We study the convergence of the parameter family of series $$V_{\alpha,\beta}(t)=\sum_{p}p^{-\alpha}\exp(2\pi i p^{\beta}t),\quad \alpha,\beta \in \mathbb{R}_{>0},\; t \in [0,1)$$ defined over prime numbers $p$, and subsequently, their…
A p-divisible group over a complete local domain determines a Galois representation on the Tate module of its generic fibre. We determine the image of this representation for the universal deformation in mixed characteristic of a…
A popular class of priors for symmetric positive-definite matrices assumes independent entries and adds a truncation to ensure positive-definiteness. While conceptually simple and often computationally convenient, unless done carefully this…
We define a compressed zero-divisor graph $\varTheta(K)$ of a finite commutative unital ring $K$, where the compression is performed by means of the associatedness relation. We prove that this is the best possible compression which induces…
Similarly to the theory of crystalline cohomology, we give a local description of a prismatic crystal and its cohomology in terms of a $q$-Higgs module and the associated $q$-Higgs complex on the bounded prismatic envelope of an embedding…
A 1-truncated compact Lie group is any extension of a finite group by a torus. In this note we compute the homotopy types of $Map_*(BG,BH)$, $Map(BG,BH)$, and $Map(EG, B_GH)^G$ for compact Lie groups $G$ and $H$ with $H$ 1-truncated,…
The tempered spectrum of the similitude groups of non-degenerate symplectic, hermitian, or split orthogonal forms defined over $p$\snug-adic groups of characteristic zero is studied. The components of representations induced from discrete…
An analogue of Burnside's Lemma for 2-transitive groups is shown to hold for a class of topological groups. If the group is compact the representation is finite and splits into an irreducible and the constant functions. If both the group…
We consider limits over categories of extensions and show how certain well-known functors on the category of groups turn out as such limits. We also discuss higher (or derived) limits over categories of extensions.
We classify irreducible representations of the special linear groups in positive characteristic with small weight multiplicities with respect to the group rank and give estimates for the maximal weight multiplicities. For the natural…
It is becoming increasingly clear that the supercharacter theory of the finite group of unipotent upper-triangular matrices has a rich combinatorial structure built on set-partitions that is analogous to the partition combinatorics of the…
We classify the irreducible representations of smooth, connected affine algebraic groups over a field, by tackling the case of pseudo-reductive groups. We reduce the problem of calculating the dimension for pseudo-split pseudo-reductive…
Let R be a complete discrete valuation ring of mixed characteristic (0, p) with perfect residue field, K the fraction field of R. Suppose G is a Barsotti-Tate group (p-divisible group) defined over K which acquires good reduction over a…
Let G be a reductive connected group over an algebraic closure of a finite field. I define a tensor structure on the category of perverse sheaves on G which are direct sums of unipotent character sheaves in a fixed two-sided cell, in…
There are various notions of dimension in fractal geometry to characterise (random and non-random) subsets of $\mathbb R^d$. In this expository text, we discuss their analogues for infinite subsets of $\mathbb Z^d$ and, more generally, for…
Self-similar groups provide a rich source of groups with interesting properties; e.g., infinite torsion groups (Burnside groups) and groups with an intermediate word growth. Various self-similar groups can be described by a recursive…
A method to calculate matrix representations of the twist element $\ff$ of Drinfel'd -- chosen to be unitary -- is given and illustrated at some examples. It is observed that for these F-matrices the crystal limit $q\!\to\! 0$ exists and…
We study the properties of the product, which runs over the primes, $$\mathfrak{p}_n = \prod_{s_p(n) \, \geq \, p} p \quad (n \geq 1),$$ where $s_p(n)$ denotes the sum of the base-$p$ digits of $n$. One important property is the fact that…
The paper displays calculations of linear systems as explained by Dr. Guido Sterbini. We also show a simple nonlinear calculation involving a rotation followed by an octupole kick. Some analytical calculations are compared to the Truncated…
Inspired by the work of Amdeberhan, Can, and Moll on broken necklaces, we define a broken bracelet as a linear arrangement of marked and unmarked vertices and introduce a generalization called $n$-stars, which is a collection of $n$ broken…
