A set of polynomials $M$ is called a {\it submodule} of $\mathbb{C} [x_1, \dots, x_n ]$ if $M$ is a translation invariant linear subspace of $\mathbb{C} [x_1, \dots, x_n ]$. We present a description of the submodules of $\mathbb{C} [x,y]$…
For a positive integer $n\geq 3$, the sides and diagonals of a convex $n$-gon divide the interior of the convex $n$-gon into finitely (polynomial in $n$) many regions bounded by them. In this article, we associate to every region a unique…
Let $A=\{a_0,\ldots,a_{n-1}\}$ be a finite set of $n\geq 4$ non-negative relatively prime integers such that $0=a_0<a_1<\cdots<a_{n-1}=d$. The $s$-fold sumset of $A$ is the set $sA$ of integers that contains all the sums of $s$ elements in…
This paper is an attempt to apply the tools of supergeometry to arithmetic. Supergeometric objects are defined over supercommutative rings of coefficients, and we consider an integral ring with exactly two odd variables. In this case the…
Schur modules give the irreducible polynomial representations of the general linear group $\mathrm{GL}_t$. Viewing the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_t$ as a subgroup of $\mathrm{GL}_t$, we may restrict Schur modules to $\mathfrak{S}_t$ and…
We determine the graded composition multiplicity in the symmetric algebra S(V) of the natural GL_n(q)-module V, or equivalently in the coinvariant algebra of V, for a large class of irreducible modules around the Steinberg module. This was…
This paper considers a finite group $G$ acting linearly on the variables $V$ of a polynomial algebra, or an exterior algebra, or superpolynomial algebra with both commuting and anticommuting variables. In this setting, the Hilbert series…
We introduce a family of ideals $I_{n,\lambda,s}$ in $\mathbb{Q}[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ for $\lambda$ a partition of $k\leq n$ and an integer $s \geq \ell(\lambda)$. This family contains both the Tanisaki ideals $I_\lambda$ and the ideals…
Let $R$ be a local principal ideal ring of length two, for example, the ring $R=\Z/p^2\Z$ with $p$ prime. In this paper we develop a theory of normal forms for similarity classes in the matrix rings $M_n(R)$ by interpreting them in terms of…
Given a subspace arrangement, there are several De Concini-Procesi models associated to it, depending on distinct sets of initial combinatorial data (building sets). The first goal of this paper is to describe, for the root arrangements of…
The article presents results on the well-known problem concerning the structure of integer polynomials $p_n(z; x, y)$, which define multiplication laws in $n$-valued groups $\mathbb{G}_n$ over the field of complex numbers $\mathbb{C}$. We…
Let $\Gamma_n(\mathcal{\scriptstyle{O}}_\mathbb{K})$ denote the Hermitian modular group of degree $n$ over an imaginary-quadratic number field $\mathbb{K}$. In this paper we determine its maximal discrete extension in $SU(n,n;\mathbb{C})$,…
Let $G$ be a group with identity $e$. Let $R$ be a $G$-graded commutative ring with identity and $M$ a graded $R$-module. In this paper, we introduce the concept of graded $I_{e}$-prime submodule as a generalization of a graded prime…
Let $F$ be an infinite field and $UT(d_1,\dots, d_n)$ be the algebra of upper block-triangular matrices over $F$. In this paper we describe a basis for the $G$-graded polynomial identities of $UT(d_1,\dots, d_n)$, with an elementary grading…
Let $(V,q)$ be a non-degenerate $n$-dimensional quadratic space over the rationals of real signature $(r,s)$. For every integer $1\leq k \leq \min\{r,n-2\}$ we construct classes in the cohomology of arithmetic subgroups of $\mathrm{O}(V)$…

The variety of principal minors of $n\times n$ symmetric matrices, denoted $Z_{n}$, is invariant under the action of a group $G\subset \GL(2^{n})$ isomorphic to $\G$. We describe an irreducible $G$-module of degree $4$ polynomials…
Let $S_{\rm div}(n)$ denote the set of permutations $\pi$ of $n$ such that for each $1\leq j \leq n$ either $j \mid \pi(j)$ or $\pi(j) \mid j$. These permutations can also be viewed as vertex-disjoint directed cycle covers of the divisor…
Let $S = \mathbb{C}[x_{i,j}]$ be the ring of polynomial functions on the space of $m \times n$ matrices, and consider the action of the group $\mathbf{GL} = \mathbf{GL}_m \times \mathbf{GL}_n$ via row and column operations on the matrix…
In this article we define $G$-algebras, that is, graded algebras on which a reductive group $G$ acts as gradation preserving automorphisms. Starting from a finite dimensional $G$-module $V$ and the polynomial ring $\mathbb{C}[V]$, it is…
