We classify finite groups $G$, such that the group algebra, $\mathbb{Q}G$ (over the field of rational numbers $\mathbb{Q}$), is the direct product of the group algebra $\mathbb{Q}[G/N]$ of a proper factor group $G/N$, and some division…

We study a $q$-version of the chromatic polynomial of a given graph $G=(V,E)$, namely, \[ \chi_G^\lambda(q,n) \ := \sum_{\substack{\text{proper colorings}\\ c\,:\,V\to[n]}} q^{ \sum_{ v \in V } \lambda_v c(v) }, \] where $\lambda \in…

For a function $g\colon\{0,1\}^m\to\{0,1\}$, a function $f\colon \{0,1\}^n\to\{0,1\}$ is called a $g$-polymorphism if their actions commute: $f(g(\mathsf{row}_1(Z)),\ldots,g(\mathsf{row}_n(Z))) =…

In the three-dimensional projective space PG(3,q) over the finite field F_q with q elements, we consider the normal rational curve known as a twisted cubic and the projectivity group G_q that fixes it. For q = 2, 3, 4, we solve the open…

Given a global equivariant ultracommutative ring spectrum $E$ and inclusion $H\hookrightarrow G$ of finite groups, one may apply geometric fixed points to the norm $N_H^G E_H \to E_G$ to obtain what we call a \emph{geometric norm} $\Phi^H E…

The so-called generalized associativity functional equation G(J(x,y),z) = H(x,K(y,z)) has been investigated under various assumptions, for instance when the unknown functions G, H, J, and K are real, continuous, and strictly monotonic in…

Let $G$ be a connected semisimple algebraic group of adjoint type over the field $\mathbb{C}$ of complex numbers and $B$ be a Borel subgroup of $G.$ Let $F$ be an irreducible projective $B$-variety. Then consider the variety…

The project of Greenlees et al. on understanding rational G-spectra in terms of algebraic categories has had many successes, classifying rational G-spectra for finite groups, SO(2), O(2), SO(3), free and cofree G-spectra as well as rational…

Let $H$ be a diagonalizable group over an algebraically closed field $k$ of positive characteristic, and $X$ a normal $k$-variety with an $H$-action. Under a mild hypothesis, e.g. $H$ a torus or $X$ quasiprojective, we construct a certain…

In this thesis we will investigate rational G-spectra for a profinite group G. We will provide an algebraic model for this model category whose injective dimension can be calculated in terms of the Cantor-Bendixson rank of the space of…

Fix a rank g free group F and a connected reductive complex algebraic group G. Let X(F,G) be the G-character variety of F. When the derived subgroup DG in G is simply connected we show that X(F,G) is factorial (which implies it is…

Let $W$ be a subset of the set of real points of a real algebraic variety $X$. We investigate which functions $f: W \to \mathbb R$ are the restrictions of rational functions on $X$. We introduce two new notions: ${\it curve-rational \,…

Let P(x,y) be a rational polynomial and k in Q be a generic value. If the curve (P(x,y)=k) is irreducible and admits an infinite number of points whose coordinates are integers then there exist algebraic automorphisms that send P(x,y) to…

Let $G$ be a connected, complex reductive Lie group and $G/H$ a spherical homogenous space. Let $(X,L)$ be a polarized $G$-variety which is a spherical embedding of $G/H$. In this paper we classify $G$-equivariant normal $\mathbb R$-test…

Let $\Bbbk$ be any field of characteristic zero, $X$ be a cubic surface in $\mathbb{P}^3_{\Bbbk}$ and $G$ be a group acting on $X$. We show that if $X(\Bbbk) \ne \varnothing$ and $G$ is not trivial and not a group of order $3$ acting in a…

Let C be the complex field and K=C((x,y)) or K=C((x))(y). Let G be a connected linear algebraic group over K. Under the assumption that the K-variety G is K-rational, i.e. that the function field is purely transcendant, it was proved that a…

Let $k$ be a field, let $G$ be a reductive group, and let $V$ be a linear representation of $G$. Let $V//G = Spec(Sym(V^*))^G$ denote the geometric quotient and let $\pi: V \to V//G$ denote the quotient map. Arithmetic invariant theory…

We count the $\mathbb{F}_q$-rational points of GIT quotients of quiver representations with relations. We focus on two types of algebras -- one is one-point extended from a quiver $Q$, and the other is the Dynkin $A_2$ tensored with $Q$.…

A Wilf--Zeilberger pair $(F, G)$ in the discrete case satisfies the equation $ F(n+1, k) - F(n, k) = G(n, k+1) - G(n, k)$. We present a structural description of all possible rational Wilf--Zeilberger pairs and their continuous and mixed…

Consider the representations of an algebraic group G. In general, polynomial invariant functions may fail to separate orbits. The invariant subring may not be finitely generated, or the number and complexity of the generators may grow…
