We consider the action of the finite matrix group $SL(m,Z_n)$ on the ring $Z_n^m$. We determine orbits of this action for n arbitrary natural number. It is a generalization of the task which was studied by A.A. Kirillov for $m=2$ and $n$…

We consider two group actions on $m$-tuples of $n \times n$ matrices. The first is simultaneous conjugation by $\operatorname{GL}_n$ and the second is the left-right action of $\operatorname{SL}_n \times \operatorname{SL}_n$. We give…

We analyze finite orbits of the natural braid group action on the character variety of the $n$ times punctured sphere. Building on recent results relating middle convolution and finite complex reflection groups, our work implements Katz's…

The finite orbits of the braid group action on Stokes matrices are studied and are shown to be the orbits on ordered sets of reflections, generating finite groups. All invariants of a reflection arrangement are determined. Determination of…

Let $G$ be a group. The orbits of the natural action of $Aut(G)$ on $G$ are called the automorphism orbits of $G$, and their number is denoted by $\omega(G)$. Let $\mathbb{F}$ be an infinite field, and let $UT_n(\mathbb{F})$ denote the…

In this article, we study several problems related to virtual traces for finite group actions on schemes of finite type over an algebraically closed field. We also discuss applications to fixed point sets. Our results generalize previous…

We obtain an explicit characterization of the stable points of the action of G=SL(2,C) on the cartesian product G^n by simultaneous conjugation on each factor, in terms of the corresponding invariant functions, and derive from it a simple…

We give a complete classification of the finite $2$-groups $G$ for which the automorphism group $\operatorname{Aut}(G)$ acting naturally on $G$ has three orbits. There are two infinite families and one additional group, of order $2^9$. All…

We classify the finite orbits of the mapping class group action on the character variety of Deroin--Tholozan representations of punctured spheres. In particular, we prove that the action has no finite orbits if the underlying sphere has 7…

We consider an effective action of a compact (n-1)-torus on a smooth 2n-manifold with isolated fixed points. We prove that under certain conditions the orbit space is a closed topological manifold. In particular, this holds for certain…

Let K be a number field, let f: P_1 --> P_1 be a nonconstant rational map of degree greater than 1, let S be a finite set of places of K, and suppose that u, w in P_1(K) are not preperiodic under f. We prove that the set of (m,n) in N^2…

Motivated by problems arising in the relative trace formula and arithmetic invariant theory we prove the existence of rational points on orbits arising from certain infinitesimal symmetric spaces. As an application, we prove analogous…

There are natural actions of the braid groups on the products of the braid groups, called the Hurwitz action. We first study the roots of centralizers in the braid groups. By using the structure of the roots, we provide a criterion for the…

Computational problems concerning the orbit of a point under the action of a matrix group occur throughout computer science, including in program analysis, complexity theory, quantum computation, and automata theory. In many cases the focus…

For $n \in \mathbb{N}$ and a commutative ring $R$ with $2 \in R^{\times}$, the group $SL_n (R)$ acts on the set $Um_n (R)$ of unimodular vectors of length $n$ and $Spin_{2n}(R)$ acts on the set of unit vectors $U_{2n-1}(R)$. We give an…

There is a natural action of the braid group on the symmetric matrices with units on the diagonal, appearing in various fields as Singularity Theory, Frobenius Manifolds or Isomonodromic deformations of certain classes of linear…

We know that $\mathbb{Z}_n$ is a finite field for a prime number $n$. Let $m,n$ be arbitrary natural numbers and let $\mathbb{Z}^m_n= \mathbb{Z}_n \times\mathbb{Z}_n\times...\times\mathbb{Z}_n$ be the Cartesian product of $m$ rings…

A homeomorphism of the $2$-torus with Lefschetz number different from zero has a fixed point. We give a version of this result for nilpotent groups of diffeomorphisms. We prove that a nilpotent group of $2$-torus diffeomorphims has finite…

We study maps on the set of permutations of n generated by the R\'enyi-Foata map intertwined with other dihedral symmetries (of a permutation considered as a 0-1 matrix). Iterating these maps leads to dynamical systems that in some cases…
