Let R be a semi-local regular ring containing an infinite perfect field, and let K be the field of fractions of R. Let H be a simple algebraic group of type F_4 over R such that H_K is the automorphism group of a 27-dimensional Jordan…

We solve a fundamental question posed in Frohardt's 1988 paper [8] on finite $2$-groups with Kantor familes, by showing that finite groups $K$ with a Kantor family $(\mathcal{F},\mathcal{F}^*)$ having distinct members $A, B \in \mathcal{F}$…

The only known skew-translation generalised quadrangles (STGQ) having order $(q,q)$, with $q$ even, are translation generalised quadrangles. Equivalently, the only known groups $G$ of order $q^3$, $q$ even, admitting an Ahrens-Szekeres…

We prove that within a natural class of E_3-algebras, the graded Tor group induced by a span of E_3-algebra maps carries a graded algebra structure generalizing the classical structure when the algebras are genuine commutative differential…

We prove an equidistribution theorem for a family of holomorphic Siegel cusp forms for $GSp_4/\mathbb{Q}$ in various aspects. A main tool is Arthur's invariant trace formula. While Shin and Shin-Templier used Euler-Poincar\'e functions at…

In this paper, we study the symmetric rank of products of linear forms and an irreducible quadratic form. The main result presents a new, non-trivial lower bound for the rank, and the arguments rely on the apolarity lemma. In the special…

Let $R$ be a positively graded algebra over a field. We say that $R$ is Hilbert-cyclotomic if the numerator of its reduced Hilbert series has all of its roots on the unit circle. Such rings arise naturally in commutative algebra, numerical…

We give a rank augmentation technique for rank 3 string C-group representations of the symmetric group $S_n$ and list the hypotheses under which it yields a valid string C-group representation of rank 4 thereof.

We consider quantum group representations for a semisimple algebraic group G at a complex root of unity q. Here q is allowed to be of any order. We revisit some fundamental results of Parshall-Wang and Andersen-Polo-Wen from the 90's. In…

We extend the classical notion of standardly stratified $k$-algebra (stated for finite dimensional $k$-algebras) to the more general class of rings, possibly without $1,$ with enough idempotents. We show that many of the fundamental…

The Grothendieck--Serre conjecture predicts that every generically trivial torsor under a reductive group over a regular semilocal ring is itself trivial. Extending the work of \v{C}esnavi\v{c}ius and Fedorov, we prove a non-noetherian…

We classify irreducible SL(2,K)-modules of low Morley rank (at most 4.rk(K)) as a first step towards a more general conjecture.

This paper establishes an analogue of the special chain theorem for the embedding dimension of polynomial rings, with direct application on the (embedding) codimension. In particular, we recover a classic result on the transfer of…

We show that the hermitian K-theory space of a commutative ring R can be identified, up to A^1-homotopy, with the group completion of the groupoid of oriented finite Gorenstein R-algebras, i.e., finite locally free R-algebras with…

Except for the Hermitian buildings $\mathcal{H}(4,q^2)$, up to a combination of duality, translation duality or Payne integration, every known finite building of type $\mathbb{B}_2$ satisfies a set of general synthetic properties, usually…

In this paper we prove local-global principles for embedding of fields with involution into central simple algebras with involution over a global field. These should be of interest in study of classical groups over global fields. We deduce…

Generalized Baxter's relations on the transfer-matrices (also known as Baxter's TQ relations) are constructed and proved for an arbitrary untwisted quantum affine algebra. Moreover, we interpret them as relations in the Grothendieck ring of…

In a classic paper, Gerstenhaber showed that first order deformations of an associative k-algebra A are controlled by the second Hochschild cohomology group of A. More generally, any n-parameter first order deformation of A gives, due to…

Let $k$ be a field and $G$ be a finite group acting on the rational function field $k(x_g : g\in G)$ by $k$-automorphisms defined as $h(x_g)=x_{hg}$ for any $g,h\in G$. We denote the fixed field $k(x_g : g\in G)^G$ by $k(G)$. Noether's…

We consider the problem of classifying (possibly noncommutative) R-algebras of low rank over an arbitrary base ring R. We first classify algebras by their degree, and we relate the class of algebras of degree 2 to algebras with a standard…
