We consider a finite dimensional $\kk G$-module $V$ of a $p$-group $G$ over a field $\kk$ of characteristic $p$. We describe a generating set for the corresponding Hilbert Ideal. In case $G$ is cyclic this yields that the algebra $\kk[V]_G$…
In this paper, we develop 2-dimensional algebraic theory which closely follows the classical theory of modules. The main results are giving definitions of 2-module and the representation of 2-ring. Moreover, for a 2-ring $\cR$, we prove…
We present a full list of all representations of the special linear group $\mathrm{SL}_n$ over the complex numbers with complete intersection invariant ring, completing the classification of Shmelkin. For this task, we combine three…
A notion of one-dimensional formal ring is presented. It consists of a triple $(A,\Phi,\Psi)$ where $A$ is a unital ring and $\Phi$ and $\Psi$ are two formal power series in $2$ variables ${\Phi(x,y),\Psi(x,y)\in A\llbracket…
This paper aims at the following results: \begin{enumerate} \item The class of all $*$-regular rings forms a variety. \item A subdirectly irreducible $*$-regular ring $R$ is faithfully representable (i.e. isomorphic to a subring of an…
We bound the j -invariant of integral points on a modular curve in terms of the congruence group defining the curve. We apply this to prove that the modular curve Xsplit (p3) has no non-trivial rational point if p is a sufficiently large…
We determine the three fundamental invariants in the entries of a $3 \times 3 \times 3$ array over $\mathbb{C}$ as explicit polynomials in the 27 variables $x_{ijk}$ for $1 \le i, j, k \le 3$. By the work of Vinberg on $\theta$-groups, it…
We study fusion rings for degenerate minimal models ($p=q$ case) for N=0 and N=1 (super)conformal algebras. We consider a distinguished family of modules at the level $c=1$ and $c=3/2$ and show that the corresponding fusion rings are…
We continue the analysis of the Modular Isomorphism Problem for $2$-generated $p$-groups with cyclic derived subgroup, $p>2$, started in [D. Garc\'ia-Lucas, \'A. del R\'io, and M. Stanojkovski. On group invariants determined by modular…
We show the 3 by 3 magic square of squares problem equivalent to solving quartic polynomials with certain factorization constraints over an abelian extension of the rationals. We analyze a particular case in which said extension is assumed…
From a unifying lemma concerning fusion rings, we prove a collection of number-theoretic results about fusion, braided, and modular tensor categories. First, we prove that every fusion ring has a dimensional grading by an elementary abelian…
We consider the problem of classifying (possibly noncommutative) R-algebras of low rank over an arbitrary base ring R. We first classify algebras by their degree, and we relate the class of algebras of degree 2 to algebras with a standard…
In this paper, we prove that for any odd prime larger than 3, the modular group representation associated to the SO$(p)_2$-TQFT can be defined over the ring of integers of a cyclotomic field. We will provide explicit integral bases. In the…
We determine the integral cohomology rings of an infinite family of p-groups, for odd primes p, with cyclic derived subgroups. Our method involves embedding the groups in a compact Lie group of dimension one, and was suggested by P H…
We show there exist no nontrivial semidualizing modules for nonmodular rings of invariants of order $p^n$ with $p$ a prime.
The main purpose of this paper is to develop new algorithms for computing invariant rings in a general setting. This includes invariants of nonreductive groups but also of groups acting on algebras over certain rings. In particular, we…
An invariant of orientable 3-manifolds is defined by taking the minimum $n$ such that a given 3-manifold embeds in the connected sum of $n$ copies of $S^2 \times S^2$, and we call this $n$ the embedding number of the 3-manifold. We give…
Let $k$ be a field of characteristic $p>0$, and let $W$ be a complete discrete valuation ring of characteristic $0$ that has $k$ as its residue field. Suppose $G$ is a finite group and $G^{\mathrm{ab},p}$ is its maximal abelian $p$-quotient…
Consider the diagonal action of the special orthogonal group on the direct sum of a finite number of copies of the standard representation--the underlying field is assumed to be algebraically closed and of characteristic not equal to two.…
We classify globally irreducible representations of alternating groups and double covers of symmetric and alternating groups. In order to achieve this classification we also completely characterise irreducible representations of such groups…
