We introduce equivariant versions of uniform rationality: given an algebraic group G, a G-variety is called G-uniformly rational (resp. G-linearly uniformly rational) if every point has a G-invariant open neighborhood equivariantly…
Much work has been done to study groups with few rational conjugacy classes or few rational irreducible characters. In this paper we look at the opposite extreme. Let $G$ be a finite group. Given a conjugacy class $K$ of $G$, we say it is…
We call a group $G$ {\it algorithmically finite} if no algorithm can produce an infinite set of pairwise distinct elements of $G$. We construct examples of recursively presented infinite algorithmically finite groups and study their…
We study the class of groups having the property that every non-nilpotent subgroup is equal to its normalizer. These groups are either soluble or perfect. We completely describe the structure of soluble groups and finite perfect groups with…
We compute the field of rational local unitary invariants for locally maximally mixed states and symmetrically mixed states of two qubits. In both cases, we prove that the field of rational invariants is purely transcendental. We also…
We present a natural extension of the notion of nondegenerate rational maps (quadrirational maps) to arbitrary dimensions. We refer to these maps as $2^n-$rational maps. In this note we construct a rich family of $2^n-$rational maps. These…
An irreducible ordinary character of a finite reductive group is called quadratic unipotent if it corresponds under Jordan decomposition to a semisimple element $s$ in a dual group such that $s^2=1$. We prove that there is a bijection…
We investigate classifications of quasitrivial semigroups defined by certain equivalence relations. The subclass of quasitrivial semigroups that preserve a given total ordering is also investigated. In the special case of finite semigroups,…
Degree bounds for algebra generators of invariant rings are a topic of longstanding interest in invariant theory. We study the analogous question for field generators for the field of rational invariants of a representation of a finite…
We continue our study of exponent semigroups of rational matrices. Our main result is that the matricial dimension of a numerical semigroup is at most its multiplicity (the least generator), greatly improving upon the previous upper bound…
We study the complex irreducible representations of special linear, symplectic, orthogonal and unitary groups over principal ideal local rings of length two. We construct a canonical correspondence between the irreducible representations of…
An irreducible norm closed semigroup of complex matrices is simultaneously similar to a semigroup of partial isometries if and only if (a) the norms of all nonzero members of it are uniformly bounded above and below, and (b) its idempotents…
When a semigroup has a unary operation, it is possible to define two binary operations, namely, left and right division. In addition it is well known that groups can be defined in terms of those two divisions. The aim of this paper is to…
This paper examines fields of rationality in families of cuspidal automorphic representations of unitary groups. Specifically, for a fixed $A$ and a sufficiently large family $\mathcal{F}$, a small proportion of representations $\pi\in…
In this article we extend independent results of Lusztig and H\'ezard concerning the existence of irreducible characters of finite reductive groups, (defined in good characteristic and arising from simple algebraic groups), satisfying a…
We study rationality properties of irreducible characters of finite groups. We show that the continuity of $2$-rationality is a phenomenon that can be detected in the principal $2$-block, thus refining a recent result of N. N. Hung. We also…
In this work, we establish a relationship between the sum of irreducible character degrees and the number of twisted involutions associated with the automorphisms of a finite group. We develop algorithmic frameworks for evaluating these…
We study unitary representations of semidirect products of a compact quantum group with a finite group. We give a classification of all irreducible unitary representations, a description of the conjugate representation of irreducible…
We show that the intersection of the rational derived series of a one-relator group is rationally perfect and is normally generated by a single element. As a corollary, we characterise precisely when a one-relator group is residually…
We formulate some problems and conjectures about semigroups of rational functions under composition. The considered problems arise in different contexts, but most of them are united by a certain relationship to the concept of amenability.
