In this article, we show the relation between the irreducible idempotents of the cyclic group algebra $\mathbb F_qC_n$ and the central irreducible idempotents of the group algebras $\mathbb F_qD_{2n}$, where $\mathbb F_q$ is a finite field…

We consider indecomposable representations of the Klein four group over a field of characteristic $2$ and of a cyclic group of order $pm$ with $p,m$ coprime over a field of characteristic $p$. For each representation we explicitly describe…

For G a finite group and X a G-space on which a normal subgroup A acts trivially, we show that the G-equivariant K-theory of X decomposes as a direct sum of twisted equivariant K-theories of X parametrized by the orbits of the conjugation…

This note is devoted to proving the following result: given a compact metrizable group G, there is a compact metric space K such that G is isomorphic (as a topological group) to the isometry group of K.

We prove twisted homological stability with polynomial coefficients for automorphism groups of free nilpotent groups of any given class. These groups interpolate between two extremes for which homological stability was known before, the…

A cyclic subgroup graph of a group $G$ is a graph whose vertices are cyclic subgroups of $G$ and two distinct vertices $H_1$ and $H_2$ are adjacent if $H_1\leq H_2$, and there is no subgroup $K$ such that $H_1<K<H_2$. M.T\u{a}rn\u{a}uceanu…

Let $G$ be the simple algebraic group $SL_2$ defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $p>0$. In this paper, we find the second cohomology of all irreducible representations of $G$

The abstract quantum algebra of observables for 2+1 gravity is analysed in the limit of small cosmological constant. The algebra splits into two sets with an explicit phase space representation;~one set consists of $6g-6$ {\it commuting}…

We give an explicit list of all p-groups G of order at most p^4 or 2^5 such that the group algebra KG over the field K of characteristic p has a filtered multiplicative K-basis.

We equip the categorified quantum group attached to a KLR algebra and an arbitrary choice of scalars with duality functor which is cyclic, that is, such that f=f^** for all 2-morphisms f. This is accomplished via a modified diagrammatic…

We classify all two-dimensional simple algebras (which may be non-associative) over an algebraically closed field. For each two-dimensional algebra $\mathcal{A}$, we describe a minimal (with respect to inclusion) generating set for the…

In joint work with M. Hopkins and C. Teleman we find a new description of the Verlinde algebra associated to a compact Lie group. In this expository account we describe twisted K-theory, prove the theorem for the group SU(2), and motivate…

We prove that if $A$ is a regular graded skew Clifford algebra and is a twist of a regular graded Clifford algebra $B$ by an automorphism, then the subalgebra of $A$ generated by a certain normalizing sequence of homogeneous degree-two…

This paper introduces the notion of twisted toric manifolds which is a generalization of one of symplectic toric manifolds, and proves the weak Delzant type classification theorem for them. The computation methods for their fundamental…

If phi: G-->G' is a surjective homomorphism, we prove that the twisted Alexander polynomial of G is divisible by the twisted Alexander polynomial of G'. As an application, we show non-existence of surjective homomorphism between certain…

We study a twisted version of Grigorchuk's first group, and stress its similarities and differences to its model. In particular, we show that it admits a finite endomorphic presentation, has infinite-rank multiplier, and does not have the…

We characterise simplicity of twisted C*-algebras of row-finite k-graphs with no sources. We show that each 2-cocycle on a cofinal k-graph determines a canonical second-cohomology class for the periodicity group of the graph. The groupoid…

The generalized chain geometry over the local ring $K(\epsilon;\sigma)$ of twisted dual numbers, where $K$ is a finite field, is interpreted as a divisible design obtained from an imprimitive group action. Its combinatorial properties as…

For a multiplier (2-cocycle) $\sigma$ on a discrete group $G$ we give conditions for which the twisted group $C^*$-algebra associated with the pair $(G,\sigma)$ is prime or primitive. We also discuss how these conditions behave on direct…

Twisted Alexander invariants have been defined for any knot and linear representation of its group. The invariants are generalized for any periodic representation of the commutator subgroup of the knot group. Properties of the new twisted…
