In this paper and its sequel we continue our study of nilpotent symplectic alternating algebras. In particular we give a full classification of such algebras of dimension $10$ over any field. It is known that symplectic alternating algebras…
Part of these notes was written as the author's 2013 master thesis. For proper flat schemes over a complete discrete valuation ring of mixed characteristic, we construct an isomorphism of certain subgroups of the Picard group and the first…
These notes are a self-contained introduction to the use of dynamical and probabilistic methods in the study of hyperbolic groups. Most of this material is standard; however some of the proofs given are new, and some results are proved in…
These are the notes for an undergraduate course at the University of Edinburgh, 2021-2023. Assuming basic knowledge of ring theory, group theory and linear algebra, the notes lay out the theory of field extensions and their Galois groups,…
Group algebras have been used in the context of Coding Theory since the beginning of the latter, but not in its full power. The work of Ferraz and Polcino Milies entitled Idempotents in group algebras and minimal abelian codes (Finite…
The purpose of these notes is to collect in one place some facts on the category of finite totally ordered sets and some related categories. More specifically, we collect some results on them which will be useful for the study of iteratedly…
Let G be a simple, simply-connected algebraic group over the complex numbers with Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$. The main result of this article is a proof that each irreducible representation of the fundamental group of the orbit O through a…
Hom-Lie algebras are generalizations of Lie algebras that arise naturally in the study of nonassociative algebraic structures. In this paper, the concepts of solvable and nilpotent Hom-Lie algebras studied further. In the theory of groups,…

We introduce the abstract concept of supernilpotence in loop theory, and relate it to existing concepts, namely, central nilpotence and nilpotence of the multiplication group. We prove that the class of supernilpotence is greater or equal…
Based on M. Hall's theorem we prove a simple result dealing with real numbers which admit exact approximations by rationals.
This paper presents analogous results of Hua [7][8] on numbers of representations of quivers over finite fields which respect nilpotent relations under certain assumptions. A closed formula which counts isomorphism classes of absolutely…
The complexity of the equation solvability problem is known for nilpotent groups, for not solvable groups and for some semidirect products of Abelian groups. We provide a new polynomial time algorithm for deciding the equation solvability…
We obtain strong information on the asymptotic behaviour of the counting function for nilpotent Galois extensions with bounded discriminant of arbitrary number fields. This extends previous investigations for the case of abelian groups. In…
These are expanded notes of a two-semester course on Lie groups and Lie algebras given by the author at MIT.

We show that various invariants of a unipotent conjugacy class in a connected semisimple group can be recovered purely in terms of data involving the Weyl group.
We give the number of nilpotent orbits in the Lie algebras of orthogonal groups under the adjoint action of the groups over $\tF_{2^n}$. Let $G$ be an adjoint algebraic group of type $B,C$ or $D$ defined over an algebraically closed field…
These lecture notes were prepared for a mixed audience of students, postdocs and faculty from the Indian Institute of Technology Madras, India and neighboring institutions, particularly the Institute of Mathematical Sciences. I am not an…
