Let (G,V) be a regular prehomogeneous vector space (abbreviated to PV), where G is a connected reductive algebraic group over C. If $V= \oplus_{i=0}^{n}V_{i}$ is a decomposition of V into irreducible representations, then, in general, the…

We investigate an analogue of the Wedderburn principal theorem for associative conformal algebras with finite faithful representations. It is shown that the radical splitting property for an algebra of this kind holds if the maximal…

For each integer partition $\lambda \vdash n$ we give a simple combinatorial expression for the sum of the Jack character $\theta^\lambda_\alpha$ over the integer partitions of $n$ with no singleton parts. For $\alpha = 1,2$ this gives…

We describe derivations of the Clifford algebra of a nondegenerate quadratic form on a countable dimensional vector space over an algebraically closed field of characteristic not equal to $2$. We also construct an algebraic automorphism of…

N=2 supersymmetric U(N) Yang-Mills theory softly broken to N=1 by the superpotential of the adjoint scalar fields is discussed from the viewpoint of the Whitham deformation theory for prepotential. With proper identification of the…

It is conjectured that the dual variety of every smooth nonlinear subvariety of dimension $> \frac{2N}{3}$ in projective $N$-space is a hypersurface, an expectation known as the duality defect conjecture. This would follow from the truth of…

We prove the irreducibility of the universal non-degenerate Whittaker modules for the affine Lie algebra $\widehat{sl_2}$ of type $A_1^{(1)}$ with noncritical level which are also irreducible Whittaker modules over $\widetilde{sl_2}…

A presentation of the problem of calculating the vector coupling coefficients for $SU3 \supset SU2 \otimes U1$ is made, in the spirit of traditional treatments of SU2 coupling. The coefficients are defined as the overlap matrix element…

Let $(H_{\mathbf{R}}, U_t)$ be any strongly continuous orthogonal representation of $\mathbf{R}$ on a real (separable) Hilbert space $H_{\mathbf{R}}$. For any $q\in (-1,1)$, we denote by $\Gamma_q(H_{\mathbf{R}},U_t)^{\prime\prime}$ the…

Quantum superintegrable systems are solvable eigenvalue problems. Their solvability is due to symmetry, but the symmetry is often "hidden". The symmetry generators of 2nd order superintegrable systems in 2 dimensions close under commutation…

We define the quadratic algebra su(2)_{\alpha} which is a one-parameter deformation of the Lie algebra su(2) extended by a parity operator. The odd-dimensional representations of su(2) (with representation label j, a positive integer) can…

We reinterpret anomaly-mediated supersymmetry breaking from a field-theoretic perspective in which superconformal anomalies couple to either the chiral compensator or the $U(1)_R$ vector superfield. As supersymmetry in the hidden sector is…

We describe degenerations of three-dimensional Jordan superalgebras over $\mathbb{C}$. In particular, we describe all irreducible components in the corresponding varieties.

If $\mathscr{J}$ is a finite-dimensional nilpotent algebra over a finite field $\Bbbk$, the algebra group $P = 1+\mathscr{J}$ admits a (standard) supercharacter theory as defined by Diaconis and Isaacs. If $\mathscr{J}$ is endowed with an…

A Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture for number fields $K / \mathbb{Q}$ would assert that $dim V_K = ord_{s = 1/2} \zeta_K (s)$ for some vector space functorially attached to $K$. Presently there is no natural candidate for the $V_K$'s.…

When a $4D$ supersymmetric theory is placed on $S^3 \times \mathbb{R}$, the supersymmetric algebra is necessarily modified to $su(2|1)$ and we are dealing with a weak supersymmetric system. For such systems, the excited states of the…

We study Widom factors for (a) monic orthogonal polynomials in $L^2$ with respect to the equilibrium measure of a compact set $K\subset\mathbb{R}$ and (b) residual polynomials normalized at an exterior point. Using weakly equilibrium Cantor…

We study the decomposition of central simple algebras of exponent 2 into tensor products of quaternion algebras. We consider in particular decompositions in which one of the quaternion algebras contains a given quadratic extension. Let $B$…

By considering that the weak currents and the electromagnetic current are members of the same SU(3) octet, two sum rules involving leading vector form factors in hyperon semileptonic decays are derived in the limit of exact flavor SU(3)…

We study the Whittaker category $\mathcal N(\zeta)$ of the Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak g$ for an arbitrary character $\zeta$ of the even subalgebra of the nilpotent radical associated with a triangular decomposition of $\mathfrak g$. We…
