We consider local non-Gorenstein rings of the form $(S_i,\mathfrak{n}_i)=k[X, Y_1, \ldots ,Y_i]/\left(X^2, (Y_1, \ldots, Y_i)^2\right), $ where $i\geq 2.$ We show that every totally reflexive $S_i$-module has a presentation matrix of the…

The ordinary Bondi-Metzner-Sachs (BMS) group B is the common asymptotic symmetry group of all asymptotically flat Lorentzian space-times. As such, B is the best candidate for the universal symmetry group of General Relativity. However, in…

We prove that the metric of the Riemannian product $(\mb{S}^k(r_1)\times \mb{S}^{n-k}(r_2), g^n_k)$, $r_1^2+r_2^2=1$, is a Yamabe metric in its conformal class if, and only if, either $g^n_k$ is Einstein, or the linear isometric embedding…

We present a conjecture on the irreducibility of the tensor products of fundamental representations of quantized affine algebras. This conjecture implies in particular that the irreducibility of the tensor products of fundamental…

We study completely contractive representations of product systems $X$ of correspondences over the semigroup $\mathbb{Z}_+^k$. We present a necessary and sufficient condition for such a representation to have a regular isometric dilation.…

The purpose of this paper is to study categorifications of tensor products of finite dimensional modules for the quantum group for sl(2). The main categorification is obtained using certain Harish-Chandra bimodules for the complex Lie…

We prove that embeddings of compact groups are equalizers, and a number of results on pushouts (and more generally, amalgamated free products) in the category of compact groups. Call a family of compact-group embeddings $H\le G_i$…

A slight modification to Halmos' definition of product of measures yields a uniquely characterized associative product. The operation applies to arbitrary (not necessarily $\sigma-$finite) measures and is consistent with the Fubini--Tonelli…

We introduce a method for associating a chain complex to a module over a combinatorial category, such that if the complex is exact then the module has a rational Hilbert series. We prove homology--vanishing theorems for these complexes for…

Bernstein, Frenkel and Khovanov have constructed a categorification of tensor products of the standard representation of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ using singular blocks of category $\mathcal{O}$ for $\mathfrak{sl}_n$. In earlier work, we construct…

Let g be a finite-dimensional complex Lie algebra, and let U(g) be its universal enveloping algebra. We prove that if \hat{U}(g), the Arens-Michael envelope of U(g), is stably flat over U(g) (i.e., if the canonical homomorphism…

For a Hilbert function space $\mathcal H$ the Smirnov class $\mathcal N^+(\mathcal H)$ is defined to be the set of functions expressible as a ratio of bounded multipliers of $\mathcal H$, whose denominator is cyclic for the action of…

A classical tool in the study of real closed fields are the fields $K((G))$ of generalised power series (i.e., formal sums with well-ordered support) with coefficients in a field $K$ of characteristic 0 and exponents in an ordered abelian…

Let $\mathfrak{M}(\mathbb{D}, m, n, P)$ be the ring of all $m \times n$ matrices over a division ring $\mathbb{D}$, with the product given by $A \bullet B=A P B$, where $P$ is a fixed $n \times m$ matrix over $\mathbb{D}$. When $2\leq m, n…

Let $G$ be a group which admits a generating set consisting of finite order elements. We prove that any Hopf algebra which factorizes through the Taft algebra and the group Hopf algebra $K[G]$ (equivalently, any bicrossed product between…

A skew-morphism of a finite group $G$ is a permutation $\s$ on $G$ fixing the identity element, and for which there exists an integer function $\pi$ on $G$ such that $\s(xy)=\s(x)\s^{\pi(x)}(y)$ for all $x,y\in G$. It has been known that…

The Garsia--Haiman module is a bigraded $\mathfrak{S}_n$-module whose Frobenius image is a Macdonald polynomial. The method of orbit harmonics promotes an $\mathfrak{S}_n$-set $X$ to a graded polynomial ring. The orbit harmonics can be…

An example is given of a compact absolute retract that is not a Hilbert cube manifold but whose second symmetric porduct is the Hilbert cube. A factor theorem is given for nth symmetric product of the cartesian product of any absolute…

It is shown that there exist infinitely many non-integers $r>2$ such that the Dehn function of some finitely presented group is $\simeq n^r$. For each positive rational number $s$ we construct pairs of finitely presented groups $H\subset G$…

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…
