We develop a family of simple rank one theories built over quite arbitrary sequences of finite hypergraphs. (This extends an idea from the recent proof that Keisler's order has continuum many classes, however, the construction does not…

We prove an analogue of the celebrated Hall-Higman theorem, which gives a lower bound for the degree of the minimal polynomial of any semisimple element of prime power order $p^{a}$ of a finite classical group in any nontrivial irreducible…

We apply the quaternionic Jordan form to classify the hypercomplex nilpotent almost abelian Lie algebras in all dimensions and to carry out the complete classification of 12-dimensional hypercomplex almost abelian Lie algebras. Moreover, we…

For a complex quasi-projective manifold with a finite group action, we define higher order generalized Euler characteristics with values in the Grothendieck ring of complex quasi-projective varieties extended by the rational powers of the…

We give conditions under which the monodromy group of an $A$-hypergeometric system is invariant under modifications of the collection of characters $A$. The key ingredient is a Zariski--Lefschetz type theorem for principal $A$-determinants.

We investigate how the concepts of intersection and sums of subobjects carry to exact categories. We obtain a new characterisation of quasi-abelian categories in terms of admitting admissible intersections in the sense of Hassoun and Roy.…

We compute the number of points over finite fields of the character stack associated to a compact surface group and a reductive group with connected centre. We find that the answer is a Polynomial On Residue Classes (PORC). The key…

We investigate the two classes of finite subgroups of SU(3) that are called type C and D in the book of Miller, Blichfeldt and Dickson. We present two theorems which fully determine the form of the generators in a suitable basis. After…

In this paper I present a new and unified method of proving character formulas for discrete series representations of connected Lie groups by applying a Chern character-type construction to the matrix factorizations of [FT] and [FHT3]. In…

Slattery has generalized Brauer's theory of p-blocks of finite groups to pi-blocks of pi-separable groups where pi is a set of primes. In this setting we show that the order of a defect group of a pi-block B is bounded in terms of the…

This note is a short introduction to the Julia-Wolff-Carath\'eodory theorem, and its generalizations in several complex variables, up to very recent results for infinitesimal generators of semigroups.

We present some results on character degree sums in connection with certain characteristics of finite groups such as p-solvability, solvability, supersolvability, and nilpotency. Some of them strengthen known results in the literature.

Let $A$ be an algebra and let $X$ be an $A$-bimodule. A $\Bbb C-$linear mapping $d:A \to X$ is called a generalized Jordan derivation if there exists a Jordan derivation (in the usual sense) $\delta:A \to X$ such that…

We introduce a unified theory of Cartan subgroups and maximal toroids - defined as connected multiplicative type subgroups that are maximal amongst all such subgroups - which holds for all affine algebraic groups over a field, regardless of…

This paper contains an exposition of the theory of character sheaves for reductive groups and some attempts to extend it to other cases: unipotent groups, reductive groups modulo the unipotent radical of a parabolic.

We formalize the concept of a centralizer-respecting homomorphism, surjective homomorphisms which are equivariant with respect to taking the centralizer of a subgroup. There is a functor from the category of centralizer-respecting…

The purpose of this paper is to prove the First and Second Fundamental Theorems of invariant theory for the complex special linear supergroup and discuss the superalgebra of invariants, via the super Plucker relations.

We deal with two forms of the "uniqueness cases" in the classification of large simple $K^*$-groups of finite Morley rank of odd type, where large means the $m_2(G)$ at least three. This substantially extends results known for even larger…

The cohomology of the degree-$n$ general linear group over a finite field of characteristic $p$, with coefficients also in characteristic $p$, remains poorly understood. For example, the lowest degree previously known to contain nontrivial…

We investigate properties of closed approximate subgroups of locally compact groups, with a particular interest for approximate lattices i.e. those approximate subgroups that are discrete and have finite co-volume. We prove an approximate…
