Orthogonal spaces are vector spaces together with a quadratic form whose associated bilinear form is non-degenerate. Over fields of characteristic two, there are many quadratic forms associated to a given bilinear form and quadratic…
Let K be an arbitrary (commutative) field and L be an algebraic closure of it. Let V be a linear subspace of M_n(K), with n>2. We show that if every matrix of V has at most one eigenvalue in K, then dim V<=1+n(n-1)/2. If every matrix of V…
A vector space A of matrices is called rank-critical if any vector space that properly contains A has a strictly higher generic rank. I present a sufficient condition for A to be rank-critical, and apply this condition to prove that certain…
Let $W$ be an $n$-dimensional vector space over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of any characteristic and $mW$ denote the direct sum of $m$ copies of $W$. Let $\mathbb{F}_q[mW]^{{\rm GL}(W)}$ and $\mathbb{F}_q(mW)^{{\rm GL}(W)}$ denote the…
We study multihomogeneous spaces corresponding to ${\mathbb Z}^n$-graded algebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 and their relation with the description of $T$-varieties.
We define a new grading, that we call the "level grading", on the algebra of polynomials generated by the derivatives $u_{k+i}=\partial^{k+i}u/\partial x^{k+i}$ over the ring $K^{(k)}$ of $C^{\infty}$ functions of $u,u_1,...,u_k$. This…
It is known after Jouanolou that a general holomorphic foliation of degree $\geq2$ in projective space has no algebraic leaf. We give formulas for the degrees of the subvarieties of the parameter space of one-dimensional foliations that…
The Amitsur-Levitski theorem asserts that $M_n(F)$ satisfies a polynomial identity of degree $2n$. (Here, $F$ is a field and $M_n(F)$ is the algebra of $n \times n$ matrices over $F$). It is easy to give examples of subalgebras of $M_n(F)$…
Let $F$ be a field of characteristic zero. We prove that if a group grading on $UT_m(F)$ admits a graded involution then this grading is a coarsening of a $\mathbb{Z}^{\lfloor\frac{m}{2}\rfloor}$-grading on $UT_m(F)$ and the graded…
Let ${\mathbb{F}_{q}}$ be the finite field of order $q$. Let $G$ be one of the three groups ${\rm GL}(n, \mathbb{F}_q)$, ${\rm SL}(n, \mathbb{F}_q)$ or ${\rm U}(n, \mathbb{F}_q)$ and let $W$ be the standard $n$-dimensional representation of…
The classification of algebraic vector bundles of rank 2 over smooth affine fourfolds is a notoriously difficult problem. Isomorphism classes of such vector bundles are not uniquely determined by their Chern classes, in contrast to the…
Let $G$ be a reductive group defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$ such that the Dynkin diagram of $G$ is the disjoint union of diagrams of types $G_{2}, F_{4}, E_{6}, E_{7}, E_{8}$. We show that the degree $3$…
An important aspect in the theory of algebras with polynomial identities is the study of the asymptotic behavior of the codimension sequence $c_n(A),\, n\geq 1,$ which measures the growth of polynomial identities of a given algebra $A$. In…
Let $U$ and $V$ be finite-dimensional vector spaces over a (commutative) field $\mathbb{K}$, and $\mathcal{S}$ be a linear subspace of the space $\mathcal{L}(U,V)$ of all linear operators from $U$ to $V$. A map $F : \mathcal{S} \rightarrow…
Polynomial identities of two-dimensional Novikov algebras are studied over the complex field $\mathbb{C}$. We determine minimal generating sets for the T-ideals of the polynomial identities and linear bases for the corresponding relatively…
In this paper we study of *-representations for polynomial algebras on quantum matrix spaces. We deal with two special cases of the polynomial algebras, namely the algebra of polynomials on quantum complex matrices $\mathrm{Mat_2}$ and on…
Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a field of characteristic different from $2$ and $3$, and let $V$ be a vector space of dimension $2$ over $\mathbb{F}$. The generic classification of homogeneous quadratic maps $f\colon V\to V$ under the action of the…
In this article, we prove that a free divisor in a three dimensional complex manifold must be Euler homogeneous in a strong sense if the cohomology of its complement is the hypercohomology of its logarithmic differential forms. F.J.…
We show that the Hochschild-Kostant-Rosenberg map from the space of multivector fields on a graded manifold N (endowed with a Berezinian volume) to the cohomology of the algebra of multidifferential operators on N (as a subalgebra of the…
Let $K$ be any field with $\textup{char}K\neq 2,3$. We classify all cubic homogeneous polynomial maps $H$ over $K$ with $\textup{rk} JH\leq 2$. In particular, we show that, for such an $H$, if $F=x+H$ is a Keller map then $F$ is invertible,…
