Let $\left( H,R\right) $ be a finite dimensional semisimple and cosemisimple quasi-triangular Hopf algebra over a field $k$. In this paper, we give the structure of irreducible objects of the Yetter-Drinfeld module category ${}…

In this paper, we consider the moduli space $\cSU_C(r,\cO_C)$ of rank $r$ semistable vector bundles with trivial determinant on a smooth projective curve $C$ of genus $g$. When the rank $r=2$, F. Kirwan constructed a smooth log resolution…

In this paper we show that certain universal homology classes which are fundamental in topology are algebraic. To be specific, the products of Eilenberg-MacLane spaces ${\cal K}_{2q} \equiv K({\Bbb Z},2) \times K({\Bbb Z}, 4) \times ...…

For $\Gamma$ a relatively hyperbolic group, we construct a model for the universal space among $\Gamma$-spaces with isotropy on the family VC of virtually cyclic subgroups of $\Gamma$. We provide a recipe for identifying the maximal…

Let $Q$ be an algebraic group and $V$ a $Q$-module. The index of $V$ is the minimal codimension of the $Q$-orbits in the dual space $V^*$. There is a general inequality, due to Vinberg, relating the index of $V$ and the index of…

Let $\mathbb{k}$ be a field, and let $\Lambda$ be a (not necessarily finite dimensional) $\mathbb{k}$-algebra. Let $V$ be a left $\Lambda$-module such that is finite dimensional over $\mathbb{k}$. Assume further that $V$ has a weak…

In this paper we show that every rational cohomology class of type $(p,p)$ on a compact K\"ahler manifold can be representated as a differential $(p,p)$-form given by an explicit formula involving a \v{C}ech cocycle. First we represent…

Let $G$ be a a finite group, $k$ a field of characteristic dividing $|G|$ and and $V,W$ $kG$-modules. Broer and Chuai showed that if $\mathrm{codim}(V^G) \leq 2$ then the module of covariants $k[V,W]^G = (k[V]\otimes W)^G$ is a…

Our purpose is to study the cohomological properties of the Rees algebras of a class of ideals generated by quadrics. For all such ideals $I\subset R = K[x,y,z]$ we give the precise value of depth $R[It]$ and decide whether the…

Let $E$ be a elementary abelian $p$-group of order $q=p^n$. Let $W$ be a faithful indecomposable representation of $E$ with dimension 2 over a field $k$ of characteristic $p$, and let $V= S^m(W)$ with $m<q$. We prove that the rings of…

Let $(M, q)$ be a quadratic projective module of an odd rank over an commutative ring, where the form $q$ is semiregular, with global Witt index of at least $2$, and with $\mathrm{rk}(M) \ge 7$. We prove standard commutator formulae and…

We construct some analog of cubical Bloch's higher Chow groups. Instead of considering cycles in $X\times\mathbb A^n$ we consider varieties $Y$ over $X$ together with a distinguished element in the $n$-th exterior power of the…

The quantum Euclidean spheres, $S_q^{N-1}$, are (noncommutative) homogeneous spaces of quantum orthogonal groups, $\SO_q(N)$. The *-algebra $A(S^{N-1}_q)$ of polynomial functions on each of these is given by generators and relations which…
