We describe the rings of invariants for the finite orthogonal groups of plus type in odd characteristic acting on the defining representations. We also describe the invariants of the corresponding Sylow subgroups in the defining…
Let $c:\mathcal{G}\to\R$ be a cocycle on a locally compact Hausdorff groupoid $\mathcal{G}$ with Haar system. Under some mild conditions (satisfied by all integer valued cocycles on \'{e}tale groupoids), $c$ gives rise to an unbounded odd…
The idea that the cohomology of finite groups might be fruitfully approached via the cohomology of ambient semisimple algebraic groups was first shown to be viable in the papers [CPS75] and [CPSvdK77]. The second paper introduced, through a…
Let G be a closed subgroup of the isometry group of a proper CAT(0)-space X. We show that if G is non-elementary and contains a rank-one element then its second bounded cohomology group with coefficients in the regular representation is…
First an `irregular Riemann-Hilbert correspondence' is established for meromorphic connections on principal G-bundles over a disc, where G is any connected complex reductive group. Secondly, in the case of poles of order two, isomonodromic…
Based on a fact that complex Clifford algebras of even dimension are isomorphic to the matrix ones, we consider bundles in Clifford algebras whose structure group is a general linear group acting on a Clifford algebra by left…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring and $g(t) \in R[t]$ a monic polynomial. The commutative ring of polynomials $f(C_g)$ in the companion matrix $C_g$ of $g(t)$, where $f(t)\in R[t]$, is called the Companion Ring of $g(t)$. Special instances…
A finite group $G$ is called a Schur group if any $S$-ring over $G$ is associated in a natural way with a subgroup of $Sym(G)$ that contains all right translations. We prove that the groups $\mathbb{Z}_3\times \mathbb{Z}_{3^n}$, where…
We determine the unipotent orbits attached to degenerate Eisenstein series on general linear groups. This confirms a conjecture of David Ginzburg. This also shows that any unipotent orbit of general linear groups does occur as the unipotent…
Let F be a subfield of the field R of real numbers. Equipped with the binary arithmetic mean operation, each convex subset C of F^n becomes a commutative binary mode, also called idempotent commutative medial (or entropic) groupoid. Let C…
A large family of "standard" coboundary Hopf algebras is investigated. The existence of a universal R-matrix is demonstrated for the case when the parameters are in general position. Special values of the parameters are characterized by the…
We consider a nonstandard odd reduction of supermatrices (as compared with the standard even one) which arises in connection with possible extension of manifold structure group reductions. The study was initiated by consideration of the…
We consider three families of groups: the Bianchi groups SL(2,O) where O is the ring of integers of an imaginary, quadratic field; the groups SL*(2,O) where O is a *-order of a definite, rational quaternion algebra with an orthogonal…
We continue study of subgroups of a Chevalley group $G_P(\Phi,R)$ over a ring $R$ with a root system $\Phi$ and a weight lattice $P$, containing the elementary subgroup $E_P(\Phi,K)$ over a subring $K$ of $R$. Recently A. Bak and A.…
This paper introduces and studies a new class of rings called {\it $U\sqrt{\Delta}$-rings}. A ring $R$ is $U\sqrt{\Delta}$ if every non-unit element can be written as the product of a unit and an element from $\sqrt{\Delta(R)}$, where…
The paper investigates a significant part of the automorphic, in fact of the so-called Eisenstein cohomology of split odd orthogonal groups over Q. The main result provides a description of residual and regular Eisenstein cohomology classes…
We investigate the normal subgroups of the groups of invertibles and unitaries in the connected component of the identity. By relating normal subgroups to closed two-sided ideals we obtain a "sandwich condition" describing all the closed…
Through the glasses of didactic reduction: We consider a (periodic) tessellation $\Delta$ of either Euclidean or hyperbolic $n$-space $M$. By a piecewise isometric rearrangement of $\Delta$ we mean the process of cutting $M$ along corank-1…
We compute the Chow-Witt rings of the classifying spaces for the symplectic and special linear groups. In the structural description we give, contributions from real and complex realization are clearly visible. In particular, the…
When the standard representation of a crystallographic Coxeter group G (with string diagram) is reduced modulo the integer d>1, one obtains a finite group G^d which is often the automorphism group of an abstract regular polytope. Building…
