We classify the polycyclic totally ordered simple dimension groups, i.e. dimension groups given by a dense embedding of n-dimensional lattice into the real line. Our method is based on the geometry of simple geodesics on the hyperbolic…
Let G=SL(n,R) with n>5. We construct examples of lattices Gamma of G, subgroup A of the diagonal group and points x in G/Gamma such that the closure of the orbit Ax is not homogeneous but does not factors through the action of a…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of regular action of any abelian subgroup G of $Diff^{1}(C^n) on C^n (i.e. the closure of every orbit of G in some open set is a topological sub-manifold of C^n). We prove that if G fixes 0 and…
A simple abelian variety $A$ defined over a number field $k$ is called of $\mathrm{GL}_n$-type if there exists a number field of degree $2\dim(A)/n$ which is a subalgebra of $\mathrm{End}^0(A)$. We say that $A$ is genuinely of…
In this note I give a formula for calculating the number of orbits of irreducible binary forms of degree $n$ over GF$(p)$ under the action of GL$(2,p)$. This formula has applications to the classification of class two groups of exponent $p$…
The $n$-dimensional affine group over the integers is the group $\mathcal G_n$ of all affinities on $\mathbb R^{n}$ which leave the lattice $ \mathbb Z^{n}$ invariant. $\mathcal G_n$ yields a geometry in the classical sense of the Erlangen…
Let $S = \mathbb{C}[x_{i,j}]$ be the ring of polynomial functions on the space of $m \times n$ matrices, and consider the action of the group $\mathbf{GL} = \mathbf{GL}_m \times \mathbf{GL}_n$ via row and column operations on the matrix…
In this note we complete the calculation of the number of $GL(\mathbb R^n)$-orbits on $\Lambda^k(\mathbb R^n)^*$, by treating the cases $(n,k)= (7,4)$ and $(8,5)$ not covered in the literature. We also calculate the number of of…
In this paper, we count the number of matrices $A = (A_{i,j} )\in \mathcal{O} \subset Mat_{n\times n}(\mathbb{F}_q[x])$ where $deg(A_{i,j})\leq k, 1\leq i,j\leq n$, $deg(\det A) = t$, and $\mathcal{O}$ a given orbit of…
Let $G$ be a classical linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field, and let $\mathfrak{n}$ denote the subset of nilpotent elements in its Lie algebra. In this paper we study a partial order on the $G$-orbits in $\mathfrak{n}$…
Let $X$ be a variety defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $0$, let $N\in\mathbb{N}$, let $g:X\dashrightarrow X$ be a dominant rational self-map, and let $A:\mathbb{A}^N\to \mathbb{A}^N$ be a linear transformation…
In this paper we show that totally geodesic subspaces determine the commensurability class of a standard arithmetic hyperbolic $n$-orbifold, $n\ge 4$. Many of the results are more general and apply to locally symmetric spaces associated to…
Let $B$ be a Borel subgroup of a semisimple algebraic group $G$, and let $\mathfrak a$ be an abelian ideal of $\mathfrak b=Lie(B)$. The ideal $\mathfrak a$ is determined by certain subset $\Delta_{\mathfrak a}$ of positive roots, and using…
We consider the action of the finite matrix group $SL(m,Z_n)$ on the ring $Z_n^m$. We determine orbits of this action for n arbitrary natural number. It is a generalization of the task which was studied by A.A. Kirillov for $m=2$ and $n$…
We show that every finite abelian group $G$ occurs as the group of rational points of an ordinary abelian variety over $\mathbb{F}_2$, $\mathbb{F}_3$ and $\mathbb{F}_5$. We produce partial results for abelian varieties over a general finite…
The existence of closed orbits of real algebraic groups on real algebraic varieties is established. As an application, it is shown that if G is a real reductive linear group with Iwasawa decomposition G= KAN, then every unipotent subgroup…
Given a real abelian field F with group G and an odd prime number {\ell}, we define the circular subgroup of the pro-{\ell}-group of logarithmic units and we show that for any Galois morphism $\rho$ from the pro-{\ell}-group of logarithmic…
We show that any nonzero orbit under a noncompact, simple, irreducible linear group is dense in the Bohr compactification of the ambient space.
For $G$ a connected, reductive group over an algebraically closed field $k$ of large characteristic, we use the canonical Springer isomorphism between the nilpotent variety of $\mathfrak{g}:=\mathrm{Lie}(G)$ and the unipotent variety of $G$…
In the present paper we indicate some Leibniz algebras whose closures of orbits under the natural action of $\GL_n$ form an irreducible component of the variety of complex $n$-dimensional Leibniz algebras. Moreover, for these algebras we…
