We determine when a permutation with cycle type $\mu$ admits a non-zero invariant vector in the irreducible representation $V_\lambda$ of the symmetric group. We find that a majority of pairs $(\lambda,\mu)$ have this property, with only a…

Given a connected graph $G$, the equidistant dimension of $G$ represents the cardinality of the smallest set of vertices $S$ of $G$ such that for any two vertices $x,y\notin S$ there is at least one vertex in $S$ equidistant to both $x,y$…
A graph $\Gamma$ is $G$-symmetric if it admits $G$ as a group of automorphisms acting transitively on the set of arcs of $\Gamma$, where an arc is an ordered pair of adjacent vertices. Let $\Gamma$ be a $G$-symmetric graph such that its…

For a vertex $v$ of a connected graph $G(V,E)$ and a subset $S$ of $V$, the distance between $v$ and $S$ is defined by $d(v,S)=min\{d(v,x):x \in S \}.$ For an ordered \emph{k}-partition $\Pi=\{S_1,S_2\ldots S_k\}$ of $V$, the representation…
If \chi^\lambda is the irreducible character of the symmetric group S_n corresponding to the partition \lambda of n then we may symmetrize a tensor v_1 \otimes ... \otimes v_n by \chi^\lambda. Gamas's theorem states that the result is not…
For a connected quasi-split reductive algebraic group $G$ over a field $k$, which is either a finite field or a non-archimedean local field, $\theta$ an involutive automorphism of $G$ over $k$, let $K =G^\theta$. Let $K^1=[K^0,K^0]$, the…

We introduce the symplectic group $\mathrm{Sp}_2(G, \sigma)$ associated to a Lie subgroup $G$ of a (possibly noncommutative) associative algebra $A$ equipped with an anti-involution $\sigma$. Our construction recovers several classical Lie…

Suppose $D$ is a finite dimensional C*-algebra carrying a continuous action $\overline{\Pi}$ of the circle group $\mathbb{T}$. We study the quantum symmetry group of $D$, taking $\overline{\Pi}$ into account. We show that they are braided…
The C_{\lambda}-extended oscillator algebra is generated by {1,a,a^{\dagger},N,T}, where T is the generator of the cyclic group C_{\lambda} of order \lambda. It can be realized as a generalized deformed oscillator algebra (GDOA). Its…
In gravity, breaking symmetry from a group G to a group H plays the role of describing geometry in relation to the geometry the homogeneous space G/H. The deep reason for this is Cartan's "method of equivalence," giving, in particular, an…
Let $V$ be a finite dimensional vector space. Given a decomposition $V\otimes V=\oplus_i^n I_i$, define $n$ quadratic algebras $(V, J_m)$ where $J_m=\oplus_{i\neq m} I_i$. This decomposition defines also the quantum semigroup…
