A pair of symmetric bilinear forms A and B determine a binary form $f(x,y) = disc(Ax-By)$. We prove that the question of whether a given binary form can be written in this way as a discriminant form generically satisfies a local-global…

In this paper we prove a correspondence between a canonical degree six covariant of binary quartic forms $F$ and a cubic covariant of a pair of ternary quadratic forms $(f_A, f_B)$. In the process we obtain a canonical way to diagonalize a…

Let $X, Y$ be smooth algebraic varieties of the same dimension. Let $f, g : X \to Y$ be finite polynomial mappings. We say that $f, g$ are equivalent if there exists a regular automorphism $\Phi \in Aut(X)$ such that $f = g\circ \Phi$. Of…

We determine the rank of a general real binary form of degree d=4 and d=5. In the case d=5, the possible values of the rank of such general forms are 3,4,5. The existence of three typical ranks was unexpected. We prove that a real binary…

A vertex with neighbours of degrees $d_1 \geq ... \geq d_r$ has {\em vertex type} $(d_1, ..., d_r)$. A graph is {\em vertex-oblique} if each vertex has a distinct vertex-type. While no graph can have distinct degrees, Schreyer, Walther and…

For a coefficient free cluster algebra $\mathcal{A}$, we study the cluster automorphism group $Aut(\mathcal{A})$ and the automorphism group $Aut(E_{\mathcal{A}})$ of its exchange graph $E_{\mathcal{A}}$. We show that these two groups are…

Bell and Zhang have shown that if $A$ and $B$ are two connected graded algebras finitely generated in degree one that are isomorphic as ungraded algebras, then they are isomorphic as graded algebras. We exploit this result to solve the…

We consider the space X = Sym^3(C^2) of binary cubic forms, equipped with the natural action of the group GL_2 of invertible linear transformations of C^2. We describe explicitly the category of GL_2-equivariant coherent D_X-modules as the…

We prove that if two path algebras with homogeneous relations are isomorphic as algebras, then they are isomorphic as graded path algebras. This extends a result by Bell and Zhang in the connected case.

We give an explicit upper bound for the number of equivalence classes of binary forms with rational integral coefficients of given degree and given discriminant, and with given splitting field. Further, we give an explicit upper bound for…

In this paper, we prove that a binary definite quadratic form over F_q[t], where q is odd, is completely determined up to equivalence by the polynomials it represents up to degree 3m-2, where m is the degree of its discriminant. We also…

Let $R$ be a finite-dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field $F$ graded by an arbitrary group $G$. We prove that $R$ is a graded division algebra if and only if it is isomorphic to a twisted group algebra of some finite…

Extended modular group $\bar{\Pi}=<R,T,U:R^2=T^2=U^3=(RT)^2=(RU)^2=1>$, where $ R:z\rightarrow -\bar{z}, \sim T:z\rightarrow\frac{-1}{z},\simU:z\rightarrow\frac{-1}{z +1} $, has been used to study some properties of the binary quadratic…

This paper is devoted to the study of graded associative algebras that satisfy a graded polynomial identity of degree $2$. % Let $\mathsf{G}$ be a finite abelian group, $\mathbb{F}$ a field of characteristic zero and $\mathfrak{A}$ a…

The Gruenberg-Kegel graph ${\rm GK}(G)=(V_G, E_G)$ of a finite group $G$ is a simple graph with vertex set $V_G=\pi(G)$, the set of all primes dividing the order of $G$, and such that two distinct vertices $p$ and $q$ are joined by an edge,…

Let $V$ and $W$ be finite dimensional real vector spaces and let $G\subset\GL(V)$ and $H\subset\GL(W)$ be finite subgroups. Assume for simplicity that the actions contain no reflections. Let $Y$ and $Z$ denote the real algebraic varieties…

We introduce a class of algebras over a field $\mathbb{F}$ related to directed graphs in which all edges are labeled by nonzero elements of the field $\mathbb{F}$. If all labels are different from $1$, these algebras are axial algebras. We…

Let $F=(F_1,F_2):C^2 ---> C^2 be a polynomial automorphism. It is well know that deg F_1 | deg F_2 or deg F_2 | deg F_1. On the other hand, if (d_1,d_2) \in (N\{0})^2 is such that d_1 | d_2 or d_2 | d_1, then one can construct a polynomial…

We functorially identify similarity classes of line-bundle-valued quadratic forms on rank two vector bundles with isomorphism classes of pairs consisting of the degree zero and the degree one parts of the associated generalized Clifford…

We prove that for non-linear L = L(R), the Lagrangians L and \hat L give conformally equivalent fourth-order field equations being dual to each other. The proof represents a new application of the fact that the operator <D'Alembertian minus…
