Let $X$ be a variety of dimension $n$, and let $\mathrm{Aut}(X)$ be its automorphism group. When $X$ is quasi-affine, we prove that a solvable subgroup of $\mathrm{Aut}(X)$ that is generated by an irreducible family of automorphisms…
This work concerns the representation theory and cohomology of a finite unipotent supergroup scheme $G$ over a perfect field $k$ of positive characteristic $p\ge 3$. It is proved that an element $x$ in the cohomology of $G$ is nilpotent if…
The word $w=[x_{i_1},x_{i_2},\dots,x_{i_k}]$ is a simple commutator word if $k\geq 2, i_1\neq i_2$ and $i_j\in \{1,\dots,m\}$, for some $m>1$. For a finite group $G$, we prove that if $i_{1} \neq i_j$ for every $j\neq 1$, then the verbal…
We explore algebraic subgroups of of the Cremona group $\mathcal C_n$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. First, we consider some class of algebraic subgroups of $\mathcal C_n$ that we call flattenable. It contains…
In the present paper, which is a direct sequel of our paper [12] joint with Roozbeh Hazrat, we prove unrelativised version of the standard commutator formula in the setting of Chevalley groups. Namely, let $\Phi$ be a reduced irreducible…
Let $G$ be an affine algebraic group scheme over a field $k$. We show there exists a unipotent normal subgroup of $G$ which contains all other such subgroups; we call it the restricted unipotent radical $\mathrm{Rad}_u(G)$ of $G$. We…
Let $n \geq 2$ be an integer. An \emph{$n$-potent} is an element $e$ of a ring $R$ such that $e^n = e$. In this paper, we study $n$-potents in matrices over $R$ and use them to construct an abelian group $K_0^n(R)$. If $A$ is a complex…
Our main theorem is that the pullback of an associated noncommutative vector bundle induced by an equivariant map of quantum principal bundles is a noncommutative vector bundle associated via the same finite-dimensional representation of…
We introduce a model of random f.g., torsion-free, $2$-step nilpotent groups (in short, $\tau_2$-groups). To do so, we show that these are precisely the groups that admit a presentation of the form $ \label{tau2pres_0}\langle A, C \mid…
The paper was motivated by a question of Vilonen, and the main results have been used by Mirkovic and Vilonen to give a geometric interpretation of the dual group (as a Chevalley group over Z) of a reductive group. We define a…
Let $R$ be a Noetherian local ring of Krull dimension $d$ such that $(d!)R = R$, and let $A$ be a graded $R$-subalgebra of the polynomial algebra $R[t]$. We prove that every unimodular row of length $d + 1$ over $A$ can be completed to an…
This master thesis describes how Selmer groups can be used to determine the Mordell-Weil group of elliptic curves over a number field K. The Mordell-Weil Theorem states that $E(K) = E(K)_{tors} \times Z^r$, where $r$ is the rank of $E$, and…
By using certain quantum differential operators, we construct a super representation for the quantum queer supergroup U_v(q_n). The underlying space of this representation is a deformed polynomial superalgebra in 2n^2 variables whose…
We categorify a class of quantum groups associated with quivers, possibly with loops, by constructing the corresponding Khovanov-Lauda-Rouquier algebras (KLR) algebras $R$. We prove that the indecomposable projective $R$-modules realize the…
We prove that if a group is nilpotent (resp. metabelian), then so is the subgroup of its automorphism group generated by all polynomial automorphisms.
Let V denote a finite dimensional vector space over an algebraically closed field. Let U_0, U_1,..., U_d denote a sequence of nonzero subspaces whose direct sum is V. Let R:V \to V and L:V \to V denote linear maps with the following…
We provide a unified proof of all known examples of locally compact groups that enjoy the Howe-Moore property, namely, the vanishing at infinity of all matrix coefficients of the group unitary representations that are without non-zero…
Let $U_\hbar\mathfrak{g}$ denote the Drinfeld-Jimbo quantum group associated to a complex semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. We apply a modification of the $R$-matrix construction for quantum groups to the evaluation of the universal…
In the theory of Lie groups, the irreducibility of a unitary representation is not preserved in general by restriction to a subgroup. Kirillov's conjecture says that it is preserved for the groups Gl(n,R) or Gl(n,C) when the subgroup is the…
We establish vanishing results for the first cohomology group of nilpotent groups and Lie rings when the submodule of invariants is trivial. Our results are obtained within a model-theoretic setting, namely for structures that are definable…
