Let $(V,q)$ be a non-degenerate $n$-dimensional quadratic space over the rationals of real signature $(r,s)$. For every integer $1\leq k \leq \min\{r,n-2\}$ we construct classes in the cohomology of arithmetic subgroups of $\mathrm{O}(V)$…

Using spaces of homomorphisms and the descending central series of the free groups, simplicial spaces are constructed for each integer q>1 and every topological group G, with realizations B(q,G) that filter the classifying space BG. In…

Every synchronising permutation group is primitive and of one of three types: affine, almost simple, or diagonal. We exhibit the first known example of a synchronising diagonal type group. More precisely, we show that…

Let $F$ be any field. We give a short and elementary proof that any finite subgroup $G$ of $PGL(2,F)$ occurs as a Galois group over the function field $F(x)$. We also develop a theory of descent to subfields of $F$. This enables us to…

For each odd prime power $q$ with $q\ge 5$ and $4\mid q-1$, we investigate the structure of the representation category of the quantum double of ${\rm SL}(2,q)$, determining its tensor products and braidings.

For the black box groups $X$ encrypting ${\rm{PGL}}_2(q)$, $q$ odd, we propose an algorithm constructing a subgroup encrypting ${\rm{Sym}}_4$ and subfield subgroups of $X$. We also present the analogous algorithms for black box groups…

This paper concerns the enumeration of isomorphism classes of modules of a polynomial algebra in several variables over a finite field. This is the same as the classification of commuting tuples of matrices over a finite field up to…

In this paper, we calculate cohomology of a classical Lie algebra of type $A_2$ over an algebraically field $k$ of characteristic $p=3$ with coefficients in simple modules. To describe their structure, we will consider them as modules over…

In the case of Uq(sl(2,R)) at root of unity q-deformed analogues are proposed for the generator of the maximal compact subalgebra, J, and for the raising and lowering operators. We prove an algebraic identity which implies that J has…

In this paper we consider the representation theory of a non-standard quantization of sl(2). This paper contains several results which have applications in quantum topology, including the classification of projective indecomposable modules…

The group algebra of the permutation group is spanned by a set of elements called projectors. The coordinates of permutations expanded in projectors are matrix elements of irreducible representations. The projectors of the permutation group…

Unitals can be obtained as closures of affine unitals via parallelisms. The isomorphism type of the closure depends on the chosen parallelism, which need not be unique. For affine $\operatorname{SL}(2,q)$-unitals, we introduce a class of…

In this paper, we prove that if G is a finite simple group with the same-size conjugacy class set U(G) = U(PSL(2, 11)), then G is isomorphic to PSL(2, 11).

We show that the space of invariants for the Weil representation for discriminant groups which contain self-dual isotropic subgroups is spanned by the characteristic functions of the self-dual isotropic subgroups. As an application, we…

In this paper, we attempt to determine the quantum cohomology of projective bundles over the projective space P^n. In contrast to the previous examples, the relevant moduli spaces in our case frequently do not have expected dimensions. It…

For a prime p>2 and q=p^n, we compute a finite generating set for the SL_2(F_q)-invariants of the second symmetric power representation, showing the invariants are a hypersurface and the field of fractions is a purely transcendental…

We consider the projective linear group $\mathrm{PSL}(3,\mathbb{H})$. We have investigated the reversibility problem in this group and use the reversibility to offer an algebraic characterization of the dynamical types of…

We prove that for q\in\C* not a nontrivial root of unity the cohomology group defined by invariant 2-cocycles in a completion of Uq(g) is isomorphic to H^2(P/Q;\T), where P and Q are the weight and root lattices of g. This implies that the…

There are two approaches to projective representation theory of symmetric and alternating groups, which are powerful enough to work for modular representations. One is based on Sergeev duality, which connects projective representation…

We define and study the notion of a crossed module over an inverse semigroup and the corresponding $4$-term exact sequences, called crossed module extensions. For a crossed module $A$ over an $F$-inverse monoid $T$, we show that equivalence…
