For a group $G$ acting on an affine variety $X$, the separating variety is the closed subvariety of $X\times X$ encoding which points of $X$ are separated by invariants. We concentrate on the indecomposable rational linear representations…

This paper deals with properties of the algebraic variety defined as the set of zeros of a "deficient" sequence of multivariate polynomials. We consider two types of varieties: ideal-theoretic complete intersections and absolutely…

Consider a surface $S$ and let $M\subset S$. If $S\setminus M$ is not connected, then we say $M$ \emph{separates} $S$, and we refer to $M$ as a \emph{separating set} of $S$. If $M$ separates $S$, and no proper subset of $M$ separates $S$,…

This paper is concerned with the problem of determining the number of division algebras which share the same collection of finite splitting fields. As a corollary we are able to determine when two central division algebras may be…

The set of matrix tuples with invariant subspaces whose dimensions sum up to the dimension of the space, but which do not span the whole space form an algebraic hypersurface. We found the equation of this hypersurface. This generalizes…

We study point-separating function sets that are minimal with respect to the property of being separating. We first show that for a compact space $X$ having a minimal separating function set in $C_p(X)$ is equivalent to having a minimal…

Matrix partition problems generalize a number of natural graph partition problems, and have been studied for several standard graph classes. We prove that each matrix partition problem has only finitely many minimal obstructions for split…

A minimal system of homogeneous generating elements of the algebra of covariants for the binary form of degree 8 is calculated.

In this paper we describe graded automorphisms and antiautomorphisms of finite order on matrix algebras endowed with a group gradings by a finite abelian group over an arbitrary algebraically closed field of charcteristic different from 2.

We describe isomorphisms of groups of several periodic infinite matrices and isomorphisms of groups of invertible elements of unital locally matrix algebras.

Generalizing a well known theorem for finite matroids, we prove that for every (infinite) connected matroid M there is a unique tree T such that the nodes of T correspond to minors of M that are either 3-connected or circuits or cocircuits,…

We give a survey of recent results related to the problem of characterizing finite-dimensional division algebras by the set of isomorphism classes of their maximal subfields. We also discuss various generalizations of this problem and some…

Matrix-valued polynomials in any finite number of freely noncommuting variables that enjoy certain canonical partial convexity properties are characterized, via an algebraic certificate, in terms of Linear Matrix Inequalities and Bilinear…

We study mixed multiquadratic field extensions as splitting fields for central simple algebras of exponent $2$ in characteristic $2$. As an application, we provide examples of nonexcellent mixed biquadratic field extensions.

The Known Menger's theorem states that in a finite graph, the size of a minimum separator set of any pair of vertices is equal to the maximum number of disjoint paths that can be found between these two vertices. In this paper, we study the…

Two of many criteria of a good MDS matrix are being involutory and having few different elements. This paper investigates the number of different entries in an involutory MDS matrices of order 1, 2, 3, and 4 over finite fields of…

We provide non-isomorphic finite 2-groups which have isomorphic group algebras over any field of characteristic 2, thus settling the Modular Isomorphism Problem.

The simplest version of the Spin-polynomial invariants of the underlying differentiable structures of algebraic surfaces were considered and the simplest arguments were used in order to distinguish the underlying smooth structures of…

We define degree two cohomological invariants for G-Galois algebras over fields of characteristic not 2, and use them to give necessary conditions for the existence of a self--dual normal basis. In some cases, we show that these conditions…
