We show that the generator of a GNS-symmetric quantum Markov semigroup can be written as the square of a derivation. This generalizes a result of Cipriani and Sauvageot for tracially symmetric semigroups. Compared to the tracially symmetric…

For an integer $m\geq 2$, we aim to investigate the realizability of types of metacyclic-nonmodular groups, whose abelianization is $\mathbb{Z}/2 \mathbb{Z}\times\mathbb{Z}/2^m \mathbb{Z}$, as the Galois group of the maximal unramified…

We consider continuous semigroups of analytic functions $\{\Phi_t\}_{t\geq0}$ in the so-called Gordon-Hedenmalm class $\mathcal{G}$, that is, the family of analytic functions $\Phi:\mathbb C_+\to \mathbb C_+$ giving rise to bounded…

We establish an analog of a theorem of Stallings which asserts the homomorphisms between the universal nilpotent quotients induced by a homomorphism $G \to H$ of groups are isomorphisms provided a pair of homological conditions are…

Let $G$ be a finite subgroup of $\operatorname{PGL}_3(\mathbb{C})$, and let $\sigma$ be the generator of $\operatorname{Gal}(\mathbb{C}/\mathbb{R})$. We say that $G$ has a \emph{real field of moduli} if $^{\sigma}G$ and $G$ are…

Let $ 1 \rightarrow N \rightarrow G \rightarrow Q \rightarrow 1$ be an exact sequence of finitely presented groups where Q is infinite and not virtually cyclic, and is the fundamental group of some closed 3-manifold. If G is Kaehler, we…

For a finite group $G$, let $a_n(G)$ be the number of subgroups of order $n$ and define $\zeta_G(s)=\sum_{n\ge 1} a_n(G)n^{-s}$. Examples are known of non-isomorphic finite groups with the same group zeta function. However, no general…

In [arXiv:1912.02063], we constructed 3-dimensional Topological Quantum Field Theories (TQFTs) using not necessarily semisimple modular categories. Here, we study projective representations of mapping class groups of surfaces defined by…

We mainly study a polynomial $f_{1,n}(x)=x^{n-1} + 2x^{n-2} + 3x^{n-3} + \cdots + kx^{n-k} + \cdots + (n-1)x + n$ over $\mathbb{Z}$ and the Galois group of the minimal splitting field. First, we show that an arbitrary root $\alpha_{n}$ of…

We are interested in semigroups of the form $\langle G,a\rangle\setminus G$, where $G$ is a permutation group of degree $n$ and $a$ a non-permutation on the domain of $G$. A theorem of the first author, Mitchell and Schneider shows that, if…

The abelian sandpile models feature a finite abelian group $G$ generated by the operators corresponding to particle addition at various sites. We study the canonical decomposition of $G$ as a product of cyclic groups $G = Z_{d_1} \times…

In recent years, digraph induced generators of quantum dynamical semigroups have been introduced and studied, particularly in the context of unique relaxation and invariance. In this article we define the class of pair block diagonal…

Let $F$ be a field of non-zero characteristic $p$, let $G$ be a cyclic group of order $q =p^a$ for some positive integer $a$, and let $U$ and $W$ be indecomposable $F G$-modules. We identify a generator for each of the indecomposable…

A nonpolycyclic nilpotent-by-cyclic group Gamma can be expressed as the HNN extension of a finitely-generated nilpotent group N. The first main result is that quasi-isometric nilpotent-by-cyclic groups are HNN extensions of quasi-isometric…

We give an explicit set of generators for the semigroup of the Gr\"obner degeneration of a toric ideal. This set of generators is used to study algebraic properties of the semigroup it generates: approximation of semigroups,…

Skew polynomial rings were used to construct finite semifields by Petit in 1966, following from a construction of Ore and Jacobson of associative division algebras. In 1989 Jha and Johnson constructed the so-called cyclic semifields,…

We provide a homological model for a family of quantum representations of mapping class groups arising from non-semisimple TQFTs (Topological Quantum Field Theories). Our approach gives a new geometric point of view on these…

Let $M$ be a finitely generated skew field over a ground field $k$, and let $G$ be a finite group of $k$-linear automorphisms of $M$. This paper investigates finite generation of the skew subfield $M^G$ of $G$-invariants in $M$, and…

In the paper we describe the group $\mathbf{Aut}\left(\mathscr{C}_{\mathbb{Z}}\right)$ of automorphisms of the extended bicyclic semigroup $\mathscr{C}_{\mathbb{Z}}$ and study the variants $\mathscr{C}_{\mathbb{Z}}^{m,n}$ of the extended…
