We give a criterion for a finitely generated odd-angled Coxeter group to have a proper finite index subgroup generated by reflections. The answer is given in terms of the least prime divisors of the exponents of the Coxeter relations.
Answering a question of Junker and Ziegler, we construct a countable first order structure which is not omega-categorical, but does not have any proper non-trivial reducts, in either of two senses (model-theoretic, and group-theoretic). We…
Let G be a finite group acting linearly on the polynomial ring with invariant ring R. If the action is small, then a classical result of Auslander gives in dimension two a correspondence between linear representations of G and maximal…
We introduce a hierarchy of degree structures between the Medvedev and Muchnik lattices which allow varying amounts of non-uniformity. We use these structures to introduce the notion of the uniformity of a Muchnik reduction, which expresses…
The main properties of indefinite Kac-Moody and Borcherds algebras, considered in a unified way as Lorentzian algebras, are reviewed. The connection with the conformal field theory of the vertex operator construction is discussed. By the…
In this paper we study regular irreducible algebraic monoids over $\fldc$ equipped with the euclidean topology. It is shown that, in such monoids, the Green classes and the spaces of idempotents in the Green classes all have natural…
We present theoretical study of ordering phenomena in binary $C_{1-x}B_{x}$, $C_{1-x}N_{x}$ and ternary $B_{x}C_{1-x-y}N_{y}$ alloys forming two-dimensional, graphene-like systems. For calculating energy of big systems (20 000 atoms in the…
We study the minimal length elements in some double cosets of Coxeter groups and use them to study Lusztig's $G$-stable pieces and the generalization of $G$-stable pieces introduced by Lu and Yakimov. We also use them to study the minimal…
In certain finite posets, the expected down-degree of their elements is the same whether computed with respect to either the uniform distribution or the distribution weighting an element by the number of maximal chains passing through it.…
We introduce layer systems for proving generalizations of the modularity of confluence for first-order rewrite systems. Layer systems specify how terms can be divided into layers. We establish structural conditions on those systems that…
We extend properties of the weak order on finite Coxeter groups to Weyl groupoids admitting a finite root system. In particular, we determine the topological structure of intervals with respect to weak order, and show that the set of…
For a lattice L, let Princ L denote the ordered set of principal congruences of L. In a pioneering paper, G. Gratzer characterized the ordered sets Princ L of finite lattices L; here we do the same for countable lattices. He also showed…
We investigate the relation of countable closed subsets of the reals with respect to continuous monotone embeddability; we show that there are exactly aleph_1 many equivalence classes with respect to this embeddability relation. This is an…
In this paper we prove in a constructing way that exceptional Charlier, Meixner, Hermite and Laguerre polynomials satisfy higher order recurrence relations. Our conjecture is that the recurrence relations provided in this paper have minimal…
We study preorders on (equivalence classes of) maximal chains in the general context of polygonal lattices endowed with suitably nice edge labellings. We show that, given a quotient of polygonal lattices, such edge labellings descend to the…
We propose a family of mixed finite elements that are robust for the nearly incompressible strain gradient model, which is a fourth-order singular perturbed elliptic system. The element is similar to [C. Taylor and P. Hood, Comput. &…
This note presents a descending method that allows us to classify quotients of Reed-Muller codes of lenghth 128 under the action of the affine general linear group.
We consider partially ordered sets of combinatorial structures under consecutive orders, meaning that two structures are related when one embeds in the other such that `consecutive' elements remain consecutive in the image. Given such a…
We enlarge a Coxeter group into a category, with one object for each finite parabolic subgroup, encoding the combinatorics of double cosets. This category, the singular Coxeter monoid, is connected to the geometry of partial flag varieties.…
We study the action of monads on categories equipped with several monoidal structures. We identify the structure and conditions that guarantee that the higher monoidal structure is inherited by the category of algebras over the monad.…
