We show that a structural matrix algebra $A$ is isomorphic to the endomorphism algebra of an algebraic-combinatorial object called a generalized flag. If the flag is equipped with a group grading, an algebra grading is induced on $A$. We…
Let $A$ be an $n$-dimensional algebra over a field $k$ and $a(A)$ its quantum symmetry semigroup. We prove that the automorphisms group ${\rm Aut}_{\rm Alg} (A)$ of $A$ is isomorphic to the group $U \bigl( G(a (A)^{\rm o} ) \bigl)$ of all…
We construct a set of $27\times 27$ unitary matrices which give an explicit embedding of the Tits group in the compact real form of the Lie group of type $E_6$. A subset gives an embedding of $\mathrm{PSL}_2(25)$ in $F_4$.
A unified treatment of both superconformal and quasisuperconformal algebras with quadratic non-linearity is given. General formulas describing their structure are found by solving the Jacobi identities. A complete classification of…
We study gradings by noncommutative groups on finite dimensional Lie algebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. It is shown that if $L$ is gradeg by a non-abelian finite group $G$ then the solvable radical $R$ of…
Let A,B be finite dimensional G-graded algebras over an algebraically closed field K with char(K)=0, where G is an abelian group, and let Id_G(A) be the set of graded identities of A (res. Id_G(B)). We show that if A,B are G-simple then…
In 1995, Reznick showed an important variant of the obvious fact that any positive semidefinite (real) quadratic form is a sum of squares of linear forms: If a form (of arbitrary even degree) is positive definite then it becomes a sum of…
We present a special and attractive basis for the exceptional Lie algebra $G_2$, which turns $G_2$ into a $\mathbb{Z}_2^3$-graded Lie algebra. There are two basis elements for each degree of $\mathbb{Z}_2^3\setminus\{(0,0,0)\}$, thus…
In this paper we investigate gradings on tame blocks of group algebras whose defect group is dihedral. We classify gradings on an arbitrary dihedral block up to graded Morita equivalence. We do this by computing the group of outer…
The efficacy of using complexifications to understand the structure of real algebraic groups is demonstrated. In particular the following results are proved: a) If L is an algebraic subgroup of a connected real algebraic group G such that…
We show that in the extended modular group PGL(2,Z) there are exactly seven finite subgroups up to conjugacy; three subgroups of size 2, one subgroup each of size 3, 4, and 6, and the trivial subgroup of size 1.
We construct spectral sequences for computing the cohomology of automorphism groups of formal groups with complex multiplication by a $p$-adic number ring. We then compute the cohomology of the group of automorphisms of a height four formal…
We study a series of real nonassociative algebras $\mathbb{O}_{p,q}$ introduced in $[5]$. These algebras have a natural $\mathbb{Z}_2^n$-grading, where $n=p+q$, and they are characterized by a cubic form over the field $\mathbb{Z}_2$. We…
Complementing the previous paper in the series, this paper classifies $|2|$-graded parabolic geometries, listing their important properties: the group $G_0$, the graded tangent bundle $gr(T)$ and its algebra\"ic bracket, the relevant…
We show that in case a cluster algebra coincides with its upper cluster algebra and the cluster algebra admits a grading with finite dimensional homogeneous components, the corresponding Berenstein-Zelevinsky quantum cluster algebra can be…
Let $H$ be a numerical semigroup. We give effective bounds for the multiplicity $e(H)$ when the associated graded ring $\operatorname{gr}_\mathfrak{m} K[H]$ is defined by quadrics. We classify Koszul complete intersection semigroups in…
We show the existence of rank 6 Ulrich bundles on a smooth cubic fourfold. First, we construct a simple sheaf E of rank 6 as an elementary modification of an ACM bundle of rank 6 on a smooth cubic fourfold. Such an E appears as an extension…
We initiate a systematic study of the perfection of affine group schemes of finite type over fields of positive characteristic. The main result intrinsically characterises and classifies the perfections of reductive groups, and obtains a…
In this paper, we revisit the theory of perfect unary forms over real quadratic fields. Specifically, we deduce an infinite family of real quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d})$ when $d=2$ or $3$ mod $4$, such that there are three classes…
We define two invariants for (semiprime right Goldie) algebras, one for algebras graded by arbitrary abelian groups, which is unchanged under twists by $2$-cocycles on the grading group, and one for $\mathbb Z$-graded or $\mathbb Z_{\ge…
