We show that the reduction mod p of an orthogonal linear representation is orthogonal, and we generalize this fact to representations of algebras with involution.The proofs make an essential use of the notion of " middle lattices ".

We prove that if an $n\times n$ matrix defined over ${\mathbb Q}_p$ (or more generally an arbitrary complete, discretely-valued, non-Archimedean field) satisfies a certain congruence property, then it has a strictly maximal eigenvalue in…

We prove a duality theorem for simplicial complexes arising from a combinatorial construction we define, which applies to the squarefree monomial complexes for Veronese ideals of projective spaces and weighted projective spaces. Our theorem…

We determine all arithmetic Y-Frieze patterns of width $3$ and $4$. As a consequence, for $n=3,4$, we verify the surjectivity of a map $p_n$ which corresponds arithmetic Y-Frieze patterns of width $n$ to Coxeter's Frieze patterns.

Let $R=k[x_1,..., x_n]$ be a polynomial ring over a field $k$ of characteristic $p>0,$ and let $I=(f_1,...,f_s)$ be an ideal of $R.$ We prove that every associated prime $P$ of $H^i_I(R)$ satisfies $\text{dim}R/P\geqslant…

For any prime $p$, let $y(p)$ denote the smallest integer $y$ such that every reduced residue class $\pmod p$ is represented by the product of some subset of $\{1,\dots,y\}$. It is easy to see that $y(p)$ is at least as large as the…

We prove explicitly that the general D=3, N=4 Chern-Simons-matter (CSM) theory has a complete OSp(4|4) superconformal symmetry, and construct the corresponding conserved currents. We re-derive the OSp(5|4) superconformal currents in the…

Let $N\ge 4$. We show that, if $x_1,\dots,x_N$ and $y_1,\dots,y_N$ are $N$-tuples of strictly positive numbers whose arithmetic, geometric and harmonic means agree, then \[ \max_j x_j <(N-2)\max_j y_j \quad\text{and}\quad \min_j x_j…

We derive explicitly the structural properties of the $p$-adic special orthogonal groups in dimension three, for all primes $p$, and, along the way, the two-dimensional case. In particular, starting from the unique definite quadratic form…

We describe an embedding of the Poincare Lie algebra into an extension of the Lie field of SO(2,3) (the anti-de Sitter group). We also describe higher dimensional analogs of this embedding, which connect SO(p,q) groups to their associated…

A beautiful result of Br\"ocker and Scheiderer on the stability index of basic closed semi-algebraic sets implies, as a very special case, that every $d$-dimensional polyhedron admits a representation as the set of solutions of at most…

We prove several results which imply the following consequences. For any $\varepsilon>0$ and any sufficiently large prime $p$, if $\cI_1,\ldots, \cI_{13}$ are intervals of cardinalities $|\cI_j|>p^{1/4+\varepsilon}$ and $abc\not\equiv…

Let v(n) denote the number of compositions (ordered partitions) of a positive integer n into powers of 2. It appears that the function v(n) satisfies many congruences modulo 2^N. For example, for every integer B there exists (as k tends to…

In this paper we prove that for any $p\in[2,\infty)$ the $\ell_p^n$ unit ball, $B_p^n$, satisfies the square negative correlation property with respect to every orthonormal basis, while we show it is not always the case for $1\le p\le 2$.…

Bosse et al. conjectured that for every natural number $d \ge 2$ and every $d$-dimensional polytope $P$ in $\real^d$ there exist $d$ polynomials $p_0(x),...,p_{d-1}(x)$ satisfying $P=\{x \in \mathbb{R}^d : p_0(x) \ge 0, >..., p_{d-1}(x) \ge…

The syzygies of the d-th Veronese embedding of $\mathbb P(V)$ are functors of the complex vector space V. From a certain perspective, we show that as d grows, their Schur functor decomposition is very rich whenever they are not zero. This…

For some numerical semigroup rings of small embedding dimension, namely those of embedding dimension 3, and symmetric or pseudosymmetric of embedding dimension 4, presentations has been determined in the literature. We extend these results…

An abelian extension of the special orthogonal Lie algebra $D_n$ is a nonsemisimple Lie algebra $D_n \inplus V$, where $V$ is a finite-dimensional representation of $D_n$, with the understanding that $[V,V]=0$. We determine all abelian…

Using the $3D$ mirror symmetry we construct a system of polynomials $T_s(z)$ with integral coefficients which solve the quantum differential equitation of $X=T^{*} Gr(k,n)$ modulo $p^s$, where $p$ is a prime number. We show that the…

We discuss closed symplectic 4-manifolds which admit full symplectic packings by $N$ equal balls for large $N$'s. We give a homological criterion for recognizing such manifolds. As a corollary we prove that ${\Bbb C}P^2$ can be fully packed…
