In this paper we expand on previous results, studying the extent to which one can detect fusion in certain finite groups $\Gamma$, from information about the universal deformation rings of absolutely irreducible…

We compute the graded polynomial identities of the infinite dimensional upper triangular matrix algebra over an arbitrary field. If the grading group is finite, we prove that the set of graded polynomial identities admits a finite basis. We…

For every finite abelian group $G$, there are positive integers $n$ and $d$ such that $G$ is isomorphic to the multiplicative group of $d$-th powers of reduced residues modulo $n$.

In this paper, we show that VC-minimal ordered fields are real closed. We introduce a notion, strictly between convexly orderable and dp-minimal, that we call dp-small, and show that this is enough to characterize many algebraic theories.…

Let $q$ be a power of a prime $p$, $G$ be a finite abelian group, where $p$ does not divide $|G|$,and let $n$ be a positive integer. In this paper we find a formula for the number of irreducible representations of $G$ of a given dimension…

We prove that if a finite group scheme $G$ over a field $k$ has essential dimension one, then it embeds in $PGL_{2/k}$. We use this to give an explicit classification of all infinitesimal group schemes of essential dimension one over any…

We study definable ranks of ordered fields, ordered abelian groups, and linear orders. For an arbitrary linear order $\Gamma$, we construct an ordered abelian group $G$ with archimedian spine $\Gamma$ and an ordered field $K$ with natural…

Let $K$ be a number field, let $L$ be an algebraic (possibly infinite degree) extension of $K$, and let $O_K$ $\subset$ $O_L$ be their rings of integers. Suppose $A$ is an abelian variety defined over $K$ such that $A(K)$ is infinite and…

In this note we give a self-contained proof of the following classification (up to conjugation) of subgroups of the general symplectic group of dimension n over a finite field of characteristic l, for l at least 5, which can be derived from…

This paper characterizes the quasilocal fields from the class of Henselian valued fields with totally indivisible value groups, which possess finite separable extensions of nontrivial defect. We show that, for any prime number $q$, a…

We prove that for p-optimal fields (a very large subclass of p-minimal fields containing all the known examples) a cell decomposition theorem follows from methods going back to Denef's paper [Invent. Math, 77 (1984)]. We derive from it the…

Groups of almost upper triangular infinite matrices with entries indexed by integers are studied. It is shown that, when the matrices are over a finite field, these groups admit a nondiscrete totally disconnected, locally compact group…

We classify all possible extensions of a valuation from a ground field $K$ to a rational function field in one or several variables over $K$. We determine which value groups and residue fields can appear, and we show how to construct…

We continue our earlier investigation of dp-finite fields. We show that the "heavy sets" of [6] are exactly the sets of full dp-rank. As a consequence, full dp-rank is a definable property in definable families of sets. If $I$ is the group…

Let $\hat G$ be the finite simply connected version of an exceptional Chevalley group, and let $V$ be a nontrivial irreducible module, of minimal dimension, for $\hat G$ over its field of definition. We explore the overgroup structure of…

A group is small if it has countably many complete $n$-types over the empty set for each natural number n. More generally, a group $G$ is weakly small if it has countably many complete 1-types over every finite subset of G. We show here…

We prove that the generic type of a non-cyclic torsion-free hyperbolic group G is foreign to any interpretable abelian group, hence also to any interpretable field. This result depends, among other things, on the definable simplicity of a…

Let k be a field. A finite dimensional k-algebra is said to be minimal representation-infinite provided it is representation-infinite and all its proper factor algebras are representation-finite. Our aim is to classify the special biserial…

In this paper, we characterize NIP henselian valued fields modulo the theory of their residue field, both in an algebraic and in a model-theoretic way. Assuming the conjecture that every infinite NIP field is either separably closed, real…

Local fields, and fields complete with respect to a discrete valuation, are essential objects in commutative algebra, with applications to number theory and algebraic geometry. We formalize in Lean the basic theory of discretely valued…
