In physics, Lie groups represent the algebraic structure that describes symmetry transformations of a given system. Then, the descending Lie algebra of those groups are necessarily real. In most cases, the complexification of those Lie…
We give a summary of joint work with Michael Thaddeus that realizes toroidal compactifcations of split reductive groups as moduli spaces of framed bundles on chains of rational curves. We include an extension of this work that covers Artin…
Superstring compactifications have been vigorously studied for over four decades, and have flourished involving an active iterative feedback between physics and (complex) algebraic geometry. This led to an unprecedented wealth of…
We study the preservation of semisimplicity for holonomic D-modules with respect to the direct and inverse image of mainly finite maps $\pi : X \to Y$ of smooth varieties. A natural filtration of the direct image $\pi_+({\mathcal O}_X)$ is…
A differential algebra of finite type over a field k is a filtered algebra A, such that the associated graded algebra is finite over its center, and the center is a finitely generated k-algebra. The prototypical example is the algebra of…
The notion of an anti-commutative (resp. commutative) rigid superalgebra is a natural generalisation of the notion of a Lie (resp. Jordan) superalgebra. Intuitively rigidity means that small deformations of the product under the structural…
We use recent results about linking the number of zeros on algebraic varieties over $\mathbb{C}$, defined by polynomials with integer coefficients, and on their reductions modulo sufficiently large primes to study congruences with products…
We introduce a covering notion depending on two cardinals, which we call $\mathcal O $-$ [ \mu, \lambda ]$-compactness, and which encompasses both pseudocompactness and many other generalizations of pseudocompactness. For Tychonoff spaces,…
We survey results in algebraic complexity theory, focusing on matrix multiplication. Our goals are (i.) to show how open questions in algebraic complexity theory are naturally posed as questions in geometry and representation theory, (ii.)…
Finitely generated Z-modules have canonical decompositions. When such modules are given in a finitely presented form there is a classical algorithm for computing a canonical decomposition. This is the algorithm for computing the Smith…
We use duality theorems to obtain presentations of some categories of modules. To derive these presentations we generalize a result of Cautis-Kamnitzer-Morrison [arXiv:1210.6437v4]: Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a reductive Lie algebra, and $A$ an…
For a nonempty compact subset $\sigma$ in the plane, the space $AC(\sigma)$ is the closure of the space of complex polynomials in two real variables under a particular variation norm. In the classical setting, $AC[0,1]$ contains several…
We define a certain compactifiction of the general linear group and give a modular description for its points with values in arbitrary schemes. This is a first step in the construction of a higher rank generalization of Gieseker's…
This article is a survey of algebra in the $\infty$-categorical context, as developed by Lurie in "Higher Algebra", and is a chapter in the "Handbook of Homotopy Theory". We begin by introducing symmetric monoidal stable…
One of the algebraic structures that has emerged recently in the study of the operator product expansions of chiral fields in conformal field theory is that of a Lie conformal algebra [K]. A Lie pseudoalgebra is a generalization of the…
This is an exposition of facts about p-local spectra, p-complete spectra and modules over the p-complete sphere spectrum, including homological criteria for finiteness. Most things are well-known to the experts, with a couple of potential…
We study direct sum decompositions of modules satisfying the descending chain condition on direct summands. We call modules satisfying this condition Krull-Schmidt artinian. We prove that all direct sum decompositions of Krull-Schmidt…
Algebraic Combinatorics originated in Algebra and Representation Theory, studying their discrete objects and integral quantities via combinatorial methods which have since developed independent and self-contained lives and brought us some…
We show that a decomposition of a complex Lie group $G$ into a semidirect product generates that of the algebra of analytic functional, ${\mathscr A}(G)$, into an analytic smash product in the sense of Pirkovskii. Also we find sufficient…
For a finite $\mathbb{Z}$-algebra $R$, i.e., for a ring which is not necessarily associative or unitary, but whose additive group is finitely generated, we construct a decomposition of $R/{\rm Ann}(R)$ into directly indecomposable factors…
