In this work we investigate the possibility of using the reflection algebra as a source of functional equations. More precisely, we obtain functional relations determining the partition function of the six-vertex model with domain-wall…
This is a detailed survey -- with rigorous and self-contained proofs -- of some of the basics of elementary combinatorics and algebra, including the properties of finite sums, binomial coefficients, permutations and determinants. It is…
Let W be a Weyl group. In my 1984 book a group was attached to any special representation of W using the theory of Springer representations. In this paper we give a new definition of this group which is purely algebraic (no use of geometry…
We prove that there are only finitely many conjugacy classes of arithmetic maximal hyperbolic reflection groups.
This is a survey, intended both for group theorists and model theorists, concerning the structure of pseudofinite groups, that is, infinite models of the first order theory of finite groups. The focus is on concepts from stability theory…
We extend to the context of algebraic groups a classic result on extensions of abstract groups relating the set of isomorphism classes of extensions of $G$ by $H$ with that of extensions of $G$ by the center $Z$ of $H$. The proof should be…
This is the first of a series of papers in which we initiate and develop the theory of reflection monoids, motivated by the theory of reflection groups. The main results identify a number of important inverse semigroups as reflection…
This is an account of the theory of inverse semigroups, assuming only that the reader knows the basics of semigroup theory.
We define reflective numbers and their iterative summations. We provide classification of reflective numbers based on their iterative cyclical limits.
In this paper we study some algebraic properties of the rack structure as well as the representation theory of it, following the ideas given by M. Elhamdadi and E. M. Moutuou in \cite{Elhamdadi}. We establish a correspondence between the…
In this note, we investigate how different fundamental groups of presentations of a fixed algebra $A$ can be. For finitely many finitely presented groups $G_i$, we construct an algebra $A$ such that all $G_i$ appear as fundamental groups of…
This is a brief overview of a few selected chapters on automorphism groups of affine varieties. It includes some open questions.
This paper reproduces the text of a part of the Author's DPhil thesis. It gives a proof of the classification of non-trivial, finite homogeneous geometries of sufficiently high dimension which does not depend on the classification of the…
We consider the natural Lie algebra structure on the (associative) group algebra of a finite group $G$, and show that the Lie subalgebras associated to natural involutive antiautomorphisms of this group algebra are reductive ones. We give a…
Given a reflection $r$ in a Coxeter group $W$ (possibly of infinite rank), we consider the subgroup of $W$ generated by the reflections in $W$ having (-1)-eigenvectors orthogonal to the (-1)-eigenvector of $r$. In this paper, we determine…
We study differential forms invariant under a finite reflection group over a field of arbitrary characteristic. In particular, we prove an analogue of Saito's freeness criterion for invariant differential 1-forms. We also discuss how…
This article is a survey of conjectures and results on reductive algebraic groups having good reduction at a suitable set of discrete valuations of the base field. Until recently, this subject has received relatively little attention, but…
We settle a long-standing problem in the theory of Hecke algebras of complex reflection groups by constructing many (graded) integral cellular bases of these algebras. As applications, we explicitly construct the simple modules of Ariki's…
We give a survey of recent developments in the investigation of the various local-global conjectures for representations of finite groups.
This is a survey. The main subject of this survey is the homotopical or homological nature of certain structures which appear in classical problems about groups, Lie rings and group rings. It is well known that the (generalized) dimension…
