Let $F$ be a field of characteristic zero and let $E$ be the Grassmann algebra of an infinite dimensional $F$-vector space $L$. In this paper we study the superalgebra structures (that is the $\mathbb{Z}_{2}$-gradings) that the algebra $E$…
The Jacobian conjecture in dimension $n$ asserts that any polynomial endomorphism of $n$-dimensional affine space over a field of zero characteristic, with the Jacobian equal 1, is invertible. The Dixmier conjecture in rank $n$ asserts that…
Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a field of characteristic different from $2$ and $3$, and let $V$ be a vector space of dimension $2$ over $\mathbb{F}$. The generic classification of homogeneous quadratic maps $f\colon V\to V$ under the action of the…
We reduce CR-structures on smooth elliptic and hyperbolic manifolds of CR-codimension 2 to parallelisms thus solving the problem of global equivalence for such manifolds. The parallelism that we construct is defined on a sequence of two…
The self-similarity hypothesis claims that in classical general relativity, spherically symmetric solutions may naturally evolve to a self-similar form in certain circumstances. In this context, the validity of the corresponding hypothesis…
Assume that $\phi_1$ and $\phi_2$ are automorphisms of the non-commutative disc algebra $\fA_n$, $n \geq 2$. We show that the semicrossed products $\fA_n \times_{\phi_1} \bZ^+$ and $\fA_n \times_{\phi_2} \bZ^+$ are isomorphic as algebras if…
We give a direct proof of a cancellation formula raised in [7] on the level of differential forms. We also obtain more cancellation formulas for even dimensional Riemannian manifolds with a complex line bundle involved. Relations among…
We establish an extension of Viennot's geometric (shadow line) construction to the setting of oscillating tableaux. We then use this to give a new proof of the Type $C$ analogue of Schensted's theorem on longest decreasing subsequences.…
If the bimodule of 1-forms of a differential calculus over an associative algebra is the direct sum of 1-dimensional bimodules, a relation with automorphisms of the algebra shows up. This happens for some familiar quantum space calculi.
We continue the investigation started in [Sh:1215] about the relation between the Keilser-Shelah isomorphism theorem and the continuum hypothesis. In particular, we show it is consistent that the continuum hypothesis fails and for any given…
We prove that any Bernstein algebra $(A, \omega)$ is isomorphic to a semidirect product $V \ltimes_{(\cdot, \, \Omega)} \, k$ associated to a commutative algebra $(V, \cdot)$ such that $(x^2)^2 = 0$, for all $x\in A$ and an idempotent…
Conditions, related to the so-called bending problem are considered for hypersurfaces of a pseudo-Euclidean space. Corresponding theorems are proved.
We consider the equivalence problem of four-dimensional semi-Riemannian metrics with the $2$-dimensional Abelian Killing algebra. In the generic case we determine a semi-invariant frame and a fundamental set of first-order scalar…
Given a perfect field of exponential characteristic $e$ and a functor $f:\mathcal A\to\mathcal B$ between symmetric monoidal strict $V$-categories of correspondences satisfying the cancellation property such that the induced morphisms of…
We construct all possible noncommutative deformations of a Kleinian singularity ${\mathbb C}^2/\Gamma$ of type $D_n$ in terms of generators and relations, and solve the problem of when two deformations are isomorphic. We prove that all…
We prove that the hyperplanes parallel to ${\bf e}_{n+1}$ are the unique examples of translating solitons $C^1-$asymptotic to two half-hyperplanes outside a vertical cylinder in $\R^{n+1}$.
We construct combinatorial analogs of 2d higher topological quantum field theories. We consider triangulations as vertices of a certain CW complex $\Xi$. In the "flip theory," cells of $\Xi_\mathrm{flip}$ correspond to polygonal…
Belov-Kanel and Kontsevich conjectured that the group of automorphisms of the n'th Weyl algebra and the group of polynomial symplectomorphisms of C^2 are canonically isomorphic. We discuss how this conjecture can be approached by means of…
The Hamiltonian structure of spacetimes with two commuting Killing vector fields is analyzed for the purpose of addressing the various problems of time that arise in canonical gravity. Two specific models are considered: (i) cylindrically…
In this note we give a positive answer to a question asked by Y. Colin de Verdi\`ere concerning the converse of the following theorem, due to A. N. Varchenko: two germs of volume forms are equivalent with respect to diffeomorphisms…
