Let $\g$ be any simple Lie algebra over $\mathbb{C}$. Recall that there exists an embedding of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ into $\g$, called a principal TDS, passing through a principal nilpotent element of $\g$ and uniquely determined up to…

We study algebraic and arithmetic properties of submonoids (resp. subrings) of factorial monoids (resp. factorial domains) whose non-invertible elements all lie in the conductor. This continues earlier work of Baeth, Cisto, et al.. On our…

In the large rank limit, for any nonexceptional affine algebra, the graded branching multiplicities known as one-dimensional sums, are conjectured to have a simple relationship with those of type A, which are known as generalized Kostka…

In this article we show that some of the recent results of Marino, Moore, and Peradze (math.DG/9812042, hep-th/9812055) -- in particular their conjecture that all closed, smooth four-manifolds with b_2^+ > 1 (and Seiberg-Witten simple type)…

We prove a conjecture due to Makanin: if a and b are elements of the Artin braid group B_n such that a^k=b^k for some nonzero integer k, then a and b are conjugate. The proof involves the Nielsen-Thurston classification of braids.

A set of integers greater than 1 is primitive if no element divides another. Erd\H{o}s proved in 1935 that the sum of $1/(n \log n)$ for $n$ running over a primitive set $A$ is universally bounded over all choices for $A$. In 1988 he asked…

We prove in this paper the Ax-Lindemann-Weierstrass theorem for all mixed Shimura varieties and discuss the lower bounds for Galois orbits of special points of mixed Shimura varieties. In particular we reprove a result of Silverberg in a…

There are several families of atomic monoids whose arithmetical invariants have received a great deal of attention during the last two decades. The factorization theory of finitely generated monoids, strongly primary monoids, Krull monoids,…

We recognise Harada's generalized categories of diagrams as a particular case of modules over a monad defined on a finite direct product of additive categories. We work in the dual (albeit formally equivalent) situation, that is, with…

We show that if $(M,\tensor,I)$ is a monoidal model category then $\REnd_M(I)$ is a (weak) 2-monoid in $\sSet$. This applies in particular when $M$ is the category of $A$-bimodules over a simplicial monoid $A$: the derived endomorphisms of…

Ramified monoids are a class of monoids introduced by the authors. The main motivation for considering these monoids comes from knot theory, see [3, 4, 5]. Thus, in [2] we have studied the ramified monoids of the symmeytric group and of the…

It follows from the work of Artin and Hooley that, under assumption of the generalized Riemann hypothesis, the density of the set of primes $q$ for which a given non-zero rational number $r$ is a primitive root modulo $q$ can be written as…

If $\mathbb{F}$ is an ordered field and $M$ is a finite-rank torsion-free monoid, then one can embed $M$ into a finite-dimensional vector space over $\mathbb{F}$ via the inclusion $M \hookrightarrow \text{gp}(M) \hookrightarrow \mathbb{F}…

Let $p>2$ be a prime. Under mild assumptions, we prove the Iwasawa main conjecture of Kato, for modular forms with general weight and conductor prime to $p$.

Let $M$ be a positive homogeneously presented monoid ${\langle L \mid R\,\rangle}_{mo}$. If $M$ satisfies the cancellation condition and carries certain particular elements similar to the \emph{fundamental elements} in Artin monoids, then…

Let $R$ be a prime ring with center $Z(R)$ and with involution $*$. Given an additive subgroup $A$ of $R$, let $T(A):=\{x+x^*\mid x\in A\}$ and $K_0(A):=\{x-x^*\mid x\in A\}$. Let $L$ be a non-abelian Lie ideal of $R$. It is proved that if…

Several distinct Garside monoids having torus knot groups as groups of fractions are known. For $n,m\geq 2$ two coprime integers, we introduce a new Garside monoid $\mathcal{M}(n,m)$ having as Garside group the $(n,m)$-torus knot group,…

We will introduce two new classes of Dirichlet series which are monoids under multiplication. The first class $\mathfrak{A}^{\#}$ contains both the extended Selberg class $\mathscr{S}^{\#}$ of Kaczorowski and Perelli as well as many…

In a recent breakthrough, Kalmynin resolved conjectures of Lev--Sonn and S\'{a}rk\"{o}zy on additive decompositions of multiplicative subgroups of prime fields. In this paper, inspired by a related conjecture of S\'{a}rk\"{o}zy, we prove…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group written multiplicatively, with $\hat{G} = G\sqcup \{0\}$ the pointed abelian group formed by adjoining an absorbing element $0$. There is an associated finitary, proto-abelian category…
