We study a novel $n(n+1)/2$-dimensional non-semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}_n$, a generalisation of both $\mathfrak{sl}_2(\mathbb{K})$ and the two-photon Lie algebra $\mathfrak{h}_6$. We investigate its properties, including its…

Let $SL_{2}(F_{q})$ be the special linear group over a finite field $F_{q}$, $V$ be the 2-dimensional natural representation of $SL_{2}(F_{q})$ and $V^{\ast}$ be the dual representation. We denote by $F_{q}[V\oplus…

Let G be a subgroup of GL(V), where V is a finite dimensional vector space over a finite field of characteristic p >0. If det(g-1) = 0 for all g \in G then we call G a fixed-point subgroup of GL(V). Motivated in parallel by questions in…

The dissertation focuses on decomposing a group algebra $kG$ over a field of positive characteristic into a direct sum of projective indecomposable modules. Such a decomposition is obtained together with the Artin--Wedderburn Theorem. The…

Let G be a p-adic reductive group, and R an algebraically closed field. Let us consider a smooth representation of G on an R-vector space V. Fix an open compact subgroup K of G and a smooth irreducible representation of K on a…

We show that a $PL_{\infty}$-algebra $V$ can be described by a nilpotent coderivation of degree $-1$ on coalgebra $P^*V$. Based on this result, we can generalise the result of T. Lada and show that every $A_{\infty}$-algebra carries a…

Let $n\geq 2$ be an integer, $S_n$ be the Lie algebra of vector fields on $\mathbb{C}^n$ with zero divergence, and $D_n$ be the Weyl algebra over the polynomial algebra $A_n=\mathbb{C}[t_1,t_2,\cdots,t_n]$. In this paper, we study the…

A complex hypersurface D in complex affine n-space C^n is a linear free divisor (LFD) if its module of logarithmic vector fields has a global basis of linear vector fields. We classify all LFDs for n at most 4. Analogous to Grothendieck's…

We study the structure of the indecomposable direct summands of tensor products of two restricted simple $SL_3(K)$-modules, where $K$ is an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p \geq 5$. We give a characteristic-free algorithm for…

We study certain Z_2-graded, finite-dimensional polynomial algebras of degree 2 which are a special class of deformations of Lie superalgebras, which we call quadratic Lie superalgebras. Starting from the formal definition, we discuss the…

Let $KX_d$ be a vector space with basis $X_d=\{x_1,\ldots,x_d\}$ over a field $K$ of characteristic 0. One of the main topics of classical invariant theory is the study of the algebra of invariants $K[X_d]^{SL_2(K)}$, where $KX_d$ is a…

Given a hyperplane arrangement in a complex vector space of dimension n, there is a natural associated arrangement of codimension k subspaces in a complex vector space of dimension k*n. Topological invariants of the complement of this…

We study surjective homomorphisms f:\prod_I A_i\to B of not-necessarily-associative algebras over a commutative ring k, for I a generally infinite set; especially when k is a field and B is countable-dimensional over k. Our results have the…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a finite dimensional complex Lie algebra and let $A$ be a finite dimensional complex, associative and commutative algebra with unit. We describe the structure of the derivation Lie algebra of the current Lie algebra…

For a smooth irreducible affine algebraic variety we study a class of gauge modules admitting compatible actions of both the algebra $A$ of functions and the Lie algebra $\mathcal{V}$ of vector fields on the variety. We prove that a gauge…

We study the category $\mathcal{M}_{\mathfrak{sl}(m|1)}(k|k)$ of $\mathcal U(\mathfrak h)\text{-free}$ $\mathcal U(\mathfrak{sl}(m|1))$-modules of rank $k$ in each parity (rank $(k|k)$), where $k\in\mathbb{Z}_{\geq1}$. We construct an…

We study the category $\mathcal{F}_n$ of finite-dimensional integrable representations of the periplectic Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{p}(n)$. We define an action of the Temperley--Lieb algebra with infinitely many generators and defining…

If a Lie algebra structures $\gG$ on a vector space is the sum of a family of mutually compatible Lie algebra structures $\gG_i$, we say that $\gG$ is \emph{simply assembled} from $\gG_s$'s. By repeating this procedure several times one…

Let $R$ be a ring and let $\mathcal C$ be a small class of right $R$-modules which is closed under finite direct sums, direct summands, and isomorphisms. Let $\mathcal V (\mathcal C)$ denote a set of representatives of isomorphism classes…

We call a unital locally convex algebra $A$ a continuous inverse algebra if its unit group $A^\times$ is open and inversion is a continuous map. For any smooth action of a, possibly infinite-dimensional, connected Lie group $G$ on a…
