We show that a class of algebras is closed under the taking of homomorphic images and direct products if and only if the class consists of all algebras that satisfy a set of (generally simultaneous) equations. For classes of regular…

Each irreducible representation of the motion group of the plane has a unique maximal inductive algebra, and it is self adjoint.

We show that, for a sheet or a Lusztig stratum S containing spherical conjugacy classes in a connected reductive algebraic group G over an algebraically closed field in good characteristic, the orbit space S/G is isomorphic to the quotient…

Let $G$ be a semisimple algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 and $P$ be a parabolic subgroup of $G$. Let $M$ be a $P$-module and $V$ be a $P$-stable closed subvariety of $M$. We show in this paper…

We obtain a class of examples of non-rational adjoint classical groups of type $^2A_n$ and a group of type $^2D_3$ over the function field $F$ of a smooth geometrically integral curve over a $p$-adic field with $p \neq 2$. We also show that…

Let $A$ be a rational function. For any decomposition of $A$ into a composition of rational functions $A=U\circ V$ the rational function $\widetilde A=V\circ U$ is called an elementary transformation of $A$, and rational functions $A$ and…

With every nontrivial connected algebraic group $G$ we associate a positive integer ${\rm gtd}(G)$ called the generic transitivity degree of $G$ and equal to the maximal $n$ such that there is a nontrivial action of $G$ on an irreducible…

Beilinson conjectured that all rational cycles of type (q,q) on the qth cohomology of a smooth complex algebraic variety should come from motivic cohomology. The purpose of this note is to prove this when the variety is a semiabelian…

In this note we classify simply connected rationally elliptic compact toric orbifolds up to algebraic isomorphism.

In this article, we study rational matrix representations of VZ $p$-groups ($p$ is any prime). Utilizing our findings on VZ $p$-groups, we explicitly obtain all inequivalent irreducible rational matrix representations of all $p$-groups of…

We prove that if V is a unitary simple holomorphic vertex operator algebra of CFT type, then V is rational, that is, all N-gradable V-modules are direct sums of copies of V.

Given a natural number m and a Lie algebra g, the m th generalized Takiff Lie algebra of g is the Lie algebra gm\,:= g $\otimes$ C[T ]/T m+1 . For n $\ge$ m, we define the (m, n)-modality of an adjoint orbit $\Omega$m in gm to be the…

We study rationality problem for the quotient of $\mathbb{C}^4$ by a finite primitive group $G$ of Type (I). We prove that this quotient is a rational variety for any such $G$.

Let $G$ be a finite group, and let $V$ be a completely reducible faithful $G$-module. It has been known for a long time that if $G$ is abelian, then $G$ has a regular orbit on $V$. In this paper we show that $G$ has an orbit of size at…

Motivated by problems arising in the relative trace formula and arithmetic invariant theory we prove the existence of rational points on orbits arising from certain infinitesimal symmetric spaces. As an application, we prove analogous…

In this paper we consider various problems involving the action of a reductive group $G$ on an affine variety $V$. We prove some general rationality results about the $G$-orbits in $V$. In addition, we extend fundamental results of Kempf…

This expository article is an introduction to the adjoint orbits of complex semisimple groups, primarily in the algebro-geometric and Lie-theoretic contexts, and with a pronounced emphasis on the properties of semisimple and nilpotent…
