We study central extensions of the Lie superalgebra $sl_{m|n}(A)$, where $A$ is a $Z/2Z$-graded superalgebra over a commutative ring $K$. The Steinberg Lie superalgebra $st_{m|n}(A)$ plays a crucial role. We show that $st_{m|n}(A)$ is a…

A large family of "standard" coboundary Hopf algebras is investigated. The existence of a universal R-matrix is demonstrated for the case when the parameters are in general position. Special values of the parameters are characterized by the…

Let $\overline G$ be the wonderful compactification of a simple affine algebraic group $G$ of adjoint type defined over $\mathbb C.$ Let ${\overline T}\subset \overline G$ be the closure of a maximal torus $T\subset G.$ We prove that the…

The expansion of a Lie algebra entails finding a new, bigger algebra G, through a series of well-defined steps, from an original Lie algebra g. One incarnation of the method, the so-called S-expansion, involves the use of a finite abelian…

Let $p$ be a polynomial in one variable whose roots either all have multiplicity more than 1 or all have multiplicity exactly 1. It is shown that the universal $C^*$-algebra of a relation $p(x)=0$, $\|x\| \le 1$ is semiprojective. In the…

We show that a wide class of $W$-(super)algebras, including $W_N^{(N-1)}$, $U(N)$-superconformal as well as $W_N$ nonlinear algebras, can be linearized by embedding them as subalgebras into some {\em linear} (super)conformal algebras with…

In this paper, we extend the classical arithmetic defined over the set of natural numbers N, to the set of all finite directed connected multigraphs having a pair of distinct distinguished vertices. Specifically, we introduce a model F on…

We define for real $q$ a unital $*$-algebra $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathbb{R}))$ quantizing the universal enveloping $*$-algebra of $\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathbb{R})$. The $*$-algebra $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathbb{R}))$ is realized as a…

Let $M\subset \mathbb C^n$ be a real analytic hypersurface, $M'\subset \mathbb C^N$ $(N\geq n)$ be a strongly pseudoconvex real algebraic hypersurface of the special form and $F$ be a meromorphic mapping in a neighborhood of a point $p\in…

We present a full geometric characterization of the $1$-dimensional (semialgebraic) images $S$ of either $n$-dimensional closed balls $\overline{\mathcal B}_n\subset{\mathbb R}^n$ or $n$-dimensional spheres ${\mathbb S}^n\subset{\mathbb…

We characterize those varieties of universal algebras where every split epimorphism considered as a map of sets is a product projection. In addition we obtain new characterizations of protomodular, unital and subtractive varieties as well…

We study the crystalline universal deformation ring R (and its ideal of reducibility I) of a mod p Galois representation rho_0 of dimension n whose semisimplification is the direct sum of two absolutely irreducible mutually non-isomorphic…

Let $\mathbb{F}$ denote a field with ${\rm char\,}\mathbb{F}\not=2$. The Racah algebra $\Re$ is the unital associative $\mathbb{F}$-algebra defined by generators and relations in the following way. The generators are $A$, $B$, $C$, $D$. The…

We use the notion of universal extension in a linear abelian category to study extensions of variations of mixed Hodge structure and convergent and overconvergent isocrystals. The results we obtain apply, for example, to prove the exactness…

A Lie superalgebra endowed with a supersymmetric, even, non-degenerate, invariant bilinear form is called a quadratic Lie superalgebra. In this paper we give inductive descriptions of quadratic Lie superalgebras in terms of generalized…

We introduce a new way to study representations of the Lie superalgebra $p(n)$. Since the center of the universal enveloping algebra $U$ acts trivially on all irreducible representations, we suggest to study the quotient algebra $\bar{U}$…

We present an effective criterion to determine if a normal analytic compactification of C^2 with one irreducible curve at infinity is algebraic or not. As a by product we establish a correspondence between normal algebraic compactifications…

We show that some finite W-superalgebras based on gl(M|N) are truncation of the super-Yangian Y(gl(M|N)). In the same way, we prove that finite W-superalgebras based on osp(M|2n) are truncation of the twisted super-Yangians Y(gl(M|2n))^{+}.…

A binarization of a bounded variable $x$ is a linear formulation with variables $x$ and additional binary variables $y_1,\dots, y_k$, so that integrality of $x$ is implied by the integrality of $y_1,\dots, y_k$. A binary extended…

We describe the universal central extension of the three point current algebra $\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathcal R)$ where $\mathcal R=\mathbb C[t,t^{-1},u\,|\,u^2=t^2+4t ]$ and construct realizations of it in terms of sums of partial differential…
