One fruitful motivating principle of much research on the family of integrable systems known as ``Toda lattices'' has been the heuristic assumption that the periodic Toda lattice in an affine Lie algebra is directly analogous to the…
The aim of this paper is to develop the theory of Hom-coalgebras and related structures. After reviewing some key constructions and examples of quasi-deformations of Lie algebras involving twisted derivations and giving rise to the class of…
We initiate the systematic study of loop conditions of arbitrary finite width. Each loop condition is a finite set of identities of a particular shape, and satisfaction of these identities in an algebra is characterized by it forcing a…
This article mainly aims to overview the recent efforts on developing algebraic geometry for an arbitrary compact almost complex manifold. We review the results obtained by the guiding philosophy that a statement for smooth maps between…
We study a variety of loops, RIF, which arise naturally from considering inner mapping groups, and a somewhat larger variety, ARIF. All Steiner and Moufang loops are RIF, and all flexible C-loops are ARIF. We show that all ARIF loops are…
We focus in this text on the adaptation to the study of shuffles of the main combinatorial tool in the theory of free Lie algebras, namely the existence of a universal algebra of endomorphisms for tensor and other cocommutative Hopf…
Last years a number of papers were devoted to describing automorphisms of semigroups of endomorphisms of free finitely generated universal algebras of some varieties: groups, semigroups, associative commutative algebras, inverse semigroups,…
This paper introduces the notion of ``relative gerbes'' for smooth maps of manifolds, and discusses their differential geometry. The equivalence classes of relative gerbes are further classified by the relative integral cohomology in degree…
We introduce analogues of the Hopf algebra of Free quasi-symmetric functions with bases labelled by colored permutations. As applications, we recover in a simple way the descent algebras associated with wreath products $\Gamma\wr\SG_n$ and…
This paper studies automatic structures for subsemigroups of Baumslag--Solitar semigroups (that is, semigroups presented by $\ < x,y \mid (yx^m, x^ny)\ >$, where $m$ and $n$ are natural numbers). A geometric argument (a rarity in the field…
We introduce a twisted quantum affine algebra associated to each simply laced finite dimensional simple Lie algebra. This new algebra is a Hopf algebra with a Drinfeld-type comultiplication. We obtain this algebra by considering its vertex…
We study automorphism groups of formal matrix algebras. We also consider automorphisms of ordinary matrix algebras (in particular, triangular matrix algebras).
We realize the fundamental representations of quantum algebras via the supersymmetric Higgs mechanism in gauge theories with 8 supercharges on an $\Omega$-background. We test our proposal for quantum affine algebras, by probing the Higgs…
In this paper which is the first of a series of papers on smooth structures, the concepts of C-structures and smooth structures are introduced and studied. The notion of smooth structure on semi-integral domains is given. It is shown that…
We define the concept of \emph{companion automorphism} of a Hopf algebra $H$ as an automorphism $\sigma:H \rightarrow H$: $\sigma^2=S^2$ --where $S$ denotes the antipode--. A Hopf algebra is said to be \emph{almost involutive} (AI) if it…
In a contact manifold (M^5, alpha), we consider almost complex structures J which satisfy, for any vector v in the horizontal distribution, d alpha (v,Jv) = 0. We prove that integral cycles whose approximate tangent planes have the property…
The main aim of this paper is the description of a large class of lattices in some nilpotent Lie groups, sometimes filiformes, carrying a flat left invariant linear connection anf often a left invariant symplectic form. As a consequence we…
The homotopy type and homotopy groups of some spectra TAF of topological automorphic forms associated to a unitary similitude group GU of type (1,1) are explicitly described in quasi-split cases. The spectrum TAF is shown to be closely…
We study manifolds endowed with an (almost) even Clifford (hermitian) structure and admitting a large automorphism group. We classify them when they are simply connected and the dimension of the automorphism group is maximal, and also prove…
We separate the $AF$-algebras (correspondingly action of the countable groups on Cantor sets) onto two classes ---- "completely smooth" for which the set of all indecomposable traces (correspondingly list of all invariant ergodic measures)…
