We construct irreducible unitary representations of a finitely generated free group which are weakly contained in the left regular representation and in which a given linear combination of the generators has an eigenvalue. When the…

We give an algorithm to determine finitely many generators for a subgroup of finite index in the unit group of an integral group ring $\mathbb{Z} G$ of a finite nilpotent group $G$, this provided the rational group algebra $\mathbb{Q} G$…

We adapt the proof of the Green-Tao theorem on arithmetic progressions in primes to the setting of polynomials over a finite field, to show that for every $k$, the irreducible polynomials in $\mathbf{F}_q[t]$ contain configurations of the…

This paper addresses the factorization of polynomials of the form $F(x) = f_{0}(x) + f_{1}(x) x^{n} + \cdots + f_{r-1}(x) x^{(r-1)n} + f_{r}(x) x^{rn}$ where $r$ is a fixed positive integer and the $f_{j}(x)$ are fixed polynomials in…

The main result of this paper is a generalization of the theorem of Chevalley-Shephard-Todd to the rings of invariants of pseudo-reflection groups over regular domains. More precisely, let $A$ be a regular domain and let $K$ be its field of…

We reconsider the conjecture by Gepner that the fusion ring of a rational conformal field theory is isomorphic to a ring of polynomials in $n$ variables quotiented by an ideal of constraints that derive from a potential. We show that in a…

We study degree preserving maps over the set of irreducible polynomials over a finite field. In particular, we show that every permutation of the set of irreducible polynomials of degree $k$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$ is induced by an action from…

We give lower bounds for the degree of multiplicative combinations of iterates of rational functions (with certain exceptions) over a general field, establishing the multiplicative independence of said iterates. This leads to a…

Let $\S $ be an arbitrary subset of $R^n$ where $R$ is a domain with the field of fractions $\K$. Denote the ring of polynomials in $n$ variables over $\K$ by $\K[\x].$ The ring of integer-valued polynomials over $\S,$ denoted by…

We study factorizations of rational matrix functions with simple poles on the Riemann sphere. For the quadratic case (two poles) we show, using multiplicative representations of such matrix functions, that a good coordinate system on this…

We count the number of irreducible polynomials in several variables of a given degree over a finite field. The results are expressed in terms of a generating series, an exact formula and an asymptotic approximation. We also consider the…

This paper investigates atomic factorizations in the monoid $\mathcal I(R)$ of nonzero ideals of a multivariate polynomial ring $R$, under ideal multiplication. Building on recent advances in factorization theory for unit-cancellative…

Given a finite-dimensional vector space $V$ over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ and a subspace $W$ of $V$, we consider the problem of counting linear transformations $T:W\to V$ which have prescribed invariant factors. The case $W=V$ is a…

We describe birational representations of discrete groups generated by involutions, having their origin in the theory of exactly solvable vertex-models in lattice statistical mechanics. These involutions correspond respectively to two kinds…

We give a method of constructing polynomials of arbitrarily large degree irreducible over a global field F but reducible modulo every prime of F. The method consists of finding quadratic f in F[x] whose iterates have the desired property,…

We discuss interrelations between: Cohn localizations of full square matrices; a Leavitt localization of a row; and the Jacobson quasi-inverses of quasi-regular elements. The latter Jacobson localizations appear naturally and easily in…

For an arbitrary finite monoid $M$ and subgroup $K$ of the unit group of $M$, we prove that there is a bijection between irreducible representations of $M$ with nontrivial $K$-fixed space and irreducible representations of $\mathcal{H}_K$,…

The degree of the generators of invariant polynomial rings of is a long standing open problem since the very initial study of the invariant theory in the 19th century. Motivated by its significant role in characterizing multipartite…

For each odd prime power q, we construct an infinite sequence of rational functions f(X) in F_q(X), each of which is exceptional, which means that for infinitely many n the map c-->f(c) induces a bijection of P^1(F_{q^n}). Moreover, each of…

Let $f(x)=x^8+ax^4+b \in \mathbb{Q}[x]$ be an irreducible polynomial where $b$ is a square. We give a method that completely describes the factorization patterns of a linear resolvent of $f(x)$ using simple arithmetic conditions on $a$ and…
