When we consider the action of a finite group on a polynomial ring, a polynomial unchanged by the action is called an invariant polynomial. A famous result of Noether states that in characteristic zero the maximal degree of a minimal…

Faithful representations of regular $\ast$-rings and modular complemented lattices with involution within orthosymmetric sesquilinear spaces are studied within the framework of Universal Algebra. In particular, the correspondence between…

Working over an algebraically closed base field $k$ of characteristic 2, the ring of invariants $R^G$ is studied, where $G$ is the orthogonal group O(n) or the special orthogonal group SO(n), acting naturally on the coordinate ring $R$ of…

A novel method to obtain parametrizations of complex inverse orthogonal matrices is provided. These matrices are natural generalizations of complex Hadamard matrices which depend on non zero complex parameters. The method we use is via…

Manifold submetries of the round sphere are a class of partitions of the round sphere that generalizes both singular Riemannian foliations, and the orbit decompositions by the orthogonal representations of compact groups. We exhibit a…

Let $n>1$ be an odd integer. We prove that there are infinitely many imaginary quadratic fields of the form $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{x^2-2y^n})$ whose ideal class group has an element of order $n$. This family gives a counter example to a…

Second-order superintegrable systems in dimensions two and three are essentially classified. With increasing dimension, however, the non-linear partial differential equations employed in current methods become unmanageable. Here we propose…

We prove the following result: Theorem. Every algebraic distributive lattice D with at most $\aleph\_1$ compact elements is isomorphic to the ideal lattice of a von Neumann regular ring R. (By earlier results of the author, the $\aleph\_1$…

We extend the notion of standard pairs to the context of monomial ideals in semigroup rings. Standard pairs can be used as a data structure to encode such monomial ideals, providing an alternative to generating sets that is well suited to…

In this survey we consider polynomial optimization problems, asking to minimize a polynomial function over a compact semialgebraic set, defined by polynomial inequalities. This models a great variety of (in general, nonlinear nonconvex)…

If $R$ is the ring of integers of a number field, then there exists a polynomial parametrization of the set $\text{SL}_2(R)$, i.e., an element $A \in \text{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z}[x_1,\ldots,x_n])$ such that every element of $\text{SL}_2(R)$ is…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a semisimple complex Lie algebra of finite dimension and $\mathfrak{h}$ be a semisimple subalgebra. We present an approach to find the branching rules for the pair $\mathfrak{g}\supset\mathfrak{h}$. According to an…

We generalise Gabidulin codes to the case of infinite fields, eventually with characteristic zero. For this purpose, we consider an abstract field extension and any automorphism in the Galois group. We derive some conditions on the…

Let $n$ be an integer greater than or equal to $3$ and $(R,\Delta)$ a Hermitian form ring where $R$ is commutative. We prove that if $H$ is a subgroup of the odd-dimensional unitary group $U_{2n+1}(R,\Delta)$ normalised by a relative…

This is an introduction to rings and fields, written for a quarter-long undergraduate course. It includes the basic properties of ideals, modules, algebras and polynomials, the constructions of ring extensions and finite fields, some…

Graded rings provide a natural algebraic framework for encoding symmetry via decompositions into homogeneous components indexed by a group, together with multiplication rules reflecting the group operation. Among graded rings, strongly…
