Let M be the set of mixed states and S the set of separable states of the two-qubit system, and G = SU(2) x SU(2) the group of local unitary transformations (ignoring the overall phase factor). We compute the multigraded Poincare series for…

In this paper we introduce a notion of Poincar\'e exponent for isometric representations of discrete groups on Hilbert spaces. Similarly as growth exponents control the geometry this exponent is shown to control the size of spectral gaps.…

This paper defines mixed multiplicity systems; the Euler-Poincare characteristic and the mixed multiplicity symbol of $\mathbb{N}^d$-graded modules with respect to a mixed multiplicity system, and proves that the Euler-Poincare…

Let $k$ be a field and $R$ a standard graded $k$-algebra. We denote by $\operatorname{H}^R$ the homology algebra of the Koszul complex on a minimal set of generators of the irrelevant ideal of $R$. We discuss the relationship between the…

A theory of differential characters is developed for manifolds with boundary. This is done from both the Cheeger-Simons and the deRham-Federer viewpoints. The central result of the paper is the formulation and proof of a…

We give a criterion for the existence of a non-degenerate quasihomogeneous polynomial in a configuration, i.e. in the space of polynomials with a fixed set of weights, and clarify the relation of this criterion to the necessary condition…

Let F be a p-adic field and n a positive integer. The local Langlands conjecture asserts the existence of a bijection between irreducible admissible representations of GL(n,F) and n-dimensional admissible representations of the Weil-Deligne…

Let (N, G), where N is a normal subgroup of G<SL_n(C), be a pair of finite groups and V a finite-dimensional fundamental G-module. We study the G-invariants in the symmetric algebra S(V) by giving explicit formulas of the Poincar\'{e}…

For a Lie algebra ${\mathcal L}$ with basis $\{x_1,x_2,\cdots,x_n\}$, its associated characteristic polynomial $Q_{{\mathcal L}}(z)$ is the determinant of the linear pencil $z_0I+z_1\text{ad} x_1+\cdots +z_n\text{ad} x_n.$ This paper shows…

Consider the polynomial ring in countably infinitely many variables over a field of characteristic zero, together with its natural action of the infinite general linear group G. We study the algebraic and homological properties of finitely…

Poincar\'e profiles are a family of analytically defined coarse invariants, which can be used as obstructions to the existence of coarse embeddings between metric spaces. In this paper we calculate the Poincar\'e profiles of all connected…

The degree of the generators of invariant polynomial rings of is a long standing open problem since the very initial study of the invariant theory in the 19th century. Motivated by its significant role in characterizing multipartite…

We formulate and prove a generalized Albanese property for families of maps from a smooth curve over an arbitrary field into a commutative group stack. Our proof, which is mostly self-contained, employs local-to-global techniques and some…
