We study de Rham cohomology for various differential calculi on finite groups G up to order 8. These include the permutation group S_3, the dihedral group D_4 and the quaternion group Q. Poincare' duality holds in every case, and under some…

Finite group symmetry is commonplace in Physics, in particular through crystallographic groups occurring in condensed matter physics -- but also through the inversions (C,P,T and their combinations) occurring in high energy physics and…

In the comparison of nonholonomic mechanics and constrained variational mechanics, invariant affine subbundles arise in the determination of the initial conditions where the two methods yield the same trajectories. Motivated by this,…

Let $X$ be a proper CAT($0$) space and $G$ a cocompact group of isometries of $X$ without fixed point at infinity. We prove that if $\partial X$ contains an invariant subset of circumradius $\pi/2$, then $X$ contains a quasi-dense, closed…

Working over an algebraically closed base field $k$ of characteristic 2, the ring of invariants $R^G$ is studied, where $G$ is the orthogonal group O(n) or the special orthogonal group SO(n), acting naturally on the coordinate ring $R$ of…

Given a group G, we construct, in a canonical way, an inverse semigroup S(G) associated to G. The actions of S(G) are shown to be in one-to-one correspondence with the partial actions of G, both in the case of actions on a set, and that of…

Let $V=V_1 \otimes \cdots \otimes V_n$ be a vector space over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic zero with $\dim(V_i)=d_i$. We study the ring of polynomial invariants $K[\operatorname{End}(V)^{\oplus…

The equivariant cohomology for actions of compact connected abelian groups and elementary abelian p-groups have been widely studied in the last decades. We study some of these results on actions of finite cyclic groups over a field of…

For any abelian compact Lie group $G$, we introduce a family of $G$-stratified pseudomanifolds, whose main feature is the preservation of the orbit spaces in the category of stratified pseudomanifolds. Which generalize a previous definition…

Given a finite group action on a (suitably enhanced) triangulated category linear over a field, we establish a formula for the Hochschild cohomology of the category of invariants, assuming the order of the group is coprime to the…

We describe the rings of invariants for the finite orthogonal groups of plus type in odd characteristic acting on the defining representations. We also describe the invariants of the corresponding Sylow subgroups in the defining…

We prove that the cohomology groups of a definably compact set over an o-minimal expansion of a group are finitely generated and invariant under elementary extensions and expansions of the language. We also study the cohomology of the…

An arbitrary group action on an algebra $R$ results in an ideal $\mathfrak{r}$ of $R$. This ideal $\mathfrak{r}$ fits into the classical radical theory, and will be called the radical of the group action. If $R$ is a noetherian algebra with…

We use the notion of isomorphism between two invariant vector fields to shed new light on the issue of linearization of an invariant vector field near a relative equilibrium. We argue that the notion is useful in understanding the passage…

A close connection between the no-name lemma (concerning algebraic groups acting on vector bundles) and the existence of sufficiently many independent rational covariants is pointed out. In particular, this leads to a new natural proof of…

In this note I give a description of Lyubeznik's local cohomology invariants for a certain natural class of local rings, namely the ones which have the same local cohomology vanishing as one expects from an isolated singularity. This…

For a given monic polynomial $p(t)$ of degree $n$ over a commutative ring $k$, the splitting algebra is the universal $k$-algebra in which $p(t)$ has $n$ roots, or, more precisely, over which $p(t)$ factors, $p(t)=(t-\xi_1)...(t-\xi_n)$.…

Every finite local principal ideal ring is the homomorphic image of a discrete valuation ring of a number field, and is determined by five invariants. We present an action of a group, non-commutative in general, on the set of Eisenstein…

The main result of this paper is a generalization of the theorem of Chevalley-Shephard-Todd to the rings of invariants of pseudoreflection groups over Dedekind domains. In the special case of a principal ideal domain in which the group…

Let G be a reductive linear algebraic group over a field k. Let A be a finitely generated commutative k-algebra on which G acts rationally by k-algebra automorphisms. Invariant theory tells that the ring of invariants A^G=H^0(G,A) is…
