Let G be a connected reductive algebraic group over an algebraic closed field. We define a (surjective) map from the set of conjugacy classes in the Weyl group to the set of unipotent classes of G.

In this paper, we prove that the endomorphism rings End A and End A' of periodic infinite Abelian groups A and A' are elementarily equivalent if and only if the endomorphism rings of their p-components are elementarily equivalent for all…

We call an element of a finite general linear group $ \textrm{GL}(d,q) $ \emph{fat} if it leaves invariant, and acts irreducibly on, a subspace of dimension greater than $d/2$. Fatness of an element can be decided efficiently in practice by…

Let $G=< x,t\mid w>$ be a one-relator group, where $w$ is a word in $x,t$. If $w$ is a product of conjugates of $x$ then, associated with $w$, there is a polynomial $A_w(X)$ over the integers, which in the case when $G$ is a knot group, is…

Let $B$ be a ring, not necessarily commutative, having an involution $*$ and let ${\mathrm U}_{2m}(B)$ be the unitary group of rank $2m$ associated to a hermitian or skew hermitian form relative to $*$. When $B$ is finite, we construct a…

We associate a generalized root system in the sense of Kyoji Saito to an orbifold projective line via the derived category of finite dimensional representations of a certain bound quiver algebra. We generalize results by Saito--Takebayshi…

Global and local Weyl Modules were introduced via generators and relations in the context of affine Lie algebras in a work by the first author and Pressley and were motivated by representations of quantum affine algebras. A more general…

Let W be a Weyl group, presented as a crystallographic reflection group on a Euclidean vector space V, and C an open Weyl chamber. In a recent paper, Waldspurger proved that the images (id-w)(C), for Weyl group elements w, are all disjoint,…

In this paper, we introduce and study a new class of rings calling them {\it weakly $\Delta U$-rings}, hereafter abbreviated as {\it $W\Delta U$-rings} for short. A ring $R$ is said to be $W\Delta U$ if every unit of $R$ can be expressed as…

We define global and local Weyl modules for $q \otimes A$, where $q$ is the queer Lie superalgebra and $A$ is an associative commutative unital $\mathbb{C}-$algebra. We prove that global Weyl modules are universal highest weight objects in…

In a previous paper I have defined a new basis for the representation ring of a Weyl group. In this paper we show that the new basis is related to the standard basis by an upper triangular unipotent matrix. We also give a new…

We introduce and study "2-roots", which are symmetrized tensor products of orthogonal roots of Kac--Moody algebras. We concentrate on the case where $W$ is the Weyl group of a simply laced Y-shaped Dynkin diagram $Y_{a,b,c}$ having $n$…

We consider properties of polynomials with coefficients in division rings. A theorem on the decomposition of a polynomial with coefficients in an arbitrary division ring is obtained. It is shown that if a non-central element is not a root…

A wide class of skew derivations on degree-one generalized Weyl algebras $R(a,\varphi)$ over a ring $R$ is constructed. All these derivations are twisted by a degree-counting extensions of automorphisms of $R$. It is determined which of the…

Let $G$ be a simple exceptional algebraic group of adjoint type over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$ and let $X = {\rm PSL}_{2}(p)$ be a subgroup of $G$ containing a regular unipotent element $x$ of $G$. By a theorem…

We introduce the universal unitarily graded A-algebra for a commutative ring A and an arbitrary abelian extension U of the group of units of A, and use this concept to give simplified proofs of the main theorems of co-Galois theory in the…

We review the Kohno-Drinfeld theorem as well as a conjectural analogue relating quantum Weyl groups to the monodromy of a flat connection D on the Cartan subalgebra of a complex, semi-simple Lie algebra g with poles on the root hyperplanes…

Given a strict partial order $\Delta$ on a set $\Lambda$ and an arbitrary ring $R$ with $1\neq 0$, the corresponding McLain group $M(\Delta)$ has been studied in depth. We construct a larger family of McLain groups $G(\Delta)$, where…

We show that various invariants of a unipotent conjugacy class in a connected semisimple group can be recovered purely in terms of data involving the Weyl group.

We study effective gravitational F-terms, obtained by integrating an $U(N)$ adjoint chiral superfield $\Phi$ coupled to the ${\cal N}=1$ gauge chiral superfield $W_\alpha$ and supergravity, to arbitrary orders in the gravitational…
