We consider the Noether's problem on the noncommutative real rational functions invariant under the linear action of a finite group. For abelian groups the invariant skew-fields are always rational. We show that for a solvable group the…

Let $M$ be a finitely generated skew field over a ground field $k$, and let $G$ be a finite group of $k$-linear automorphisms of $M$. This paper investigates finite generation of the skew subfield $M^G$ of $G$-invariants in $M$, and…

The paper presents a new algorithmic construction of a finite generating set of rational invariants for the rational action of an algebraic group on the affine space. The construction provides an algebraic counterpart of the moving frame…

The paper is devoted to the problem of finding free generators in the fields of invariants for actions of unipotent groups on affine varieties. We consider the case when the unipotent group is the unipotent radical in an arbitrary parabolic…

We construct irreducible unitary representations of a finitely generated free group which are weakly contained in the left regular representation and in which a given linear combination of the generators has an eigenvalue. When the…

We introduce and study some families of groups whose irreducible characters take values on quadratic extensions of the rationals. We focus mostly on a generalization of inverse semi-rational groups, which we call uniformly semi-rational…

Consider a tensor product of free algebras over a field $k$, the so-called multipartite free algebra $A=k \langle X^{(1)}\rangle\otimes\cdots\otimes k\langle X^{(G)}\rangle$. It is well-known that $A$ is a domain, but not a fir nor even a…

The algebra of invariants of d-tuples of n x n skew-symmetric matrices under the action of the orthogonal group by simultaneous conjugation is considered over an infinite field of characteristic different from two. For n=3 and d>0 a minimal…

We consider the 2-generated free metabelian associative and Lie algebras over the complex field and the invariants of the dihedral groups of finite order acting on these algebras. In the associative case we find a finite set of generators…

The main result of this paper is an explicit construction of the free commutative skew brace -- that is, a skew brace whose circle group is commutative -- on an arbitrary generating set $X$. We embed this object into a set of rational…

Higher genus partition functions of two-dimensional conformal field theories have to be invariants under linear actions of mapping class groups. We illustrate recent results [4,6] on the construction of such invariants by concrete…

A subset S of a group G invariably generates G if G = <s^(g(s)) | s in S> for each choice of g(s) in G, s in S. In this paper we study invariable generation of infinite groups, with emphasis on linear groups. Our main result shows that a…

We address the Noncommutative Noether's Problem on the invariants of Weyl fields for linear actions of finite groups. We prove that if the variety An(k)/G is rational then the Noncommutative Noether's Problem is positively solved for G and…

We show that the invariants of a free associative algebra of finite rank under a linear action of a finite-dimensional Hopf algebra generated by group-like and skew-primitive elements form a finitely generated algebra exactly when the…

This paper solves the rational noncommutative analog of Hilbert's 17th problem: if a noncommutative rational function is positive semidefinite on all tuples of hermitian matrices in its domain, then it is a sum of hermitian squares of…

In this paper we investigate the class of invariant positive definite kernels on the free semigroup on N generators. We provide a combinatorial description of the positivity of the kernel in terms of Dyck paths and then we find a…

We consider an arbitrary representation of the additive group over a field of characteristic zero and give an explicit description of a finite separating set in the corresponding ring of invariants.

We consider absolutely free nonassociative algebras and, more generally, absolutely free algebras with (maybe infinitely) many multilinear operations. Such algebras are described in terms of labeled reduced planar rooted trees. This allows…

In this article we raise some new questions about positive definite functions on free groups, and explain how these are related to more well-known questions. The article is intended as a survey of known results that also offers some new…

Rational transformations of polynomials are extensively studied in the context of finite fields, especially for the construction of irreducible polynomials. In this paper, we consider the factorization of rational transformations with…
