The centrepiece of this paper is a normal form for primitive elements which facilitates the use of induction arguments to prove properties of primitive elements. The normal form arises from an elementary algorithm for constructing a…
We propose a simple approach to formal deformations of associative algebras. It exploits the machinery of multiplicative coresolutions of an associative algebra A in the category of A-bimodules. Specifically, we show that certain…
We study the algebraic structure of the Poisson algebra P(O) of polynomials on a coadjoint orbit O of a semisimple Lie algebra. We prove that P(O) splits into a direct sum of its center and its derived ideal. We also show that P(O) is…
In his 1934 paper, G.\ Birkhoff poses the problem of classifying pairs $(G,U)$ where $G$ is an abelian group and $U\subset G$ a subgroup, up to automorphisms of $G$. In general, Birkhoff's Problem is not considered feasible. In this note,…
We construct an algebra of pseudodifferential operators on each groupoid in a class that generalizes differentiable groupoids to allow manifolds with corners. We show that this construction encompasses many examples. The subalgebra of…
Let $G$ denotes a finite abelian group of order $n$ and Davenport constant $D$, and put $m= n+D-1$. Let $x=(x_1, ..., x_m)\in G^m$ be a sequence with a maximal repetition $\ell$ attained by $x_m$ and put $r=\min(D,\ell)$. Let $w=(w_1, ...,…
A primitive root modulo an integer $n$ is the generator of the multiplicative group of integers modulo $n$. Gauss proved that for any prime number $p$ greater than $3$, the sum of its primitive roots is congruent to $1$ modulo $p$ while its…
This paper introduces the cyclic subfactors, generalizing the cyclic groups as the subfactors generalize the groups, and generalizing the natural numbers as the maximal subfactors generalize the prime numbers. On one hand, a theorem of O.…
We prove a structure theorem for Yetter-Drinfel'd Hopf algebras over groups of prime order that are nontrivial, cocommutative, and cosemisimple: Under certain assumptions on the base field, these algebras can be decomposed into a tensor…
For a bivariate $P(x,y) \in \mathbb{R}[x,y]\setminus (\mathbb{R}[x] \cup \mathbb{R}[y])$, our first result shows that for all finite $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}$, $|P(A,A)|\geq \alpha|A|^{5/4}$ with $\alpha =\alpha(\mathrm{deg} P) \in…
We present the most general polynomial Lie algebra generated by a second order integral of motion and one of order M, construct the Casimir operator, and show how the Jacobi identity provides the existence of a realization in terms of…
We consider an amalgam of groups constructed from fusion systems for different odd primes p and q. This amalgam contains a self-normalizing cyclic subgroup of order pq and isolated elements of order p and q.
Fix a natural $\alpha$. Let $n\ge \alpha$ be an integer. Consider the symmetric group $S_{\alpha+n}$ and its subgroup $S_n$. We consider the group algebra of $S_{\alpha+n}$ and its subalgebra $\mathbb{O}[\alpha;n]$ consisting of…
If $G$ is a countable, discrete group generated by two finite subgroups $H$ and $K$ and $P$ is a II$_1$ factor with an outer G-action, one can construct the group-type subfactor $P^H \subset P \rtimes K$ introduced in \cite{BH}. This…
The zeta and Moebius transforms over the subset lattice of $n$ elements and the so-called subset convolution are examples of unary and binary operations on set functions. While their direct computation requires $O(3^n)$ arithmetic…
The theory of $k$-regular graphs is closely related to group theory. Every $k$-regular, bipartite graph is a Schreier graph with respect to some group $G$, a set of generators $S$ (depending only on $k$) and a subgroup $H$. The goal of this…
In this paper, we prove that the algebra of an \'etale groupoid with totally disconnected unit space has a simple algebra over a field if and only if the groupoid is minimal and effective and the only function of the algebra that vanishes…
We consider a generalization of representations of quivers that can be derived from the ordinary representations of quivers by considering a product of arbitrary classical groups instead of a product of the general linear groups and by…
We define two different simplicial complexes, the common divisor simplicial complex and the prime divisor simplicial complex, from a set of integers, and explore their similarities. We will define a map between the two simplicial complexes,…
In this paper we give a new foundational, categorical formulation for operations and relations and objects parameterizing them. This generalizes and unifies the theory of operads and all their cousins including but not limited to PROPs,…
