Let $k$ be a field. We consider triples $(V,U,T)$, where $V$ is a finite dimensional $k$-space, $U$ a subspace of $V$ and $T \:V \to V$ a linear operator with $T^n = 0$ for some $n$, and such that $T(U) \subseteq U$. Thus, $T$ is a…

We consider the category $\mathcal S(n)$ of all pairs $X = (U,V)$, where $V$ is a finite-dimensional vector space with a nilpotent operator $T$ with $T^n = 0$, and $U$ is a subspace of $V$ such that $T(U) \subseteq U$. Our main interest in…

We study systems $(V,T,U_1,U_2)$ consisting of a finite dimensional vector space $V$, a nilpotent $k$-linear operator $T:V\to V$ and two $T$-invariant subspaces $U_1\subset U_2\subset V$. Let $\mathcal S(n)$ be the category of such systems…

Let $V$ denote a vector space over C with finite positive dimension. By a {\em Leonard triple} on $V$ we mean an ordered triple of linear operators on $V$ such that for each of these operators there exists a basis of $V$ with respect to…

In this paper, we are mainly concerned with studying arbitrary unbounded square roots of linear operators as well as some of their basic properties. The paper contains many examples and counterexamples. As an illustration, we give explicit…

Let ${\mathfrak g}$ be a finite dimensional Lie algebra over a field of characteristic 0, with solvable radical ${\mathfrak r}$ and nilpotent radical ${\mathfrak n}=[{\mathfrak g},{\mathfrak r}]$. Given a finite dimensional ${\mathfrak…

We give a geometric classification of $n$-dimensional nilpotent, commutative nilpotent and anticommutative nilpotent algebras. We prove that the corresponding geometric varieties are irreducible, find their dimensions and describe explicit…

In the present paper we continue the project of systematic construction of invariant differential operators on the example of the non-compact algebras $su(n,n)$. Earlier were given the main multiplets of indecomposable elementary…

In this paper, we investigate the Leibniz triple system $T$ and its universal Leibniz envelope $U(T)$. The involutive automorphism of $U(T)$ determining $T$ is introduced, which gives a characterization of the $\Z_2$-grading of $U(T)$. We…

In the present paper we review our project of systematic construction of invariant differential operators on the example of the non-compact algebras su(n,n) for n=2,3,4. We give explicitly the main multiplets of indecomposable elementary…

Let $M$ be an $n$-dimensional manifold, $V$ the space of a representation $\rho: GL(n)\longrightarrow GL(V)$. Locally, let $T(V)$ be the space of sections of the tensor bundle with fiber $V$ over a sufficiently small open set $U\subset M$,…

The problem of classifying tuples of nilpotent matrices over a field under simultaneous conjugation is considered "hopeless". However, for any given matrix order over a finite field, the number of concerned orbits is always finite. This…

We show a surprising link between singularity theory and the invariant subspace problem of nilpotent operators as recently studied by C. M. Ringel and M. Schmidmeier, a problem with a longstanding history going back to G. Birkhoff. The link…

We give a criterion for a positive mapping on the space of operators on a Hilbert space to be indecomposable. We show that this criterion can be applied to two families of positive maps. These families of maps can then be used to form…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $p\geqslant 0$, let $H$ be a proper closed subgroup of $G$ and let $V$ be a nontrivial irreducible $KG$-module, which is $p$-restricted, tensor…

The type and several invariant subspaces related to the upper annihilating series of finite-dimensional nilpotent evolution algebras are introduced. These invariants can be easily computed from any natural basis. Some families of nilpotent…

Tom Leinster gave a bijective correspondence between the set of operators on a finite-dimensional vector space $V$ and the set of pairs consisting of a nilpotent operator and a vector in $V$. Over a finite field this bijection implies that…

We present two novel results about Hilbert space operators which are nilpotent of order two. First, we prove that such operators are indestructible complex symmetric operators, in the sense that tensoring them with any operator yields a…

We determine the indecomposable characters of several classes of infinite dimensional groups associated with operator algebras, including the unitary groups of arbitrary unital simple AF algebras and II$_1$ factors.

Let $\mathcal M$ be a factor von Neumann algebra with separable predual and let $T\in \mathcal M$. We call $T$ an irreducible operator (relative to $\mathcal M$) if $W^*(T)$ is an irreducible subfactor of $\mathcal M$, i.e., $W^*(T)'\cap…
