Let G be the simple, simply connected algebraic group SL_3 defined over an algebraically closed field K of characteristic p>0. In this paper, we find H^2(G,V) for any irreducible G-module V. When p>7 we also find H^2(G(q),V) for any…

We establish an irreducibility property for the characters of finite dimensional, irreducible representations of simple Lie algebras (or simple algebraic groups) over the complex numbers, i.e., that the characters of irreducible…

An action of the Yangian of the general Lie algebra gl(N) is defined on every irreducible integrable highest weight module of affine gl(N) with level greater than 1. This action is derived, by means of the Drinfeld duality and a subsequent…

We address the problem of duality between the coloured extension of the quantised algebra of functions on a group and that of its quantised universal enveloping algebra i.e. its dual. In particular, we derive explicitly the algebra dual to…

Let $q$ be a prime power and let $\mathcal{R}=\mathbb{F}_{q}[u_1,u_2, \cdots, u_k]/\langle f_i(u_i),u_iu_j-u_ju_i\rangle$ be a finite non-chain ring, where $f_i(u_i), 1\leq i \leq k$ are polynomials, not all linear, which split into…

Making use of a Howe duality involving the infinite-dimensional Lie superalgebra $\hgltwo$ and the finite-dimensional group $GL_l$ we derive a character formula for a certain class of irreducible quasi-finite representations of $\hgltwo$ in…

We consider the set of monic irreducible polynomials $P$ over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ such that the multiplicative order modulo $P$ of some a in $\mathbb{F}_q(T)$ is divisible by a fixed positive integer $d$. Call $R_q(a,d)$ this set.…

This article begins with an exploration of nonlinear codes ($\mathbb{F}_q$-linear subspaces of $\mathbb{F}_{q^m}^n$) which are generalizations of the familiar Reed-Solomon codes. This then leads to a wider exploration of nonlinear analogues…

The two Rogers-Ramanujan $q$-series \[ \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{q^{n(n+\sigma)}}{(1-q)\cdots (1-q^n)}, \] where $\sigma=0,1$, play many roles in mathematics and physics. By the Rogers-Ramanujan identities, they are essentially modular…

We first introduce a new presentation for the mirabolic Hecke algebra $\mathscr{H}_{n,R}(q)$ over an arbitrary commutative ring $R$ and derive a new basis. Based on this presentation, specializing to the case of $\mathscr{H}_n(q)$ over the…

We consider the problem of testing if a given function f : F_2^n -> F_2 is close to any degree d polynomial in n variables, also known as the Reed-Muller testing problem. The Gowers norm is based on a natural 2^{d+1}-query test for this…

We give a $q$-analogue of Howe duality associated to a pair $(\mf{g},G)$, where $\mf{g}$ is an orthosymplectic Lie superalgebra and $G=O_\ell, Sp_{2\ell}$. We define explicitly {commuting actions} of a quantized enveloping algebra of…

In this paper, we show that the projective Reed-Muller~(PRM) codes form a family of locally correctable codes~(LCC) in the regime of low query complexities. A PRM code is specified by the alphabet size $q$, the number of variables $m$, and…

In this article, we investigate the representations of the Drinfeld doubles $D(R_{mn}(q))$ of the Radford Hopf algebras $R_{mn}(q)$ over an algebraically closed field $\Bbbk$, where $m>1$ and $n>1$ are integers and $q\in\Bbbk$ is a root of…

For projective Reed--Muller-type codes we give a global duality criterion in terms of the v-number and the Hilbert function of a vanishing ideal. As an application, we provide a global duality theorem for projective Reed--Muller-type codes…

We consider the quantum algebra $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ with $q$ not a root of unity. We describe the finite-dimensional irreducible $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$-modules from the point of view of the equitable presentation.

Given a positive integer $r$ and a prime power $q$, we estimate the probability that the characteristic polynomial $f_{A}(t)$ of a random matrix $A$ in $\mathrm{GL}_{n}(\mathbb{F}_{q})$ is square-free with $r$ (monic) irreducible factors…

We consider $q$-ary (linear and nonlinear) block codes with exactly two distances: $d$ and $d+\delta$. Several combinatorial constructions of optimal such codes are given. In the linear (but not necessary projective) case, we prove that…

In this paper, we study the dihedral codes, i.e. the left ideals of $\mathbb{F}_qD_{n}$ in the case $\gcd(q, n) = 1$. An explicit algebraic description of the dihedral codes and their duals is obtained. In addition, a criterion for…

In the present paper, we prove that any finite non-trivial irreducible module over a rank two Lie conformal algebra $\mathcal{H}$ is of rank one. We also describe the actions of $\mathcal{H}$ on its finite irreducible modules explicitly.…
