The ring of classic Witt vectors is a fundamental object in mixed characteristic commutative algebra which has many applications in number theory. There is a significant generalization due to Dress and Siebeneicher which for any profinite…
In this paper we investigate some properties of the Burnside ring of a profinite group as defined in \cite{ds}. We introduce the notion of the crossed Burnside ring of a profinite FC-group, and generalise some results from finite to…
For every profinite group $G$, we construct two covariant functors $\Delta_G$ and ${\bf {\mathcal {AP}}}_G$ from the category of commutative rings with identity to itself, and show that indeed they are equivalent to the functor $W_G$…
This paper is the survey of some of our results related to $q$-deformations of the Fock spaces and related to $q$-convolutions for probability measures on the real line $\mathbb{R}$. The main idea is done by the combinatorics of moments of…
We discuss some aspects of the deformed W-algebras W_{q,t}[g]. In particular, we derive an explicit formula for the Kac determinant, and discuss the center when t^2 is a primitive k-th root of unity. The relation of the structure of…
This work is a first step towards a theory of "$q$-deformed complex numbers". Assuming the invariance of the $q$-deformation under the action of the modular group I prove the existence and uniqueness of the operator of translations by~$i$…
We introduce and study the notion of equivariant $\mathbb{Q}$-sliceness for strongly invertible knots. On the constructive side, we prove that every Klein amphichiral knot, which is a strongly invertible knot admitting a compatible negative…
We investigate deformations of skew group algebras that arise from a finite cyclic group acting on a polynomial ring in positive characteristic, where characteristic divides the order of the group. We allow deformations which deform both…
We determine the universal deformation over reduced base rings of the Witt ring scheme enhanced by a Frobenius lift and Verschiebung. It agrees with a q-deformation earlier introduced by the second author, for which we also give a simpler…
We define a $q$-deformation of the classical ring of integer-valued polynomials which we call the ring of quantum integer-valued polynomials. We show that this ring has a remarkable combinatorial structure and enjoys many positivity…
The concept of $q$-deformation, or ``$q$-analogue'' arises in many areas of mathematics. In algebra and representation theory, it is the origin of quantum groups; $q$-deformations are important for knot invariants, combinatorial…
Let $s$ be even and $q=p^s$. We show that the ring $W(\mathbb{F}_{q})[\![X]\!]/(X^2-pX)$ is a quotient of the universal deformation ring of a representation of a finite group. This amounts to giving an example of a finite group and its…
We propose and study a variation of the classical isomorphism problem for group rings in the context of projective representations. We formulate several weaker conditions following from our notion and give all logical connections between…
We introduce and study action of quantum groups on skew polynomial rings and related rings of quotients. This leads to a ``q-deformation'' of the Gel'fand-Kirillov conjecture which we partially prove. We propose a construction of…
Solid abelian groups, as introduced by Dustin Clausen and Peter Scholze, form a subcategory of all condensed abelian groups satisfying some ''completeness'' conditions and having favourable categorical properties. Given a profinite ring…
We establish a link between the new theory of $q$-deformed rational numbers and the classical Burau representation of the braid group $\mathrm{B}_3$. We apply this link to the open problem of classification of faithful complex…
We describe new $q$-deformations of the 3-dimensional Heisenberg algebra, the simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ and the Witt algebra. They are constructed through a realization as differential operators. These operators are related to…
We show that every complete noetherian local commutative ring R with residue field k can be realized as a universal deformation ring of a continuous linear representation of a profinite group. More specifically, R is the universal…
Let $\mathcal{W}$ be a complete local commutative Noetherian ring with residue field $k$ of positive characteristic $p$. We study the inverse problem for the versal deformation rings $R_{\mathcal{W}}(\Gamma,V)$ relative to $\mathcal{W}$ of…
We give an introduction to the deformation theory of linear representations of profinite groups which Mazur initiated in the 1980's. We then consider the case of representations of finite groups. We show how Brauer's generalized…
