For a finite group $G$, we consider the zeta function $\zeta_G(s) = \sum_{H} \abs{H}^{-s}$, where $H$ runs over the subgroups of $G$. First we give simple examples of abelian $p$-group $G$ and non-abelian $p$-group $G'$ of order $p^m, \; m…

Let $U$ be a unitary operator acting on the Hilbert space H, and $\alpha:\{1,..., m\}\mapsto\{1,..., k\}$ a partition of the set $\{1,..., m\}$. We show that the ergodic average $$ \frac{1}{N^{k}}\sum_{n_{1},...,n_{k}=0}^{N-1}…

$f$-electron systems exhibit a subtle interplay between strong spin--orbit coupling and crystal-field effects, producing complex energy landscapes that are computationally demanding. We introduce auxiliary functions, constructed by…

We first describe, over a field K of characteristic different from 2, the orbits for the adjoint actions of the Lie groups PGL(2, K) and PSL(2, K) on their Lie algebra sl(2, K). While the former are well known, the latter lead to the…

Let $q$ be an odd prime, $m$ a positive integer, and let $\Ga_m(q)$ be the group generated by two elements $x$ and $y$ subject to the relations $x^{2m}=y^{qm}=1$ and $x^2=y^q$; that is, $\Ga_m(q)$ is the free product of two cyclic groups of…

We compute Euler characteristics of p-subgroup categories of finite groups

We consider two related formulations for mass generation in the $U(1)$ Higgs-Kibble model and in the Standard Model (SM). In the first model there are no scalar self-interactions and, in the case of the SM, the formulation is related to the…

Let $n,N\in \mathbb{N}$ with $\Omega \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ open. Given $H \in C^2(\Omega \times \mathbb{R}^N\times \mathbb{R}^{Nn}),$ we consider the functional \[ \tag{1} \label{1} E_\infty (u,\mathcal{O})\, :=\,…

The group $GL(2,Z)$ acts in a natural way on the set of pairs of $n\times n$-matrices determined up to a simultaneous conjugation. For $n=3$ we write explicit formulas for action of generators of $GL(2,Z)$ in the terms of spectral data of…

Let G be a simple algebraic group of adjoint type over an algebraically closed field of bad characteristic. We show that its sheets of conjugacy classes are parametrized by G-conjugacy classes of pairs (M,O) where M is the identity…

We improve on all the results of [13] by incorporating the finite range computations performed since then by several authors. Thus we have \begin{align*} \Bigg|\sum_{n\le X}\mu(n)\Bigg| &\le \frac{0.006688\,X}{\log X},&&\text{for } X\ge…

We study the H\"{o}lder solvability of a class of complex vector fields on the torus $\mathbb{T}^2$. We make use of the Theta function to associate a Cauchy-Pompeiu type integral operator. A similarity principle for the solutions of the…

In a private communication, K. Ono conjectured that any mock theta function of weight 1/2 or 3/2 can be congruent modulo a prime $p$ to a weakly holomorphic modular form for just a few values of $p$. In this paper we describe when such a…

The zeta and Moebius transforms over the subset lattice of $n$ elements and the so-called subset convolution are examples of unary and binary operations on set functions. While their direct computation requires $O(3^n)$ arithmetic…

We consider the groups G which arise from real semisimple Jordan algebras via the Tits-Koecher-Kantor construction. Such a G is characterized by the fact that it admits a parabolic subgroup P=LN which is conjugate to its opposite, and for…

Let $F$ be a local non-archimedian field, $G$ a semisimple $F$-group, $dg$ a Haar measure on $G$ and $\mathcal S(G)$ be the space of locally constant complex valued functions $f$ on $G$ with compact support. For any regular elliptic…

In this paper we study the modular structure of the permutation module $H^{(2^n)}$ of the symmetric group $S_{2n}$ acting on set partitions of a set of size $2n$ into $n$ sets each of size $2$, defined over a field of odd characteristic…

Alladi's duality identities (1977) provide a fundamental relation between the smallest and the $k$-th largest prime factors of integers. In this paper, we establish these dualities in the setting of global function fields, extending a…

We prove several reality properties for finite simple orthogonal groups. For any prime power $q$ and $m\geq 1$, we show that all real conjugacy classes are strongly real in the simple groups $\mathrm{P}\Omega^{\pm}(4m+2,q), m \geq 1$,…

Let $F$ be a rational function of one complex variable of degree $m\geq 2$. The function $F$ is called simple if for every $z\in \mathbb C\mathbb P^1$ the preimage $F^{-1}\{z\}$ contains at least $m-1$ points. We show that if $F$ is a…
