We investigate linearity of amalgams of subgroups of algebraic groups along intersections with algebraic subgroups. In the process, we establish linearity of certain "doubles" of linear groups, and obtain new examples of finitely generated…
For sets $A, B\subset \mathbb N$, their sumset is $A + B := \{a+b: a\in A, b\in B\}$. If we cannot write a set $C$ as $C = A+B$ with $|A|, |B|\geq 2$, then we say that $C$ is $\textit{irreducible}$. The question of whether a given set $C$…
Exploration of the intractable posterior distributions associated with Bayesian versions of the general linear mixed model is often performed using Markov chain Monte Carlo. In particular, if a conditionally conjugate prior is used, then…
We give an elementary proof of a formula expressing the rotation number of a cyclic unimodular sequence of lattice vectors in terms of arithmetically defined local quantities. The formula has been originally derived by A. Higashitani and M.…
We investigate the computability of the isomorphism set $\operatorname{Iso}(G_A,G_B)$ between $G_A$ and $G_B$, where $G_A$ is a subgroup of $\mathbb{Q}^n$ generated by columns of integer powers of a non-singular $n \times n$-matrix $A$ with…
Let $\underline{x} = x_1,\ldots,x_k$ denote an ordered sequence of elements of a commutative ring $R$. Let $M$ be an $R$-module. We recall the two notions that $\underline{x}$ is $M$-proregular given by Greenlees and May (see \cite{[5]})…
The main result of the paper establishes the irreducibility of a large family of nonzero central charge induced modules over Affine Lie algebras for any non standard parabolic subalgebra. It generalizes all previously known partial results…
In this expository article we collect the integer sequences that count several different types of matrices over finite fields and provide references to the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences (OEIS). Section 1 contains the sequences,…
It is well-known that the representation theory of the finite group of unipotent upper-triangular matrices $U_n$ over a finite field is a wild problem. By instead considering approximately irreducible representations (supercharacters), one…
We prove irreducibility for the space of cyclic covers of fixed numerical type between smooth projective curves, and also for the space of cyclic covers of prime order and of fixed numerical-combinatorial type between moduli-stable…
We use assembly maps to study $\mathbf{TC}(\mathbb{A}[G];p)$, the topological cyclic homology at a prime $p$ of the group algebra of a discrete group $G$ with coefficients in a connective ring spectrum $\mathbb{A}$. For any finite group, we…
Generalized Baxter's relations on the transfer-matrices (also known as Baxter's TQ relations) are constructed and proved for an arbitrary untwisted quantum affine algebra. Moreover, we interpret them as relations in the Grothendieck ring of…
Reid asked whether all convex-cocompact subgroups of mapping class groups are separable. Using a construction of Manning-Mj-Sageev, we give examples of separable convex-cocompact subgroups that are free of arbitrary finite rank, while prior…
We consider the set $\mathcal{M}_n(\mathbb Z; H)$ of $n\times n$-matrices with integer elements of size at most $H$ and obtain a new upper bound on the number of matrices from $\mathcal{M}_n(\mathbb Z; H)$ with a given characteristic…
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the properties of spectral and tiling subsets of cyclic groups, with an eye towards the spectral set conjecture in one dimension, which states that a bounded measurable subset of $\mathbb{R}$…
Let $f:\CN \rightarrow \C $ be a polynomial map, which is transversal at infinity. Using Sabbah's specialization complex, we give a new description of the Alexander modules of the hypersurface complement $\CN\setminus f^{-1}(0)$, and obtain…
Let G be a linear algebraic group, P be a parabolic subgroup of G and \beta be a cycle of dimension 1 in the Chow group of the quotient G/P. Using geometric arguments and Borel's fixed point theorem, we prove that the moduli space…
Milliet asks the following question: given two prime numbers $p\neq q$, is there a division algebra of characteristic $p$ which is of dp-rank $q^2$ and of dimension $q^2$ over its center? We answer in the affirmative. We also give an…
Let $A$ be a commutative noetherian ring and $I$ an ideal in $A$. We characterize algebraically when all the minimal primes of the associated graded ring $G_I A$ contract to minimal primes of $A/I$. This, applied to intersection theory,…
Arising from the classification of the matrix-roots of a nonnegative imprimitive irreducible matrix, we present results concerning the Jordan chains of an $h$-cyclic matrix. We also present ancillary results applicable to nonnegative…
