Given a finitely generated linear group $G$ over $\mathbb{Q}$, we construct a simple group $\Gamma$ that has the same finiteness properties as $G$ and admits $G$ as a quasi-retract. As an application, we construct a simple group of type…

Classes of algebraic structures that are defined by equational laws are called varieties or equational classes. A variety is finitely generated if it is defined by the laws that hold in some fixed finite algebra. We show that every…

We survey the existing parts of a classification of finite groups generated by orthogonal transformations in a finite-dimensional Euclidean space whose fixed point subspace has codimension one or two and extend it to a complete…

Explicit embeddings of the group $\mathbb{Q}$ into a finitely presented group $\mathcal{Q}$ and into a $2$-generator finitely presented group $T_{\mathcal{Q}}$ are suggested. The constructed embeddings reflect questions mentioned by…

We study a quantum version of the Kazhdan-Lusztig functor. Namely, we prove that there exists a fully faithfull exact tensor functor from the category of finite dimensional representations of the quantum affine algebra Uq(sl(n)) (with…

In this paper, the 2-category $\mathfrak{Rep}_{{\bf 2Mat}_{\mathbb{C}}}(\mathbb{G})$ of (weak) representations of an arbitrary (weak) 2-group $\mathbb{G}$ on (some version of) Kapranov and Voevodsky's 2-category of (complex) 2-vector spaces…

The construction of the general solution sequence of row-finite linear systems is accomplished by implementing -ad infinitum- the Gauss-Jordan algorithm under a rightmost pivot elimination strategy. The algorithm generates a basis (finite…

We establish several results on the word problem for just infinite groups. First, for finitely generated just infinite groups we show that the word problem is uniformly decidable for presentations with recursively enumerable sets of…

J. Pevtsova and the author constructed a ``universal $p$-nilpotent operator" for an infinitesimal group scheme $G$ over a field $k$ of characteristic $p > 0$ which led to coherent sheaves on the scheme of 1-parameter subgroups of $G$…

We study generalized splines from the perspective of the representation theory of the category of graphs with contractions. Our main theorem proves a kind of finite generation, which in turn implies the existence of a ``universal generating…

Let $G$ be a finite solvable group. Then $G$ always has a useful presentation, which we call a "long presentation". Using a "long presentation" of $G$, we present an inductive method of constructing the irreducible representations of $G$…

We introduce categories of extended Gaussian maps and Gaussian relations which unify Gaussian probability distributions with relational nondeterminism in the form of linear relations. Both have crucial and well-understood applications in…

In quasi-exactly solvable problems partial analytic solution (energy spectrum and associated wavefunctions) are obtained if some potential parameters are assigned specific values. We introduce a new class in which exact solutions are…

For all sufficiently large odd integers $n$, the following version of Higman's embedding theorem is proved in the variety ${\cal B}_n$ of all groups satisfying the identity $x^n=1$. A finitely generated group $G$ from ${\cal B}_n$ has a…

This paper gives a uniform-theoretic refinement of classical homotopy theory. Both cubical sets (with connections) and uniform spaces admit classes of weak equivalences, special cases of classical weak equivalences, appropriate for the…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. In the 1980s, Kawanaka introduced the generalized Gelfand-Graev representations (GGGRs for short) of the finite group $G^F$ in the case where $q$…

Recent work on the representation of functions on sets has considered the use of summation in a latent space to enforce permutation invariance. In particular, it has been conjectured that the dimension of this latent space may remain fixed…

We show that a finitely generated soluble group is virtually nilpotent if and only if the diameter of its finite coset spaces admits a uniform polynomial lower bound in terms of their size. We obtain the same conclusion for certain finitely…

We discuss invariants which are helpful for the computation of the vanishing locus of a finitely presented functor $\mathcal{G}$, i.e., the set of points in the Ziegler spectrum on which $\mathcal{G}$ vanishes. These invariants are: the…

In this paper, we investigate finite-dimensional irreducible representations of the quantum affine general linear superalgebra $\mathrm{U}_q\big(\widehat{\mathfrak{gl}}_{m|n,\mathbf{s}}\big)$ for arbitrary 01-sequences $\mathbf{s}$, using…
