Let V be a simple vertex operator algebra and let G be a finite automorphism group of V. In [DY], it was shown that any irreducible V-module is a completely reducible V^G-module where V^G is the G-invariant sub-vertex operator algebra of V.…

Let f be a newform of weight at least 3 with Fourier coefficients in a number field K. We show that the universal deformation ring of the mod lambda Galois representation associated to f is unobstructed, and thus isomorphic to a power…

Degeneration of modules is usually defined geometrically, but due to results of Zwara and Riedtmann we can also define it in terms of exact sequences. This definition also works over fields that are not algebraically closed. Let $k$ be a…

In this paper we study the lower triangular matrix $\mathbb{K}$-algebra $\Lambda:=\left[\begin{smallmatrix} T & 0 \\ M & U \end{smallmatrix}\right],$ where $U$ and $T$ are basic $\mathbb{K}$-algebras with enough idempotents and $M$ is an…

This paper establishes several fundamental structural properties of the $q$-Heisenberg algebra $\mathfrak{h}_n(q)$, a quantum deformation of the classical Heisenberg algebra. We first prove that when $q$ is not a root of unity, the global…

We show that Auslander algebras have a unique tilting and cotilting module which is generated and cogenerated by a projective-injective; its endomorphism ring is called the projective quotient algebra. For any representation-finite algebra,…

We show that a tilted algebra $A$ is tame if and only if for each generic root $\dd$ of $A$ and each indecomposable irreducible component $C$ of $\module(A,\dd)$, the field of rational invariants $k(C)^{\GL(\dd)}$ is isomorphic to $k$ or…

Let $\Lambda$ be an Auslander's 1-Gorenstein Artinian algebra with global dimension two. If $\Lambda$ admits a trivial maximal 1-orthogonal subcategory of $\mod\Lambda$, then for any indecomposable module $M \in \mod \Lambda$, we have that…

We prove a myriad of results related to the stabilizer in an algebraic group $G$ of a generic vector in a representation $V$ of $G$ over an algebraically closed field $k$. Our results are on the level of group schemes, which carries more…

Given a quantized enveloping algebra $U_q(\mathfrak g)$ and a pair of dominant weights ($\lambda$, $\mu$), we extend a conjecture raised by Lusztig in \cite{Lusztig:1992}to a more general form and then prove this extended Lusztig's…

Building on work of the first and last author, we prove that an embedding of simple affine vertex algebras $V_{\mathbf{k}}(\mathfrak g^0)\subset V_{k}(\mathfrak g)$, corresponding to an embedding of a maximal equal rank reductive subalgebra…

Suppose that $\Gamma=(V,E)$ is a graph with vertices $V$, edges $E$, a free group action on the vertices $\mathbb{Z}^d \curvearrowright V$ with finitely many orbits, and a linear operator $D$ on the Hilbert space $l^2(V)$ such that $D$…

Let $kG$ be the group algebra of a finite group scheme defined over a field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$. Associated to any closed subset $V$ of the projectivized prime ideal spectrum $\operatorname{Proj} \operatorname{H}^*(G,k)$ is a thick…

The representations of a quiver Q over a field k have been studied for a long time. It seems to be worthwhile to consider also representations of Q over arbitrary finite-dimensional k-algebras A. Here we draw the attention to the case when…

Let $(V,q)$ be a vector bundle on a smooth projective curve $X$ together with a quadratic form $q: \mathrm{Sym}^2(V) \ra \mathcal{O}_X$ (respectively symplectic form $q: \Lambda^2V \ra \mathcal{O}_X$). Fixing the degeneracy locus of the…

Let X_0 be a compact connected Riemann surface of genus g with D_0\subset X_0 an ordered subset of cardinality n, and let E_G be a holomorphic principal G-bundle on X_0, where G is a complex reductive affine algebraic group, that admits a…

We study algebraic isomonodromic deformations of flat logarithmic connections on the Riemann sphere with $n\geq 4$ poles, for arbitrary rank. We introduce a natural property of algebraizability for the germ of universal deformation of such…

Let G be a finite group and let k be a field of characteristic p. Given a finitely generated indecomposable non-projective kG-module M, we conjecture that if the Tate cohomology $\HHHH^*(G, M)$ of G with coefficients in M is finitely…

For a homomorphism f: A --> B of commutative rings, let D(A,B) denote Ker[Pic(A) --> Pic(B)]. Let k be a field and assume that A is a f.g. k-algebra. We prove a number of finiteness results for D(A,B). Here are four of them. 1: Suppose B is…

Let O be the ring of integers of a number field K. For an O-algebra R which is torsion free as an O-module we define what we mean by a Lambda_O-ring structure on R. We can determine whether a finite etale K-algebra E with Lambda_O-ring…
