In this note we characterise all finitely generated groups elementarily equivalent to a solvable Baumslag-Solitar group BS$(1,n)$. It turns out that a finitely generated group $G$ is elementarily equivalent to BS$(1,n)$ if and only if $G$…

Let $A$ be an associative algebra with identity and with trace. We study the family of planar algebras on 1-boxes that arise from $A$ in the work of Jones, but with the added assumption that the labels on the 1-boxes come from a discrete…

We show that for every smooth hyperbolic polynomial h there is another hyperbolic polynomial q such that qh has a definite determinantal representation. This is proved by considering sum-of-squares decompositions of certain bilinear forms…

Let $\phi:G \to G$ be a group endomorphism where $G$ is a finitely generated group of exponential growth, and denote by $R(\phi)$ the number of twisted $\phi$-conjugacy classes. Fel'shtyn and Hill \cite{fel-hill} conjectured that if $\phi$…

Consider the space Hom(Z^n,G) of pairwise commuting n-tuples of elements in a compact Lie group G. This forms a real algebraic variety, which is generally singular. In this paper, we construct a desingularization of the generic component of…

Typed decorated trees are used by Bruned, Hairer and Zambotti to give a description of a renormalisation processon stochastic PDEs. We here study the algebraic structures on these objects: multiple prelie algebrasand related operads…

In this paper, we show that any topological knot or link in $S^1 \times S^2$ sits on a planar page of an open book decomposition whose monodromy is a product of positive Dehn twists. As a consequence, any knot or link type in $S^1 \times…

We announce the following result and give several applications: A Hamiltonian $T$-space (for $T$ a torus) with isolated fixed points is cobordant to a disjoint union of weighted projective spaces which are constructed from its fixed point…

We characterize the existence of proper holomorphic mappings in the special class of bounded $(1,2,...,n)$-balanced domains in $\mathbb{C}^n$, called the symmetrized ellipsoids. Using this result we conclude that there are no non-trivial…

We study Nijenhuis structures on Courant algebroids in terms of the canonical Poisson bracket on their symplectic realizations. We prove that the Nijenhuis torsion of a skew-symmetric endomorphism N of a Courant algebroid is skew-symmetric…

We investigate the monotonicity method for fractional semilinear elliptic equations with power type nonlinearities. We prove that if-and-only-if monotonicity relations between coefficients and the derivative of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map…

We prove that Bargmann representations exist for some deformed harmonic oscillators that admit non-Fock representations. In specific cases, we explicitly obtain the resolution of the identity in terms of a true integral on the complex…

We prove that the isomorphism problem is decidable for generalized Baumslag-Solitar (GBS) groups with one quasi-conjugacy class and full support gaps. In order to do so we introduce a family of invariants that fully characterize the…

It is known that locally constant toral extensions of hyperbolic systems can never mix at an exponential rate. In this note we exhibit some examples of non-abelian locally constant compact extensions of the shift map which are exponentially…

We calculate the Dehn twist action on the spaces of conformal blocks of a not necessarily semisimple modular category. In particular, we give the order of the Dehn twists under the mapping class group representations of closed surfaces. For…

We show that complementary series of SO(n,1) which are sufficiently close to a cohomological representation in the Fell topology, upon restriction to SO(n-1,1), contain discretely, complementary series for SO(n-1,1) which are also…

The first (associative) Weyl algebra is formally rigid in the classical sense. In this paper, we show that it can however be formally deformed in a nontrivial way when considered as a so-called hom-associative algebra, and that this…

We provide an explicit algebraic construction for the pullback and direct image of parabolic bundles, parabolic Higgs bundles and parabolic connections through maps between Riemann surfaces. We show that these constructions preserve…

We describe the deformation cohomology of a symplectic groupoid, and use it to study deformations via Moser path methods, proving a symplectic groupoid version of the Moser Theorem. Our construction uses the deformation cohomologies of Lie…

Let $L$ be a restricted Cartan type Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>3$, and let $G$ denote the automorphism group of $L$. We prove that there are no nontrivial invariants of $L^*$ under the coadjoint…
