The Poincaré Series of Relative Invariants of Finite Pseudo-Reflection Groups

Let F be a field with characteristic 0,V=F~n the n-dimensional vector space over F and let G be a finite pseudo-reflection group which acts on V.Let χ:G→F~* be a 1-dimensional representation of G.In this article we show that X(g)=(detg)~α(0≤α≤r-1),where g∈G and r is the order of g.In addition,we characterize the relation between the relative invariants and the invariants of the group G,and then we use Molien's Theorem of invariants to compute the Poincaré series of relative invariants.     

The degree of the Hilbert–Poincaré polynomial of PBW-graded modules

In this note, we study the Hilbert–Poincaré polynomials for the associated PBW-graded modules of simple modules for a simple complex Lie algebra. The computation of their degree can be reduced to modules of fundamental highest weight. We provide these degrees explicitly.     

Representations of Nonstandard Poincaré Hopf Algebras

Let 𝔭 _q (1 + 1) be a nonstandard Poincaré Hopf algebra, we characterize all finite dimensional completely E-semisimple modules of 𝔭 _q (1 + 1). We also classify all finite dimensional E-semisimple modules of 𝔭 _q for a special quotient algebra of 𝔭 _q (1 + 1). Moreover, the decomposition of tensor product of two finite dimensional E-semisimple indecomposable modules is obtained.

Some inequalities for the Poincaré metric of plane domains

In this paper, the Poincaré (or hyperbolic) metric and the associated distance are investigated for a plane domain based on the detailed properties of those for the particular domain In particular, another proof of a recent result of Gardiner and Lakic [7] is given with explicit constant. This and some other constants in this paper involve particular values of complete elliptic integrals and related special functions. A concrete estimate for the hyperbolic distance near a boundary point is also given, from which refinements of Littlewood’s theorem are derived.This research was carried out during the first-named author’s visit to the University of Helsinki under the exchange programme of scientists between the Academy of Finland and the JSPS.     

Gelfand–Kirillov Dimension for Automorphism Groups of Relatively Free Algebras

Using ideas of our recent work on automorphisms of residually nilpotent relatively free groups, we introduce a new growth function for subgroups of the automorphism groups of relatively free algebras Fⁿ(V) over a field of characteristic zero and the related notion of Gelfand-Kirillov dimension, and study their behavior. We prove that, under some natural restrictions, the Gelfand-Kirillov dimension of the group of tame automorphisms of Fⁿ(V) is equal to the Gelfand-Kirillov dimension of the algebra Fⁿ(V). We show that, in some cases, the Gelfand-Kirillov dimension of the group of tame automorphisms of Fⁿ(V) is smaller than the Gelfand-Kirillov dimension of the whole automorphism group, and calculate the Gelfand-Kirillov dimension of the automorphism group of Fⁿ(V) for some important varieties V.Partially supported by Grant MM605/96 of the Bulgarian Foundation for Scientific Research.2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: primary 16R10, 16P90; secondary 16W20, 17B01, 17B30, 17B40     

On the Denominator of the Poincaré Series for Monomial Quotient Rings

Let S = 𝕜 [x ₁,…, x _n ] be a polynomial ring over a field 𝕜 and I a monomial ideal of S. It is well known that the Poincaré series of 𝕜 over S/I is rational. We describe the coefficients of the denominator of the series and study the multigraded homotopy Lie algebra of S/I.     

The Connes–Moscovici Approach to Cyclic Cohomology for Compact Quantum Groups

Consider the Hopf algebra (A, ) of regular functions on a compact quantum group. Let (A ^o ,) denote its maximal dual Hopf algebra. We show that the tensor product Hopf algebra (H ₂,₂) of (A ^o ,) and its opposite Hopf algebra is endowed with a modular pair (,) in involution; a notion introduced by A. Connes and J. Moscovici, who associate canonically a cocyclic object to such Hopf algebras. Denote the Hopf cyclic cohomology thus obtained by HC ^* _(,)(H ₂). Next we define an action of H ₂),₂ on A and show that the Haar state of (A, ) is a -invariant -trace on A with respect to this action. This gives us a canonical map from HC ^* _(,)(H ₂) to the ordinary cyclic cohomology of A.     

