We study how a countable algebraic root set passes to a fractal connectedness locus. Let $D_n=\{-n+1,-n+2,\ldots,n-1\}$, and let $R_n$ be the set of roots of monic polynomials whose non-leading coefficients lie in $D_n$. We study…

Finite dimensional modular Lie superalgebras over algebraically closed fields with indecomposable Cartan matrices are classified under some technical, most probably inessential, hypotheses. If the Cartan matrix is invertible, the…

Exact representations of real numbers such as the signed digit representation or more generally linear fractional representations or the infinite Gray code represent real numbers as infinite streams of digits. In earlier work by the first…

For modules over group rings we introduce the following numerical parameter. We say that a module A over a ring R has finite r-generator property if each f.g. (finitely generated) R-submodule of A can be generated exactly by r elements and…

$\DeclareMathOperator{\Int}{Int} \DeclareMathOperator{\IntR}{Int{}^\text{R}} \newcommand{\Z}{{\mathbb Z}}$Let $D$ be a domain and let $\Int(D)$ and $\IntR(D)$ be the ring of integer-valued polynomials and the ring of integer-valued rational…

Let $S$ be a semigroup, let $n\in\mathbb{N}$ be a positive natural number, let $A,B\subseteq S$, let $\mathcal{U},\mathcal{V}\in\beta S$ and let let $\mathcal{F}\subseteq\{f:S^{n}\rightarrow S\}$. We say that $A$ is $\mathcal{F}$-finitely…

We give the images of the adjoint representations of exceptional simple Lie algebras by matrices over complex numbers. Next, we digitalize these matrices by the use of Maxima, which is a computer algebra system. These digitalized matrices…

The real radical ideal of a system of polynomials with finitely many complex roots is generated by a system of real polynomials having only real roots and free of multiplicities. It is a central object in computational real algebraic…

To a finite quadratic module, that is, a finite abelian group D together with a non-singular quadratic form Q:D --> Q/Z, it is possible to associate a representation of either the modular group, SL(2,Z), or its metaplectic cover, Mp(2,Z),…

Let $A$ be a $d\times n$ integer matrix whose column vectors generate the lattice $\Z^d$, and let $D(R_A)$ be the ring of differential operators on the affine toric variety defined by $A$. We show that the classification of…

Let $d\ge 1$ be an integer and ${\bf r}=(r_0,\dots,r_{d-1}) \in \mathbf{R}^d$. The {\em shift radix system} $\tau_\mathbf{r}: \mathbb{Z}^d \to \mathbb{Z}^d$ is defined by $$ \tau_{{\bf r}}({\bf z})=(z_1,\dots,z_{d-1},-\lfloor {\bf r} {\bf…

The well known binary and decimal representations of the integers, and other similar number systems, admit many generalisations. Here, we investigate whether still every integer could have a finite expansion on a given integer base b, when…

This paper is concerned with various fine properties of the functional \[ \mathbb{D}(A) = \int_{\mathbb{T}^n}{\text{det}}^\frac{1}{n-1}(A(x))\,dx \] introduced in [33]. This functional is defined on $X_p$, which is the cone of matrix fields…

This paper is concerned with the taxonomy of finitely complete categories, based on 'matrix properties' - these are a particular type of exactness properties that can be represented by integer matrices. In particular, the main result of the…

We investigate the problem asking when any square matrix whose entries lie in a finite field of characteristic 2 is decomposable into the sum of a diagonalizable matrix and a nilpotent matrix with index of nilpotency at most 2 and, as a…

We give a new proof of the fact that any finite quadratic module can be decomposed into indecomposable ones. For any indecomposable finite quadratic module, we construct a lattice, and a positive definite lattice, both of which are of the…

We describe a theory of finite sets, and investigate the analogue of Dedekind's theory of natural number systems (simply infinite systems) in this theory. Unlike the infinitary case, in our theory, natural number systems come in differing…

Let $T(A,\mathcal{D})$ be a self-affine set generated by an expanding matrix $A=\left[\begin{array}{rr} p & 0\cr -a & q \end{array}\right]$ and a product digit set $\mathcal{D}=\{0,1,\dots,m-1\}\times \{0,1,\dots,n-1\}$. We provide a…

The theory of finitely supported algebraic structures is related to Pitts theory of nominal sets (by equipping finitely supported sets with finitely supported internal algebraic laws). It represents a reformulation of Zermelo Fraenkel set…

An integral self-affine tile is the solution of a set equation $\mathbf{A} \mathcal{T} = \bigcup_{d \in \mathcal{D}} (\mathcal{T} + d)$, where $\mathbf{A}$ is an $n \times n$ integer matrix and $\mathcal{D}$ is a finite subset of…
