We examine the non-symmetric Macdonald polynomials $E_\lambda(x;q,t)$ at $q=1$, as well as the more general permuted-basement Macdonald polynomials. When $q=1$, we show that $E_\lambda(x;1,t)$ is symmetric and independent of $t$ whenever…

We construct series of examples of exotic smooth structures on compact locally symmetric spaces of noncompact type. In particular, we obtain higher rank examples, which do not support Riemannian metric of nonpositive curvature. The examples…

Let S be a principally embedded sl_2 subalgebra in sl_n for n > 2. A special case of results of the third author and Gregg Zuckerman implies that there exists a positive integer b(n) such that for any finite-dimensional irreducible sl_n…

For a subfamily of multiplicative measures on integer partitions we give conditions for properly rescaled associated Young diagrams to converge in probability to a certain deterministic curve named the limit shape of partitions. We provide…

Let $\Lambda$ be a left and right noetherian ring and $\mod \Lambda$ the category of finitely generated left $\Lambda$-modules. In this paper we show the following results: (1) For a positive integer $k$, the condition that the subcategory…

We consider model-theoretic properties related to the expressive power of three analogues of $L_{\omega_1, \omega}$ for metric structures. We give an example showing that one of these infinitary logics is strictly more expressive than the…

During the 2004-2005 academic year the VIGRE algebra research group at the University of Georgia computed the complexities of certain Specht modules S^\lambda for the symmetric group, using the computer algebra program Magma. The complexity…

Let $2<n<m\leq \omega$. Let $\CA_n$ denote the class of cylindric algebras of dimension $n$ and $\RCA_n$ denote the class of representable $\CA_n$s. We say that $\A\in \RCA_n$ is representable up to $m$ if $\Cm\At\A$ has an $m$-square…

Let $P$ be the Gelfand--Tsetlin polytope defined by the skew shape $\lambda/\mu$ and weight $w$. In the case corresponding to a standard Young tableau, we completely characterize for which shapes $\lambda/\mu$ the polytope $P$ is integral.…

For non-compact, locally symmetric moduli spaces M, the set of geodesics and the geometry of the boundary can be completely characterised using group theory. In particular, geodesics that asymptote to a given infinite distance boundary…

We construct a complex $\mathcal{L}_\bullet^\lambda$ resolving the irreducible representations $\mathcal{S}^{\lambda[n]}$ of the symmetric groups $S_n$ by representations restricted from $GL_n(k)$. This construction lifts to…

We prove some structure results for isometries between noncommutative Lp spaces associated to von Neumann algebras. We find that an isometry T: Lp(M_1) to Lp(M_2) (1 le p < infty, p not 2) can be canonically expressed in a certain simple…

Let $\Lambda$ be a $\mathbb{Z}$-graded artin algebra. Two classical results of Gordon and Green state that if $\Lambda$ has only finitely many indecomposable gradable modules, up to isomorphism, then $\Lambda$ has finite representation…

In this paper we confirm a conjecture of Sun which states that each positive integer is a sum of a square, an odd square and a triangular number. Given any positive integer m, we show that p=2m+1 is a prime congruent to 3 modulo 4 if and…

In this paper, we study some properties of a certain kind of permutation $\sigma$ over $\mathbb{F}_{2}^{n}$, where $n$ is a positive integer. The desired properties for $\sigma$ are: (1) the algebraic degree of each component function is…

We describe the complete set of pairwise non-isomorphic irreducible modules S(a) over the algebra R given by the defining relation xy-yx=yy, and the rule how they could be glued to indecomposables. Namely, we show that Ext_k^1(S(a),S(b))=0,…

We prove two criteria for direct sum decomposability of homogeneous polynomials. For a homogeneous polynomial with a non-zero discriminant, we interpret direct sum decomposability of the polynomial in terms of factorization properties of…

Let $\Lambda$ be a smooth Lagrangian submanifold of a complex symplectic manifold $X$. We construct twisted simple holonomic modules along $\Lambda$ in the stack of deformation-quantization modules on $X$.

We review developments made since 1959 in the search for a closed form for the susceptibility of the Ising model. The expressions for the form factors in terms of the nome $q$ and the modulus $k$ are compared and contrasted. The $\lambda$…

In recent work of R. M. Bryant and the second author a (partial) modular analogue of Klyachko's 1974 result on Lie powers of the natural $\rm{GL}(n,K)$ was presented. There is was shown that nearly all of the indecomposable summands of the…
