In this article, we study the geometric invariant theory (GIT) compactification of quintic threefolds. We study singularities, which arise in non-stable quintic threefolds, thus giving a partial description of the stable locus. We also give…

In \cite[\S1.3]{Br2}, some unitary representations of ${\rm GL}_2(\mathbf{Q}_p)$ on $p$-adic Banach spaces are associated to 2-dimensional irreducible crystalline representations of ${\rm Gal}(\bar{\mathbf{Q}}_p)/\mathbf{Q}_p)$. Some…

We consider spinor representations of the conformal group. The spacetime is constructed by the 15-dimensional vectors in the adjoint representation of $SO(2,4)$. On the spacetime, we construct a gravitational model that is invariant under…

We offer a groupoid-theoretic approach to computing invariants. We illustrate this approach by describing the Gel'fand-MacPherson correspondence and the Gale transform as well as giving Zariski-local descriptions of the moduli space of…

Let $K$ be the compact Lie group $USp(N/2)$ or $SO(N, R)$. Let $M^K_n$ be the moduli space of framed K-instantons over $S^4$ with the instanton number $n$. By Donaldson (1984), $M^K_n$ is endowed with a natural scheme structure. It is a…

Starting by revisiting Special Relativity, here we provide a reliable characterization of the entire 4-dimensional fundamental structures in our reality where the frame of discrete tangent space of $F^{1,3}$ is quantized to massless,…

We describe the centralizer of irreducible representations from a finitely generated group $\Gamma$ to $PSL(p,\mathbb{C})$ where $p$ is a prime number. This leads to a description of the singular locus (the set of conjugacy classes of…

An extended local Lorentz symmetry in four-dimensional (4D) theory is considered. A source of this symmetry is a group of general linear transformations of four-component Majorana spinors GL(4,M) which is isomorphic to GL(4,R) and is the…

Let us consider the group $G = < x,y \mid x^m = y^n>$ with $m$ and $n$ nonzero integers. In this paper, we study the variety of epresentations $R(G)$ and the character variety $X(G)$ in $SL(2,\C)$ of the group $G$,obtaining by elementary…

For a unitary unramified genuine principal series representation of a covering group, we study the associated R-group. We prove a formula relating the R-group to the dimension of the Whittaker space for the irreducible constituents of such…

For a prime $p,$ let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite extension of $\mathbb{F}_p.$ The restriction of an irreducible mod $p$ representation of $\text{GL}_2(\mathbb{F}_q)$ to its subgroup $\text{GL}_2(\mathbb{F}_p)$ can be seen as a tensor product…

If a finite group $G$ acts on a rational homology manifold, then the orbit space is well-known to be a rational homology manifold again. We consider here actions on spaces that may be much more singular. If the $G$-space is a Witt…

Given a closed four-manifold $X$ with an indefinite intersection form, we consider smoothly embedded surfaces in $X \setminus $int$(B^4)$, with boundary a knot $K \subset S^3$. We give several methods to bound the genus of such surfaces in…

We continue the study of irreducible representations of the exceptional Lie superalgebra E(3,6). This is one of the two simple infinite-dimensional Lie superalgebras of vector fields which have a Lie algebra sl(3)\times sl(2)\times gl(1) as…

This paper expands on and refines some known and less well-known results about the finite subset spaces of a simplicial complex $X$ including their connectivity and their top homology groups. It also discusses the inclusion of the…

We study the breaking of a supersymmetric SO(10) GUT in 6 dimensions by orbifold compactification. In 4 dimensions we obtain a N=1 supersymmetric theory with the standard model gauge group enlarged by an additional U(1) symmetry. The…

First, we review the basic mathematical structures and results concerning the gauge orbit space stratification. This includes general properties of the gauge group action, fibre bundle structures induced by this action, basic properties of…

Let $F$ be an infinite division ring, $V$ be a left $F$-vector space, $r>0$ be an integer. We study the structure of the representation of the linear group $\mathrm{GL}_F(V)$ in the vector space of formal finite linear combinations of…
