Given a vector space $V$ over a field $\K$ whose characteristic is coprime with $d!$, let us decompose the vector space of multilinear forms $V^*\otimes\overset{\text(d)}{\ldots}\otimes V^*=\bigoplus _\lambda W_\lambda(X,\K)$ according to…

Let K be an arbitrary (commutative) field and L be an algebraic closure of it. Let V be a linear subspace of M_n(K), with n>2. We show that if every matrix of V has at most one eigenvalue in K, then dim V<=1+n(n-1)/2. If every matrix of V…

Let $p$ be a prime number with $p\equiv 2\pmod{3}$ and let $n\ge 1$ be a dimension. It is known that a sum-free subset of ${\mathbb F}_p^n$ can have at most the size $\frac13(p+1)p^{n-1}$ and that, up to automorphisms of ${\mathbb F}_p^n$,…

We show that any central simple algebra of exponent $p$ in prime characteristic $p$ that is split by a $p$-extension of degree $p^n$ is Brauer equivalent to a tensor product of $2\cdot p^{n-1}-1$ cyclic algebras of degree $p$. If $p=2$ and…

The function $\mathrm{P}_{\mathbf{v}}(G)$, measuring the proportion of the elements of a finite group $G$ that are zeros of irreducible characters of $G$, takes (as proved in [12]) only values $\frac{m-1}{m}$, for $1 \leq m \leq 6$, in the…

We study the following natural question on random sets of points in $\mathbb{F}_2^m$: Given a random set of $k$ points $Z=\{z_1, z_2, \dots, z_k\} \subseteq \mathbb{F}_2^m$, what is the dimension of the space of degree at most $r$…
