There exist combable groups in which the conjugacy problem is unsolvable. The isomorphism problem is unsolvable for certain recursive sequences of finite presentations of combable groups.

All Lie bialgebra structures on the Heisenberg--Weyl algebra $[A_+,A_-]=M$ are classified and explicitly quantized. The complete list of quantum Heisenberg--Weyl algebras so obtained includes new multiparameter deformations, most of them…

In this paper, we present a variety of problems in the interface between combinatorics and geometry around the theorems of Helly, Radon, Carath\'eodory, and Tverberg. Through these problems we describe the fascinating area of Helly-type…

We show that a class of algebras is closed under the taking of homomorphic images and direct products if and only if the class consists of all algebras that satisfy a set of (generally simultaneous) equations. For classes of regular…

Let X be the group of weights of a maximal torus of a simply connected semisimple group over C and let W be the Weyl group. The semidirect product W(Q\otimes X/X) is called the extended Weyl group. There is a natural C(v)-algebra H called…

We collect some open problems about minimal presentations of numerical semigroups and, more generally, about defining ideals and free resolutions of their semigroup rings and associated graded rings. We emphasize both long-standing problems…

In this paper we apply our results on the geometry of polygons in Cartan subspaces, symmetric spaces and buildings to four problems in algebraic group theory. Two of these problems are generalizations of the problems of finding the…

In this paper we discuss some special generalizations of equationally Noetherian property which naturally arise in the universal algebraic geometry. We introduce weakly equationally Noetherian, qw-compact, uw-compact, and weakly uw-compact…

We present about twenty conjectures, problems and questions about flat manifolds. Many of them build the bridges between the flat world and representation theory of the finite groups, hyperbolic geometry and dynamical systems.

This paper gives a Schur-Weyl duality approach to the representation theory of the affine Hecke algebras of type C with unequal parameters. The first step is to realize the affine braid group of type $C_k$ as the group of braids on $k$…

In previous work a relation between a large class of Kac-Moody algebras and meromorphic connections on global curves was established---notably the Weyl group gives isomorphisms between different moduli spaces of connections, and the root…

In this paper some open problems for Painlev\'e equations are discussed. In particular the following open problems are described: (i) the Painlev\'e equivalence problem; (ii) notation for solutions of the Painlev\'e equations; (iii)…

The relation between representations and positive definite functions is a key concept in harmonic analysis on topological groups. Recently this relation has been studied on topological groupoids. This is the first in a series of papers in…

We establish restrictions on the Hilbert function of standard graded Gorenstein algebras with only quadratic relations. Furthermore, we pose some intriguing conjectures and provide evidence for them by proving them in some cases using a…

In this paper, we explore the use of path idempotents for the Hecke algebra of type $A$ at roots of unity. For $q$ a primitive $\ell$-th root of unity we obain a non-unital imbedding of (a quotient of) the group algebra of $S_m$ into (a…

We establish doubly-exponential degree bounds for Gr\"obner bases in certain algebras of solvable type over a field (as introduced by Kandri-Rody and Weispfenning). The class of algebras considered here includes commutative polynomial…

We use the theory of varieties for modules arising from Hochschild cohomology to give an alternative version of the wildness criterion of Bergh and Solberg: If a finite dimensional self-injective algebra has a module of complexity at least…

Haile, Han and Kuo have studied certain non-commutative algebras associated to a binary quartic or ternary cubic form. We extend their construction to pairs of quadratic forms in four variables, and conjecture a further generalisation to…

In this article we classify all infinitesimal Hecke algebras of so_N. We establish isomorphism of their universal versions and the W-algebras of so_{N+2m+1} with a 1-block nilpotent element of the Jordan type (1,...,1,2m+1). This should be…

Several open questions are discussed. The topics include cohomology of current and related Lie algebras, algebras represented as the sum of subalgebras, structures and phenomena peculiar to characteristic $2$, and variations on themes of…
