Links of Faithful Partial Tilting Modules

For a basic, hereditary, finite dimensional algebra Λ over an algebraically closed field k we consider the quiver \({\overrightarrow{\mathcal K}\!_{\Lambda}}\) of tilting modules and the subquivers of \({\overrightarrow{\mathcal K}\!_{\Lambda}}\) which are links \({\overrightarrow{{\text{lk}}}(M)}\) to partial tilting modules M and show that \({\overrightarrow{{\text{lk}}}(M)}\) is connected if M is faithful.     

Tempered representations of <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic groups: special idempotents and topology

Let \(G=G(k)\) be a connected reductive group over a p-adic field k. The smooth (and tempered) complex representations of G can be considered as the nondegenerate modules over the Hecke algebra \({\mathcal {H}}={\mathcal {H}}(G)\) and the Schwartz algebra \({\mathcal {S}}={\mathcal {S}}(G)\) forming abelian categories \({\mathcal {M}}(G)\) and \({\mathcal {M}}^t(G)\), respectively. Idempotents \(e\in {\mathcal {H}}\) or \({\mathcal {S}}\) define full subcategories \({\mathcal {M}}_e(G)= \{V : {\mathcal {H}}eV=V\}\) and \({\mathcal {M}}_e^t(G)= \{V : {\mathcal {S}}eV=V\}\). Such an e is said to be special (in \({\mathcal {H}}\) or \({\mathcal {S}}\)) if the corresponding subcategory is abelian. Parallel to Bernstein’s result for \(e\in {\mathcal {H}}\) we will prove that, for special \(e \in {\mathcal {S}}\), \({\mathcal {M}}_e^t(G) = \prod _{\Theta \in \theta _e} {\mathcal {M}}^t(\Theta )\) is a finite direct product of component categories \({\mathcal {M}}^t(\Theta )\), now referring to connected components of the center of \({\mathcal {S}}\). A special \(e\in {\mathcal {H}}\) will be also special in \({\mathcal {S}}\), but idempotents \(e\in {\mathcal {H}}\) not being special can become special in \({\mathcal {S}}\). To obtain conditions we consider the sets \(\mathrm{Irr}^t(G) \subset \mathrm{Irr}(G)\) of (tempered) smooth irreducible representations of G, and we view \(\mathrm{Irr}(G)\) as a topological space for the Jacobson topology defined by the algebra \({\mathcal {H}}\). We use this topology to introduce a preorder on the connected components of \(\mathrm{Irr}^t(G)\). Then we prove that, for an idempotent \(e \in {\mathcal {H}}\) which becomes special in \({\mathcal {S}}\), its support \(\theta _e\) must be saturated with respect to that preorder. We further analyze the above decomposition of \({\mathcal {M}}_e^t(G)\) in the case where G is k-split with connected center and where \(e = e_J \in {\mathcal {H}}\) is the Iwahori idempotent. Here we can use work of Kazhdan and Lusztig to relate our preorder on the support \(\theta _{e_J}\) to the reverse of the natural partial order on the unipotent classes in G. We finish by explicitly computing the case \(G=GL_n\), where \(\theta _{e_J}\) identifies with the set of partitions of n. Surprisingly our preorder (which is a partial order now) is strictly coarser than the reverse of the dominance order on partitions.     

Spectral properties of continuous representations of topological groups

Let \({\mathcal{L}(X)}\) be the algebra of all bounded operators on a Banach space X. \({\theta:G\rightarrow \mathcal{L}(X)}\) denotes a strongly continuous representation of a topological abelian group G on X. Set \({\sigma^1(\theta(g)):=\{\lambda/|\lambda|,\lambda\in\sigma(\theta(g))\}}\), where σ(θ(g)) is the spectrum of θ(g) and \({\Sigma:=\{g\in G/\enskip\text{there is no} \enskip P\in \mathcal{P}/P\subseteq \sigma^1(\theta(g))\}}\), where \({\mathcal{P}}\) is the set of regular polygons of \({\mathbb{T}}\) (we call polygon in \({\mathbb{T}}\) the image by a rotation of a closed subgroup of \({\mathbb{T}}\), the unit circle of \({\mathbb{C}}\)). We prove here that if G is a locally compact and second countable abelian group, then θ is uniformly continuous if and only if Σ is non-meager.     

