This is the addendum to the paper "On the Multiplicity Problem and the Isomorphism Problem for the Four Subspace Algebra" Communications in Algebra, 40:6 (2012), 2005-2036 (DOI: 10.1080/00927872.2011.570830). We give here the full proof of…

Let B be a reductive Lie subalgebra of a semi-simple Lie algebra of the same rank both over the complex numbers. To each finite dimensional irreducible representation $V_\lambda$ of F we assign a multiplet of irreducible representations of…

Given a finitely-generated group G, and a finite group \Gamma, Philip Hall defined \delta_\Gamma to be the number of factor groups of G that are isomorphic to \Gamma. We show how to compute the Hall invariants by cohomological and…

Let $\bold G$ be a reductive algebraic group defined over $\Q$, and let $\Gamma$ be an arithmetic subgroup of $\bold G(\Q)$. Let $X$ be the symmetric space for $\bold G(\R)$, and assume $X$ is contractible. Then the cohomology (mod torsion)…

Let $\mathbb{k}$ be a field, and let $\Lambda$ be a (not necessarily finite dimensional) $\mathbb{k}$-algebra. Let $V$ be a left $\Lambda$-module such that is finite dimensional over $\mathbb{k}$. Assume further that $V$ has a weak…

We call an algebra $A$ commutator-simple if $[A,A]$ does not contain nonzero ideals of $A$. After providing several examples, we show that in these algebras derivations are determined by a condition that is applicable to the study of local…

We develop a general theory for irreducible homogeneous spaces $M= G/H$, in relation to the nullity $\nu$ of their curvature tensor. We construct natural invariant (different and increasing) distributions associated with the nullity, that…

We determine the homological dimension of various isogeny categories of commutative algebraic groups over a field $k$, in terms of the cohomological dimension of $k$ at certain primes. This generalizes results of Serre, Oort and Milne, by…

We generalize the main theorem of Rieffel for Morita equivalence of W*-algebras to the case of unital dual operator algebras: two unital dual operator algebras A and B have completely isometric normal representations alpha, beta such that…

The first Weyl algebra over $k$, $A_1 = k \langle x, y\rangle/(xy-yx - 1)$ admits a natural $\mathbb{Z}$-grading by letting $\operatorname{deg} x = 1$ and $\operatorname{deg} y = -1$. Paul Smith showed that $\operatorname{gr}- A_1$ is…

If G is a pro-p, p-adic, Lie group and if $\Lambda(G)$ denotes the Iwasawa algebra of G then we present a formula for determining the $\Lambda(G)$-rank of a finitely generated $\Lambda(G)$-module. This is given in terms of the G homology…

Suppose that $X$ and $Y$ are surfaces of finite topological type, where $X$ has genus $g\geq 6$ and $Y$ has genus at most $2g-1$; in addition, suppose that $Y$ is not closed if it has genus $2g-1$. Our main result asserts that every…

Let $D$ be a division ring, $\mathcal V$ and $ \mathcal W$ vector spaces over $D$, and ${\mathcal L(\mathcal V,\mathcal W)}$ the ${\mathcal L(\mathcal W)}$-${\mathcal L(\mathcal V)}$ bimodule of all linear transformations from $\mathcal V$…

The descent algebra of the symmetric group, over a field of non-zero characteristic p, is studied. A homomorphism into the algebra of generalised p-modular characters of the symmetric group is defined. This is then used to determine the…

We investigate the representations of the hyperalgebras associated to the map algebras $\mathfrak g\otimes \mathcal A$, where $\mathfrak g$ is any finite-dimensional complex simple Lie algebra and $\mathcal A$ is any associative commutative…

For every simple Hermitian Lie group $G$, we consider a certain maximal parabolic subgroup whose unipotent radical $N$ is either abelian (if $G$ is of tube type) or two-step nilpotent (if $G$ is of non-tube type). By the generalized…

Two decades ago P. Martin and D. Woodcock made a surprising and prophetic link between statistical mechanics and representation theory. They observed that the decomposition numbers of the blob algebra (that appeared in the context of…

We construct a class $\Theta_{\mathscr{R}}$ of homomorphisms from a Specht module $S_{\mathbb{Z}}^{\lambda}$ to a signed permutation module $M_{\mathbb{Z}}(\alpha|\beta)$ which generalises James's construction of homomorphisms whose…

Let $G$ be a group and $R$ be a ring. We define the Gorenstein homological dimension of $G$ over $R$, denoted by ${\rm Ghd}_{R}G$, as the Gorenstein flat dimension of trivial $RG$-module $R$. It is proved that ${\rm Ghd}_SG \leq {\rm…
