Bloch's theorem was a major milestone that established the principle of bandgaps in crystals. Although it was once believed that bandgaps could form only under conditions of periodicity and long-range correlations for Bloch's theorem, this…

Some varieties of groupoids and quasigroups generated by linear-bivariate polynomials $P(x,y)=a+bx+cy$ over the ring $\mathbb{Z}_n$ are studied. Necessary and sufficient conditions for such groupoids and quasigroups to obey identities which…

In this note, we introduce a natural analogue of Steinberg's cross-section in the loop group of an unramified reductive group $\mathbf G$. We show this loop Steinberg's cross-section provides a simple geometric model for the poset…

We describe the structure of the algebraic group of automorphisms of all simple finite dimensional Lie superalgebras. Using this and \'etale cohomology considerations, we list all different isomorphism classes of the corresponding twisted…

We investigate supergroups with Grassmann parameters replaced by odd Clifford parameters. The connection with non-anticommutative supersymmetry is discussed. A Berezin-like calculus for odd Clifford variables is introduced. Fermionic…

A first-order theory has the Schroder-Bernstein property if any two of its models that are elementarily bi-embeddable are isomorphic. We prove that if G is an abelian group, then the follwing are equivalent: 1. Th(G, +) has the…

Starting with a $\mathbb{C}^*$-valued cocycle on the global quotient orbifold $X // G$, we apply transgression techniques for 2-gerbes, as developed by Lupercio and Uribe, to construct a gerbe on the orbifold loop space $\mathcal{L}(X//G)$.…

Consider the functor describing deformations of a representation of the fundamental group of a variety X. This paper is chiefly concerned with establishing an analogue in finite characteristic of a result proved by Goldman and Millson for…

Let A be an abelian variety over a number field k. We show that weak approximation holds in the Weil-Ch\^atelet group of A/k but that it may fail when one restricts to the n-torsion subgroup. This failure is however relatively mild; we show…

We consider bound states of D-branes wrapped around cycles with non-trivial fundamental groups of finite order. We find a new mechanism for binding D-branes by turning on flat discrete abelian and non-abelian gauge fields on their…

Suppose $X$ is a torsor under an abelian variety $A$ over a number field. We show that any adelic point of $X$ that is orthogonal to the algebraic Brauer group of $X$ is orthogonal to the whole Brauer group of $X$. We also show that if…

We develop a systematic functional-analytic framework for Hom--Lie Banach algebras, introducing bounded $\alpha$-twisted derivations and almost periodic elements. Under natural continuity and compactness assumptions, we establish a complete…

Similarly to how the classical group ring isomorphism problem asks, for a commutative ring $R$, which information about a finite group $G$ is encoded in the group ring $RG$, the twisted group ring isomorphism problem asks which information…

We prove a conjecture by Lusztig, which describes the tensor categories of perverse sheaves on affine flag manifolds, with tensor structure provided by truncated convolution, in terms of the Langlands dual group. We also give a geometric…

We establish the Thom isomorphism in twisted K-theory for any real vector bundle and develop the push-forward map in twisted K-theory for any differentiable proper map $f: X\to Y$ (not necessarily K-oriented). The push-forward map…

In this paper we revisit the proof of the Alt-Caffarelli-Friedman monotonicity formula. Then, in the framework of the Heisenberg group, we discuss the existence of an analogous monotonicity formula introducing a necessary condition for its…

We show an analogue of a theorem of An, Ghosh, Guan, and Ly on weighted badly approximable vectors for totally imaginary number fields. We show that for $G=\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{C})\times\dots\times\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{C})$ and $\Gamma<G$…

Starting with a finite-dimensional complex Lie algebra, we extend scalars using suitable commutative topological algebras. We study Birkhoff decompositions for the corresponding loop groups. Some results remain valid for loop groups with…

In solid state physics, it is an unsaid (tacit) assumption that the Bloch theorem is applicable to a crystal lattice even if it is of the macroscopic dimensions, provided periodicity is maintained. However, in a realistic situation,…

In the first part we present the Weyl algebra and our results concerning its finite-dimensional Lie subalgebras. The second part is devoted to a more exotic algebraic structure, the Lie algebra of order 3. We set the basis of a theory of…
