We present some variations on some of the main open problems on character degrees. We collect some of the methods that have proven to be very useful to work on these problems. These methods are also useful to solve certain problems on zeros…

The survey contains a brief description of the ideas, constructions, results, and prospects of the theory of hypergroups and generalized translation operators. Representations of hypergroups are considered, being treated as continuous…

In this paper, we characterize conformal vector fields of any (regular or singular) $(\alpha,\beta)$-space with some PDEs. Further, we show some properties of conformal vector fields of a class of singular $(\alpha,\beta)$-spaces satisfying…

This paper contributes to the theory of orders of number fields. This paper defines a notion of "ray class group" associated to an arbitrary order in a number field together with an arbitrary ray class modulus for that order (including…

Conformal fields are a recently discovered class of representations of the algebra of vector fields in $N$ dimensions. Invariant first-order differential operators (exterior derivatives) for conformal fields are constructed.

Motivated by some recent developments in abstract theories of quadratic forms, we start to develop in this work an expansion of Linear Algebra to multivalued structures (a multialgebraic structure is essentially an algebraic structure but…

We develop a theory of extensions of hyperfields that generalizes the notion of field extensions. Since hyperfields have a multivalued addition, we must consider two kinds of extensions that we call weak hyperfield extensions and strong…

In this paper, the author introduces the concept and basic properties of finite (commutative) hyperfields. Also, the author shows that, up to isomorphism, there are exactly 2 hyperfields of order 2; 5 hyperfields of order 3; 7 hyperfields…

We study a 1-form which can be given by a vector in a conformally invariant way. We then study conformally invariant functionals associated to a ``Y-diagram'' on the space of knots which are made from the 1-form.

Singularities of the Poynting vector field at resonant light scattering by nanoparticles are discussed and classified. It is shown that there are two generic types of them, namely (i) the singularities related to the vanishing of the…

We use cyclotomy to design new classes of permutation polynomials over finite fields. This allows us to generate many classes of permutation polynomials in an algorithmic way. Many of them are permutation polynomials of large indices.

We give a survey of recent results related to the problem of characterizing finite-dimensional division algebras by the set of isomorphism classes of their maximal subfields. We also discuss various generalizations of this problem and some…

Recently, a geometrical characterization of vector spaces served to generalize them into a new class of algebras. Instead of the algebraic properties of the underlying fields, we generalized the recently discovered property of such spaces…

For any discrete group $\Gamma$ and any 2-dimensional complex representation $\rho$ of $\Gamma$, we introduce the notion of $\rho-$equivariant functions, and we show that they are parameterized by vector-valued modular forms. We also…

We consider generalized gradients in the general context of $G$-structures. They are natural first order differential operators acting on sections of vector bundles associated to irreducible $G$-representations. We study their geometric…

We describe the additive subgroups of fields which are closed with respect to taking inverses. In particular, in characteristic different from two any such subgroup is either a subfield or the kernel of the trace map of a quadratic…

We survey variety theory for modules of finite dimensional Hopf algebras, recalling some definitions and basic properties of support and rank varieties where they are known. We focus specifically on properties known for classes of examples…

We prove convergence results for `increasing' sequences of sectorial forms. We treat both the case of closed forms and the case of non-closable forms.

The quantization of vector bundles is defined. Examples are constructed for the well controlled case of equivariant vector bundles over compact coadjoint orbits. (Coadjoint orbits are symplectic spaces with a transitive, semisimple symmetry…

In this review paper we give a geometrical formulation of the field equations in the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formalisms of classical field theories (of first order) in terms of multivector fields. This formulation enables us to discuss…
