In this paper, we consider the mixed tensor space of a $G$-graded vector space where $G$ is a finite abelian group. We obtain a spanning set of invariants of the associated symmetric algebra under the action of a color analogue of the…
We use a description based on differential forms to systematically explore the space of scalar-tensor theories of gravity. Within this formalism, we propose a basis for the scalar sector at the lowest order in derivatives of the field and…
We define a GL-variety to be a (typically infinite dimensional) algebraic variety equipped with an action of the infinite general linear group under which the coordinate ring forms a polynomial representation. Such varieties have been used…
We introduce an algorithm to decide isomorphism between tensors. The algorithm uses the Lie algebra of derivations of a tensor to compress the space in which the search takes place to a so-called densor space. To make the method practicable…
The aim of this paper is to establish a first and second fundamental theorem for $GL(V)$ equivariant polynomial maps from $k$--tuples of matrix variables $End(V)^{ k} $ to tensor spaces $End(V)^{ \otimes n}$ in the spirit of H. Weyl's book…
In this paper, we develop a method based on the analysis of the Kovalewski exponents to study the integrability of anisotropic and homogeneous Universes. The formalism is developed in scalar-tensor gravity, the general relativistic case…
The purpose of this note is a wide generalization of the topological results of various classes of ideals of rings, semirings, and modules, endowed with Zariski topologies, to strongly irreducible ideals (endowed with Zariski topologies) of…
We introduce combinatorial types of arrangements of convex bodies, extending order types of point sets to arrangements of convex bodies, and study their realization spaces. Our main results witness a trade-off between the combinatorial…
A unified field theory for the description of matter in a curved space is discussed. The description is based on a standard Lagrangianian formalism in a pseudo-Euclidian 4D continuum using a 3-index tensor as independent variables. The…
The orthogonal groups are a series of simple Lie groups associated to symmetric bilinear forms. There is no analogous series associated to symmetric trilinear forms. We introduce an infinite dimensional group-like object that can be viewed…
We initiate the systematic study of modular representations of symmetric groups that arise via the braiding in (symmetric) tensor categories over fields of positive characteristic. We determine what representations appear for certain…
We generalise the notions of supersymmetry and superspace by allowing generators and coordinates transforming according to more general Lorentz representations than the spinorial and vectorial ones of standard lore. This yields novel…
We explore systems of polynomial equations where we seek complex solutions with absolute value 1. Geometrically, this amounts to understanding intersections of algebraic varieties with tori -- Cartesian powers of the unit circle. We study…
We study Torelli-type theorems in the Zariski topology for varieties of dimension at least 2, over arbitrary fields. In place of the Hodge structure, we use the linear equivalence relation on Weil divisors. Using this setup, we prove a…
We consider general linear superalgebra (type A) and tensor with Laurent polynomial ring in several variables. We then consider the universal central extension of this Lie superalgebra which we call toroidal superalgebra. We give a faithful…
Carlson introduced the notion of a Ramsey space as a generalization to the Ellentuck space. When a Ramsey space is induced by an algebra, Carlson suggested a study of its purely combinatorial version now called Ramsey algebra. Some basic…
We survey recent classification theorems for expansive matrices that generate the same anisotropic homogeneous Triebel-Lizorkin function space or sequence space. The function spaces are classified precisely by those matrices for which their…
In previous work, the second author introduced a topology, for spaces of irreducible representations, that reduces to the classical Zariski topology over commutative rings but provides a proper refinement in various noncommutative settings.…
We consider the space of tensor densities on the n-dimensional sphere with degree lambda (or, equivalently, of conformal densities with degree lambda). This space is a module over the group of diffeomorphisms, and consequently over the Lie…
A Minkowski class is a closed subset of the space of convex bodies in Euclidean space Rn which is closed under Minkowski addition and non-negative dilatations. A convex body in Rn is universal if the expansion of its support function in…
