Let $k$ be an arbitrary field, $\Lambda$ be a $k$-algebra and $V$ be a $\Lambda$-module. When it exists, the universal deformation ring $R(\Lambda,V)$ of $V$ is a $k$-algebra whose local homomorphisms to $R$ parametrize the lifts of $V$ up…

If A is an algebra of functions on X, there are many cases when X can be regarded as included in Hom(A,C) as the set of ring homomorphisms. In this paper the corresponding results for the symmetric products of X are introduced. It is shown…

The dual stable Grothendieck polynomials $g_\lambda$ and their sums $\sum_{\mu\subset\lambda} g_\mu$ (which represent $K$-homology classes of boundary ideal sheaves and structure sheaves of Schubert varieties in the Grassmannians) have the…

This note extends some results of a previous paper (math.RT/0403250) about finite dimensional representations of the wreath product symplectic reflection algebra H(k,c,N,G) of rank N attached to a finite subgroup G of SL(2,C) (here k is a…

In this paper, we show that wreath products of groups have linear divergence, and we generalise the argument to permutational wreath products. We also prove that Houghton groups $\mathcal{H}_m$ with $m\geq 2$ and Baumslag-Solitar groups…

Let $G$ be a finite group, $X$ be a compact $G$-space. In this note we study the $(\mathbb{Z}_ + \times\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z})$-graded algebra $$\mathcal{F}^q_G(X) = \bigoplus_{n\geq0} q^n \cdot…

In analogy to the disjoint cycle decomposition in permutation groups, Ore and Specht define a decomposition of elements of the full monomial group and exploit this to describe conjugacy classes and centralisers of elements in the full…

Using the notion of isoclinism introduced by P. Hall for finite p-groups, we show that many important classes of finite p-groups have stable cohomology detected by abelian subgroups, see Theorem 4.4. Moreover, we show that the stable…

We address the general classification problem of all stable associative product structures in the complex cobordism theory. We show how to reduce this problem to the algebraic one in terms of the Hopf algebra $S$ (the Landweber-Novikov…

Let g be a finite-dimensional complex Lie algebra, and let U(g) be its universal enveloping algebra. We prove that if \hat{U}(g), the Arens-Michael envelope of U(g), is stably flat over U(g) (i.e., if the canonical homomorphism…

Let $\mathscr{R}$ be a type $II_1$ von Neumann algebra. We show that every unitary in $\mathscr{R}$ may be decomposed as the product of six symmetries (that is, self-adjoint unitaries) in $\mathscr{R}$, and every unitary in $\mathscr{R}$…

We consider II$_1$ factors of the form $M=\bar{\bigotimes}_{G}N\rtimes G$, where either i) $N$ is a non-hyperfinite II$_1$ factor and $G$ is an ICC amenable group or ii) $N$ is a weakly rigid II$_1$ factor and $G$ is ICC group and where $G$…

Let $\Lambda$ be a basic finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field $\mathbf{k}$, and let $\widehat{\Lambda}$ be the repetitive algebra of $\Lambda$. In this article, we prove that if $\widehat{V}$ is a left…

In this paper we study the classifying spaces of graph products of simplicial groups and connected Hopf algebras over a field, and show that they can be uniformly treated under the framework of polyhedral products. It turns out that these…

For a connected real Lie group $G$ we consider the canonical standard-ordered star product arising from the canonical global symbol calculus based on the half-commutator connection of $G$. This star product trivially converges on polynomial…

We construct generalized regular representations of the wreath product of a compact group with the infinite symmetric group. The characters of these representations are determined by probability measures on families of partitions called the…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finite group. Consider the wreath product $G_n := \Gamma^n \rtimes S_n$ and the subgroup $K_n := \Delta_n \times S_n\subseteq G_n$, where $S_n$ is the symmetric group and $\Delta_n$ is the diagonal subgroup of $\Gamma^n$.…

We discuss a general construction of a deformation of a smash product algebra coming from an action of a particular Hopf algebra. This Hopf algebra is generated by skew-primitive and group-like elements, and depends on a complex parameter.…

Connectivity is a homotopy invariant property of a separable C*-algebra A which has three important consequences: absence of nontrivial projections, quasidiagonality and realization of the Kasparov group KK(A,B) as homotopy classes of…

Let $r$ be a positive integer and let $G_n$ be the reflection group of $n \times n$ monomial matrices whose entries are $r^{th}$ complex roots of unity and let $k \leq n$. We define and study two new graded quotients $R_{n,k}$ and $S_{n,k}$…
