Let $n \geq 2$ be an integer. An \emph{$n$-potent} is an element $e$ of a ring $R$ such that $e^n = e$. In this paper, we study $n$-potents in matrices over $R$ and use them to construct an abelian group $K_0^n(R)$. If $A$ is a complex…

Motivated by his work on the stable rank filtration of algebraic K-theory spectra, Rognes defined a simplicial complex called the common basis complex and conjectured that this complex is highly connected for local rings and Euclidean…

We construct a natural generalization of the Grothendieck group $\mathrm{K}_0$ to the case of possibly unpointed categories admitting pushouts by using the concept of heaps recently introduced by Brezinzki. In case of a monoidal category,…

We describe a software package for constructing minimal free resolutions of GL_n(Q)-equivariant graded modules M over Q[x_1, ..., x_n] such that for all i, the ith syzygy module of M is generated in a single degree. We do so by describing…

Working in a polynomial ring $S=\mathbf{k}[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ where $\mathbf{k}$ is an arbitrary commutative ring with $1$, we consider the $d^{th}$ Veronese subalgebras $R=S^{(d)}$, as well as natural $R$-submodules $M=S^{(\geq r, d)}$…

In this paper, we use $\mathcal D$-split sequences and derived equivalences to provide formulas for calculation of higher algebraic $K$-groups (or mod-$p$ $K$-groups) of certain matrix subrings which cover tiled orders, rings related to…

Let G be a simple algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p>0. Here we classify all irreducible kG-modules for which the principal A1 has no repeated composition factors, extending the work of…

Motivated by the splitting principle, we define certain simplicial complexes associated to an associative ring $A$, which have an action of the general linear group $GL(A)$. This leads to an exact sequence, involving Quillen's algebraic…

Let $k_1,k_2$ be two fields of characteristic 0. Let $G_1$ be a split semisimple algebraic group over $k_1$, $G_2$ a split Kac--Moody group over $k_2$ and $\phi\colon G_1(k_1)\to G_2(k_2)$ an abstract embedding. We show that $\im \phi$ is a…

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 paper we focus on modules over a finite chain ring $\mathcal{R}$ of size $q^s$. We compute the density of free modules of $\mathcal{R}^n$, where we separately treat the asymptotics in $n,q$ and $s$. In particular, we focus on two…

Let L/K be a finite Galois extension of complete local fields with finite residue fields and let G=Gal(L/K). Let G_1 and G_2 be the first and second ramification groups. Thus L/K is tamely ramified when G_1 is trivial and we say that L/K is…

Let $K$ be an extension of $\mathbb{Q}$ and $A/K$ an elliptic curve. If $\mathrm{Gal}(\bar K/K)$ is finitely generated, then $A$ is of infinite rank over $K$. In particular, this implies the $g=1$ case of the Junker-Koenigsmann conjecture.…

We discuss the notion of matrix model, $\pi:C(X)\to M_K(C(T))$, for algebraic submanifolds of the free complex sphere, $X\subset S^{N-1}_{\mathbb C,+}$. When $K\in\mathbb N$ is fixed there is a universal such model, which factorizes as…

Let k be a field. Let K_0(V_k) denote the quotient of the free abelian group generated by the geometrically reduced varieties over k, modulo the relations of the form [X]=[X-Y]+[Y] whenever Y is a closed subvariety of X. Product of…

The quantum Euclidean spheres, $S_q^{N-1}$, are (noncommutative) homogeneous spaces of quantum orthogonal groups, $\SO_q(N)$. The *-algebra $A(S^{N-1}_q)$ of polynomial functions on each of these is given by generators and relations which…

Let $K$ be a field whose characteristic is prime to a fixed integer $n$ with $\mu_n \subset K$, and choose $\omega \in \mu_n$ a primitive $n$th root of unity. Denote the absolute Galois group of $K$ by $\operatorname{Gal}(K)$, and the…

The first purpose of this paper is to set up a general notion of skew power series rings S over a coefficient ring R, which are then studied by filtered ring techniques. The second subject consists of investigating the class of S-modules…

In this short note we present an elementary matrix-constructive proof of Quillen-Suslin theorem for Ore extensions: If $K$ is a division ring and $A:=K[x;\sigma,\delta]$ is an Ore extension, with $\sigma$ bijective, then every finitely…

Let $K$ be the compact Lie group $USp(N/2)$ or $SO(N, R)$. Let $M^K_n$ be the moduli space of framed K-instantons over $S^4$ with the instanton number $n$. By Donaldson (1984), $M^K_n$ is endowed with a natural scheme structure. It is a…
