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…

Fix an odd prime $p$ and let $f$ be a non-ordinary eigen-cuspform of weight $k$ and level coprime to $p$. Assuming $p>k-1$, we compute asymptotic formulas for the Iwasawa invariants of the Mazur-Tate elements attached to $f$ in terms of the…

Denote by $p(k)$ the limit, as $n \rightarrow \infty$, of the probability that a random permutation on a set of size $n$ has an invariant set of size $k$. We give an asymptotic formula for $p(k)$, showing that it is asymptotically…

Let $p$ be a sufficiently large prime number, $n$ be a positive odd integer with $n|\,p-1$ and $n>p^\varepsilon $, where $\varepsilon$ is a sufficiently small constant. Let $k(p,\,n)$ denote the least positive integer $k$ such that for…

The theta cycle of a modular form modulo a prime $p\geq 5$ is well understood. By contrast, the theta cycle modulo a power of $p$ is still mysterious and experimentally erratic. Here we completely determine the theta cycle of a weight $k <…

In this paper we study the modular structure of the permutation module $H^{(2^n)}$ of the symmetric group $S_{2n}$ acting on set partitions of a set of size $2n$ into $n$ sets each of size $2$, defined over a field of odd characteristic…

The cactus group acts on the set of standard Young tableau of a given shape by (partial) Sch\"utzenberger involutions. It is natural to extend this action to the corresponding Specht module by identifying standard Young tableau with the…

We extend our previous study of Hopf-algebraic $\kappa$-deformations of all inhomogeneous orthogonal Lie algebras ${\rm iso}(g)$ as written in a tensorial and unified form. Such deformations are determined by a vector $\tau$ which for…

We compute the complexity, z-complexity, and support varieties of the (thick) Kac modules for the Lie superalgebras of type P. We also show the complexity and the z-complexity have geometric interpretations in terms of support and…

The famous Kazhdan-Lusztig Conjecture of the 1970s states that the multiplicity of an irreducible composition factor of a Verma module can be computed by evaluating Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials at 1. Thus the character of a Verma module is a…

Let W be a complex reflection group, acting on a complex vector space H. Kato has recently introduced the notion of a "Kostka system," which is a certain collection of finite-dimensional W-equivariant modules for the symmetric algebra on H.…

Let $p$ be a prime number. We consider diagonal $p$-permutation functors over a (commutative, unital) ring $\mathsf{R}$ in which all prime numbers different from $p$ are invertible. We first determine the finite groups $G$ for which the…

We show that an elliptic modular form with integral Fourier coefficients in a number field $K$, for which all but finitely many coefficients are divisible by a prime ideal $\frak{p}$ of $K$, is a constant modulo $\frak{p}$. A similar…

We determine the decomposition numbers of the partition algebra when the characteristic of the ground field is zero or larger than the degree of the partition algebra. This will allow us to determine for which exact values of the parameter…

We give a combinatorial formula for the character of a finite-dimensional irreducible representation of the periplectic Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{p}(n)$. The character of irreducible module $L(\mu)$ is given by a cancellation-free…

We study syzygies of the Segre embedding of P(V_1) x ... x P(V_n), and prove two finiteness results. First, for fixed p but varying n and V_i, there is a finite list of "master p-syzygies" from which all other p-syzygies can be derived by…

We consider symmetric (under the action of products of finite symmetric groups) real algebraic varieties and semi-algebraic sets, as well as symmetric complex varieties in affine and projective spaces, defined by polynomials of degrees…

We prove that every finite dimensional representation of a finite group over a field of characteristic p admits a finite resolution by p-permutation modules. The proof involves a reformulation in terms of derived categories.
