Let $E$ denote a general complex binary form of order $d$ (seen as a point in $\P^d$), and let $\Omega_E \subseteq \P^d$ denote the closure of its $SL_2$-orbit. In this note, we calculate the equivariant minimal generators of its defining…
Let G be the split special orthogonal group of degree 2n+1 over a field F of char F \ne 2. Then we describe G-orbits on the triple flag varieties G/P\times G/P\times G/P and G/P\times G/P\times G/B with respect to the diagonal action of G…
Starting with an O(2)-principal fibration over a closed oriented surface F_g, g>=1, a 2-fold covering of the total space is said to be special when the monodromy sends the fiber SO(2) = S^1 to the nontrivial element of Z_2. Adapting D…
We define weak 2-categories of finite dimensional algebras with bimodules, along with collections of operators $\mathbb{O}_{(c,x)}$ on these 2-categories. We prove that special examples $\mathbb{O}_p$ of these operators control all…
We study the Oort groups for a prime p, i.e. finite groups G such that every G-Galois branched cover of smooth curves over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p lifts to a G-cover of curves in characteristic 0. We prove that all…
Let $F$ be a non-Archimedean local field and let $\mathcal{O}_{F}$ be its ring of integers. The orbit of an irreducible representation $\rho$ of $\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathcal{O}_F)$ is a conjugacy class in $\mathfrak{gl}_n(\mathcal{O}_F)$…
The classification of the unitary irreducible representations of symmetry groups is a cornerstone of modern quantum physics, as it provides the fundamental building blocks for constructing the Hilbert spaces of theories admitting these…
The group PGL(3) of linear transformations of the projective plane acts naturally on the projective space parametrizing curves of a given degree. In this note we begin the study of the orbits of smooth curves under this action: we construct…
This paper investigates the structure of $K_2$-groups for certain quotient rings of the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z}[G]$. Let $G$ be a finite abelian $p$-group with $p$-rank $r$, let $\Gamma$ be the maximal $\mathbb{Z}$-order of…
Let $G$ be a quasi-simple algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ and $B$ a Borel subgroup of $G$ acting on the nilradical $\mathfrak{n}$ of its Lie algebra $\mathfrak{b}$ via the Adjoint representation. It is known…
In this paper we study the orbit closure problem for a reductive group $G\subseteq GL(X)$ acting on a finite dimensional vector space $V$ over $\C$. We assume that the center of $GL(X)$ lies within $G$ and acts on $V$ through a fixed…
A finite group $G$ is called a Schur group, if any Schur ring over $G$ is the transitivity module of a point stabilizer in a subgroup of $\sym(G)$ that contains all right translations. We complete a classification of abelian $2$-groups by…
We classify the finite primitive permutation groups which have a cyclic subgroup with two orbits. This extends classical topics in permutation group theory, and has arithmetic consequences. By a theorem of C. L. Siegel, affine algebraic…
The object of this paper is to study GL(2,R) orbit closures in hyperelliptic components of strata of abelian differentials. The main result is that all higher rank affine invariant submanifolds in hyperelliptic components are branched…
Let $n$ be a positive integer and $G(n)$ denote the number of non-isomorphic finite groups of order $n$. It is well-known that $G(n) = 1$ if and only if $(n,\phi(n)) = 1$, where $\phi(n)$ and $(a, b)$ denote the Euler's totient function and…
The $n$-dimensional affine group over the integers is the group $\mathcal G_n$ of all affinities on $\mathbb R^{n}$ which leave the lattice $ \mathbb Z^{n}$ invariant. $\mathcal G_n$ yields a geometry in the classical sense of the Erlangen…
An l-group G is an abelian group equipped with a translation invariant lattice order. Baker and Beynon proved that G is finitely generated projective iff it is finitely presented. A unital l-group is an l-group G with a distinguished order…
We introduce and study diamonds of GL(2,R)-invariant subvarieties of Abelian and quadratic differentials, which allow us to recover information on an invariant subvariety by simultaneously considering two degenerations, and which provide a…
Let $G$ be the group $GL_r(C) \times (C^\times)^n$. We conjecture that the finely-graded Hilbert series of a $G$ orbit closure in the space of $r$-by-$n$ matrices is wholly determined by the associated matroid. In support of this, we prove…
