A classification of (countable) direct limits of finite dimensional involution simple associative algebras over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic is obtained. This also classifies the corresponding dimension groups.…

We distinguish a class of irreducible finite representations of conformal Lie (super)algebras. These representations (called universally defined) are the simplest ones from the computational point of view: a universally defined…

We prove various finiteness and representability results for cohomology of finite flat abelian group schemes. In particular, we show that if $f\colon X\rightarrow \mathrm{Spec}(k)$ is a projective scheme over a field $k$ and $G$ is a finite…

We prove that the commutation relations among the generators of the quadratic Heisenberg algebra of dimension $n\in\mathbb{N}$, look like a kind of \textit{non-commutative extension} of $\hbox{sl}(2, \mathbb{C})$ (more precisely of its…

We survey recent results on multiple transitivity of automorphism groups of affine algebraic varieties. We consider the property of infinite transitivity of the special automorphism group, which is equivalent to flexibility of the…

Let $K/\mathbb{Q}$ be a finitely generated field of characteristic zero and $X/K$ a smooth projective variety. Fix $q\in\mathbb{N}$. For every prime number $\ell$ let $\rho_\ell$ be the representation of $\mathrm{Gal}(K)$ on the \'etale…

Let F be a non-Archimedean locally compact field with residual characteristic p, let G be an inner form of GL(n,F) for a positive integer n and let R be an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from p. When R has…

We prove that an abstract (possibly infinite dimensional) complex irreducible representation of a discrete supersolvable group is monomial if and only if it has finite weight. We also prove a general result that implies converse of Schur's…

Working in the setting of ideally exact categories, we investigate the representability of actions of unital non-associative algebras over a field. We show that, in general, such categories fail to be action representable: for instance, the…

Let $F$ be a $p$-adic field and $\mathbf{U}$ be a unipotent group defined over $F$, and set $U=\mathbf{U}(F)$. Let $\sigma$ be an involution of $\mathbf{U}$ defined over $F$. Adapting the arguments of Yves Benoist in the real case, we prove…

We show that the Baum-Connes morphism twisted by a non-unitary representation, defined in [GA08], is an isomorphism for a large class of groups satisfying the Baum-Connes conjecture. Such class contains all the real semi-simple Lie groups,…

Let $\mathcal{X}$ be an irreducible algebraic curve defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of characteristic $p>2$. Assume that the $\mathbb{F}_q$-automorphism group of $\mathcal{X}$ admits as an automorphism group the direct product of…

For an almost product structure $J$ on a manifold $M$ of dimension $6$ with non-degenerate Nijenhuis tensor $N_J$, we show that the automorphism group $G=Aut(M,J)$ has dimension at most 14. In the case of equality $G$ is the exceptional Lie…

Let $\Lambda$ be a finite dimensional algebra and $G$ be a finite group whose elements act on $\Lambda$ as algebra automorphisms. Under the assumption that $\Lambda$ has a complete set $E$ of primitive orthogonal idempotents, closed under…

We construct new families of groups with property (T) and infinitely many alternating group quotients. One of those consists of subgroups of $\mathrm{Aut}(\mathbf F_{p}[x_1, \dots, x_n])$ generated by a suitable set of tame automorphisms.…

Semi-direct products of finite groups have permutation representations that are constructed from the permutation representations of their constituents. One can envision these in a metaphoric sense in which a rope is made from a bundle of…

A tensor space is a vector space equipped with a finite collection of multi-linear forms. In recent years, a rich theory of infinite dimensional tensor spaces has emerged. In this note, we show that a large class of permutation groups can…

In this article we study the automorphism group ${\rm Aut}(X,\sigma)$ of subshifts $(X,\sigma)$ of low word complexity. In particular, we prove that Aut$(X,\sigma)$ is virtually $\mathbb{Z}$ for aperiodic minimal subshifts and certain…

For $R_1,R_2,R_3,\dots$ a family of non isomorphic rings (or algebras) having each only 2 idempotents ($1$ and $0$), we classify up to isomorphism the rings (or algebras) obtained by taking products of powers of the different $R_i$. We show…
