We study representations of the locally unital and locally finite dimensional algebra $B$ associated to the Brauer category $\mathcal B(\delta_0)$ with defining parameter $\delta_0$ over an algebraically closed field $K$ with characteristic…
It is known that the recently discovered representations of the Artin groups of type A_n, the braid groups, can be constructed via BMW algebras. We introduce similar algebras of type D_n and E_n which also lead to the newly found faithful…
A new basis of the $q$-Brauer algebra is introduced, which is a lift of Murphy bases of Hecke algebras of symmetric groups. This basis is a cellular basis in the sense of Graham and Lehrer. Subsequently, using combinatorial language we…
Let $X$ be a smooth proper curve defined over a field $k$. The representability of the relative Picard functor is obstructed by a class $\alpha\in\mathrm{Br}(\mathrm{Pic}_{X/k})$. We show the associated division algebra on…
Suppose $R$ is a commutative ring with identity and a fixed invertible element $q^{\frac{1}{2}}$ such that $q+q^{-1}$ is invertible. For an oriented surface $\Sigma$, let $\mathcal{S}(\Sigma;R)$ denote the Kauffman bracket skein algebra of…
Let F be a global field and A its ring of adeles. Let G:=SL(2). We study the bilinear form B on the space of K-finite smooth compactly supported functions on G(A )/G(F) defined by the formula B (f,g):=B'(f,g)-(M^{-1}CT (f),CT (g)), where B'…
In this paper we construct non-negative gradings on a basic Brauer tree algebra $A_{\Gamma}$ corresponding to an arbitrary Brauer tree $\Gamma$ of type $(m,e)$. We do this by transferring gradings via derived equivalence from a basic Brauer…
Given a magnetic finite group, we consider the similarity classes of magnetic equivariant central simple graded algebras over the complex numbers. We call this set the magnetic equivariant graded Brauer group and its structure as an abelian…
The Witt group of skew hermitian forms over a division algebra $D$ with symplectic involution is shown to be canonically isomorphic to the Witt group of symmetric bilinear forms over the Severi-Brauer variety of $D$ with values in a…
We introduce the marked Brauer algebra and the marked Brauer category. These generalize the analogous constructions for the ordinary Brauer algebra to the setting of a homogeneous bilinear form on a $\mathbb{Z}_2$-graded vector space. We…
A graded-division algebra is an algebra graded by a group such that all nonzero homogeneous elements are invertible. This includes division algebras equipped with an arbitrary group grading (including the trivial grading). We show that a…
We introduce the variety ${\mathfrak B}_{\textrm{sup}}$ of bicommutative superalgebras over an arbitrary field of characteristic different from 2. The variety consists of all nonassociative ${\mathbb Z}_2$-graded algebras satisfying the…
The ring K(G/B) is isomorphic to a quotient of a Laurent polynomial ring by an ideal generated by certain W-symmetric functions and has a basis given by classes O_w, where O_w is the class of the structure sheaf of the Schubert variety X_w.…
Let $\{P_i\}_{1 \leq i \leq r}$ and $\{Q_i\}_{1 \leq i \leq r}$ be two collections of Brauer Severi surfaces (resp. conics) over a field $k$. We show that the subgroup generated by the $P_i's$ in $Br(k)$ is the same as the subgroup…
We define geodesic normal forms for the general series of complex reflection groups G(de,e,n). This requires the elaboration of a combinatorial technique in order to determine minimal word representatives and to compute the length of the…
Let K be a global field, let S be a finite set of primes of K containing the archimedean primes and let A be an abelian variety over K. We generalize the duality theorem established in our paper "On Neron class groups of abelian varieties"…
We determine the central simple algebras D over a functionfield K of trancendence degree two which admit a model of smooth Cayley-Hamilton algebras. This happens if and only if there is a smooth model S of K such that the ramification…

Answering a question of P\'alfy and Pyber, we first prove the following extension of the k(GV)-Problem: Let G be a finite group and A\le Aut(G) such that (|G|,|A|)=1. Then the number of conjugacy classes of the semidirect product GA is at…
