We prove nilpotency results for Lie algebras over an arbitrary field admitting a derivation, which satisfies a given polynomial identity $r(t)=0$. For the polynomial $r=t^n-1$ we obtain results on the nilpotency of Lie algebras admitting a…
A set of coupled non-linear integral equations is derived for a class of models connected with the quantum group $U_q(\hat g)$ ($g$ simply laced Lie algebra), which are solvable using the Bethe Ansatz; these equations describe arbitrary…
We show that Hilbert's Nullstellensatz, the problem of deciding if a system of multivariate polynomial equations has a solution in the algebraic closure of the underlying field, lies in the counting hierarchy. More generally, we show that…
Let $K$ be a number field, let $X$ be a smooth integral variety over $K$, and assume that there exists a finite set of finite places $S$ of $K$ such that the $S$-integral points on $X$ are dense. Then the combined conjectures of Campana and…
Let $G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p \ge 0$. We give a case-free proof of Lusztig's conjectures [Unipotent elements in small characteristic, {\em Transform. Groups} 10…
This paper begins with an exposition of the author's research on the category of BP_*BP-comodules, much of which is joint with Neil Strickland. The main result of that work is that the category of E(n)_*E(n)-comodules is equivalent to a…
For every associative algebra $A$ and every class $\mathcal{C}$ of representations of $A$ the following question (related to nullstellensatz) makes sense: Characterize all tuples of elements $a_1,\ldots,a_n \in A$ such that vectors…
In this short note, we prove a general nilpotence theorem for a rational rigid 2-ring all of whose objects satisfy a certain ``moderate growth condition'' inspired from the theory of tensor categories. This applies in particular to the…
Systems of polynomial equations over an algebraically-closed field K can be used to concisely model many combinatorial problems. In this way, a combinatorial problem is feasible (e.g., a graph is 3-colorable, hamiltonian, etc.) if and only…
We introduce a new class of exponentials of Artin-Hasse type, called $\boldsymbol{\pi}$-exponentials. These exponentials depends on the choice of a generator $\boldsymbol{\pi}$ of the Tate module of a Lubin-Tate group $\mathfrak{G}$ over…
We show that if $E$ is an arbitrary acyclic graph then the Leavitt path algebra $L_K(E)$ is locally $K$-matricial; that is, $L_K(E)$ is the direct union of subalgebras, each isomorphic to a finite direct sum of finite matrix rings over the…
We investigate conditions under which the endomorphism ring of the Leavitt path algebra $L_{K}(E)$ possesses various ring and module-theoretical properties such as being von Neumann regular, $\pi$-regular, strongly $\pi$-regular or…
We consider rational integrable supersymmetric gl(m|n) spin chains in the defining representation and prove the isomorphism between a commutative algebra of conserved charges (the Bethe algebra) and a polynomial ring (the Wronskian algebra)…
The following theorem is proved: Let M be a locally Lipschitz hypersurface in C^n with one-sided extension property at each point (e.g., without analytic discs). Let S be a closed subset of M and f : M \ S ---> C^m \ E is a CR-mapping of…
We set up a Batalin-Vilkovisky Quantum Master Equation for open-closed string theory and show that the corresponding moduli spaces give rise to a solution, a generating function for their fundamental chains. The equation encodes the…
Schlichting conjectured that the negative K-groups of small abelian categories vanish and proved this for noetherian abelian categories and for all abelian categories in degree $-1$. The main results of this paper are that $K_{-1}(E)$…
The condition of nilpotency is studied in the general linear Lie algebra $\mathfrak{gl}_{n}(\mathbb{K})$ and the symplectic Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sp}_{2m}(\mathbb{K})$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. In particular,…
In this work, we prove three types of results with the strategy that, together, the author believes these should imply the local version of Hilbert's Fifth problem. In a separate development, we construct a nontrivial topology for rings of…
The family of Thom spectra $y(n)$ interpolates between the sphere spectrum and the mod two Eilenberg--MacLane spectrum. Computations of Mahowald, Ravenel, Shick, and the authors show that the associative ring spectrum $y(n)$ has type $n$.…
We compare two generalizations of Tate homology: stable homology and the J-completion of Tor, also known as complete homology. For finitely generated modules, we show that the two theories agree over Artin algebras and over commutative…
