In this paper, we prove that the variety $C_m(L)$ of commuting $m$-tuples of elements of simple Lie algebra $L$ is often reducible. Explicitely, we prove it is reducible for all simple Lie algebra $L$ not isomorphic to $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ and…

In this article, we develop a further adaptation of the method of Skjelbred-Sund to construct central extensions of axial algebras. We use our method to prove that all axial central extensions (with respect to a maximal set of axes) of…

Trialitarian triples are triples of central simple algebras of degree 8 with orthogonal involution that provide a convenient structure for the representation of trialitarian algebraic groups as automorphism groups. This paper explicitly…

Let G be an arithmetic lattice in a semisimple algebraic group over a number field. We show that if G has the congruence subgroup property, then the number of n-dimensional irreducible representations of G grows like n^a, where a is a…

In this article we present some probably unexpected (in our opinion) properties of representations of Yang-Mills algebras. We first show that any free Lie algebra with m generators is a quotient of the Yang-Mills algebra ym(n) on n…

Let A be a central simple algebra with involution sigma of first or second kind. Let v be a valuation on the sigma-fixed part F of Z(A). A sigma-special v-gauge g on A is a kind of value function on A extending v on F, such that g(sigma(x)…

We associate to every central simple algebra with involution of orthogonal type in characteristic two a totally singular quadratic form which reflects certain anisotropy properties of the involution. It is shown that this quadratic form can…

Consider a random recusive tree with n vertices. We show that the number of vertices with even depth is asymptotically normal as n tends to infinty. The same is true for the number of vertices of depth divisible by m for m=3, 4 or 5; in all…

In the present paper we set up a connection between the indices of the Tits algebras of a simple linear algebraic group $G$ and the degree one parameters of its motivic $J$-invariant. Our main technical tool are the second Chern class map…

This paper describes the centers of the universal enveloping algebras and the invariant rings of the standard filiform Lie algebras over fields of characteristic zero and also over large enough prime characteristic. We determine explicit…

Many properties of simple finite dimensional gl(m|n)-modules may be better understood by assigning weight diagrams to the highest weights with respect to a given base of simple roots. In this paper we consider bases that are compatible with…

Let A be a central simple algebra central over a number field K whose ring of integers is R. An outlier is an element r of R so that: r is a reduced norm of an element of A, but not the norm of an algebraic integer in A. We study properties…

In this paper, for n a positve integer, we compute the number of n degree representations for a dihedral group G of order 2m, m \geq 3 and the dimensions of the corresponding spaces of G invariant bilinear forms over a complex field C. We…

In this note, we introduce a new concept of a {\it generalized algebraic rational identity} to investigate the structure of division rings. The main theorem asserts that if a non-central subnormal subgroup $N$ of the multiplicative group…

Let K be any field and G be a finite group. We will prove that, if K is any field, p an odd prime number, and G is a non-abelian group of exponent p with |G|=p^3 or p^4 satisfying [K(\zeta_p):K] <= 2, then K(G) is rational over K. We will…

We study actions of linear algebraic groups on central simple algebras using algebro-geometric techniques. Suppose an algebraic group G acts on a central simple algebra A of degree n. We are interested in questions of the following type:…

Invariant notions of a class of Segre varieties $\Segrem(2)$ of PG(2^m - 1, 2) that are direct products of $m$ copies of PG(1, 2), $m$ being any positive integer, are established and studied. We first demonstrate that there exists a…
