Let G be a simple complex algebraic group and let K be a reductive subgroup of G such that the coordinate ring of G/K is a multiplicity free G-module. We consider the G-algebra structure of C[G/K], and study the decomposition into…
We continue our study of the Noether-Lefschetz loci in toric varieties and investigate deformation of pairs (V,X) where V is a complete intersection subvariety and X a quasi-smooth hypersurface in a odd dimensional simplicial projective…
We study good (i.e., semisimple) reductions of semisimple rigid tensor categories modulo primes. A prime p is called good for a semisimple rigid tensor category C if such a reduction exists (otherwise, it is called bad). It is clear that a…
Kostant asked the following question: Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a simple Lie algebra over the complex numbers. Let $\lambda$ be a dominant integral weight. Then, $V(\lambda)$ is a component of $ V(\rho)\otimes V(\rho)$ if and only if $\lambda…
The class of cographs is one of the most well-known graph classes, which is also known to be equivalent to the class of $P_4$-free graphs. We show that Mader's conjecture is true if we restrict ourselves to cographs, that is, for any tree…
The rank rk(G) of a profinite group G is the supremum of d(H), where H ranges over all closed subgroups of G and d(H) denotes the minimal cardinality of a topological generating set for H. A compact topological group G admits the structure…
Let $K \subset {\mathbb R}^n$ be a compact definable set in an o-minimal structure over $\mathbb R$, e.g., a semi-algebraic or a subanalytic set. A definable family $\{ S_\delta|\> 0< \delta \in {\mathbb R} \}$ of compact subsets of $K$, is…
The computation of the cohomology for finite groups of Lie type in the describing characteristic is a challenging and difficult problem. In earlier work, the authors constructed an induction functor which takes modules over the finite group…
We prove a version of the Wilson conjecture for $\omega$-categorical $3$-Engel Lie algebras over a field of characteristic $5$: every $\omega$-categorical Lie algebra over $\mathbb{F}_5$ which satisfies the identity $[x,y^3] = 0$ is…
We consider the problem of decomposing tensor powers of the fundamental level 1 highest weight representation $V$ of the affine Kac-Moody algebra $\g(E_9)$. We describe an elementary algorithm for determining the decomposition of the…
Recently is has been proved that if $\sigma\in GL_n(R)$ where $R$ is an commutative ring and $n\geq 3$, then each of the elementary transvections $t_{kl}(\sigma_{ij})~(i\neq j,k\neq l)$ is a product of eight $E_n(R)$-conjugates of $\sigma$…
Let $G$ be a finite group. We show that the order of the subgroup generated by coprime $\gamma_k$-commutators (respectively $\delta_k$-commutators) is bounded in terms of the size of the set of coprime $\gamma_k$-commutators (respectively…
We introduce the notions of quasi-Laurent and Laurent families of simple modules over quiver Hecke algebras of arbitrary symmetrizable types. We prove that such a family plays a similar role of a cluster in the quantum cluster algebra…
The long standing Lech's conjecture in commutative algebra states that for a flat local extension $(R,\mathfrak{m})\to (S,\mathfrak{n})$ of Noetherian local rings, we have an inequality on the Hilbert--Samuel multiplicities: $e(R)\leq…
Let G be a reductive complex algebraic group and V a finite-dimensional G-module. From elements of the invariant algebra C[V]^G we obtain by polarization elements of C[kV]^G, where k\geq 1 and kV denotes the direct sum of k copies of V. For…
We are interested in identities between Littlewood-Richardson coefficients, and hence in comparing different tensor product decompositions of the irreducible modules of the linear group GL n (C). A family of partitions-called…
We solve the long standing problem of classification of standard compact Clifford-Klein forms of homogeneous spaces of simple non-compact real Lie groups under the extra assumption that $G$, $H$, $L$ are simple and absolutely simple. Then…
Let $U$ be a Banach Lie group and $G\le U$ a compact subgroup. We show that closed Lie subgroups of $U$ contained in sufficiently small neighborhoods $V\supseteq G$ are compact, and conjugate to subgroups of $G$ by elements close to $1\in…
We discuss many surprising implications of a positive answer to a question raised in some cases by Greenberg in the $`70$s and more generally by Shalom in the early $2000$s. We refer to this positive answer as the Greenberg-Shalom…
Hans Zassenhaus conjectured that every torsion unit of the integral group ring of a finite group $G$ is conjugate within the rational group algebra to an element of the form $\pm g$ with $g\in G$. This conjecture has been disproved recently…
