We show that a tensor product of irreducible, finite dimensional representations of a simple Lie algebra over a field of characteristic zero, determines the individual constituents uniquely. This is analogous to the uniqueness of prime…

We analyze cyclic cell modules over walled Brauer algebra in terms of a certain normal form. The latter allows us to decompose the algebra into the generating set and annihilator ideal of a certain cyclic vector. In addition, we show that…

We construct a new infinite family of pairs of imaginary cyclic fields of degree $(p-1)/2$ explicitly with both class numbers divisible by a given prime number $p$. For the proof, we use the fundamental unit of $\mathbb Q(\sqrt{p})$,…

In this paper we obtain an asymptotic formula for the number of $\operatorname{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$-equivalence classes of positive definite binary quadratic forms over $\bZ$ having bounded discriminant $\Delta = 1-4p$, with $p$ a prime. We…

We show that trivial extensions of gentle tree algebras are exactly Brauer tree algebras without exceptional vertex. We also give a characterization for the algebras whose trivial extensions are Brauer line/star/cycle algebras. As a…

A new class of associative algebras referred to as affine walled Brauer algebras are introduced. These algebras are free with infinite rank over a commutative ring containing 1. Then level two walled Brauer algebras over C are defined,…

For a prime number $p$, an integer $e\geq 2$ and a field $F$ containing a primitive $p^e$-th root of unity, the index of central simple $F$-algebras of exponent $p^e$ is bounded in terms of the $p$-symbol length of $F$. For a nonreal field…

This paper introduces the notion of Brauer-friendly modules, a generalisation of endo-p-permutation modules. A module over a block algebra OGe is said to be Brauer-friendly if it is a direct sum of indecomposable modules with compatible…

We prove the Arad-Herzog conjecture for various families of finite simple groups- if A and B are nontrivial conjugacy classes, then AB is not a conjugacy class. We also prove that if G is a finite simple group of Lie type and A and B are…

Let $k$ be a field containing an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. If $G$ is a finite group and $D$ is a division algebra over $k$, finite dimensional over its center, we can associate to a faithful $G$-grading on $D$ a…

We show that two well-studied classes of tame algebras coincide: namely, the class of symmetric special biserial algebras coincides with the class of Brauer graph algebras. We then explore the connection between gentle algebras and…

Let $A$ be the locally unital algebra associated to a cyclotomic oriented Brauer category over an arbitrary algebraically closed field $\Bbbk$ of characteristic $p\ge 0$. The category of locally finite dimensional representations of $A $ is…

In this paper, we obtain some properties of the symbol algebras, starting from their connections with the quaternion and cyclic algebras over a field $K_{p},$% where $K$ is an algebraic number field, $p$ is a prime in $K$ and $K_{p}$ is the…

We prove that the quotient of the Brauer group of a product of varieties over k by the sum of the images of the Brauer groups of factors has finite exponent. The bulk of the proof concerns p-primary torsion in characteristic p. Our approach…

We prove that the maximal dimension of a subspace $V$ of the generic tensor product of $m$ symbol algebras of prime degree $p$ with $\operatorname{Tr}(v^{p-1})=0$ for all $v\in V$ is $\frac{p^{2m}-1}{p-1}$. The same upper bound is thus…

A new basis of the $q$-Brauer algebra is introduced, which is a lift of Murphy bases of Hecke algebras of symmetric groups. This basis is a cellular basis in the sense of Graham and Lehrer. Subsequently, using combinatorial language we…

Let G be a semisimple, simply-connected algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 0. We observe that the tensor product of the Steinberg module with a minuscule module is always indecomposable tilting.…

Let $X$ be a smooth proper curve defined over a field $k$. The representability of the relative Picard functor is obstructed by a class $\alpha\in\mathrm{Br}(\mathrm{Pic}_{X/k})$. We show the associated division algebra on…

This paper determines the Brauer $p$-dimension Brd$_{p}(K)$ and the absolute Brauer $p$-dimension abrd$_{p}(K)$ of a Henselian valued field $(K, v)$, for a prime $p \neq {\rm char}(\widehat K)$, under restrictions on the residue field…

Given a $(0,p)$-mixed characteristic complete discrete valued field $\mathcal{K}$ we define a class of finite field extensions called \emph{pseudo-perfect} extensions such that the natural restriction map on the mod-$p$ Milnor $K$-groups is…
