Let G be a semisimple affine algebraic group over a field F. Assuming that G becomes of inner type over some finite field extension of F of degree a power of a prime p, we investigate the structure of the Chow motives with coefficients in a…

In this note, we give an alternate proof of the multinomial theorem using a probabilistic approach. Although the multinomial theorem is basically a combinatorial result, our proof may be simpler for a student familiar with only basic…

We study the intersection of an algebraic variety with the maximal compact subgroup of a universal vectorial extension of a product of elliptic curves. For this intersection we show a Manin-Mumford type statement. This answers some…

In this paper, the generic intersection theory for difference varieties is presented. Precisely, the intersection of an irreducible difference variety of dimension $d > 0$ and order $h$ with a generic difference hypersurface of order $s$ is…

In a semigroup $S$ with fixed $c\in S$, one can construct a new semigroup $(S,\cdot_c)$ called a \emph{variant} by defining $x\cdot_c y:=xcy$. Elements $a,b\in S$ are \emph{primarily conjugate} if there exist $x,y\in S^1$ such that $a=xy,…

The main result is that for lambda strong limit singular failing the continuum hypothesis (i.e. 2^lambda > lambda^+), a polarized partition theorem holds.

Based on the notions of conciseness and semiconciseness, we show that these properties are not equivalent by proving that a word originally presented by Ol'shanskii is semiconcise but not concise. We further establish that every…

Using a sums of squares formula for two variable polynomials with no zeros on the bidisk, we are able to give a new proof of a representation for distinguished varieties. For distinguished varieties with no singularities on the two-torus,…

We show that for a very general principally polarized complex abelian 3-fold, the Chow group of algebraic cycles is infinite modulo every prime number. In particular, this gives the first examples of complex varieties with infinite Chow…

We show that any finite group $G$ there exists a bijction $f$ from $G$ onto $C_{n}$ such that $o(x)$ divides $o(f(x))$ for all $x\in G$. This confirm Problem 18.1 in [7].

It is shown that a natural notion of congruence permutability for quasivarieties already implies ``being a variety''. The result follows immediately from [3] and the sole aim of this note is to state it explicitly, together with a…

We compute explicitly the Chow motive of any generalized Kummer variety associated to any abelian surface. In fact, it lies in the rigid tensor subcategory of the category of Chow motives generated by the Chow motive of the underlying…

Inside a product of projective spaces, we try to understand which Chow classes come from irreducible subvarieties. The answer is closely related to the theory of integer polymatroids. The support of a representable class can be (partially)…

We study \L o\'s's theorem in a choiceless context. We introduce some variants of \L o\'s's theorem. These variants seem weaker than \L o\'s's theorem, but we prove that these are equivalent to \L o\'s's theorem.

We prove that every congruence distributive variety has directed J\'{o}nsson terms, and every congruence modular variety has directed Gumm terms. The directed terms we construct witness every case of absorption witnessed by the original…

We present generalisations of Wilson's theorem for double factorials, hyperfactorials, subfactorials and superfactorials.

An argument used to show that certain varieties of nilpotent groups have instances of nontrivial dominions is considered, and generalized. The same is done with the argument used to show that there are nontrivial dominions in the variety of…

We show that there are four possibilities for the product of all elements in the multiplicative group of a quotient of the ring of integers in a number field, and give precise conditions for each of the possibilities to occur. This…

We introduce a notion of integration on the category of proper birational maps to a given variety $X$, with value in an associated Chow group. Applications include new birational invariants; comparison results for Chern classes and numbers…

The "Modularity Conjecture" is the assertion that the join of two nonmodular varieties is nonmodular. We establish the veracity of this conjecture for the case of linear idempotent varieties. We also establish analogous results concerning…