Derivations,Local and 2-Local Derivations on Some Algebras of Operators on Hilbert C*-Modules

For a commutative C*-algebra \({\mathcal {A}}\) with unit e and a Hilbert \({\mathcal {A}}\)-module \({\mathcal {M}}\), denote by End\(_{{\mathcal {A}}}({\mathcal {M}})\) the algebra of all bounded \({\mathcal {A}}\)-linear mappings on \({\mathcal {M}}\), and by End\(^*_{{\mathcal {A}}}({\mathcal {M}})\) the algebra of all adjointable mappings on \({\mathcal {M}}\). We prove that if \({\mathcal {M}}\) is full, then each derivation on End\(_{{\mathcal {A}}}({\mathcal {M}})\) is \({\mathcal {A}}\)-linear, continuous, and inner, and each 2-local derivation on End\(_{{\mathcal {A}}}({\mathcal {M}})\) or End\(^{*}_{{\mathcal {A}}}({\mathcal {M}})\) is a derivation. If there exist \(x_0\) in \({\mathcal {M}}\) and \(f_0\) in \({\mathcal {M}}^{'}\), such that \(f_0(x_0)=e\), where \({\mathcal {M}}^{'}\) denotes the set of all bounded \({\mathcal {A}}\)-linear mappings from \({\mathcal {M}}\) to \({\mathcal {A}}\), then each \({\mathcal {A}}\)-linear local derivation on End\(_{{\mathcal {A}}}({\mathcal {M}})\) is a derivation.     

M-$${\mathcal{}}$$-Injective (Flat) and Strongly $${\mathcal{B}}$$B-Injective (Flat) Modules

Let M be a left R-module, \({\mathcal{A}}\)be a family of some submodules of M and \({\mathcal{B}}\)be a family of some left R-modules. In this article, we introduce and characterize \({\mathcal{A}}\)-coherent, \({P\mathcal{A}}\), \({F\mathcal{A}}\), M-\({\mathcal{A}}\)-injective (flat) and strongly \({\mathcal{B}}\)-injective (flat) modules, which are generalizations of coherent, PS, FS, M-injective (flat) and strongly M-injective modules, respectively. We extend some known results to this general structure.     

Local derivations of full matrix rings

Let \({\mathcal{R}}\) be a unital commutative ring and \({\mathcal{M}}\) be a 2-torsion free central \({\mathcal{R}}\) -bimodule. In this paper, for \({n \geqq 3}\), we show that every local derivation from M _n (\({\mathcal{R}}\)) into M _n (\({\mathcal{M}}\)) is a derivation.     

The countable existentially closed pseudocomplemented semilattice

As the class \(\mathcal {PCSL}\) of pseudocomplemented semilattices is a universal Horn class generated by a single finite structure it has a \(\aleph _0\)-categorical model companion \(\mathcal {PCSL}^*\). As \(\mathcal {PCSL}\) is inductive the models of \(\mathcal {PCSL}^*\) are exactly the existentially closed models of \(\mathcal {PCSL}\). We will construct the unique existentially closed countable model of \(\mathcal {PCSL}\) as a direct limit of algebraically closed pseudocomplemented semilattices.     

Gauge functions,Eikonal equations and Bôcher’s theorem on stratified Lie groups

Let \({\mathcal{L} = \sum_{i=1}^m X_i^2}\) be a real sub-Laplacian on a Carnot group \({\mathbb{G}}\) and denote by \({\nabla_\mathcal{L} = (X_1,\ldots,X_m)}\) the intrinsic gradient related to \({\mathcal{L}}\). Our aim in this present paper is to analyze some features of the \({\mathcal{L}}\)-gauge functions on \({\mathbb{G}}\), i.e., the homogeneous functions d such that \({\mathcal{L}(d^\gamma) = 0}\) in \({\mathbb{G} \setminus \{0\}}\) , for some \({\gamma \in \mathbb{R} \setminus \{0\}}\). We consider the relation of \({\mathcal{L}}\)-gauge functions with: the \({\mathcal{L}}\)-Eikonal equation \({|\nabla_\mathcal{L} u| = 1}\) in \({\mathbb{G}}\); the Mean Value Formulas for the \({\mathcal{L}}\)-harmonic functions; the fundamental solution for \({\mathcal{L}}\); the Bôcher-type theorems for nonnegative \({\mathcal{L}}\)-harmonic functions in “punctured” open sets \({\dot \Omega:= \Omega \setminus \{x_0\}}\).     

