New features of systems with non-trivial topology such as fractional quantum numbers, inequivalent quantizations, good operators, topological anomalies, etc. are described in the framework of an algebraic quantization procedure on a group.…
We show that all of the nice behavior for Tamagawa numbers, Tate-Shafarevich sets, and other arithmetic invariants of pseudo-reductive groups over global function fields proved in \cite{rospred} fails in general for non-commutative…
In the classical theory of toric manifolds polytopes appear in two guises -- as Newton polytopes of line bundles on the complex, and as moment polytopes on the symplectic side, the link between the two being established by the…
We study torsors for groups defined by algebraic difference equations. Our main result provides necessary and sufficient conditions on the base difference field for all such torsors to be trivial. We also present an application to the…
We utilize group-theoretical methods to develop a matrix representation of differential operators that act on tensors of any rank. In particular, we concentrate on the matrix formulation of the curl operator. A self-adjoint matrix of the…
We define a "circle Euler characteristic" of a circle action on a compact manifold or finite complex X. It lies in the first Hochschild homology group of ZG where G is the fundamental group of X. It is analogous in many ways to the ordinary…
We systematically analyze the large-$N$ limit of the superconformal index of $\mathcal{N}=1$ superconformal theories having a quiver description. The index of these theories is known in terms of unitary matrix integrals, which we calculate…
We introduce the notion of a graded group action on a graded algebra or, which is the same, a group action by graded pseudoautomorphisms. An algebra with such an action is a natural generalization of an algebra with a super- or a…
We completely classify Laurent series converging on the unit circle over a non-Archimedean local field (of any characteristic) that map infinitely many roots of unity to roots of unity. For a given Laurent series $f$ over a field of…
The peak algebra is a unital subalgebra of the symmetric group algebra, linearly spanned by sums of permutations with a common set of peaks. By exploiting the combinatorics of sparse subsets of [n-1] (and of certain classes of compositions…
We give an optimal-size representation for the elements of the trace zero subgroup of the Picard group of an elliptic or hyperelliptic curve of any genus, with respect to a field extension of any prime degree. The representation is via the…
We explore some of the special features with respect to Bredon cohomology of groups having all its finite subgroups either nilpotent or p-groups or cyclic p-groups. We get some results on dimensions and also a formula for the equivariant…
We use a $p$-adic analogue of the analytic subgroup theorem of W\"ustholz to deduce the transcendence and linear independence of some new classes of $p$-adic numbers. In particular we give $p$-adic analogues of results of W\"ustholz…
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 prove that the Picard group of the moduli space of semistable G-bundles on any irreducible smooth projective curve is isomorphic with the group of integers.
We show that the sign of the Euler characteristic of an $S$-arithmetic subgroup of a simple algebraic group depends on the $S$-congruence completion only, except possibly in type ${}^6 D_4$. Consequently, the sign is a profinite invariant…
Let $\overline{\mathfrak{S}}_\infty$ denote the set of all bijections of natural numbers. Consider the action of $\overline{\mathfrak{S}}_\infty$ on a measure space $\left( X,\mathfrak{M},\mu \right)$, where $\mu$ is…
The aim of this manuscript is to give some basic notions related to numerical semigroups, and from these on the one hand describe a classical application to the study of singularities of plane algebraic curves, and on the other, show how…
Arithmetic quotients are quotients of bounded symmetric domains by arithmetic groups, and modular subvarieties of arithmetic quotients are themselves arithmetic quotients of lower dimension which live on arithmetic quotients, by an…
We describe the maximal torus and maximal unipotent subgroup of the Picard variety of a proper scheme over a perfect field.
