This paper is the continuation of \cite{CXY}. Let ${\bf G}$ be a simply connected semisimple algebraic group over $\Bbbk=\bar{\mathbb{F}}_q$, the algebraically closure of $\mathbb{F}_q$ (the finite field with $q=p^e$ elements), and $F$ be…
In the additive topological group $(\mathbb{R},+)$ of real numbers, we construct families of sets for which elements are not measurable in the Lebesgue sense. The constructed families have algebraic structures of being semigroups (i.e.,…
Intrigued by a well-known theorem of Mathieu's on Harish-Chandra modules over the Virasoro algebra, we give an analogous result for a class of Block type Lie algebras $\BB$, where the parameter $q$ is a nonzero complex number. We also…
Given a compact smooth totally real immersed $n$-submanifold $M\subset\mathbb C^n$ with only finitely many transverse double points, it is known that if $M$ is Lagrangian with respect to some K{\"a}hler form on $\mathbb C^n$, then it is…
The existing classification of homogeneous quaternionic spaces is not complete. We study these spaces in the context of certain $N=2$ supergravity theories, where dimensional reduction induces a mapping between {\em special} real, K\"ahler…
The main purpose of this paper is to investigate the zero-divisors of semigroups with zero and semirings and in particular, to discuss eversible and reversible semigroups and semirings. We also introduce a new ring-like algebraic structure…
We present a uniform treatment of rigid supersymmetric field theories in a curved spacetime $\mathcal{M}$, focusing on four-dimensional theories with four supercharges. Our discussion is significantly simpler than earlier treatments,…
Let $D$ be a quaternion division algebra over a non-archimedean local field $F$ of characteristic zero. Let $E/F$ be a quadratic extension and $\rm{SL}_{n}^{*}(E) = {\rm{GL}}_{n}(E) \cap \rm{SL}_{n}(D)$. We study distinguished…
The orthogonal groups are a series of simple Lie groups associated to symmetric bilinear forms. There is no analogous series associated to symmetric trilinear forms. We introduce an infinite dimensional group-like object that can be viewed…
We establish a canonical and unique tensor product for commutative monoids and groups in an infinity-category C which generalizes the ordinary tensor product of abelian groups. Using this tensor product we show that E_n-(semi)ring objects…
Let $n$ be the maximal nilpotent subalgebra of a simple complex Lie algebra $g$. We introduce the notion of imaginary vector in the dual canonical basis of $U_q(n)$, and we give examples of such vectors for types $A_n (n\ge 5)$, $B_n (n\ge…
For any n>3, we give a family of finite dimensional irreducible representations of the braid group B_n. Moreover, we give a subfamily parametrized by 0<m<n of dimension the combinatoric number (n,m). The representation obtained in the case…
This dissertation comprises three collections of results, all united by a common theme. The theme is the study of categories via algebraic techniques, considering categories themselves as algebraic objects. This algebraic approach to…
Among the nondegenerate C^4 hypersurfaces M in R^n, we characterize the rational quadrics as the hypersurfaces that are the least well approximated by rational points. Given M other than a rational quadric, we prove a heuristically sharp…
We describe a straightforward construction of the pseudo-split absolutely pseudo-simple groups of minimal type with irreducible root systems of type $BC_n$; these exist only in characteristic $2$. We also give a formula for the dimensions…
In this paper, we investigate subnormal subgroups of the multiplicative group of an almost locally simple artinian algebra with involution. In particular, we show that if either the set of traces or the set of norms of such a subgroup with…
Braided groups and braided matrices are novel algebraic structures living in braided or quasitensor categories. As such they are a generalization of super-groups and super-matrices to the case of braid statistics. Here we construct braided…
One can identify a tripartite classification of random matrix ensembles into geometrical universality classes corresponding to the plane, the sphere and the anti-sphere. The plane is identified with Ginibre-type (iid) matrices and the…
We classify the Sch\"utzenberger groups of the category of matrices over the tropical semiring, $M(\mathbb{T})$, in doing so, we obtain a classification for the Sch\"utzenberger groups of the semigroupoid of matrices over the finitary…
Any oriented 4-dimensional real vector bundle is naturally a line bundle over a bundle of quaternion algebras. In this paper we give an account of modules over bundles of quaternion algebras, discussing Morita equivalence, characteristic…
