We provide descriptions of the Whitehead groups, and the algebraic $K$-theory groups, of the fundamental group of a connected, oriented, closed $3$-manifold in terms of Whitehead groups of their finite subgroups and certain Nil-groups. The…
Let $E_{d}(\ell)$ denote the space of all closed $n$-gons in $\R^{d}$ (where $d\ge 2$) with sides of length $\ell_1,..., \ell_n$, viewed up to translations. The spaces $E_d(\ell)$ are parameterized by their length vectors $\ell=(\ell_1,...,…
Two types of higher order Lie $\ell$-ple systems are introduced in this paper. They are defined by brackets with $\ell > 3$ arguments satisfying certain conditions, and generalize the well known Lie triple systems. One of the…
K-theory provides a framework for classifying Ramond-Ramond (RR) charges and fields. K-theory of manifolds has a natural extension to K-theory of noncommutative algebras, such as the algebra considered in noncommutative Yang-Mills theory or…
We consider the problem of classifying quadruples $(K,E,m_1,m_2)$ where $K$ is a number field, $E$ is an elliptic curve defined over $K$ and $(m_1,m_2)$ is a pair of relatively prime positive integers for which the intersection $K(E[m_1])…
Let $\ell$ and $p$ be prime numbers and $K_{n,m}=\mathbb{Q}(p^{\frac{1}{\ell^n}},\zeta_{2\ell^{m}})$. We study the $\ell$-class group of $K_{n,m}$ in this paper. When $\ell=2$, we determine the structure of the $2$-class group of $K_{n,m}$…
A $k$-wise $\ell$-divisible set family is a collection $\mathcal{F}$ of subsets of ${ \{1,\ldots,n \} }$ such that any intersection of $k$ sets in $\mathcal{F}$ has cardinality divisible by $\ell$. If $k=\ell=2$, it is well-known that…
Regular algebraic $K$-theory for groups is a homology theory for discrete groups closely connected (but different from) group homology. It also gives a version of algebraic $K$-theory for rings by the simple functorial mapping assigning to…
Let $f\colon M^{2n}\to\mathbb{R}^{2n+\ell}$, $n \geq 5$, denote a conformal immersion into Euclidean space with codimension $\ell$ of a Kaehler manifold of complex dimension $n$ and free of flat points. For codimensions $\ell=1,2$ we show…
We use Drinfeld style generators and relations to define an algebra $\mathfrak{U}_n$ which is a ``$q=0$'' version of the affine quantum group of $\mathfrak{gl}_n.$ We then use the convolution product on the equivariant $K$-theory of…
We show that the complex normed linear space $\ell^1(n),$ $n>1,$ has no isometric embedding into $k\times k$ complex matrices for any $k\in \mathbb{N}$ and discuss a class of infinite dimensional operator space structures on it.
We improve the bound on K\"uhnel's problem to determine the smallest $n$ such that the $k$-skeleton of an $n$-simplex $\Delta_n^{(k)}$ does not embed into a compact PL $2k$-manifold $M$ by showing that if $\Delta_n^{(k)}$ embeds into $M$,…
Let K be a field of positive characteristic p, let R be either a group algebra K[G] or a restricted enveloping algebra u(L), and let I be the augmentation ideal of R. We first characterize those R for which I satisfies a polynomial identity…
Let $F$ be a nonarchimedean local field of characteristic zero and let SL(N) = SL(N,F). This article is devoted to studying the influence of the elliptic representations of SL(N) on the $K$-theory. We provide full arithmetic details. This…
In this paper, we study arithmetic properties satisfied by the $k$-tuple $\ell$-regular partitions. A $k$-tuple of partitions $(\xi_1, \xi_2, \ldots, \xi_k)$ is said to be $\ell$-regular if all the $\xi_i$'s are $\ell$-regular. We study the…
We use topological K-theory to study non-singular varieties with quadratic entry locus. We thus obtain a new proof of Russo's Divisibility Property for locally quadratic entry locus manifolds. In particular we obtain a K-theoretic proof of…
Let $\ell$ be an odd prime and $d$ a positive integer. We determine when there exists a degree-$d$ number field $K$ and an elliptic curve $E/K$ with $j(E)\in\mathbb{Q}\setminus\{0,1728\}$ for which $E(K)_{\mathrm{tors}}$ contains a point of…
We define a class of quantum linear Galois algebras which include the universal enveloping algebra Uq(gln), the quantum Heisenberg Lie algebra and other quantum orthogonal Gelfand-Zetlin algebras of type A, the subalgebras of G-invariants…
The Chern isomorphism determines the free part of the K-groups from ordinary cohomology. Thus to really understand the implications of K-theory for physics one must look at manifolds with K-torsion. Unfortunately there are not many explicit…
In this paper we identify the ``nil-terms'' for Waldhausen's algebraic K-theory of spaces functor as the reduced K-theory of a category of equivariant spaces equipped with a homotopically nilpotent endomorphism.
