Let $S=K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ be the polynomial ring over the field $K$, and let $I\subset S$ be a graded ideal. It is shown that for $k \gg0$ the postulation number of $I^k$ is bounded by a linear function of $k$, and it is a linear function…

Given a representation of a finite group $G$ over some commutative base ring $\mathbf{k}$, the cofixed space is the largest quotient of the representation on which the group acts trivially. If $G$ acts by $\mathbf{k}$-algebra automorphisms,…

Let $G$ be a finite $p$-group and $k$ a field of characteristic $p>0$. We show that $G$ has a \emph{non-linear} faithful action on a polynomial ring $U$ of dimension $n=\mathrm{log}_p(|G|)$ such that the invariant ring $U^G$ is also…

We study GL-equivariant modules over the infinite variable polynomial ring $S = k[x_1, x_2, ..., x_n, ...]$ with $k$ an infinite field of characteristic $p > 0$. We extend many of Sam--Snowden's far-reaching results from characteristic zero…

Let $V$ be a valuation ring of a global field $K$. We show that for all positive integers $k$ and $1 < n_1 \leq \ldots \leq n_k$ there exists an integer-valued polynomial on $V$, that is, an element of $\text{Int}(V) = \{ f \in K[X] \mid…

The symmetric group S_n acts on the skew polynomial ring A=k_{-1}[x_1,..., x_n] as permutations. For subgroups G of S_n we consider properties of the ring of invariants A^G. We show that A^G is always Artin-Schelter Gorenstein, and we…

Let $K$ be a global field and let $Z$ be a geometrically irreducible algebraic variety defined over $K$. We show that if a big set $S\subseteq Z$ of rational points of bounded height occupies few residue classes modulo $\mathfrak{p}$ for…

We introduce and study equivariant Hilbert series of ideals in polynomial rings in countably many variables that are invariant under a suitable action of a symmetric group or the monoid $Inc(\mathbb{N})$ of strictly increasing functions.…

We initiate a study of the rings of invariants of modular representations of elementary abelian p-groups. With a few notable exceptions, the modular representation theory of an elementary abelian p-group is wild. However, for a given…

Let $P$ be a principal indecomposable module of a finite group $G$ in characteristic $2$ and let $\varphi$ be the Brauer character of the corresponding simple $G$-module. We show that $P$ affords a non-degenerate $G$-invariant quadratic…

Let V(KG) be a normalised unit group of the modular group algebra of a finite p-group G over the field K of p elements. We introduce a notion of symmetric subgroups in V(KG) as subgroups invariant under the action of the classical…

In [GTZ08, GTZ12], the following result was established: given polynomials $f,g\in\mathbb{C}[x]$ of degrees larger than $1$, if there exist $\alpha,\beta\in\mathbb{C}$ such that their corresponding orbits $\mathcal{O}_f(\alpha)$ and…

The ring of projective invariants of eight ordered points on the line is a quotient of the polynomial ring on V, where V is a fourteen-dimensional representation of S_8, by an ideal I_8, so the modular fivefold (P^1)^8 // GL(2) is Proj(Sym*…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a finite-dimensional simple Lie algebra of rank $\ell$ over an algebraically closed field $\Bbbk$ of characteristic zero, and let $(e,h,f)$ be an $\mathfrak{sl}_2$-triple of g. Denote by $\mathfrak{g}^{e}$ the…

Hilbert's 14th Problem asks the following question. Given a linear representation $ \beta: G \to \operatorname{GL}(\mathbf{V}) $ of a linear algebraic group over a field $ k $ is the ring $ S_{k}(\mathbf{V}^{\ast}) $ a finitely generated $…

We consider the symmetric group $S_n$-module of the polynomial ring with $m$ sets of $n$ commuting variables and $m'$ sets of $n$ anti-commuting variables and show that the multiplicity of an irreducible indexed by the partition $\lambda$…

Let $\mathbb{K}$ be a field, $\mathcal{X}$ be an infinite set (of indeterminates), and $\mathcal{G}$ be a group acting on $\mathcal{X}$. An ideal in the polynomial ring $\mathbb{K}[\mathcal{X}]$ is called equivariant if it is invariant…

Let $R$ be either the ring of Lipschitz quaternions, or the ring of Hurwitz quaternions. Then, $R$ is a subring of the division ring $\mathbb{D}$ of rational quaternions. For $S \subseteq R$, we study the collection $\rm{Int}(S,R) = \{f \in…

Let $p$ be a prime number, $\Bbbk$ a field of characteristic $p$ and $G$ a finite $p$-group acting on a standard graded polynomial ring $S = \Bbbk[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ as degree-preserving $\Bbbk$-algebra automorphisms. Assume that $G$ is…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring and $M$ be an $R$-module, and let $I(R)^*$ be the set of all non-trivial ideals of $R$. The $M$-intersection graph of ideals of $R$, denoted by $G_M(R)$, is a graph with the vertex set $I(R)^*$, and two…
