We compute the lower bound estimate for the module category weight of compact exceptional Lie groups by analyzing several Eilenberg--Moore type spectral sequences.
We prove Horrocks' theorem for the odd elementary orthogonal group, which gives a decomposition of an orthogonal matrix with entries from a polynomial ring $R[X]$, over a commutative ring $R$ in which 2 is invertible, as a product of an…
The theory of Lie groups and representations was developed by Lie, Killing, Cartan, Weyl and others to a degree of quasi-perfection, in the years 1870-1930 >. The main topological features of compact simple Lie groups were elucidated in the…
This is the third one in a series of papers classifying the factorizations of almost simple groups with nonsolvable factors. In this paper we deal with orthogonal groups in odd dimension.
We describe bialgebras of lower-indexed algebraic Steenrod operations over the field with p elements, p an odd prime. These go beyond the operations that can act nontrivially in topology, and their duals are closely related to algebras of…
We continue our work on understanding Howe correspondences by using theta representations from p-adic groups to compact groups. We prove some results for unitary theta representations of compact groups with respect to the induction and…
We are presenting proofs of fundamental results related to homotopy idempotents, proofs that are sufficiently simple so that even the author can understand them. The first one is that homotopy idempotents in the category of pointed…
The equivariant Gromov--Hausdorff convergence of metric spaces is studied. Where all isometry groups under consideration are compact Lie, it is shown that an upper bound on the dimension of the group guarantees that the convergence is by…
We show the existence of elements of infinite order in some homotopy groups of the contactomorphism group of overtwisted spheres. It follows in particular that the contactomorphism group of some high dimensional overtwisted spheres is not…
This is the second one in a series of papers classifying the factorizations of almost simple groups with nonsolvable factors. In this paper we deal with almost simple unitary groups.
Let p be an odd prime number. We describe the Whitehead group of all extra-special and almost extra-special p-groups. For this we compute, for any finite p-group P , the subgroup Cl\_1 (ZP) of SK\_1 (ZP), in terms of a genetic basis of P.…
We study $n$-vertex $d$-dimensional polytopes with at most one nonsimplex facet with, say, $d+s$ vertices, called {\it almost simplicial polytopes}. We provide tight lower and upper bound theorems for these polytopes as functions of $d,n$…
The theory of Frobenius groups with Frobenius complements of even order largely reduces to tractable algebraic number theory. If we consider only Frobenius complements with an upper bound $s$ on the number of distinct primes dividing the…
We prove a lower bound for the exponent of the relative class group $\mathrm{Pic}^0 X_1/\phi^* \mathrm{Pic}^0 X_2$ for a covering of curves $X_1 \to X_2$ over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. The results improve on the existing best bounds…
The goal of this work is to study the existence of quasi-periodic solutions in time to nonlinear beam equations with a multiplicative potential. The nonlinearities are required to only finitely differentiable and the frequency is along a…
In this note we give an overview of some of our recent work on Anosov representations of discrete groups into higher rank semisimple Lie groups.
We prove some isomorphisms between exceptional W-algebras associated with exceptional simple Lie algebras.
We will prove the following theorems. The first theorem posits the existence of a fixed point for the actions of nilpotent Lie groups on nonpositively curved compact manifolds. The second theorem states that actions of solvable Lie groups…
We prove that there are infinitely often pairs of primes much closer than the average spacing between primes - almost within the square root of the average spacing. We actually prove a more general result concerning the set of values taken…
It is known that a definably compact group G is an extension of a compact Lie group L by a divisible torsion-free normal subgroup. We show that the o-minimal higher homotopy groups of G are isomorphic to the corresponding higher homotopy…
