Let $G=\Dc_{n}$ be the dicyclic group of order $4n$. Let $\varphi$ be an automorphism of $G$ of order $k$. We describe $\varphi$ and the generalized symmetric space $Q$ of $G$ associated with $\varphi$. When $\varphi$ is an involution, we…
Analytic-bilinear approach is used to study continuous and discrete non-isospectral symmetries of the generalized KP hierarchy. It is shown that M\"obius symmetry transformation for the singular manifold equation leads to continuous or…
In this article we construct a complete system of M\"obius-geometric invariants for pairs $(S^m, S^l), l \leq m$, of spheres contained in the M\"obius space $S^n$. It consists of n-m generalised stationary angles. We interpret these…
Let $M$ be a subset of vector space or projective space. The authors define the \emph{generalized configuration space} of $M$ which is formed by $n$-tuples of elements of $M$ where any $k$ elements of each $n$-tuple are linearly…
We consider a reconfiguration version of the homomorphism problem ${\rm Hom}_\mathbb{M}(N)$ for binary matroids $N$. This reconfiguration problem, ${\rm Recol}_\mathbb{M}(N)$, asks, for two homomorphisms $\phi$ and $\psi$ of a matroid $M$…
In these notes we study several categorical generalizations of the M\"obius function and discuss the relations between the various approaches. We emphasize the topological and geometric meaning of these constructions.
In this paper we show that the automorphism groups of $M_{0,n}^{\text{trop}}$ and $\overline{M}_{0,n}^{\text{trop}}$ are isomorphic to the permutation group $S_n$ for $n\geq5$, while the automorphism groups of $M_{0,4}^{\text{trop}}$ and…
A commutative algebra over a field gives rise to a representation of the category of finite sets and surjective maps. We consider the restriction of this representation to the subcategory of sets of cardinality at most $r$. For each $r$, we…
In this paper, we study generic conformally flat hypersurfaces in the Euclidean $4$-space $\mathbb{R}^4$ using the framework of M\"{o}bius geometry. First, we classify locally the generic conformally flat hypersurfaces with closed M\"obius…
M\"obius inversion, originally a tool in number theory, was generalized to posets for use in group theory and combinatorics. It was later generalized to categories in two different ways, both of which are useful. We provide a unifying…
By a 2-group we mean a groupoid equipped with a weakened group structure. It is called split when it is equivalent to the semidirect product of a discrete 2-group and a one-object 2-group. By a permutation 2-group we mean the 2-group…
In $\mathcal L$, the semilattice of faces of an $n$-cube, we count the number of automorphisms of $\mathcal L$ that fix a given subalgebra -- either pointwise or as a subalgebra. By using M\"obius inversion we get a formula for the number…
Let $N$ be a compact, connected, non-orientable surface of genus $\rho$ with $n$ boundary components, with $\rho \ge 5$ and $n \ge 0$, and let $\mathcal{M} (N)$ be the mapping class group of $N$. We show that, if $\mathcal{G}$ is a finite…
Considering a linearly ordered set, we introduce its symmetric version, and endow it with two operations extending supremum and infimum, so as to obtain an algebraic structure close to a commutative ring. We show that imposing symmetry…
We construct a model of the Hermitian unital of order 3 (obtained from the non-degenerate hermitian form in three variables over the field of order 9) inside the octonion algebra over the field of order 2. This construction is invariant…
We study permutations on n elements preserving orientation (parity) of every subset of size k. We describe all groups of these permutations. Unexpectedly, these groups (except for some special cases) are either trivial, cyclic or dihedral.…
The main object of study of the present paper is the group $\au_n$ of \emph{unimodular automorphisms} of $\com^n$. Taking $\au_n$ as a working example, our intention was to develop an approach (or rather an edifice) which allows one to…
The notion of a holomorphically symplectic manifold can be generalized to the singular one. This paper studies the birational contraction maps between symplectic varieties, and then describes the deformation of a symplectic variety which…
The automorphism group of the Galois covering induced by a pluri-canonical generic covering of a projective space is investigated. It is shown that by means of such coverings one obtains, in dimensions one and two, serieses of specific…
Let M be a smooth compact manifold with boundary. Under some geometric conditions on M, a homotopical model for the pair (M,boundary of M) can be recovered from the configuration category of the interior of M. The grouplike monoid of…
