In this paper, the biderivations without the skew-symmetric condition of the twisted Heisenberg-Virasoro algebra are presented. We find some non-inner and non-skew-symmetric biderivations. As applications, the characterizations of the forms…

We first determine the automorphism group of the twisted Heisenberg-Virasoro vertex operator algebra $V_{\mathcal{L}}(\ell_{123},0)$.Then, for any integer $t>1$, we introduce a new Lie algebra $\mathcal{L}_{t}$, and show that…

S. Alesker has shown that if $G$ is a compact subgroup of O(n) acting transitively on the unit sphere $S^{n-1}$ then the vector space $Val^G$ of continuous, translation-invariant, $G$-invariant convex valuations on $R^n$ has the structure…

Let G be a Coxeter group of type A_n, B_n, D_n or I_2(N), or a complex reflection group of type G(de,e,n). Let V be its standard representation and let k be an integer greater than 2. Then G acts on S(V)^{\otimes k}. We show that the…

Given a vertex algebra $\mathcal{V}$ and a subalgebra $\mathcal{A}\subset \mathcal{V}$, the commutant $\text{Com}(\mathcal{A},\mathcal{V})$ is the subalgebra of $\mathcal{V}$ which commutes with all elements of $\mathcal{A}$. This…

The present paper is another step toward the classification of $\Z\times\Z$-graded Lie algebras: we classify $\Z\times\Z$-graded Lie algebras $A=\oplus_{i,j\in\Z}A_{i,j}$ over a field $F$ of characteristic 0 with dim $A_{i,j}\le1$ for…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group and let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. We consider associative unital algebras $A$ over $K$ graded by $G$, that is $A=\oplus_{g\in G} A_g$, where the vector subspaces $A_g$…

Let $A$ be a nondegenerate dimer (or ghor) algebra on a torus, and let $Z$ be its center. Using cyclic contractions, we show the following are equivalent: $A$ is noetherian; $Z$ is noetherian; $A$ is a noncommutative crepant resolution;…
