It is known that the variety parametrizing pairs of commuting nilpotent matrices is irreducible and that this provides a proof of the irreducibility of the punctual Hilbert scheme in the plane. We extend this link to the nilpotent commuting…

Firstly, we prove that every closed subgroup $H$ of type-preserving automorphisms of a locally finite thick affine building $\Delta$ of dimension $\geq 2$ that acts strongly transitively on $\Delta$ is Moufang. If moreover $\Delta$ is…

We develop the theory of the higher commutator for Taylor varieties. A new higher commutator operation called the hypercommutator is defined using a type of invariant relation called a higher dimensional congruence. The hypercommutator is…

In commutative algebra, if $\delta$ is a locally nilpotent derivation of the polynomial algebra $K[x_1,\ldots,x_d]$ over a field $K$ of characteristic 0 and $w$ is a nonzero element of the kernel of $\delta$, then $\Delta=w\delta$ is also a…

We show that the presentation of affine $\mathbb{T}$-varieties of complexity one in terms of polyhedral divisors holds over an arbitrary field. We also describe a class of multigraded algebras over Dedekind domains. We study how the algebra…

We consider aspects of the geometry and topology of nilpotent orbits in finite-dimensional complex simple Lie algebras. In particular, we give the equivariant cohomologies of the regular and minimal nilpotent orbits with respect to the…

We show that in the class of solvable Lie algebras there exist algebras which admit local derivations which are not ordinary derivation and also algebras for which every local derivation is a derivation. We found necessary and sufficient…

Given a locally nilpotent derivation on an affine algebra $B$ over a field $k$ of characteristic zero, we consider a finitely generated $B$-module $M$ which admits a locally nilpotent module derivation $\delta_M$ (see Definition 1.1 below).…

We prove a variety of results describing the possible diagonals of tuples of commuting hermitian operators in type $II_1$ factors. These results are generalisations of the classical Schur-Horn theorem to the infinite dimensional,…

The paper is devoted to the investigation of finite dimensional commutative nilpotent (associative) algebras N over an arbitrary base field of characteristic zero. Due to the lack of a general structure theory for algebras of this type (as…

We study the homotopy type of spaces of commuting elements in connected nilpotent Lie groups, via almost commuting elements in their Lie algebras. We give a necessary and sufficient condition on the fundamental group of such a Lie group $G$…

This paper deals with the variety of commutative nonassociative algebras satisfying the identity $L_x^3+ \gamma L_{x^3} = 0$, $\gamma \in K$. Correa et al proved that if $\gamma = 0,1$ then any such finitely generated algebra is nilpotent.…

We prove that a finite-dimensional cocommutative Hopf algebra $H$ is local, if and only if the subalgebra generated by the first term of its coradical filtration $H_1$ is local. In particular if $H$ is connected, $H$ is local if and only if…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $2$. We consider the commuting variety and the commuting nilpotent variety of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sp}_{2n}$, namely the sets $\mathcal{C}_2(\mathfrak{sp}_{2n})=\{ (x,y) \in…

Algebraic actions of unipotent groups $U$ actions on affine $k-$varieties $X$ ($k$ an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0) for which the algebraic quotient $X//U$ has small dimension are considered$.$ In case $X$ is factorial,…

We present a generalized version of classical geometric invariant theory \`a la Mumford where we consider an affine algebraic group $G$ acting on a specific affine algebraic variety $X$. We define the notions of linearly reductive and of…

We consider pairs (V,H) of subgroups of a connected unipotent complex Lie group G for which the induced VxH-action on G by multiplication from the left and from the right is free. We prove that this action is proper if the Lie algebra g of…

We consider invariant covariant derivatives on reductive homogeneous spaces corresponding to the well-known invariant affine connections. These invariant covariant derivatives are expressed in terms of horizontally lifted vector fields on…

An algebraic variety $X$ is called a homogeneous variety if the automorphism group $\mathrm{Aut}(X)$ acts on $X$ transitively, and a homogeneous space if there exists a transitive action of an algebraic group on $X$. We prove a criterion of…

In this paper we provide a characterization of smooth algebraic varieties endowed with a faithful algebraic torus action in terms of a combinatorial description given by Altmann and Hausen. Our main result is that such a variety X is smooth…
