First, I construct an isomorphism between the categories of (topological) groups of nilpotency class 2 with 2-divisible center and (topological) Lie rings of nilpotency class 2 with 2-divisible center. That isomorphism allows us to…
A sequence of nonzero integers $f = (f_1, f_2, \dots)$ is ``binomid'' if every $f$-binomid coefficient $\left[\! \begin{array}{c} n \\ k \end{array}\! \right]_f$ is an integer. Those terms are the generalized binomial coefficients: \[…
We construct and study in detail various dual pairs acting on some Fock representations between a finite dimensional Lie group and a completed infinite rank affine algebra associated to an infinite affine Cartan matrix. We give explicit…
Consider the action of a connected complex reductive group on a finite-dimensional vector space. A fundamental result in invariant theory states that the orbit closure of a vector v is separated from the origin if and only if some…
Let $G$ be a simply connected and simple algebraic group defined and split over a finite prime field $\mathbb{F}_p$ of $p$ elements. In this paper, using an $\mathbb{F}_p$-linear map splitting Frobenius endomorphism on a hyperalgebra…
Let $n,$ $m \geq 2$ be integers, and let $R$ be a subring of $\mathbb R$ with field of fractions $F.$ In this article, we generalize the rational angle bisection problem previously proposed by the author to the following problem: which…
We compute all the top intersection numbers of divisors on the total space of the Poincare bundle restricted to the product of a curve and the abelian variety. We use these computations to find the class of the universal theta divisor and…
We study the groups of rational points of abelian varieties defined over a finite field $ \mathbb{F}_q$ whose endomorphism rings are commutative, or, equivalently, whose isogeny classes are determined by squarefree characteristic…
In this work we approach the problem of determining which (compact) semialgebraic subsets of ${\mathbb R}^n$ are images under polynomial maps $f:{\mathbb R}^m\to{\mathbb R}^n$ of the closed unit ball $\overline{{\mathcal B}}_m$ centered at…
Let $F$ be a separable integral binary form of odd degree $N \geq 5$. A result of Darmon and Granville known as ``Faltings plus epsilon'' implies that the degree-$N$ \emph{superelliptic equation} $y^2 = F(x,z)$ has finitely many primitive…
This dissertation describes the space of heteroclinic orbits for a class of semilinear parabolic equations, focusing primarily on the case where the nonlinearity is a second degree polynomial with variable coefficients. Along the way, a new…
We clarify the relationship between the linear commutator and the ordinary commutator by showing that in any variety satisfying a nontrivial idempotent Mal'cev condition the linear commutator is definable in terms of the centralizer…
In 2008, M. Marshall settled a long-standing open problem by showing that if f(x,y) is a polynomial that is non-negative on the strip [0,1] x R, then there exist sums of squares s(x,y) and t(x,y) such that f(x,y) = s(x,y) + (x - x^2)…
It has been recently shown that $|| F_n(A) ||\leq 2$, where $A$ is a linear continuous operator acting in a Hilbert space, and $F_n$ is the Faber polynomial of degree $n$ corresponding to some convex compact $E\subset \mathbb C$ containing…
The profile vector of a family $\mathcal{F}$ of subsets of an $n$-element set is $(f_0,f_1, \ldots, f_n)$ where $f_i$ denotes the number of the $i$-element members of $\mathcal{F}$. In this paper we determine the extreme points of the set…
This paper has two objectives. First, we study lattices with skew-Hermitian forms over division algebras with positive involutions. For division algebras of Albert types I and II, we show that such a lattice contains an "orthogonal" basis…
We tackle several problems related to a finite irreducible crystallographic root system $\Phi$ in the real vector space $\mathbb E$. In particular, we study the combinatorial structure of the subsets of $\Phi$ cut by affine subspaces of…
The Invariant Subset Problem on the Hilbert space is to know whether there exists a bounded linear operator $T$ on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space $H$ such that the orbit $\{T^{n}x;\ n\ge 0\}$ of every non-zero vector $x\in…
Let $FI(X,K)$ be the finitary incidence algebra of a non-connected partially ordered set $X$ over a field $K$ of characteristic different from $2$. For the case where every multiplicative automorphism of $FI(X,K)$ is inner, we present…
