The endomorphism algebras of the permutation modules for transitive permutation groups, known as Hecke algebras, are fundamental objects in representation theory. While group algebras are known to be symmetric over any field, it is natural…

Invariants of generalized tensor fields on a line are classified using special polynomials P_mk^(-1/lambda) introduced here for this purpose. For the case of positive characteristic, a new invariant of formal power series, a width, is…

At finite $N$ the ring of gauge invariant operators is not freely generated. For problems of interest in physics, these rings are Cohen--Macaulay and admit a Hironaka decomposition, in which the full invariant ring is a free module over a…

Consider a Noetherian domain $R$ and a finite group $G \subseteq Gl_n(R)$. We prove that if the ring of invariants $R[x_1, \ldots, x_n]^G$ is a Cohen-Macaulay ring, then it is generated as an $R$-algebra by elements of degree at most…

Permutation polynomials have many applications in finite fields theory, coding theory, cryptography, combinatorial design, communication theory, and so on. Permutation binomials of the form $x^{r}(x^{q-1}+a)$ over $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$ have…

We investigate the question which Q-valued characters and characters of Q-representations of finite groups are Z-linear combinations of permutation characters. This question is known to reduce to that for quasi-elementary groups, and we…

For each subgroup of GL_2(F_p) or order divisible by p, generated by (pseudo-)reflections, we compute the ideals of stable and generalized invariants. These groups and these ideals are related to the cohomology of compact Lie groups,…

An involution over finite fields is a permutation polynomial whose inverse is itself. Owing to this property, involutions over finite fields have been widely used in applications such as cryptography and coding theory. As far as we know,…

Consider the special linear group of degree $2$ over an arbitrary finite field, acting on the full space of $2 \times 2$-matrices by transpose. We explicitly construct a generating set for the corresponding modular matrix invariant ring,…
