We study invariant theory of the general linear supergroup in positive characteristic. In particular, we determine when the symmetric group algebra acts faithfully on tensor superspace and demonstrate that the symmetric group does not…

Let $G$ be an abelian group and $\mathbb{K}$ an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. A. Valenti and M. Zaicev described the $G$-gradings on upper block-triangular matrix algebras provided that $G$ is finite. We prove that…

We consider certain functional identities on the matrix algebra $M_n$ that are defined similarly as the trace identities, except that the "coefficients" are arbitrary polynomials, not necessarily those expressible by the traces. The main…

Using anisotropic R-matrices associated with affine Lie algebras $\hat g$ (specifically, $A_{2n}^{(2)}, A_{2n-1}^{(2)}, B_n^{(1)}, C_n^{(1)}, D_n^{(1)}$) and suitable corresponding K-matrices, we construct families of integrable open…

With each antiholomorphic involution $\sigma $ of a connected complex semisimple Lie group $G$ we associate an automorphism $\epsilon_\sigma$ of the Dynkin diagram. The definition of $\epsilon_\sigma$ is given in terms of the Satake diagram…

It is shown that if the decoherence matrix corresponding to a qubit master equation has a block-diagonal real part, then the evolution is determined by a one-dimensional oscillator equation. Further, when the full decoherence matrix is…

We examine the large $N$ 1/4-BPS spectrum of the symmetric orbifold CFT Sym$^N(M)$ deformed to the supergravity point in moduli space for $M= K3$ and $T^4$. We consider refinement under both left- and right-moving $SU(2)_R$ symmetries of…

In this paper, we study a family of infinite-dimensional Lie algebras $\widehat{X}_{S}$, where $X$ stands for the type: $A,B,C,D$, and $S$ is an abelian group, which generalize the $A,B,C,D$ series of trigonometric Lie algebras. Among the…

A real seminormed involutive algebra is a real associative algebra ${\mathcal A}$ endowed with an involutive antiautomorphism $*$ and a submultiplicative seminorm $p$ with $p(a^*) =p(a)$ for $a\in {\mathcal A}$. Then ${\mathop{\tt…

We characterize all the multiple orthogonal threefold symmetric polynomial sequences whose sequence of derivatives is also multiple orthogonal. Such a property is commonly called the Hahn property and it is an extension of the concept of…

We describe those group algebras over fields of characteristic different from 2 whose units symmetric with respect to the classical involution, satisfy some group identity.

We define and investigate a family of permutations matrices, called shuffling matrices, acting on a set of $N=n_1\cdots n_m$ elements, where $m\geq 2$ and $n_i\geq 2$ for any $i=1,\ldots, m$. These elements are identified with the vertices…

In this paper, we study the representations of the triplet group $L_n$, where $n$ is a positive integer, and its extensions to the virtual and welded triplet groups $VL_n$ and $WL_n$, respectively. We first introduce $L_n$, its extensions,…

In this paper we prove the case $dim(V_3)=3$ of a conjecture about the exterior operad ${\Lambda}^{S^2}_{V_d}$. For this we introduce a collection of natural involutions on the set of homogeneous cycle-free $d$-partitions of the complete…

Permutation invariant polynomial functions of matrices have previously been studied as the observables in matrix models invariant under $S_N$, the symmetric group of all permutations of $N$ objects. In this paper, the permutation invariant…

A map is given showing that convolutions of independent random variables over a finite group and matrix multiplications of doubly stochastic matrices are homomorphic. As an application, a short proof is given to the theorem that the…

We consider the action on $\mathbb{F}_2^n$ by cyclic permutations ($\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$). Two elements $x, y\in \mathbb{F}_2^n$ are in the same orbit if they are cyclic shifts of each other. Cryptographic properties of rotation…

We determine invariants like the Smith normal form and the determinant for certain integral matrices which arise from the character tables of the symmetric groups S_n and their double covers. In particular, we give a simple computation,…

We define three families of quivers in which the braid relations of the symmetric group $S_n$ are realized by mutations and automorphisms. A sequence of eight braid moves on a reduced word for the longest element of $S_4$ yields three…
