Let G be a connected and reductive algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 0. An interesting class of representations of G consists of those G-modules having a good filtration -- i.e. a filtration whose…

Let $S$ be a semigroup. The elements $a,b\in S$ are called primarily conjugate if $a=xy$ and $b=yx$ for certain $x,y\in S$. The relation of conjugacy is defined as the transitive closure of the relation of primary conjugacy. In the case…

Let G be a connected reductive algebraic group over an algebraic closed field. We define a (surjective) map from the set of conjugacy classes in the Weyl group to the set of unipotent classes of G.

We extend to alternating groups $A_n$ several results about symmetric groups asserting that under various conditions on a conjugacy class, or more generally, a normal subset, $C$ of $S_n$, we have $C^2 \supseteq A_n\setminus\{1\}$

We determine the structure of the intersection of a finitely generated subgroup of a semiabelian variety $G$ defined over a finite field with a closed subvariety $X\subset G$.

We show that the Lusternik-Schnirelmann category of a simple, simply connected, compact Lie group G is bounded above by the sum of the relative categories of certain distinguished conjugacy classes in G corresponding to the vertices of the…

Let X be an algebraic variety with an action of an algebraic group G. Suppose X has a full exceptional collection of sheaves, and these sheaves are invariant under the action of the group. We construct a semiorthogonal decomposition of…

Let F be a field of characteristic not 2 and assume all algebras are over F. We establish several conjugacy theorems for the special linear Lie algebra sl_2 over an F-algebra which is a UFD. We find the structure of the full automorphism…

All isometries $\sigma$ in a quadratic space over a non-archimedean local field of characteristic not 2 satisfying that any isometry $\tau$ which is conjugate to $\sigma$ in the general linear group is conjugate to $\sigma$ in the…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group of exceptional type over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 0$. This paper continues a long-standing effort to classify the connected reductive subgroups of $G$. Having previously…

As a corollary of work of Ozsvath and Szabo [math.GT/0301149], it is shown that the classical concordance group of algebraically slice knots has an infinite cyclic summand and in particular is not a divisible group.

In this work we state a result that relates the cohomology groups of a Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ and a current Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g} \otimes \mathcal{S}$, by means of a short exact sequence -- similar to the universal coefficients…

The conjugacy problem in braid groups has been extensively studied, particularly from an algorithmic perspective. Established methods based on Garside structures, such as initial summit sets and super summit sets, provide effective…

A real form $G_0$ of a complex semisimple Lie group $G$ has only finitely many orbits in any given compact $G$-homogeneous projective algebraic manifold $Z=G/Q$. A maximal compact subgroup $K_0$ of $G_0$ has special orbits $C$ which are…

For a finite group $G,$ we define the concept of $G$-partial permutation and use it to show that the structure coefficients of the center of the wreath product $G\wr \mathcal{S}_n$ algebra are polynomials in $n$ with non-negative integer…

For an arbitrary connected solvable spherical subgroup H of a connected semisimple algebraic group G we compute the group N_G(H), the normalizer of H in G. Thereby we complete a classification of all (not necessarily connected) solvable…

Over a global field any finite number of central simple algebras of exponent dividing $m$ is split by a common cyclic field extension of degree $m$. We show that the same property holds for function fields of two-dimensional excellent…

In this short note, we classify pairs of conjugacy classes of the symmetric group such that any non-linear irreducible character of the symmetric group vanishes on at least one of them.

Given a recollement of three proper dg algebras over a noetherian commutative ring, e.g. three algebras which are finitely generated over the base ring, which extends one step downwards, it is shown that there is a short exact sequence of…
