We explore field theories of a single p-form with equations of motions of order strictly equal to two and gauge invariance. We give a general method for the classification of such theories which are extensions to the p-forms of the Galileon…
Let $G$ be a nonabelian group, $A\subseteq G$ an abelian subgroup and $n\geqslant 2$ an integer. We say that $G$ has an $n$-abelian partition with respect to $A$, if there exists a partition of $G$ into $A$ and $n$ disjoint commuting…
I propound a non-linear generalization of the Poisson equation describing a "medium" in D dimensions with a "dielectric constant" proportional to the field strength to the power D-2. It is the only conformally invariant scalar theory that…
A long-standing conjecture asserts that every finite non-abelian $p$-group has a non-inner automorphism of order $p$. In this paper, we settle the conjecture for a finite $p$-group ($p >2$) of nilpotency class $n$ with certain conditions.
We derive maps relating currents and their divergences in non-abelian U(N) noncommutative gauge theory with the corresponding expressions in the ordinary (commutative) description. For the U(1) theory, in the slowly-varying-field…
In this Letter, we construct a set of order parameters for non-Abelian gauge theories which probe directly the unbroken group and are free of the deficiencies caused by quantum fluctuations and gauge fixing which have plagued all previous…
We address the "sums of dilates problem" by looking for non-trivial lower bounds on sumsets of the form $k \cdot X + l \cdot X$, where $k$ and $l$ are non-zero integers and $X$ is a subset of a possibly non-abelian group $G$ (written…
We consider three isogeny invariants of abelian varieties over finite fields: the Galois group, Newton polygon, and the angle rank. Motivated by work of Dupuy, Kedlaya, and Zureick-Brown, we define a new invariant called the weighted…
A long-standing conjecture asserts that every finite nonabelian $p$-group has a non-inner automorphism of order $p$. In this paper we prove the conjecture for finite $p$-groups of coclass $4$ and coclass $5$ ($p\ge 5$). We also prove the…
Owing to subtle issues concerning quantum fluctuations and gauge fixing, a formulation of a general procedure to specify the realization of non-Abelian gauge symmetry has evaded all earlier attempts. In this Letter, we discuss these…
In this paper, we study a combinatorial problem originating in the following conjecture of Erdos and Lemke: given any sequence of n divisors of n, repetitions being allowed, there exists a subsequence the elements of which are summing to n.…
We give a reduction to quasisimple groups for Donovan's conjecture for blocks with abelian defect groups defined with respect to a suitable discrete valuation ring $\mathcal{O}$. Consequences are that Donovan's conjecture holds for…
Generalizations of GL(n) abelian Toda and $\widetilde{GL}(n)$ abelian affine Toda field theories to the noncommutative plane are constructed. Our proposal relies on the noncommutative extension of a zero-curvature condition satisfied by…
This is the second paper in a series on intrinsic Donaldson-Thomas theory, a framework for studying the enumerative geometry of general algebraic stacks. In this paper, we present the construction of Donaldson-Thomas invariants for general…
The Harborth constant of a finite group $G$, denoted $\gs(G)$, is the smallest integer $k$ such that the following holds: For $A\subseteq G$ with $|A|=k$, there exists $B\subseteq A$ with $|B|=\exp(G)$ such that the elements of $B$ can be…
A set of quasi-uniform random variables $X_1,...,X_n$ may be generated from a finite group $G$ and $n$ of its subgroups, with the corresponding entropic vector depending on the subgroup structure of $G$. It is known that the set of entropic…
We obtain a decidability result for the Davenport constant.
We determine the optimal orders for the best constants in the non-commutative Burkholder-Gundy, Doob and Stein inequalities obtained recently in the non-commutative martingale theory.
Non-commutative versions of Arveson's curvature invariant and Euler characteristic for a commuting $n$-tuple of operators are introduced. The non-commutative curvature invariant is sensitive enough to determine if an $n$-tuple is free. In…
In this talk we introduce several topics in combinatorial number theory which are related to groups; the topics include combinatorial aspects of covers of groups by cosets, and also restricted sumsets and zero-sum problems on abelian…
