A hyperfinite $II_1$ subfactor may be obtained from a symmetric commuting square via iteration of the basic construction. For certain commuting squares constructed from Hadamard matrices, we describe this subfactor as a group-type inclusion…

The generic digraph $(D,E)$ is the unique countable homogeneous digraph that embeds all finite digraphs. In this paper, we determine the lattice of reducts of $(D,E)$, where a structure $\mathcal{M}$ is a reduct of $(D,E)$ if it has domain…

We obtain (conditional and unconditional) results on large values of $L$-functions $L(s,\chi)$ in the critical strip $1/2 \leq \Re s \leq 1$ when the character $\chi$ runs through a thin subgroup of all characters modulo an integer $q$.…

Let X be a real nondegenerate projective subvariety such that its set of real points is Zariski dense. We prove that every real quadratic form that is nonnegative on X is a sum of squares of linear forms if and only if X is a variety of…

Let $\mathbf{F}_q$ be a finite field of $q$ elements. We show that the normalized Jacobi sum $q^{-(m-1)/2}J(\chi_1,\dots,\chi_m)$ ($\chi_1\dotsm \chi_m$ nontrivial) is asymptotically equidistributed on the unit circle, when $\chi_1\in…

For each simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ of simply-laced type, Hernandez and Leclerc introduced a certain category $\mathcal{C}_{\mathbb{Z}}$ of finite-dimensional representations of the quantum affine algebra of $\mathfrak{g}$, as well…

In 1995 Grillet defined the concept of a stratified semigroup and a stratified semigroup with zero. The present authors extended that idea to include semigroups with a more general base and proved, amongst other things, that finite…

For many equation-theoretical questions about modular lattices, Hall and Dilworth give a useful construction: Let $L_0$ be a lattice with largest element $u_0$, $L_1$ be a lattice disjoint from $L_0$ with smallest element $v_1$, and $a \in…

We survey a number of different methods for computing $L(\chi,1-k)$ for a Dirichlet character $\chi$, with particular emphasis on quadratic characters. The main conclusion is that when $k$ is not too large (for instance $k\le100$) the best…

Let $X$ be a del Pezzo surface of degree $2$ or greater over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. The image $\Gamma$ of the Galois group $\operatorname{Gal}(\overline{\mathbb{F}}_q / \mathbb{F}_q)$ in the group…

In the article, we consider a question concerning the estimation of summatory function of the Fourier coefficients of Hecke eigenforms indexed by a sparse set of integers. In particular, we provide an estimate for the following sum;…

Let M be an imaginary quadratic field, f a Hecke eigenform on GL2(Q) and \pi the unitary base-change to M of the automorphic representation associated to f. Take a unitary arithmetic Hecke character \chi of M inducing the inverse of the…

Two $q$-analogs of the hypercube graph are introduced and shown to be related through a graph quotient. The roles of the subspace lattice graph, of a twisted primitive elements of $U_q(\mathfrak{su}(2))$ and of the dual $q$-Krawtchouk…

We compute asymptotic formulae for the mollified first and second moments for the family of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions in the function field setting. As an application, we obtain non-vanishing results for the derivatives of the…

Let X be a compact connected Riemann surface. Fix a positive integer r and two nonnegative integers d_p and d_z. Consider all pairs of the form (F, f), where F is a holomorphic vector bundle on X of rank r and degree d_z-d_p, and f :…

We study isolated quotient singularities by finite and linearly reductive group schemes (lrq singularities for short) and show that they satisfy many, but not all, of the known properties of finite quotient singularities in characteristic…

An irreducible character $\chi$ of an association scheme is called nonlinear if the multiplicity of $\chi$ is greater than $1$. The main result of this paper gives a characterization of commutative association schemes with at most two…

We establish that three well-known and rather different looking conjectures about Dirichlet characters and their (weighted) sums, (concerning the P\'{o}lya-Vinogradov theorem for maximal character sums, the maximal admissible range in…

We study lattice sums $\sum \frac{1}{(\|x\|\|y\|\|x+y\|)^s}$ taken over $SL_+(2,\mathbb Z)$, i.e.\ the set of pairs $(x,y)$ of primitive lattice vectors in $\mathbb Z_{\geq 0}^2$ with $\det(x, y) = 1$. We prove convergence of these and…

We determine the exact group structure of the abelianization of $\text{SL}_2(A)$, where $A$ is a Dedekind domain of arithmetic type with infinitely many units. In particular, our results show that $\text{SL}_2(A)^\text{ab}$ is finite, with…
