This paper presents algebraic methods for the study of polynomial relative invariants, when the group G formed by the symmetries and relative symmetries is a compact Lie group. We deal with the case when the subgroup H of symmetries is…

Let K be a field of positive characteristic. When V is a linear variety in K^n and G is a finitely generated subgroup of K^*, we show how to compute the intersection of V and G^n effectively using heights. We calculate all the estimates…

We study determinantal varieties from conditional independence models with hidden variables, focusing on their irreducible decompositions, dimensions, degrees, and Gr\"obner bases. Each variety encodes a collection of matroids, whose flats…

Splitting invariants describe how a plane curve "splits" by the pull-back under a Galois cover over the projective plane whose branch locus contains no component of the plane curve. They enable us to distinguish the embedded topology of…

We introduce geometric invariants for $p$-groups of class $2$ and exponent $p$. We report on their effectiveness in distinguishing among 5-generator $p$-groups of this type.

We show that the fixed elements for the natural GL_m-action on the universal division algebra UD(m,n) of m generic n x n matrices form a division subalgebra of degree n, assuming n >= 3 and 2 <= m <= n^2 - 2. This allows us to describe the…

For an adjoint action of a Lie group G (or its subgroup) on Lie algebra Lie(G) we suggest a method for construction of invariants. The method is easy in implementation and may shed the light on algebraical independence of invariants. The…

Presented approach in polynomial time calculates large number of invariants for each vertex, which won't change with graph isomorphism and should fully determine the graph. For example numbers of closed paths of length k for given starting…

In this paper, we study the vector invariants, ${\bf{F}}[m V_2]^{C_p}$, of the 2-dimensional indecomposable representation $V_2$ of the cylic group, $C_p$, of order $p$ over a field ${\bf{F}}$ of characteristic $p$. This ring of invariants…

We study an operation in matroid theory that allows one to transition a given matroid into another with more bases via relaxing a \emph{stressed subset}. This framework provides a new combinatorial characterization of the class of split…

Let G be a linear algebraic group over a field F and X be a projective homogeneous G-variety such that G splits over the function field of X. In the present paper we introduce an invariant of G called J-invariant which characterizes the…

We fix a field $\kk$ of characteristic $p$. For a finite group $G$ denote by $\delta(G)$ and $\sigma(G)$ respectively the minimal number $d$, such that for any finite dimensional representation $V$ of $G$ over $\kk$ and any $v\in…

In this paper, we study the commuting variety of symmetric pairs associated to parabolic subalgebras with abelian unipotent radical in a simple complex Lie algebra. By using the ``cascade'' construction of Kostant, we construct a Cartan…

In this paper we give a strict classification of $ \mathbb{G}_{a} $-representations. This is done through the notion of a $ c(t) $-pair. Namely if $ \operatorname{Spec}(A) $ is a $ \mathbb{G}_{a} $-variety with action $ \beta $, then a $…

Let $U$ and $V$ be finite-dimensional vector spaces over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{K}$, and $\mathcal{S}$ be a linear subspace of the space $\mathcal{L}(U,V)$ of all linear maps from $U$ to $V$. A map $F : \mathcal{S} \rightarrow V$ is…

Matroid varieties are the closures in the Grassmannian of sets of points defined by specifying which Pl\"ucker coordinates vanish and which don't --- the set of nonvanishing Pl\"ucker coordinates forms a well-studied object called a…

Let G(d,n) denote the Grassmannian of d-planes in C^n and let T be the torus (C^*)^n/diag(C^*) which acts on G(d,n). Let x be a point of G(d,n) and let \bar{Tx} be the closure of the T-orbit through x. Then the class of the structure sheaf…

The fundamental representations of the special linear group ${\rm SL}_n$ over the complex numbers are the exterior powers of $\mathbb{C}^n$. We consider the invariant rings of sums of arbitrary many copies of these ${\rm SL}_n$-modules. The…

We study a family of complex representations of the group GL(n,O), where O is the ring of integers of a non-archimedean local field F. These representations occur in the restriction of the Grassmann representation of GL(n,F) to its maximal…
