free over R if…

Regular algebraic $K$-theory for groups is a homology theory for discrete groups closely connected (but different from) group homology. It also gives a version of algebraic $K$-theory for rings by the simple functorial mapping assigning to…

If $G$ is a finite group, the Grothendieck group ${\mathbf{K}}\_G(G)$ of the category of $G$-equivariant ${\mathbb{C}}$-vector bundles on $G$ (for the action of $G$ on itself by conjugation) is endowed with a structure of (commutative)…

We begin a study of torsion theories for representations of an important class of associative algebras over a field which includes all finite W-algebras of type A, in particular the universal enveloping algebra of gl(n) (or sl(n)) for all…

Given an ample, Hausdorff groupoid $\mathcal{G}$, and a unital commutative ring $R$, we consider the Steinberg algebra $A_R(\mathcal {G})$. First we prove a uniqueness theorem for this algebra and then, when $\mathcal{G}$ is graded by a…

Let k be a separably closed field. Let G be a reductive algebraic k-group. In this paper, we study Serre's notion of complete reducibility of subgroups of G over k. In particular, using the recently proved center conjecture of Tits, we show…

We introduce the notion of a graded integral element, prove the counterpart of the lying-over theorem on commutative algebra in the context of left commutative rngs, and use the Hu-Liu product to select a class of noncommutative rings.

In the present paper we develop a small cancellation theory for associative algebras with a basis of invertible elements. Namely, we study quotients of a group algebra of a free group and introduce three axioms for the corresponding…

Let the finite group $G$ act linearly on the vector space $V$ over the field $k$ of arbitrary characteristic. If $H<G$ is a subgroup the extension of invariant rings $k[V]^G\subset k[V]^H$ is studied using modules of covariants. An example…
