We prove that if $e$ is a join-irreducible element of a semimodular lattice $L$ of finite length and $h<e$ in $L$ such that $e$ does not cover $h$, then $e$ can be "lowered" to a covering of $h$ by taking a length-preserving semimodular…
We explore whether a root lattice may be similar to the lattice $\mathscr O$ of integers of a number field $K$ endowed with the inner product $(x, y):={\rm Trace}_{K/\mathbb Q}(x\cdot\theta(y))$, where $\theta$ is an involution of $K$. We…
We study the existence of cocompact lattices in Lie groups with bi-invariant metric of signature $(2,n-2)$. We assume in addition that the Lie groups under consideration are simply-connected, indecomposable and solvable. Then their centre…
A modular form for an even lattice L of signature (2,n) is said to be 2-reflective if its zero divisor is set-theoretically contained in the Heegner divisor defined by the (-2)-vectors in L. We prove that there are only finitely many even…
A recent paper on the large-scale structure of the Universe presented evidence for a rectangular three-dimensional lattice of galaxy superclusters and voids, with lattice spacing ~120 Mpc and called for some ``hitherto unknown process'' to…
Let $L$ be an integral lattice in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n$ and $W$ an irreducible representation of the orthogonal group of $\mathbb{R}^n$. We give an implemented algorithm computing the dimension of the subspace of invariants in…
Some years ago, Borcherds described in [Bo1] two methods for constructing modular forms on modular varieties related to the orthogonal group ${\O}(2,n)$. They are the so called Borcherds' additive and multiplicative lifting. The…
We consider problems concerning the partial order structure of the set of spreading models of Banach spaces. We construct examples of spaces showing that the possible structure of these sets include certain classes of finite semi-lattices…
This is a survey of results on the classification of Banach spaces as metric spaces. It is based on a series of lectures I gave at the Functional Analysis Seminar in 1984-1985, and it appeared in the 1984-1985 issue of the Longhorn Notes. I…
We construct lattices on six dimensional not completely solvable almost abelian Lie groups, for which the Mostow condition does not hold. For the corresponding compact quotients, we compute the de Rham cohomology (which does not agree in…
We consider the set of all linear combinations with integer coefficients of the vectors of a unit tight equiangular $(k,n)$ frame and are interested in the question whether this set is a lattice, that is, a discrete additive subgroup of the…
A lattice L is spatial if every element of L is a join of completely join-irreducible elements of L (points), and strongly spatial if it is spatial and the minimal coverings of completely join-irreducible elements are well-behaved.…
This is the unabridged table of all 8595 rank three reflective Lorentzian lattices, intended as a supplement to the author's paper classifying them. The abridged table in that paper is complete too, but less explicit, so the main purpose of…
This is my Ph.D. thesis defended earlier this year. It contains mostly information already presented in previous Bielefeld/Saclay papers on this subject, though in more detailed form. It also includes actual calculations and some…
A planar (upper) semimodular lattice $L$ is slim if the five-element nondistributive modular lattice $M_3$ does not occur among its sublattices. (Planar lattices are finite by definition.) Slim rectangular lattices as particular slim planar…
Non-rigidity degree of a lattice $L$, nrd$L$, is dimension of the L-type domain to which $L$ belongs. We complete here the table of nrd's of all root lattices and their duals; namely, the hardest remaining case of $D_n^*$, and the case of…
Representing lattices L by equivalence relations amounts to embed them into the lattice Part(V) of all partitions of a set V, and has a long history. Here we are concerned with MODULAR lattices L and aim for sets V as small as possible,…
Some identities that involve the elliptic version of the Cauchy matrices are presented and proved. They include the determinant formula, the formula for the inverse matrix, the matrix product identity and the factorization formula.
This thesis was concerned with classifying the real indecomposable solvable Lie algebras with codimension one nilradicals of dimensions two through seven. This thesis was organized into three chapters. In the first, we described the…
In $1941$ Dushnik and Miller introduced the concept of dimension of a poset. In $2020$ Bhavale and Waphare introduced the concept of an RC-lattice as a lattice in which all the reducible elements are lying on a chain. In this paper, we…
