In a recent article we introduced a mechanism for producing a presentation of the descent algebra of the symmetric group as a quiver with relations, the mechanism arising from a new construction of the descent algebra as a homomorphic image…

In this paper we continue the study of triangular matrix categories $\mathbf{\Lambda}=\left[ \begin{smallmatrix} \mathcal{T} & 0 \\ M & \mathcal{U} \end{smallmatrix}\right]$ initiated in [21]. First, given an additive category $\mathcal{C}$…

In previous work, based on work of Zwara and Yoshino, we defined and studied degenerations of objects in triangulated categories analogous to degeneration of modules. In triangulated categories it is surprising that the zero object may…

We introduce an algebraic model, based on the determinantal expansion of the product of two matrices, to test combinatorial reductions of set functions. Each term of the determinantal expansion is deformed through a monomial factor in d…

In this paper a method of constructing a semiorthogonal decomposition of the derived category of $G$-equivariant sheaves on a variety $X$ is described, provided that the derived category of sheaves on $X$ admits a semiorthogonal…

To every regular category $\mathcal{A}$ equipped with a degree function $\delta$ one can attach a pseudo-abelian tensor category $\mathcal{T}(\mathcal{A},\delta)$. We show that the generating objects of $\mathcal{T}$ decompose canonically…

Schocker classified the representation type of the descent algebra of type $\mathbb{A}$ over any field of characteristic zero. In an earlier paper, the authors extended this classification for type $\mathbb{A}$ to fields of positive…

We introduce and characterize a particularly tractable class of unital type 1 C*-algebras with bounded dimension of irreducible representations. Algebras in this class are called recursive subhomogeneous algebras, and they have an inductive…

Motivated by the properties of the descent polynomials, which enumerate permutations of $S_n$ with a fixed descent set, we define descent polynomials for labeled rooted trees. We give recursive and explicit formulas for these polynomials…

For any Coxeter system, and any double coset for two standard parabolic subgroups, we introduce a Demazure operator. These operators form a basis for morphism spaces in a category we call the nilCoxeter category, and we also present this…

The descent algebra of the symmetric group, over a field of non-zero characteristic p, is studied. A homomorphism into the algebra of generalised p-modular characters of the symmetric group is defined. This is then used to determine the…

We describe a presentation for the descent algebra of the symmetric group $\sym{n}$ as a quiver with relations. This presentation arises from a new construction of the descent algebra as a homomorphic image of an algebra of forests of…

This is the first in a series of papers in which we study representations of the Brauer category and its allies. We define a general notion of triangular category that abstracts key properties of the triangular decomposition of a semisimple…

We give a construction of triangulated categories as quotients of exact categories where the subclass of objects sent to zero is defined by a triple of functors. This includes the cases of homotopy and stable module categories. These…

The declination is a quantitative method for identifying possible partisan gerrymanders by analyzing vote distributions. In this expository note we explain and motivate the definition of the declination. The minimal computer code required…

For $G$ a reductive group and $T\subset B$ a maximal torus and Borel subgroup, Demazure modules are certain $B$-submodules, indexed by elements of the Weyl group, of the finite irreducible representations of $G$. In order to describe the…

For an arbitrary commutative ring k and t in k, we construct a 2-functor S_t which sends a tensor category to a new tensor category. By applying it to the representation category of a bialgebra we obtain a family of categories which…

We prove a descent result for affine/projective varieties defined over an algebraically closed field. The idea is to work with the reduced Groebner basis of the ideal where the variety vanishes and study it's behaviour under group action…

We prove the conjecture that higher Verlinde categories are geometrically reductive. This is one of the two properties required in order for recent results on algebraic geometry in tensor categories to apply to these categories. We also…

We extend Deligne's notion of determinant functor to tensor triangulated categories. Specifically, to account for the multiexact structure of the tensor, we define a determinant functor on the 2-multicategory of triangulated categories and…
