The universal minimal one parameter system with quasi-discrete spectrum

The universal minimal one parameter system will be characterized as the space $$\Gamma ^{\infty }$$, in which $$\Gamma$$ is the Bohr compactification of the additive group $${\mathbb {R}}$$ of real numbers. In this way, we need to show that $$\Gamma ^\infty$$ is isomorphic to the spectrum of $$W({\mathbb {R}})$$, the norm closure of the invariant algebra generated by the maps $$\exp q(t)$$, where q(t) is a real polynomial on $${\mathbb {R}}$$.     

New results on the peak algebra

The peak algebra is a unital subalgebra of the symmetric group algebra, linearly spanned by sums of permutations with a common set of peaks. By exploiting the combinatorics of sparse subsets of [n−1] (and of certain classes of compositions of n called almost-odd and thin), we construct three new linear bases of . We discuss two peak analogs of the first Eulerian idempotent and construct a basis of semi-idempotent elements for the peak algebra. We use these bases to describe the Jacobson radical of and to characterize the elements of in terms of the canonical action of the symmetric groups on the tensor algebra of a vector space. We define a chain of ideals of , j = 0,..., , such that is the linear span of sums of permutations with a common set of interior peaks and is the peak algebra. We extend the above results to , generalizing results of Schocker (the case j = 0). Aguiar supported in part by NSF grant DMS-0302423 Orellana supported in part by the Wilson Foundation

Zeta functions of three-dimensional <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic Lie algebras

We give an explicit formula for the subalgebra zeta function of a general three-dimensional Lie algebra over the p-adic integers . To this end, we associate to such a Lie algebra a ternary quadratic form over . The formula for the zeta function is given in terms of Igusa’s local zeta function associated to this form. We acknowledge support from the Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach and the Nuffield Foundation.