Relative Igusa-Todorov Functions and Relative Homological Dimensions

We develope the theory of \({\mathcal {E}}\)-relative Igusa-Todorov functions in an exact I T-context \(({\mathcal {C}},{\mathcal {E}})\) (see Definition 2.1). In the case when \({\mathcal {C}}={\text {mod}}\, ({\Lambda })\) is the category of finitely generated left Λ-modules, for an artin algebra Λ, and \({\mathcal {E}}\) is the class of all exact sequences in \({\mathcal {C}},\) we recover the usual Igusa-Todorov functions, Igusa K. and Todorov G. (2005). We use the setting of the exact structures and the Auslander-Solberg relative homological theory to generalise the original Igusa-Todorov’s results. Furthermore, we introduce the \({\mathcal {E}}\)-relative Igusa-Todorov dimension and also we obtain relationships with the relative global and relative finitistic dimensions and the Gorenstein homological dimensions.     

Codes with the identifiable parent property for multimedia fingerprinting

Let \({\mathcal {C}}\) be a q-ary code of length n and size M, and \({\mathcal {C}}(i) = \{\mathbf{c}(i) \ | \ \mathbf{c}=(\mathbf{c}(1), \mathbf{c}(2), \ldots , \mathbf{c}(n))^{T} \in {\mathcal {C}}\}\) be the set of ith coordinates of \({\mathcal {C}}\). The descendant code of a sub-code \({\mathcal {C}}^{'} \subseteq {\mathcal {C}}\) is defined to be \({\mathcal {C}}^{'}(1) \times {\mathcal {C}}^{'}(2) \times \cdots \times {\mathcal {C}}^{'}(n)\). In this paper, we introduce a multimedia analogue of codes with the identifiable parent property (IPP), called multimedia IPP codes or t-MIPPC(n, M, q), so that given the descendant code of any sub-code \({\mathcal {C}}^{'}\) of a multimedia t-IPP code \({\mathcal {C}}\), one can always identify, as IPP codes do in the generic digital scenario, at least one codeword in \({\mathcal {C}}^{'}\). We first derive a general upper bound on the size M of a multimedia t-IPP code, and then investigate multimedia 3-IPP codes in more detail. We characterize a multimedia 3-IPP code of length 2 in terms of a bipartite graph and a generalized packing, respectively. By means of these combinatorial characterizations, we further derive a tight upper bound on the size of a multimedia 3-IPP code of length 2, and construct several infinite families of (asymptotically) optimal multimedia 3-IPP codes of length 2.     

An Invariant Subspace Theorem and Invariant Subspaces of Analytic Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Spaces - II

This paper is a follow-up contribution to our work (Sarkar in J Oper Theory, 73:433–441, 2015) where we discussed some invariant subspace results for contractions on Hilbert spaces. Here we extend the results of (Sarkar in J Oper Theory, 73:433–441, 2015) to the context of n-tuples of bounded linear operators on Hilbert spaces. Let \(T = (T_1, \ldots , T_n)\) be a pure commuting co-spherically contractive n-tuple of operators on a Hilbert space \({\mathcal {H}}\) and \({\mathcal {S}}\) be a non-trivial closed subspace of \({\mathcal {H}}\). One of our main results states that: \({\mathcal {S}}\) is a joint T-invariant subspace if and only if there exists a partially isometric operator \(\Pi \in {\mathcal {B}}(H^2_n({\mathcal {E}}), {\mathcal {H}})\) such that \({\mathcal {S}}= \Pi H^2_n({\mathcal {E}})\), where \(H^2_n\) is the Drury–Arveson space and \({\mathcal {E}}\) is a coefficient Hilbert space and \(T_i \Pi = \Pi M_{z_i}\), \(i = 1, \ldots , n\). In particular, it follows that a shift invariant subspace of a “nice” reproducing kernel Hilbert space over the unit ball in \({{\mathbb {C}}}^n\) is the range of a “multiplier” with closed range. Our work addresses the case of joint shift invariant subspaces of the Hardy space and the weighted Bergman spaces over the unit ball in \({{\mathbb {C}}}^n\).     

