Assume $k$ is a field and let $F:C\rightarrow Vect_{k}$ be a small $k$-linear functor from a $k$-linear abelian category $C$ to the category of vector spaces over the field $k$, the purpose of this note is to use a little knowledge of…

This work explores the space of foliations on projective spaces over algebraically closed fields of positive characteristic, with a particular focus on the codimension one case. It describes how the irreducible components of these spaces…

This paper shows that algebraic (in)dependence is encoded in Milnor K-theory of fields. As an application, we show that the isomorphism type of a field is determined by its Milnor K-theory, up to purely inseparable extensions, in most…

The main purpose of the paper is to establish a closedness theorem over Henselian valued fields $K$ of equicharacteristic zero (not necessarily algebraically closed) with separated analytic structure. It says that every projection with a…

We consider the Zariski space of all places of an algebraic function field $F|K$ of arbitrary characteristic and investigate its structure by means of its patch topology. We show that certain sets of places with nice properties (e.g., prime…

For the solvable polynomial algebras introduced and studied by Kandri-Rody and Weispfenning [J. Symbolic Comput., 9(1990)], a constructive characterization is given in terms of Gr\"obner bases for ideals of free algebras, thereby solvable…

We prove that the number of geometrically indecomposable representations of fixed dimension vector d of a canonical algebra C defined over a finite field Fq is given by a polynomial in q (depending on C and d). We prove a similar result for…

We show that on real algebraic sets algebraically constructible functions coincide with the finite sums of signs of polynomials. Then we give some applications.

Given a polynomial P in several variables over an algebraically closed field, we show that except in some special cases that we fully describe, if one coefficient is allowed to vary, then the polynomial is irreducible for all but at most…

One may construct, for any function on the integers, an irreducible module of level zero for affine sl(2), using the values of the function as structure constants. The modules constructed using exponential-polynomial functions realise the…

Let H denote a semisimple Hopf algebra over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 0. We show that the degree of any irreducible representation of H whose character belongs to the center of H^* must divide the dimension of H .

Pseudoexponential fields are exponential fields similar to complex exponentiation satisfying the Schanuel Property, which is the abstract statement of Schanuel's Conjecture, and an adapted form of existential closure. Here we show that if…

An informal discussion of how the construction problem in algebraic geometry motivates the search for formal proof methods. Also includes a brief discussion of my own progress up to now, which concerns the formalization of category theory…

We study the preorder $\le_p$ on the family of subsets of an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$ defined by letting $A\le_pB $ if there exists a polynomial $P$ such that $A=P^{-1}(B)$.

We construct a topology on a given algebraically closed field with a distinguished subfield which is also algebraically closed. This topology is finer than Zariski topology and it captures the sets definable in the pair of algebraically…

We describe derivations of the Clifford algebra of a nondegenerate quadratic form on a countable dimensional vector space over an algebraically closed field of characteristic not equal to $2$. We also construct an algebraic automorphism of…

Let $ {\mathbf k} $ be a field and $Q\in {\mathbf k}[x_1, \ldots, x_s]$ a form (homogeneous polynomial) of degree $d>1.$ The ${\mathbf k}$-Schmidt rank $rk_{\mathbf k}(Q)$ of $Q$ is the minimal $r$ such that $Q= \sum_{i=1}^r R_iS_i$ with…

We show that any equivalence of bounded derived categories of coherent sheaves on a smooth projective complex variety supported in a closed algebraic subset preserves the dimension of the support in two cases: (i) the restriction of the…

We consider the set of affine alcoves associated with a root system R as a topological space and consider a certain category S of sheaves of Z-modules on this space. Here Z is the structure algebra of the root system over a field k. To any…

We define an analogue of the Fox derivatives for differential polynomial algebras and give a criterion for differential algebraic dependence of a finite system of elements. In particular, we prove that differential algebraic dependence of a…
