We provide a characterisation of $\mathcal{A}$-annihilated generators in the homology ring $H_*(QX;\mathbb{Z}/2)$ and $H_*(Q(X_+);\mathbb{Z}/2)$ when $X$ is some path connected space. We also introduce a method to construct such classes. We…
Let $P_{k}=H^{*}((\mathbb{R}P^{\infty})^{k})$ be the modulo-$2$ cohomology algebra of the direct product of $k$ copies of infinite dimensional real projective spaces $\mathbb{R}P^{\infty}$. Then, $P_{k}$ is isomorphic to the graded…
We study the hit problem, set up by F. Peterson, of finding a minimal set of generators for the polynomial algebra $P_k := \mathbb F_2[x_1,x_2,...,x_k]$ as a module over the mod-2 Steenrod algebra, $\mathcal{A}$. In this paper, we study a…
In this short note, we use Robert Bruner's $\mathcal{A}(1)$-resolution of $P = \mathbb{F}_2[t]$ to shed light on the Hit Problem. In particular, the reduced syzygies $P_n$ of $P$ occur as direct summands of $\widetilde{P}^{\otimes n}$,…
Let $\mathcal P_{n}:=H^{*}((\mathbb{R}P^{\infty})^{n}) \cong \mathbb F_2[x_{1},x_{2},\ldots,x_{n}]$ be the polynomial algebra over the prime field of two elements, $\mathbb F_2.$ We investigate the Peterson hit problem for the polynomial…
Fix $\mathbb Z/2$ is the prime field of two elements and write $\mathcal A_2$ for the mod $2$ Steenrod algebra. Denote by $GL_d:= GL(d, \mathbb Z/2)$ the general linear group of rank $d$ over $\mathbb Z/2$ and by $\mathscr P_d$ the…
Let $P_k$ be the graded polynomial algebra $\mathbb F_2[x_1,x_2,\ldots ,x_k]$ with the degree of each generator $x_i$ being 1, where $\mathbb F_2$ denote the prime field of two elements, and let $GL_k$ be the general linear group over…
The Peterson hit problem in algebraic topology is to explicitly determine the dimension of the quotient space $Q\mathcal P_k = \mathbb F_2\otimes_{\mathcal A}\mathcal P_k$ in positive degrees, where $\mathcal{P}_k$ denotes the polynomial…
We generalize Birkhoff's Theorem in the following fashion. We find necessary and sufficient conditions for any spherically symmetric space-time to be static in terms of the eigenvalues of the stress-energy tensor. In particular, we…
This paper investigates Singer's conjecture by examining the cohit module $\mathbb F_2\otimes_{\mathcal A}P^{\otimes h}$ for specific degrees and values of $h$. Utilizing hit problem techniques, we extend previous work by Mothebe et al. and…
Computing the cohomology of the 2-primary Steenrod algebra $\mathbb{A}$ is a central problem in algebraic topology, as it forms the $E_2$-term of the Adams spectral sequence converging to the stable homotopy groups of spheres. The Singer…
Birkhoff's theorem is a classic result that characterizes locally spherically symmetric solutions of the Einstein equations. In this paper, we illustrate the consequences of its local nature for the cases of vacuum and positive cosmological…
A brief non-technical review of the recent study of classical integrable structures in quantum integrable systems is given. It is explained how to identify the standard objects of quantum integrable systems (transfer matrices, Baxter's…
Using simple algebraic methods along with an analogy to the BFSS model, we explore the possible (target) spacetime symmetries that may appear in a matrix description of de Sitter gravity. Such symmetry groups could arise in two ways, one…
We consider spherically symmetric space-times in GR under the unconventional assumptions that the spherical radius $r$ is either a constant or has a null gradient in the $(t,x)$ subspace orthogonal to the symmetry spheres (i.e., $(\partial…
Space-time is spherically symmetric if it admits the group of SO(3) as a group of isometries,with the group orbits spacelike two-surfaces. These orbits are necessarily two-surface of constant positive curavture. One commonly chooses…
We investigate static and spherically symmetric black hole (BH) solutions in shift-symmetric quadratic-order degenerate higher-order scalar-tensor (DHOST) theories. We allow a nonconstant kinetic term $X=g^{\mu\nu}…
