Let F be a field of characteristic not 2 and assume all algebras are over F. We establish several conjugacy theorems for the special linear Lie algebra sl_2 over an F-algebra which is a UFD. We find the structure of the full automorphism…

We characterize in terms of characteristic sequences the semigroups corresponding to branches at infinity of plane affine curves $\Gamma$ for which there exists a polynomial automorphism mapping $\Gamma$ onto the axis $x=0$.

For any finite field $\mathbb{F}$ and any positive integer $n$ we count the number of monic polynomials of degree $n$ over $\mathbb{F}$ with nonzero constant coefficient and a self-reciprocal factor of any specified degree. An application…

We determine the complex-valued solutions of the following functional equation \[f(xy)+\mu (y)f(\sigma (y)x) = 2f(x)g(y),\quad x,y\in S,\] where $S$ is a semigroup and $\sigma$ an automorphism, $\mu :S\rightarrow \mathbb{C}$ is a…

We call a function $f: X\to Y$ $P$-preserving if, for every subspace $A \subset X$ with property $P$, its image $f(A)$ also has property $P$. Of course, all continuous maps are both compactness- and connectedness-preserving and the natural…

We produce a new family of polynomials f(x) over fields K of characteristic 2 which are exceptional, in the sense that f(x)-f(y) has no absolutely irreducible factors in K[x,y] besides the scalar multiples of x-y; when K is finite, this…

Let S be a reduced scheme and let f: X--> S and g: Y-->S be faithfully flat morphisms locally of finite presentation with geometrically connected and geometrically reduced maximal fibers. We discuss the canonical maps…

Graphs constructed to translate some graph problem into another graph problem are usually called auxiliary graphs. Specifically total graphs of simple graphs are used to translate the total colouring problem of the original graph into a…

We obtain a complete classification of all finite-dimensional irreducible modules over classical map superalgebras, provide formulas for their (super)characters and a description of their extension groups. Furthermore, we describe the block…

A new approach has been recently developed to study the arithmetic of hyperelliptic curves $y^2=f(x)$ over local fields of odd residue characteristic via combinatorial data associated to the roots of $f$. Since its introduction, numerous…

In the article a technique of the usage of $f$-continuous functions (on mappings) and their families is developed. A proof of the Urysohn's Lemma for mappings is presented and a variant of the Brouwer-Tietze-Urysohn Extension Theorem for…

In this paper we define a pair of faithful functors that map isomorphic and isotopic finite-dimensional algebras over finite fields to isomorphic graphs. These functors reduce the cost of computation that is usually required to determine…

If A is a finite dimensional nilpotent associative algebra over a finite field k, the set G=1+A of all formal expressions of the form 1+a, where a is an element of A, has a natural group structure, given by (1+a)(1+b)=1+(a+b+ab). A finite…

We show that the extension map \[ \mathcal{E}_{NS}(f)(z)=\frac{f(x+y)+f(x-y)}{2}+i\frac{f(x+y)-f(x-y)}{2}\mbox{ for all }z=x+iy\in\mathbb{H}\,, \] defined by Norton and Sullivan in '96, is the only locally linear extension map taking…

For $0 < p \leq 1 < q < \infty$ and $\gamma > 0$, we introduce the Calder\'on-Hardy spaces $\mathcal{H}^{p}_{q, \gamma}(\mathbb{H}^{n})$ on the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^{n}$, and show for every $f \in H^{p}(\mathbb{H}^{n})$ that the…

Root systems are sets with remarkable symmetries and therefore they appear in many situations in mathematics. Among others, denominator formulae of root systems are very beautiful and mysterious equations which have several meanings from a…

We study the complexity classes P and NP through a semigroup fP ("polynomial-time functions"), consisting of all polynomially balanced polynomial-time computable partial functions. Then P is not equal to NP iff fP is a non-regular…

Let K be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Given a polynomial f(x,y) in K[x,y] with one place at infinity, we prove that either f is equivalent to a coordinate, or the family (f+c) has at most two rational elements. When…

An element w in the free group on r letters defines a map f from G^r to G for each group G. In this note, we show that whenever w is non-trivial and G is a semisimple algebraic group, f is dominant. When G is a finite simple group, the…

Let $\tilde{f}(X)\in\mathbb{Z}[X]$ be a degree-$n$ polynomial such that $f(X):=\tilde{f}(X)\bmod p$ factorizes into $n$ distinct linear factors over $\mathbb{F}_p$. We study the problem of deterministically factoring $f(X)$ over…
