This is a continuation of our work to understand vertex operator algebras using the geometric properties of varieties attached to vertex operator algebras. For a class of vertex operator algebras including affine vertex operator algebras…

We classify generic coadjoint orbits for symplectomorphism groups of compact symplectic surfaces with or without boundary. We also classify simple Morse functions on such surfaces up to a symplectomorphism.

We introduce a category of dual pairs of finite locally free algebras over a ring. This gives an efficient way to represent finite locally free commutative group schemes. We give a number of algorithms to compute with dual pairs of…

Two semisimple algebraic groups of the same type are said to be motivic equivalent if the motives of the associated projective homogeneous varieties of the same type are isomorphic. We give general criteria of motivic equivalence in terms…

We study the structure of the family of numerical semigroups with fixed multiplicity and Frobenius number. We give an algorithmic method to compute all the semigroups in this family. As an application we compute the set of all numerical…

In this paper, we enumerate the number of oriented rational knots and the number of oriented rational links with any given crossing number and minimum genus. This allows us to obtain a precise formula for the average minimal genus of…

In this paper we find a representative of each orbit of the adjoint action of a real affine classical group of its Lie algebra. These orbits are not determined by the usual Jordan invariants of eigenvalues and block sizes, but require a…

Let n_g denote the number of numerical semigroups of genus g. Bras-Amoros conjectured that n_g possesses certain Fibonacci-like properties. Almost all previous attempts at proving this conjecture were based on analyzing the semigroup tree.…

We classify group gradings on the simple Lie algebra $L$ of type $D_4$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from 2: fine gradings up to equivalence and $G$-gradings, with a fixed group $G$, up to isomorphism. For…

Let w be an elliptic element of the Weyl group of a connected reductive group G. Let X be the set of pairs (g,B) where g is an element of G, B is a Borel subgroup of G and B,gBg^{-1} are in relative position w. Then G acts naturally on X.…

We compute the Grothendieck group of the category of abelian varieties over an algebraically closed field $k$. We also compute the Grothendieck group of the category of $A$-isotypic abelian varieties, for any simple abelian variety $A$,…

Under suitable hypotheses, we prove that a form of a projective homogeneous variety $G/P$ defined over the function field of a surface over an algebraically closed field has a rational point. The method uses an algebro-geometric analogue of…

We classify pairs of conjugacy classes in almost simple algebraic groups whose product consists of finitely many classes. This leads to several interesting families of examples which are related to a generalization of the Baer--Suzuki…

We consider the notion of a confluent spherical function on a connected semisimple Lie group, $G,$ with finite center and of real rank $1,$ and discuss the properties and relationship of its algebra with the well-known Schwartz algebra of…

A bicovariant calculus of differential operators on a quantum group is constructed in a natural way, using invariant maps from \fun\ to \uqg\ , given by elements of the pure braid group. These operators --- the `reflection matrix' $Y \equiv…

We prove that for a simply laced group, the closure of the Borel conjugacy class of any nilpotent element of height $2$ in its conjugacy class is normal and admits a rational resolution. We extend this, using Frobenius splitting techniques,…

We classify, up to equivalence, all finite-dimensional simple graded division algebras over the field of real numbers. The grading group is any finite abelian group.

Motivated by the theory of Riemann surfaces, we classify all possibilities for finite simple groups acting faithfully on a compact Riemann surface of genus at least 2 in such a way that all non-trivial elements have at most three fixed…

In this paper we obtain the Wedderburn-Artin decomposition of a semisimple group algebra associated to a direct product of finite groups. We also provide formulae for the number of all possible group codes, and their dimensions, that can be…