Periodic Cyclic Homology of Iwahori–Hecke Algebras

We determine the periodic cyclic homology of the Iwahori–Hecke algebras H _q , for q * not a proper root of unity. (In this paper, by a proper root of unity we shall mean a root of unity other than 1.) Our method is based on a general result on periodic cyclic homology, which states that a weakly spectrum preserving morphism of finite type algebras induces an isomorphism in periodic cyclic homology. The concept of a weakly spectrum preserving morphism is defined in this paper, and most of our work is devoted to understanding this class of morphisms. Results of Kazhdan and Lusztig and Lusztig show that, for the indicated values of q, there exists a weakly spectrum preserving morphism _q : H _q J, to a fixed finite type algebra J. This proves that _q induces an isomorphism in periodic cyclic homology and, in particular, that all algebras H _q have the same periodic cyclic homology, for the indicated values of q. The periodic cyclic homology groups of the algebra H ₁ can then be determined directly, using results of Karoubi and Burghelea, because it is the group algebra of an extended affine Weyl group.     

Some Poincaré type inequalities for quadratic matrix fields

We present some Poincaré type inequalities for quadratic matrix fields with applications e.g. in gradient plasticity or fluid dynamics. In particular, an application to the pseudostress-velocity formulation of the stationary Stokes problem is discussed. (© 2013 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

On Four-Dimensional Poincaré Duality Cobordism Groups

This paper continues the study of four-dimensional Poincaré duality cobordism theory from our previous work Cavicchioli et al. (Homol. Homotopy Appl. 18(2):267–281, 2016). Let P be an oriented finite Poincaré duality complex of dimension 4. Then, we calculate the Poincaré duality cobordism group \(\Omega _{4}^{{\text {PD}}}(P)\). The main result states the existence of the exact sequence \(0 \rightarrow L_4 (\pi _1 (P))/A_4 (H_2 (B\pi _1 (P), L_2)) \rightarrow {{\widetilde{\Omega }}}_{4}^{\mathrm{PD}}(P) \rightarrow \mathbb Z_8 \rightarrow 0\), where \({{\widetilde{\Omega }}}_{4}^{\mathrm{PD}}(P)\) is the kernel of the canonical map \({\Omega }_{4}^{\mathrm{PD}}(P) \rightarrow H_4 (P, \mathbb Z) \cong \mathbb Z\) and \(A_4 : H_4 (B\pi _1, \mathbb L) \rightarrow L_4 (\pi _1 (P))\) is the assembly map. It turns out that \({\Omega }_{4}^{\mathrm{PD}}(P)\) depends only on \(\pi _1 (P)\) and the assembly map \(A_4\). This does not hold in higher dimensions. Then, we discuss several examples. The cases in which the canonical map \(\Omega _{4}^{{\text {TOP}}}(P) \rightarrow \Omega _{4}^{{\text {PD}}}(P)\) is not surjective are of particular interest. Its image coincides with the kernel of the total surgery obstruction map. In fact, we establish an exact sequence

Characteristic classes and Hilbert–Poincaré series for perverse sheaves on abelian varieties

The convolution powers of a perverse sheaf on an abelian variety define an interesting family of branched local systems whose geometry is still poorly understood. We show that the generating series for their generic rank is a rational function of a very simple shape and that a similar result holds for the symmetric convolution powers. We also give formulae for other Schur functors in terms of characteristic classes on the dual abelian variety, and as an example we discuss the case of Prym–Tjurin varieties.     

Multi-index Filtrations and Generalized Poincaré Series

A multi-index filtration on the ring of germs of functions can be described by its Poincaré series. We consider a finer invariant (or rather two invariants) of a multi-index filtration than the Poincaré series generalizing the last one. The construction is based on the fact that the Poincaré series can be written as a certain integral with respect to the Euler characteristic over the projectivization of the ring of functions. The generalization of the Poincaré series is defined as a similar integral with respect to the generalized Euler characteristic with values in the Grothendieck ring of varieties. For the filtration defined by orders of functions on the components of a plane curve singularity C and for the so called divisorial filtration for a modification of by a sequence of blowing-ups there are given formulae for this generalized Poincaré series in terms of an embedded resolution of the germ C or in terms of the modification respectively. The generalized Euler characteristic of the extended semigroup corresponding to the divisorial filtration is computed giving a curious “motivic version” of an A’Campo type formula.

Differentiable Connections with Poincaré Groups of Local Transformations. I

In the canonical smooth fiber bundles , we study generalized differentiable connections constructed by the author in his previous works. Special emphasis is laid on the investigation of the behavior of these connections under local transformations of the classical Poincaré groups and extented Poincaré groups canonically acting in the given connections. We found all firstorder nonholonomic affine, connections with the groups and of local transformations and also constructed classes of the corresponding invariant secondorder connections.