Hausdorffness for Lie algebra homology of Schwartz spaces and applications to the comparison conjecture

Let H be a real algebraic group acting equivariantly with finitely many orbits on a real algebraic manifold X and a real algebraic bundle \({\mathcal {E}}\) on X. Let \(\mathfrak {h}\) be the Lie algebra of H. Let \(\mathcal {S}(X,{\mathcal {E}})\) be the space of Schwartz sections of \({\mathcal {E}}\). We prove that \(\mathfrak {h}\mathcal {S}(X,{\mathcal {E}})\) is a closed subspace of \(\mathcal {S}(X,{\mathcal {E}})\) of finite codimension. We give an application of this result in the case when H is a real spherical subgroup of a real reductive group G. We deduce an equivalence of two old conjectures due to Casselman: the automatic continuity and the comparison conjecture for zero homology. Namely, let \(\pi \) be a Casselman–Wallach representation of G and V be the corresponding Harish–Chandra module. Then the natural morphism of coinvariants \(V_{\mathfrak {h}}\rightarrow \pi _{\mathfrak {h}}\) is an isomorphism if and only if any linear \(\mathfrak {h}\)-invariant functional on V is continuous in the topology induced from \(\pi \). The latter statement is known to hold in two important special cases: if H includes a symmetric subgroup, and if H includes the nilradical of a minimal parabolic subgroup of G.     

Einstein solvmanifolds: existence and non-existence questions

The aim of this paper is to study the problem of which solvable Lie groups admit an Einstein left invariant metric. The space \({\mathcal{N}}\) of all nilpotent Lie brackets on \({\mathbb{R}^n}\) parametrizes a set of (n + 1)-dimensional rank-one solvmanifolds \({\{S_{\mu}:\mu\in\mathcal{N}\}}\), containing the set of all those which are Einstein in that dimension. The moment map for the natural GL _n -action on \({\mathcal{N}}\), evaluated at \({\mu\in\mathcal{N}}\), encodes geometric information on S _μ and suggests the use of strong results from geometric invariant theory. For instance, the functional on \({\mathcal{N}}\) whose critical points are precisely the Einstein S _μ ’s, is the square norm of this moment map. We use a GL _n -invariant stratification for the space \({\mathcal{N}}\) and show that there is a strong interplay between the strata and the Einstein condition on the solvmanifolds S _μ . As an application, we obtain criteria to decide whether a given nilpotent Lie algebra can be the nilradical of a rank-one Einstein solvmanifold or not. We find several examples of \({\mathbb{N}}\)-graded (even 2-step) nilpotent Lie algebras which are not. A classification in the 7-dimensional, 6-step case and an existence result for certain 2-step algebras associated to graphs are also given.     

Hecke algebras for {{\rm GL}_n} over local fields

We study the local Hecke algebra \({\mathcal{H}_{G}(K)}\) for \({G = {\rm GL}_{n}}\) and K a non-archimedean local field of characteristic zero. We show that for \({G = {\rm GL}_{2}}\) and any two such fields K and L, there is a Morita equivalence \({\mathcal{H}_{G}(K) \sim_{M} \mathcal{H}_{G}(L)}\), by using the Bernstein decomposition of the Hecke algebra and determining the intertwining algebras that yield the Bernstein blocks up to Morita equivalence. By contrast, we prove that for \({G = {\rm GL}_{n}}\), there is an algebra isomorphism \({\mathcal{H}_{G}(K) \cong \mathcal{H}_{G}(L)}\) which is an isometry for the induced \({L^1}\)-norm if and only if there is a field isomorphism \({K \cong L}\).     

Generalized commutativity of lattice-ordered groups II

Commutative \({\ell}\)-groups G (in which for all \({x, y \in G, xy = yx}\)) were studied long ago. This was then generalized to the study of \({\ell}\)-groups G in which for a given integer n and for all \({x, y \in G, x^{n}y^{n} = y^{n}x^{n}}\). It was then discovered that if for all \({x, y \in G}\), both \({x^{n}y^{n} = y^{n}x^{n}}\) and \({x^{m}y^{m} = y^{m}x^{m}}\) for two different integers m, n, then also \({x^{d}y^{d} = y^{d}x^{d}}\), where d is the greatest common divisor of m, n.     

Bilinear dual hyperovals in the largest ambient spaces

The following facts are shown for a bilinear dual hyperoval \({\mathcal {S}}\) of rank n. The ambient space \({\mathbf {A}}({\mathcal {S}})\) has vector dimension at most \(n(n+1)/2\). The dimension of \({\mathbf {A}}({\mathcal {S}})\) is \(n(n+1)/2\) if and only if \({\mathcal {S}}\) is isomorphic to the Huybrechts or the Buratti–Del Fra dual hyperoval.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">k</Emphasis>-Extreme Points in Symmetric Spaces of Measurable Operators

