Let $X$ be a compact metric space, and let $A$ be a pure $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra. We show that $C(X,A)$ is pure whenever $A$ is simple; or every quotient of $A$ is stably finite (e.g., $A$ has stable rank one). Using permanence properties of…

This paper shows that in general, difference fields do not have a difference closure. However, we introduce a stronger notion of closure (kappa-closure), and show that every algebraically closed difference field K of characteristic 0, with…

We introduce a combinatorial criterion for verifying whether a formula is not the conjunction of an equation and a co-equation. Using this, we give a proof for the nonequationality of the free group. Furthermore, we generalize the latter…

It is well known that a finite-dimensional Lie algebra over a field of characteristic zero is simple exactly when its derivation algebra is simple. In this paper we characterize those Lie algebras of arbitrary dimension over any field that…

Given a base point free linear system on an algebraic variety, many classes of singularities are stable under taking suitable members after enlarging the base field. We establish analogous results when the base ring is an excellent ring.

Assume that $A$ is a closed linear operator defined on all of a Hilbert space $H$. Then $A$ is bounded. A new short proof of this classical theorem is given on the basis of the uniform boundedness principle. The proof can be easily extended…

We define an easily verifiable notion of an atomic formula having uniformly bounded arrays in a structure $M$. We prove that if $T$ is a complete $L$-theory, then $T$ is mutually algebraic if and only if there is some model $M$ of $T$ for…

We introduce a class of theories called metastable, including the theory of algebraically closed valued fields (ACVF) as a motivating example. The key local notion is that of definable types dominated by their stable part. A theory is…

Let $A$ be a finite-dimensional algebra with two simple modules. It is shown that if the derived category of $A$ admits a stratification with simple factors being the base field $k$, then $A$ is derived equivalent to a quasi-hereditary…

The (.)_reg construction was introduced in order to make an arbitrary semigroup S divide a regular semigroup (S)_reg which shares some important properties with S (e.g., finiteness, subgroups, torsion bounds, J-order structure). We show…

In this report we summarize this work, all finite simple groups $G$ can determined uniformly using their orders $|G|$ and the set $\pi_e(G)$ of their element orders.

Let $G$ be a finite group. There is a standard theorem on the classification of $G$-equivariant finite dimensional simple commutative, associative, and Lie algebras (i.e., simple algebras of these types in the category of representations of…

Let $K$ be a $p$-adically closed field and $G$ a group interpretable in $K$. We show that if $G$ is definably semisimple (i.e. $G$ has no definable infinite normal abelian subgroups) then there exists a finite normal subgroup $H$ such that…

We prove that, for simple modules $M$ and $N$ over a quantum affine algebra, their tensor product $M \otimes N$ has a simple head and a simple socle if $M \otimes M$ is simple. A similar result is proved for the convolution product of…

We give one more proof of the fact that symplectic matrices over real and complex fields have determinant one. While this has already been proved many times, there has been lasting interest in finding an elementary proof. Our result is…

This paper provides a complete suite of axioms for a version of set theory that I call Explication. Explication borrows from the two most prominent existing systems of set theory. Explication starts with class variables. After several…

We answer a question of Pakhomov by showing that there is a consistent, c.e. theory $T$ such that no theory which is definitionally equivalent to $T$ has a computable model. A key tool in our proof is the model-theoretic notion of mutual…

We survey work on the paradigm called "computing by observing." Its central feature is that one considers the behavior of an evolving system as the result of a computation. To this end an observer records this behavior. It has turned out…

We determine all entire functions $f$ such that for nonzero complex values $a\neq b$ the implications $f=a \Rightarrow f' =a$ and $f' =b \Rightarrow f=b$ hold. This solves an open problem in uniqueness theory. In this context we give a…

I give a short proof of the following algebraic statement: if a vertex algebra is simple, then its underlying Lie conformal algebra is either abelian, or it is an irreducible central extension of a simple Lie conformal algebra.
