In this paper, we study a natural class of groups that act as affine transformations of $\mathbb T^N$. We investigate whether these solvable, "abelian-by-cyclic," groups can act smoothly and nonaffinely on $\mathbb T^N$ while remaining…
The Danielewski hypersurfaces are the hypersurfaces $X_{Q,n}$ in $\mathbb{C}^3$ defined by an equation of the form $x^ny=Q(x,z)$ where $n\geq1$ and $Q(x,z)$ is a polynomial such that $Q(0,z)$ is of degree at least two. They were studied by…
Let $G$ be a locally compact abelian group. By modifying a theorem of Pedersen, it follows that actions of $G$ on $C^*$-algebras $A$ and $B$ are outer conjugate if and only if there is an isomorphism of the crossed products that is…
Let $k$ be a field and let $A$ be a finitely generated $k$-algebra. The algebra $A$ is said to be cancellative if whenever $B$ is another $k$-algebra with the property that $A[x]\cong B[x]$ then we necessarily have $A\cong B$. An important…
Let $Y$ be an irreducible non-singular affine $G$-variety with a $2$-large action. We show that the Hamiltonian reduction $T^*Y/\!\!/\!\!/G$ is a symplectic variety with terminal singularities, isomorphic to the affine closure of…
The smooth action of a compact Lie group on a compact manifold can be resolved to an iterated space, as made explicit by Pierre Albin and the second author. On the resolution the lifted action has fixed isotropy type corresponding to the…
Let $\mathbb F$ be an algebraically closed field, $G$ be an abelian group, and let $A$ and $B$ be arbitrary finite-dimensional $G$-graded simple algebras over $\mathbb F$. We prove that $A$ and $B$ are isomorphic if, and only if, they…
Given an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic zero, we consider in this paper $k$-algebras of the form $$A_{c,q}=k[x,y,z]/\big(c(x)z-q(x,y)\big),$$ where $c(x)\in k[x]$ is a polynomial of degree at least two and $q(x,y)\in…
Any finite group can be encoded as the automorphism group of an unlabeled simple graph. Recently Hartke, Kolb, Nishikawa, and Stolee (2010) demonstrated a construction that allows any ordered pair of finite groups to be represented as the…
The group isomorphism problem asks whether two finite groups given by their Cayley tables are isomorphic or not. Although there are polynomial-time algorithms for some specific group classes, the best known algorithm for testing isomorphism…
In this paper, we discuss the problem of whether the difference $[X]-[Y]$ of the classes of a Fourier--Mukai pair $(X, Y)$ of smooth projective varieties in the Grothendieck ring of varieties is annihilated by some power of the class…
The action of a Weyl group on the associated weight lattice induces an additive action on the symmetric algebra and a multiplicative action on the group algebra of the lattice. We show that the coinvariant space of the multiplicative action…
This is a continuation of arXiv: 2408.03012. We answer affirmatively Question 5.10 posed in the previous article. More precisely, let $(X, \omega)$ be a conical symplectic variety of dimension $2n$ with $wt(\omega) = 2$, which has a…
We discuss the isomorphism problem of projective schemes; given two projective schemes, can we algorithmically decide whether they are isomorphic? We give affirmative answers in the case of one-dimensional projective schemes, the case of…
We introduce a Milnor type $K$-group associated to commutative algebraic groups over a perfect field. It is an additive variant of Somekawa's $K$-group. We show that the $K$-group associated to the additive group and $q$ multiplicative…
Double coverings of the orthogonal groups of the real and complex spaces are considered. The relation between discrete transformations of these spaces and fundamental automorphisms of Clifford algebras is established, where an isomorphism…
The themes of cancellation, internal cancellation, substitution have led to a lot of interesting research in the theory of modules over commutative and noncommutative rings. In this paper, we introduce and study cancellation problem in the…
The choice of an isomorphism, a duality, between a finite abelian group $A$ and its character group allows one to define dual codes of additive codes over $A$. Properties of dualities and dual codes are studied, continuing work of Delsarte…
We introduce a new equivalence relation, denoted by $A.Q.E.D.$ (= Algebraic-Quasi-\'Etale- Deformation) for complete algebraic varieties with canonical singularities: it is generated by birational equivalence, by flat algebraic…
Let G be a connected reductive group defined over an algebraically closed ground field of characteristic p, let B be a Borel subgroup of G, and let X be a G-variety. The first named author has shown that for p = 0 there is a natural action…
