In this article, we study the algebraic and dynamical structure of certain normal subgroups of the quasi-isometry group of Euclidean space $QI(\mathbb{R}^n)$. For \[ H = \Big\{ [f] \in QI(\mathbb{R}^n) : \lim_{\|x\|\to\infty}…
Let $\mathfrak{m}$ be an element of an abelian monoid, with $\Omega(\mathfrak{m})$ denoting the total number of prime elements generating $\mathfrak{m}$. We study the moments of $\Omega(\mathfrak{m})$ over subsets of $h$-free and $h$-full…
Let $D$ be a division ring with the center $F=Z(D)$. Suppose that $N$ is a normal subgroup of $D^*$ which is radical over $F$, that is, for any element $x\in N$, there exists a positive integer $n_x$, such that $x^{n_x}\in F$. In…
We establish new characterizations of primitive elements and free factors in free groups, which are based on the distributions they induce on finite groups. For every finite group $G$, a word $w$ in the free group on $k$ generators induces…
Recent work by Huang, Lewis, Morales, Reiner, and Stanton suggests that the regular elliptic elements of $\mathrm{GL}_n \mathbb{F}_q$ are somehow analogous to the $n$-cycles of the symmetric group. In 1981, Stanley enumerated the…
Let $\Bbb F_q$ be a finite field with $\text{char}\,\Bbb F_q=p$ and $n>0$ an integer with $\text{gcd}(n, \log_pq)=1$. Let $(\ )^*:\Bbb F_q({\tt x}_0,\dots,{\tt x}_{n-1})\to\Bbb F_q({\tt x}_0,\dots,{\tt x}_{n-1})$ be the $\Bbb…
Suppose that M is countable, binary, primitive, homogeneous, and simple, and hence 1-based. We prove that the SU-rank of the complete theory of M is~1. It follows that M is a random structure. The conclusion that M is a random structure…
A study of certain Hamiltonian systems has lead Y. Long to conjecture the existence of infinitely many primes of the form $p=2[\alpha n]+1$, where $1<\alpha<2$ is a fixed irrational number. An argument of P. Ribenboim coupled with classical…
Consider an algebraically closed field k and the Cremona group of all birational transformations of the projective plane over k. We characterize infinite order elements of this group having a non-zero power generating a proper normal…
Let $p$ be an odd prime, $F$ a field with a primitive $p^2$th root of unity, and $E=F(\sqrt[p]{b_1},\sqrt[p]{b_2})$ an elementary abelian extension of degree $p^2$. This paper studies the cohomological kernel $H^n(E/F,{\mathbb Z}/p{\mathbb…
This is an introduction to the theory of normal bases of finite fields. The first few chapters cover a wide range of topics on the theory of normal bases of finite fields. Most standard definitions and results, including proofs are given.…
A $1$-prefix normal word is a binary word with the property that no factor has more $1$s than the prefix of the same length; a $0$-prefix normal word is defined analogously. These words arise in the context of indexed binary jumbled pattern…
The normaliser problem has as input two subgroups $H$ and $K$ of the symmetric group $S_n$, and asks for a generating set for $N_K(H)$: it is not known to have a subexponential time solution. It is proved in [Roney-Dougal & Siccha, 2020]…
In [DGLW], we use certain special elements and their commutation relations in the Hecke-Clifford algebras $H^c_{r,R}$ to derive some fundamental multiplication formulas associated with the natural bases in queer $q$-Schur superalgebras…
Both the function and its normal derivative on the element boundary are $Q_k$ polynomials for the Bogner-Fox-Schmit $C^1$-$Q_k$ finite element functions. Mathematically, to keep the optimal order of approximation, their spaces are required…
The class of finitely presented algebras over a field $K$ with a set of generators $a_{1},..., a_{n}$ and defined by homogeneous relations of the form $a_{1}a_{2}... a_{n} =a_{\sigma (a)} a_{\sigma (2)} ... a_{\sigma (n)}$, where $\sigma$…
We study prime monomial algebras. Our main result is that a prime finitely presented monomial algebra is either primitive or it has GK dimension one and satisfies a polynomial identity. More generally, we show this result holds for the…
Can we do a topological study of various classes of normal subgroups endowed with a hull-kernel-type topology? In this paper, we have provided an answer to this question. We have introduced as well a new class of normal subgroups called…
Primordial nucleosynthesis provides a probe of the Universe during its early evolution. Given the progress exploring the constituents, structure, and recent evolution of the Universe, it is timely to review the status of Big Bang…
We discuss arithmetic questions related to the "poor man's ad\`ele ring" $\mathcal A$ whose elements are encoded by sequences $(t_p)_p$ indexed by prime numbers, with each $t_p$ viewed as a residue in $\mathbb Z/p\mathbb Z$. Our main…
