In this paper, we investigate the existence of self-dual MRD codes $C\subset L^n$, where $L/F$ is an arbitrary field extension of degree $m\geq n$. We then apply our results to the case of finite fields, and prove that if $m=n$ and…

For $B \subseteq \mathbb F_q^m$, the $n$-th affine extremal number of $B$ is the maximum cardinality of a set $A \subseteq \mathbb F_q^n$ with no subset which is affinely isomorphic to $B$. Furstenberg and Katznelson proved that for any $B…

Docovic and Szechtman, [Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 133 (2005) 2853-2863] considered a vector space V endowed with a bilinear form. They proved that all isometries of V over a field F of characteristic not 2 have determinant 1 if and only if V…

We prove an additivity for evenly (oddly) finite dimensional objects in distinguished triangles in a triangulated monoidal category structured by an underlying model monoidal category. In particular, the result holds in the Q-localized…

We prove that the representations numbers of a ternary definite integral quadratic form defined over F_q[t], where F_q is a finite field of odd characteristic, determine its integral equivalence class when q is large enough with respect to…

A commutator of unipotent matrices of index 2 is a matrix of the form $XYX^{-1}Y^{-1}$, where $X$ and $Y$ are unipotent matrices of index 2, that is, $X\ne I_n$, $Y\ne I_n$, and $(X-I_n)^2=(Y-I_n)^2=0_n$. If $n>2$ and $\mathbb F$ is a field…

We prove that function fields of varieties of dimension at least two over an algebraic closure of a finite field are determined, modulo purely inseparable extensions, by the quotient by the second term in the lower central series of their…

Let F be a field of characteristic different from $2$, and let $UT_2(F)$ be the algebra of $2\times 2$ upper triangular matrices over $F$. For every involution of the first kind on $UT_2(F)$, we describe the set of all $*$-central…

We consider arrangements of n hyperplanes of codimension one in a real projective space of dimension d. Let us denote by F the maximal possible number f of connected components of the complement in the projective space of dimension d to the…

The Triguarded Fragment (TGF) is among the most expressive decidable fragments of first-order logic, subsuming both its two-variable and guarded fragments without equality. We show that the TGF has the finite model property (providing a…

Fields with only finitely many maximal subrings are completely determined. We show that such fields are certain absolutely algebraic fields and give some characterization of them. In particular, we show that the following conditions are…

We prove that the algebraic set of pairs of matrices with a diagonal commutator over a field of positive prime characteristic, its irreducible components, and their intersection are $F$-pure when the size of matrices is equal to 3.…

In the paper, we extend the ADC property to the representation of quadratic lattices by quadratic lattices, which we define as $ n $-ADC-ness. We explore the relationship between $ n$-ADC-ness, $ n $-regularity and $ n $-universality for…

We study the noncommutative superspace of arbitrary dimensions in a systematic way. Superfield theories on a noncommutative superspace can be formulated in two folds, through the star product formalism and in terms of the supermatrices. We…

We study the problem of when a periodic square matrix of order $n$ over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{F}$ is decomposable into the sum of a square-zero matrix and a torsion matrix, and show that this decomposition can always be obtained for…

This paper deals with $n$-dimensional algebras, over any field, which have only trivial derivation (automorphism) and simple algebras. It is shown that the corresponding sets of algebras are not empty and, in algebraically closed field…

In this note, we find a sharp bound for the minimal number (or in general, indexing set) of subspaces of a fixed (finite) codimension needed to cover any vector space V over any field. If V is a finite set, this is related to the problem of…

The projective orthogonal and symplectic groups $PO_n(F)$ and $PSp_n(F)$ have a natural action on the $F$ vector space $V' = M_n(F) \oplus ... \oplus M_n(F)$. Here we assume $F$ is an infinite field of characteristic not 2. If we assume…

We show that any normed space $(K^n,\|\cdot\|)$, $n\ge 2$, over a field $K$ equipped with a nontrivial non-Archimedean valuation admits a paradoxical decomposition using four pieces with respect to the group of its affine isometries,…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field and let $b$ and $n$ be integers with $n\geq 3$ and $1\leq b \leq n-1.$ Consider the moduli space $X$ of hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{P}^n_k$ of fixed degree $l$ whose singular locus is at least…
