For the largest exceptional simple Lie superalgebra $F(4)$, having dimension $(24|16)$, we provide two explicit geometric realizations as supersymmetries, namely as the symmetry superalgebra of super-PDE systems of second and third order…
We present a classification of the so-called "additive symmetric 2-cocycles" of arbitrary degree and dimension over Z/p, along with a partial result and some conjectures for m-cocycles over Z/p, m > 2. This expands greatly on a result…
The algebras of the title are infinite-dimensional graded Lie algebras $L= \bigoplus_{i=1}^{\infty}L_i$, over a field of positive characteristic $p$, that are generated by an element of degree $1$ and an element of degree $p$, and satisfy…
We prove that if $B\subseteq A$ is an extension of finite dimensional algebras such that the projective dimension of $A/B$ as a $B$-bimodule is finite, if $A$ has finite finitistic dimension, then so does $B$. We exhibit examples…
We prove that Z-stable, simple, separable, nuclear, non-unital C*-algebras have nuclear dimension at most 1. This completes the equivalence between finite nuclear dimension and Z-stability for simple, separable, nuclear, non-elementary…
Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a separable nuclear C*-algebra, and $\mathcal{B}$ be a nonunital separable simple $\mathcal{Z}$-stable C*-algebra. Continuing the work from Gabe-Lin-Ng, we classify all essential extensions, with large complement, of…
In this paper, we compute the essential $l$-dimension of the finite groups of classical Lie type for odd primes $l$ not equal to the defining prime, specifically the general linear groups, the symplectic groups, the orthogonal groups, and…
We consider varieties generated by finite closure algebras whose canonical relations have two levels, and whose restriction to a level is an "extremal" relation, i.e. the identity or the universal relation. The corresponding logics have…
In this paper, we prove some computational results about equivariant cohomology over the cyclic group $C_{p^n}$ of prime power order. We show that there is an inductive formula when the dimension of the $C_p$-fixed points of the grading is…
We consider the Poisson cylinder model in ${\mathbb R}^d$, $d\ge 3$. We show that given any two cylinders ${\mathfrak c}_1$ and ${\mathfrak c}_2$ in the process, there is a sequence of at most $d-2$ other cylinders creating a connection…
We prove that any closed map between metrizable spaces can be extended to a closed map between completely metrizable spaces with the same extensional dimension.
Planar linkages are a rich area of study motivated by practical applications in engineering mechanisms. A central result is Kempe's Universality Theorem, which states that semi-algebraic sets can be realized by planar linkages. Polyhedral…
Combining a characterisation by B\'elair, Kaplan, Scanlon and Wagner of certain $\rm NIP$ valued fields of characteristic $p$ with Dickson's construction of cyclic algebras, we provide examples of noncommutative $\rm NIP$ division ring of…
We develop the theory of ``branch algebras'', which are infinite-dimensional associative algebras that are isomorphic, up to taking subrings of finite codimension, to a matrix ring over themselves. The main examples come from groups acting…
A result of Barnea and Isaacs states that if $L$ is a finite dimensional nilpotent Lie algebra with exactly two distinct centralizer dimensions, then nilpotency class of $L$ is either $2$ or $3$. In this article, we classify all such finite…
We prove that the essential dimension of the spinor group Spin_n grows exponentially with n; in particular, we give a precise formula for this essential dimension when n is not divisible by 4. We use this result to show that the number of…
The structure of nilpotent symplectic algebras of maximal class has been studied in [8, 5]. In this paper, we study the dual subclass of algebras of minimal class. In particular, we show that symplectic alternating algebras of dimension up…
We prove that a Hopf algebra of prime dimension $p$ over an algebraically closed field, whose characteristic is equal to $p$, is either a group algebra or a restricted universal enveloping algebra. Moreover, we show that any Hopf algebra of…
We prove that if the maximal dimension of an anisotropic homogeneous polynomial form of prime degree $p$ over a field $F$ with $\operatorname{char}(F)=p$ is a finite integer $d$ greater than 1 then the symbol length of $p$-algebras of…
In this note for $p>5$ we calculate the dimensions of ${\rm Ext}^1_{{\rm SL}_2(\mathbb{Q}_p)}(\tau, \sigma)$ for any two irreducible supersingular representations $\tau$ and $\sigma$ of ${\rm SL}_2(\mathbb{Q}_p)$.
