We introduce the notion of a majority category --- the categorical counterpart of varieties of universal algebras admitting a majority term. This notion can be thought to capture properties of the category of lattices, in a way that…

By an additive action on an algebraic variety $X$ of dimension $n$ we mean a regular action $\mathbb{G}_a^n \times X \to X$ with an open orbit of the commutative unipotent group $\mathbb{G}_a^n$. We prove that if a complete toric variety…

The physical interpretation of the main notions of the quantum group theory (coproduct, representations and corepresentations, action and coaction) is discussed using the simplest examples of $q$-deformed objects (quantum group…

For a complex variety $\hat X$ with an action of a reductive group $\hat G$ and a geometric quotient $\pi: \hat X \to X$ by a closed normal subgroup $H \subset \hat G$, we show that open sets of $X$ admitting good quotients by $G=\hat G /…

We obtain a version of the theorem of the square and a local structure result for actions of connected algebraic groups on seminormal varieties in characteristic 0, and arbitrary varieties in positive characteristics.

We classify the "quotients" of a tannakian category in which the objects of a tannakian subcategory become trivial, and we examine the properties of such quotient categories.

We classify certain subcategories in quotients of exact categories. In particular, we classify the triangulated and thick subcategories of an algebraic triangulated category, i.e. the stable category of a Frobenius category.

We describe complete simplicial toric varieties on which a unipotent group acts with a finite number of orbits. We also provide a complete list of such varieties in the case where the dimension is equal to 2.

We introduce a cohomology set for groups defined by algebraic difference equations and show that it classifies torsors under the group action. This allows us to compute all torsors for large classes of groups. We also develop some tools for…

We present a series of examples of precompact, noncompact, reflexive topological Abelian groups. Some of them are pseudocompact or even countably compact, but we show that there exist precompact non-pseudocompact reflexive groups as well.…

In this paper, we introduce quotients of \'etale groupoids. Using the notion of quotients, we describe the abelianizations of groupoid C*-algebras. As another application, we obtain a simple proof that effectiveness of an \'etale groupoid…

We prove that equivariantly simple invariant singularities can only exist for very few representations of a group of prime order: for real representations and some ``almost, but not quite real'' representations.

We construct a collection of numerical invariants for approximately transitive (AT) actions (of $\Z$). We use them (sometimes supplemented by other invariants to show that members of various one-parameter families of AT actions are mutually…

For a hyperelliptic curve of genus $g$, a divisor in general position of degree $g+1$ is given by polynomial equations. There is an action from an algebraic group on the representations of divisors by polynomials which fixes divisor…

For an object $A$ of a category of interest $\mathbb{C}$ we construct the group with operations ${\mathfrak{B}}(A)$ and the semidirect product ${\mathfrak{B}}(A)\ltimes A$ and prove that there exists an actor of $A$ in $\mathbb{C}$ if and…

It is known that the category of Lie algebras over a ring admits algebraic exponents. The aim of this paper is to show that the same is true for the category of internal Lie algebras in an additive, cocomplete, symmetric, closed, monoidal…

The representation theory for categorical groups is constructed. Each categorical group determines a monoidal bicategory of representations. Typically, these categories contain representations which are indecomposable but not irreducible. A…

If $X$ is a projective variety and $G$ is an algebraic group acting algebraically on $X$, we provide a counter-example to the existence of a $G$-equivariant extension on the formal semi-universal deformation of $X$.

Using the geometric quotient of a real algebraic set by the action of a finite group G, we construct invariants of GAS sets with respect to equivariant homeomorphisms with AS-graph, including additive invariants with values in Z.

Examples of SL(2, Z) actions on differential graded categories are defined and explored.
