We determine the exact group structure of the abelianization of $\text{SL}_2(A)$, where $A$ is a Dedekind domain of arithmetic type with infinitely many units. In particular, our results show that $\text{SL}_2(A)^\text{ab}$ is finite, with…
For any positive integer $m$, let $\mathbb{Z}_{m}$ be the set of residue classes modulo $m$. For $A\subseteq \mathbb{Z}_{m}$ and $\overline{n}\in \mathbb{Z}_{m}$, let $R_{A}(\overline{n})$ denote the number of solutions of…
This article deals with a Leibniz superalgebras $L=L_0\oplus L_1,$ whose even part is a simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sl}_2$. We describe all such Leibniz superalgebras when odd part is an irreducible Leibniz bi-module on $\mathfrak{sl}_2…
We present a novel realisation of the $\mathbb{Z}_2\times\mathbb{Z}_2$-graded Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{gl}(m_1,m_2|n_1,n_2)$ inside an algebraic extension of the enveloping algebra of the $\mathbb{Z}_2$-graded Lie superalgebra…
A Lie algebra $L$ of dimension $n \ge1 $ may be classified, looking for restrictions of the size on its second integral homology Lie algebra $H_2(L,\mathbb{Z})$, denoted by $M(L)$ and often called Schur multiplier of $L$. In case $L$ is…
We show that the normalized supercharacters of principal admissible modules, associated to each integrable atypical module over the affine Lie superalgebra $\widehat{sl}_{2|1}$ can be modified, using Zwegers' real analytic corrections, to…
In this paper we study higher level Deligne--Lusztig representations of reductive groups over discrete valuation rings, with finite residue field $\mathbb{F}_q$. In previous work we proved that, at even levels, these geometrically…
Using techniques developed in a recent article by the authors, it is proved that the 2-cohomology of the Lie superalgebra sl(m|1); m > 1, with coefficients in its enveloping algebra is trivial. The obstacles in solving the analogous problem…
Let $L$ be a nilpotent Lie superalgebra of dimension $(m\mid n)$ and $s(L) = \frac{1}{2}[(m + n - 1)(m + n -2)]+ n+ 1 - \dim \mathcal{M}(L)$, where $\mathcal{M}(L)$ denotes the Schur multiplier of $L$. Here $s(L)\geq 0$ and the structure of…
Suppose that $f$ is a homomorphism from the mapping class group $\mathcal{M}(N_{g,n})$ of a nonorientable surface of genus $g$ with $n$ boundary components, to $\mathrm{GL}(m,\mathbb{C})$. We prove that if $g\ge 5$, $n\le 1$ and $m\le g-2$,…
Let $G$ be a finite group and $\mathcal{U} (\mathbb{Z} G)$ the unit group of the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z} G$. We prove a unit theorem, namely a characterization of when $\mathcal{U}(\mathbb{Z}G)$ satisfies Kazhdan's property…
We give necessary conditions for the existence of degenerations between two complex Lie superalgebras of dimension $(m,n)$. As an application, we study the variety $\mathcal{LS}^{(2,2)}$ of complex Lie superalgebras of dimension $(2,2)$.…
If $G$ is a finite Abelian group, define $s_{k}(G)$ to be the minimal $m$ such that a sequence of $m$ elements in $G$ always contains a $k$-element subsequence which sums to zero. Recently Bitz et al. proved that if $n = exp(G)$, then…
We know that $\mathbb{Z}_n$ is a finite field for a prime number $n$. Let $m,n$ be arbitrary natural numbers and let $\mathbb{Z}^m_n= \mathbb{Z}_n \times\mathbb{Z}_n\times...\times\mathbb{Z}_n$ be the Cartesian product of $m$ rings…
Let $p<q$ be odd primes, $\rho_1$ and $\rho_2$ be irreducible representations of $\text{SL}(2,\mathbb{Z}_p)$ and $\text{SL}(2,\mathbb{Z}_q)$ of dimensions $\frac{p+1}{2}$ and $\frac{q+1}{2}$, respectively. We show that if…
Let $G$ be the simple algebraic group $\mathrm{SL}_2$ defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p > 0$. Using results of A. Parker, we develop a method which gives, for any $q \in \mathbb{N}$, a closed form…
We prove that for every positive integer $m$, there exist infinitely many simple abelian varieties over $\mathbb{F}_2$ of order $m$. The method is constructive, building on the work of Madan--Pal in the case $m=1$ to produce an explicit…
Take $S \subset \mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z}) \times \mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})\times \mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$ be finite symmetric and assume $S$ generates a group $G$ which is Zariski-dense in $\mathrm{SL}_2 \times \mathrm{SL}_2\times…
For a positive integer $g$, let $\mathrm{Sp}_{2g}(R)$ denote the group of $2g \times 2g$ symplectic matrices over a ring $R$. Assume $g \ge 2$. For a prime number $\ell$, we give a self-contained proof that any closed subgroup of…
We show that an arbitrary algebra ${ A}$, (of arbitrary dimension, over an arbitrary base field and any identity is not suppose for the product), is semisimple if and only if it has zero annihilator and admits a semi-division linear basis.…
