We extend some aspects of the smooth approximation by conjugation method to the real-analytic set-up and create examples of zero entropy, uniquely ergodic real-analytic diffeomorphisms of the two dimensional torus metrically isomorphic to…
One of the basic questions in number theory is to determine semi-simple l-adic representations of the absolute Galois group of a number field. In this paper, we discuss the question for two dimensional representations over a totally real…
We study first-order expansions of the reals which do not define the set of natural numbers. We also show that several stronger notions of tameness are equivalent to each others.
Let $G$ be a finite group of Lie type. In studying the cross-characteristic representation theory of $G$, the (specialized) Hecke algebra $H=\End_G(\ind_B^G1_B)$ has played a important role. In particular, when $G=GL_n(\mathbb F_q)$ is a…
We study smooth rational closed embeddings of the real affine line into the real affine plane, that is algebraic rational maps from the real affine line to the real affine plane which induce smooth closed embeddings of the real euclidean…
We prove that almost all real numbers (with respect to Lebesgue measure) are approximated by the convergents of their $\beta$-expansions with the exponential order $\beta^{-n}$. Moreover, the Hausdorff dimensions of sets of the real numbers…
We introduce a class of rings, namely the class of left or right $p$-nil rings, for which the adjoint groups behave regularly. Every $p$-ring is close to being left or right $p$-nil in the sense that it contains a large ideal belonging to…
We give a categorical description of all abelian varieties with commutative endomorphism ring over a finite field with $q=p^a$ elements in a fixed isogeny class in terms of pairs consisting of a fractional $\mathbb Z[\pi,q/\pi]$-ideal and a…
We present a characterization of the completeness of the field of real numbers in the form of a \emph{collection of several equivalent statements} borrowed from algebra, real analysis, general topology, and non-standard analysis. We also…
An endomorphisms $\varphi$ of an abelian group $A$ is said inertial if each subgroup $H$ of $A$ has finite index in $H+\varphi (H)$. We study the ring of inertial endomorphisms of an abelian group. Here we obtain a satisfactory description…
In this paper, we investigate abstract homomorphism from the special linear group over complete discrete valuation rings with finite residue field, such as the ring of p-adic integers, into the general linear group over the reals. We find…
The multiplicative group of a number field acts by multiplication on the full adele ring of the field. Generalising a theorem of Laca and Raeburn, we explicitly describe the primitive ideal space of the crossed product C*-algebra associated…
Primarily this paper presents an expository report on alternatives to the traditional methods of classifying representations of finite dimensional algebras. Some new results illustrating such alternatives for algebras with only finitely…
In this article, a new construction of derived equivalences is given. It relates different endomorphism rings and more generally cohomological endomorphism rings - including higher extensions - of objects in triangulated categories. These…
We study the special fibers of a certain class of absolutely simple abelian varieties over number fields with endomorphism rings $\bz$ and possessing $l$-adic monodromy groups of the least possible rank. We also study the Dirichlet density…
We study quasiperiodically forced circle endomorphisms, homotopic to the identity, and show that under suitable conditions these exhibit uncountably many minimal sets with a complicated structure, to which we refer to as `strangely…
We study continuous homomorphisms between algebras of iterated Laurent series over a commutative ring. We give a full description of such homomorphisms in terms of a discrete data determined by the images of parameters. In similar terms, we…
We prove that if $u:K \rightarrow M$ is a left minimal extension, then there exists an isomorphism between two subrings, $\textrm{End}_R^M(K)$ and $\textrm{End}_R^K(M)$ of $\textrm{End}_R(K)$ and $\textrm{End}_R(M)$ respectively, modulo…
Let $A=\mathbb{F}_q[T]$ be the polynomial ring over $\mathbb{F}_q$, and $F$ be the field of fractions of $A$. Let $\phi$ be a Drinfeld $A$-module of rank $r\geq 2$ over $F$. For all but finitely many primes $\mathfrak{p}\lhd A$, one can…
Let R be a ring, M a left R-module, I an infinite set, N either the direct sum or product of |I| copies of M, and E the endomorphism ring of N as a left R-module. In this note it is shown that E is not the union of a chain of |I| or fewer…