Let \({\mathcal{M}}\) be a semifinite von Neumann algebra with a faithful, normal, semifinite trace \({\tau}\) and E be a strongly symmetric Banach function space on \({[0,\tau({\bf 1}))}\) . We show that an operator x in the unit sphere of \({E(\mathcal{M}, \tau)}\) is k-extreme, \({k \in {\mathbb{N}}}\) , whenever its singular value function \({\mu(x)}\) is k-extreme and one of the following conditions hold (i) \({\mu(\infty, x) = \lim_{t\to\infty}\mu(t, x) = 0}\) or (ii) \({n(x)\mathcal{M}n(x^*) = 0}\) and \({|x| \geq \mu(\infty, x)s(x)}\) , where n(x) and s(x) are null and support projections of x, respectively. The converse is true whenever \({\mathcal{M}}\) is non-atomic. The global k-rotundity property follows, that is if \({\mathcal{M}}\) is non-atomic then E is k-rotund if and only if \(E(\mathcal{M}, \tau)\) is k-rotund. As a consequence of the noncommutative results we obtain that f is a k-extreme point of the unit ball of the strongly symmetric function space E if and only if its decreasing rearrangement \({\mu(f)}\) is k-extreme and \({|f| \geq \mu(\infty,f)}\) . We conclude with the corollary on orbits Ω(g) and Ω′(g). We get that f is a k-extreme point of the orbit \({\Omega(g),\,g \in L_1 + L_{\infty}}\) , or \({\Omega'(g),\,g \in L_1[0, \alpha),\,\alpha < \infty}\) , if and only if \({\mu(f) = \mu(g)}\) and \({|f| \geq \mu(\infty, f)}\) . From this we obtain a characterization of k-extreme points in Marcinkiewicz spaces.     

On permutable meromorphic functions

We study the class \({\mathcal{M}}\) of functions meromorphic outside a countable closed set of essential singularities. We show that if a function in \({\mathcal{M}}\), with at least one essential singularity, permutes with a non-constant rational map g, then g is a Möbius map that is not conjugate to an irrational rotation. For a given function \({f \in\mathcal{M}}\) which is not a Möbius map, we show that the set of functions in \({\mathcal{M}}\) that permute with f is countably infinite. Finally, we show that there exist transcendental meromorphic functions \({f : \mathbb{C} \to \mathbb{C}}\) such that, among functions meromorphic in the plane, f permutes only with itself and with the identity map.     

Joins and subdirect products of varieties

We generalise in three different directions two well-known results in universal algebra. Grätzer, Lakser and P?onka proved that independent subvarieties \({\mathcal{V}_{1}, \mathcal{V}_{2}}\) of a variety \({\mathcal{V}}\) are disjoint and such that their join \({\mathcal{V}_{1} \vee \mathcal{V}_{2}}\) (in the lattice of subvarieties of \({\mathcal{V}}\)) is their direct product \({\mathcal{V}_{1} \times \mathcal{V}_{2}}\) . Jónsson and Tsinakis provided a partial converse to this result: if \({\mathcal{V}}\) is congruence permutable and \({\mathcal{V}_{1}, \mathcal{V}_{2}}\) are disjoint, then they are independent (and so \({\mathcal{V}_{1} \vee \mathcal{V}_{2} = \mathcal{V}_{1} \times \mathcal{V}_{2}}\)). We show that (i) if \({\mathcal{V}}\) is subtractive, then Jónsson’s and Tsinakis’ result holds under some minimal assumptions; (ii) if \({\mathcal{V}}\) satisfies some weakened permutability conditions, then disjointness implies a generalised notion of independence and \({\mathcal{V}_{1} \vee \mathcal{V}_{2}}\) is the subdirect product of \({\mathcal{V}_{1}}\) and \({\mathcal{V}_2}\) ; (iii) the same holds if \({\mathcal{V}}\) is congruence 3-permutable.     

The Katchalski–Lewis transversal problem for regular polygons

If every k-membered subfamily of a family of plane convex bodies has a line transversal, then we say that this family has property T(k). We say that a family \({\mathcal{F}}\) has property \({T-m}\), if there exists a subfamily \({\mathcal{G} \subset \mathcal{F}}\) with \({|\mathcal{F} - \mathcal{G}| \le m}\) admitting a line transversal. Heppes [7] posed the problem whether there exists a convex body K in the plane such that if \({\mathcal{F}}\) is a finite T(3)-family of disjoint translates of K, then m = 3 is the smallest value for which \({\mathcal{F}}\) has property \({T-m}\). In this paper, we study this open problem in terms of finite T(3)-families of pairwise disjoint translates of a regular 2n-gon \({(n \ge 5)}\). We find out that, for \({5 \le n \le 34}\), the family has property \({T - 3}\) ; for \({n \ge 35}\), the family has property \({T - 2}\).
