We consider bilinear pseudo-differential operators whose symbols posses Gevrey type regularity and may have a sub-exponential growth at infinity, together with all their derivatives. It is proved that those symbol classes can be described…

We introduce the notion of induced birational transformations of irreducible holomorphic symplectic sixfolds of the sporadic deformation type discovered by O'Grady. We give a criterion to determine when a manifold of $OG_6$ type is…

We classify invariant curves for birational surface maps that are expanding on cohomology. When the expansion is exponential, the arithmetic genus of an invariant curve is at most one. This implies severe constraints on both the type and…

We give a definition of atlases for ineffective orbifolds, and prove that this definition leads to the same notion of orbifold as that defined via topological groupoids.

Binomial versions of the Andrews-Gordon-Bressoud identities are given.

Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials are important and mysterious objects in representation theory. Here we present a new formula for their computation for symmetric groups based on the Bruhat graph. Our approach suggests a solution to the…

We survey various classical results on invariants of polynomials, or equivalently, of binary forms, focussing on explicit calculations for invariants of polynomials of degrees 2, 3, 4.

We show that the bicategory of (representable) orbifolds and good maps is equivalent to the bicategory of orbifold translation groupoids and generalized equivariant maps. We use this result to define an orbifold version of Bredon…

We prove a stronger version of the Kontsevich Formality Theorem for orientable manifolds, relating the Batalin-Vilkovisky (BV) algebra of multivector fields and the homotopy BV algebra of multidifferential operators of the manifold.

We construct families of birational involutions on $\mathbb{P}^3$ or a smooth cubic threefold which do not fit into a non-trivial elementary relation of Sarkisov links. As a consequence, we construct new homomorphisms from their group of…

Iterations of odd piecewise continuous maps with two discontinuities, i.e., symmetric discontinuous bimodal maps, are studied. Symbolic dynamics is introduced. The tools of kneading theory are used to study the homology of the discrete…

We introduce a bt-algebra of type B. We define this algebra doing the natural analogy with the original construction of the bt-algebra. Notably we find a basis for it, a faithful tensorial representation, and we prove that it supports a…

In this paper we introduce and discuss some classes of orthogonal polynomials in several non-commuting variables. The emphasis is on a non-commutative version of the orthogonal polynomials on the real line. We introduce recurrence equations…

We survey recent developments in the Birational Anabelian Geometry program aimed at the reconstruction of function fields of algebraic varieties over algebraically closed fields from pieces of their absolute Galois groups.

In this article it is determined which integral reflection representations of the symmetric groups and the primitive complex reflection groups of degree $2$ have rings of invariants which are isomorphic to polynomial rings.

A birational transformation f: P^n --> Z, where Z is a nonsingular variety of Picard number 1, is called a special birational transformation of type (a, b) if f is given by a linear system of degree a, its inverse is given by a linear…

We give a construction of algebraic differential characters, receiving classes of algebraic bundles with connection, lifitng the Chern-Simons invariants defined with S. Bloch, the classes in the Chow group and the analytic secondary…

In the present paper we shall determine all the non-degenerate symmetric invariant bilinear forms on the deformative Schr\"odinger-Virasoro algebras.

In this paper we will survey some recent developments in the last decade or so on variation of Geometric Invariant Theory and its applications to Birational Geometry such as the weak Factorization Theorems of nonsingular projective…

Language theory, symbolic dynamics, modelisation of viral insertion into the genetic code of a host cell motivate the introduction of new types of bialgebras whose coalgebra parts are not necessarily coassociative. One of the aim of this…
