Let $\mathbb F_q$ be a finite field with $q$ elements, where $q$ is a power of an odd prime $p$. In this paper we associate circulant matrices and quadratic forms with the Artin-Schreier curve $y^q - y= x \cdot F(x) - \lambda,$ where $F(x)$…

The article demonstrates the procedure how to compute the Zariski closure of an orbit by an algebraic action of finitely generated group on the affine plane. First half of the algorithm is about deciding whether given finitely generated…

Let $R$ be a commutative $k-$algebra over a field $k$. Assume $R$ is a noetherian, infinite, integral domain. The group of $k-$automorphisms of $R$,i.e.$Aut_k(R)$ acts in a natural way on $(R-k)$.In the first part of this article, we study…

The configuration space C^n of unordered n-tuples of distinct points on a torus T^2 is a non-singular complex algebraic variety. We study holomorphic self-maps of C^n and prove that for n>4 any such map F either carries the whole of C^n…

Let $S=\{x^2+c_1, x^2+c_2,\dots, x^2+c_s\}$ be a set of quadratic polynomials with rational coefficients, and let $P$ be a rational basepoint. We classify the pairs $(S,P)$ for which $P$ has finite orbit for $S$, assuming that the maximum…

We define train track maps for graphs-of-groups $\cal G$ and exhibit the precise conditions under which the fundamental finiteness properties known for classical train track maps extend to this generalization. These finiteness properties…

We explore orbits, rational invariant functions, and quotients of the natural actions of connected, not necessarily finite dimensional subgroups of the automorphism groups of irreducible algebraic varieties. The applications of the results…

We give new classes of examples of orbits of the diagonal group in the space of unit volume lattices in R^d for d > 2 with nice (homogeneous) orbit closures, as well as examples of orbits with explicitly computable but irregular orbit…

We consider the groups of regular circulant matrices over finite fields and integer residue class rings. In both cases we present a formula for the order of these groups. We also make a first step towards finding the algebraic structure of…

We reduce the computation of Poisson traces on quotients of symplectic vector spaces by finite subgroups of symplectic automorphisms to a finite one, by proving several results which bound the degrees of such traces as well as the dimension…

For a Latt\`es map $\phi:\mathbb P^1 \to \mathbb P^1$ defined over a number field $K$, we prove a conjecture on the integrality of points in the backward orbit of $P\in \mathbb P^1(\overline K)$ under $\phi$.

A generalization of G-sets, called partial G-sets, are the sets that admit an action of partial maps on their subsets. Partial actions are a powerful tool to generalize many results of group actions. These generalizations are obtained by…

Let X be a 2-sphere with n punctures. We classify all conjugacy classes of Zariski-dense representations $$\rho: \pi_1(X)\to SL_2(\mathbb{C})$$ with finite orbit under the mapping class group of X, such that the local monodromy at one or…

We study the distribution of non-discrete orbits of geometrically finite groups in $\operatorname{SO}(n,1)$ acting on $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, and more generally on the quotient of $\operatorname{SO}(n,1)$ by a horospherical subgroup. Using…

In this paper, we classify the groups of semisimilarities of finite classical polar spaces with exactly two orbits on the singular or isotropic points. As a byproduct, we obtain many highly symmetric regular sets in the point graphs of…

For each element $u$ in a finite group $G$ define a map $\theta_u\colon G\to G$ by $\theta_u(g)=[g^{-u},g]$ and set $\Theta_G(u)=\{g\in G\mid \theta_u^n(g)=g \hbox{ for some } n>0\}$. Then $\theta_u$ induces a permutation of $\Theta_G(u)$;…

We observe that, for each positive integer n > 2, each of the Artin groups of finite type A_n, B_n=C_n, and affine type \tilde A_{n-1} and \tilde C_{n-1} is a central extension of a finite index subgroup of the mapping class group of the…

We study certain cases of convoluted Fourier coefficients of $GL_n$-automorphic functions. We establish identities that express them in terms of Fourier coefficients related to unipotent orbits. The most general case that is studied is…

We completely characterize orbit reflexivity and R-orbit reflexivity for square matrices over the real numbers. Unlike the complex case in which every matrix is orbit reflexive and C-orbit reflexivity is characterized solely in terms of the…

We examine the orbits of the (complex) symplectic group, $Sp_n$, on the flag manifold, $\mathscr{F}\ell(\mathbb{C}^{2n})$, in a very concrete way. We use two approaches: we Gr\"obner degenerate the orbits to unions of Schubert varieties…
