Lyubeznik numbers of projective schemes

Let X be a projective scheme over a field k and let A be the local ring at the vertex of the affine cone of X under some embedding . We prove that, when char(k)>0, the Lyubeznik numbers λi,j(A) are intrinsic numerical invariants of X, i.e., λi,j(A) depend only on X, but not on the embedding.     

Unique Node Extremal Subgroups in Chevalley Groups

Abstract

Taking G to be a Chevalley group of rank at least 3 and U to be the unipotent radical of a Borel subgroup B,an extremal subgroup A is an abelian normal subgroup of U which is not contained in the intersection of all the unipotent radicals of the rank 1 parabolic subgroups of G containing B. If there is an unique rank 1 parabolic subgroup P of G containing B with the property that A is not contained in the unipotent radical of P,then A is called a unique node extremal subgroup. In this paper we investigate the embedding of unique node extremal subgroups in U and prove that,apart from some specified cases,such a subgroup is contained in the unipotent radical of a certain maximal parabolic subgroup.     

ON ADJUNCTIONS INDUCING THE SAME MONAD

ABSTRACT

Consider an adjunction <F,U;n,c>: K. → A, T = <T,n,u> the monad it induces in K and ø: A → K^T the comparison functor, K^T being the category of T-algebras. By ø*: Proj U → Proj U^T we denote the restriction and co-restriction of ø to the subcategories of U-projective and U^T -projective objects, respectively. In this paper we deal with the following problem, raised by R.-E. Hoffmann in [5] 1.16 (b):

Assuming that ø* is an equivalence of categories when is it possible to find a category C and a right adjoint functor V: C → K inducing the same monad T in K, and a full reflective embedding E: A → K, such that:

(1) V.E = U.

(2) ø = ø'. E for the comparison functor ø': C → K^T .

(3) F'X is contained (via E) in A, for each K-object X, F' being the left adjoint of V.

(4) ø': C → K^T has a full and faithful left adjoint L'.

We prove that there exists a pair (C,V) satisfying the conditions of the problem, with A an isomorphism-closed subcategory of C, such that:

(5) For all C ? Obj C the reflection map r_C: C → A is ø'-initial.

We also prove that this pair (C,V) is the universal solution satisfying condition (5), i.e. if (C_i,V_i) is a pair satisfying conditions (1)-(5) with E_i: A → C₂ the embedding and L_i left adjoint to the comparison functor ø_i: C_i K^T then there exists a unique full and faithful functor H_i: C → C_i such that H. E = E_i and H_i. L'—L_i. Moreover the universal solution is uniquely determined up to isomorphisms of categories and natural isomorphisms of functors. Finally, we study a particular situation and find, within the solutions of the problem satisfying two further conditions, the lease and the largest element. We conclude the paper with an example of this situation.     

Sharpening an Estimate of the Size of the Sumset of a Convex Set

A finite set A = {a₁ < … <a_n}? ? is said to be convex if the sequence (a_i ? a_i?1)ⁿ_i=2 is strictly increasing. Using an estimate of the additive energy of convex sets, one can estimate the size of the sumset as ∣A + A∣ ? ∣A∣^102/65, which slightly sharpens Shkredov’s latest result ∣A + A∣ ? ∣A∣^58/37.

     

On co-positive,semi-monotoneQ-matrices

In this paper we consider not necessarily symmetric co-positive as well as semi-monotoneQ-matrices and give a set of sufficient conditions for such matrices to beR ₀-matrices. We give several examples to show the sharpness of our results. Construction of these examples is based on the following elementary proposition: IfA is a square matrix of ordern whose first two rows are identical and bothA ₁₁ andA ₂₂ areQ-matrices whereA _ii stands for the principal submatrix ofA obtained by deleting rowi and columni fromA, thenA is aQ-matrix.Dedicated to our colleague and friend B.

Infinite Components of An Auslander-Reiten Quiver with Finite DTr-Orbits

Abstract

Let A be a basic connected finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field. We show that if Γ is an infinite connected component of the Auslander-Reiten quiver Γ_A of A in which each Γ_A-orbit contains only finitely many vertices, then the number of indecomposable direct summands of the middle term of any mesh, whose starting vertex belongs to the infinite stable part of Γ, is less than or equal to 3. Moreover, if the nonstable vertices belong to τ_A-orbits of exceptional projectives in Γ, then Γ can be obtained from a stable tube by a finite number of multiple coray-ray insertions of type α?γ and multiple coray-ray insertions of type α?γ.     

Classi localmente filtrali

Abel maps of Gorenstein curves

Abstract  For a Gorenstein curve X and a nonsingular point P∈ X, we construct Abel maps and , where J_Xⁱ is the moduli scheme for simple, torsion-free, rank-1 sheaves on X of degree i. The image curves of A and A_P are shown to have the same arithmetic genus of X. Also, A and A_P are shown to be embeddings away from rational subcurves L⊂ X meeting in separating nodes. Finally we establish a connection with Seshadri’s moduli scheme U_X(1) for semistable, torsion-free, rank-1 sheaves on X, obtaining an embedding of A(X) into U_X(1).

Motivic zeta functions of abelian varieties, and the monodromy conjecture

We prove for abelian varieties a global form of Denef and Loeser?s motivic monodromy conjecture, in arbitrary characteristic. More precisely, we prove that for every tamely ramified abelian variety A over a complete discretely valued field with algebraically closed residue field, its motivic zeta function has a unique pole at Chai?s base change conductor c(A) of A, and that the order of this pole equals one plus the potential toric rank of A. Moreover, we show that for every embedding of Q? in C, the value exp(2πic(A)) is an ?-adic tame monodromy eigenvalue of A. The main tool in the paper is Edixhoven?s filtration on the special fiber of the Néron model of A, which measures the behavior of the Néron model under tame base change.     

Semigroups that are factors of subdirectly irreducible semigroups by their monolith

Jeek and Kepka [4] proved that a universal algebra A with at least one at least binary operation is isomorphic to the factor of a subdirectly irreducible algebra B by its monolith if and only if the intersection of all of its (nonempty) ideals is nonempty, and that B may be chosen to be finite if A is finite. (By an ideal of A is meant a non-empty subset I of A such that f(a₁, . . . , a_n) I whenever f is an n-ary fundamental operation of A and a₁, . . . , a_n A are elements with a_i I for at least one index i.) In the present paper, we prove that if A is a semigroup, then B may be chosen also to be a semigroup, but that a finite semigroup need not be isomorphic to the factor of a finite subdirectly irreducible semigroup by its monolith.     

The Ordered Group of Invertible Ideals of a Prüfer Domain of Finite Character

Abstract

Let D be a Prüfer domain, and denote by ± b?(D) the multiplicative group of all invertible fractional ideals of D, ordered by A ≤ B if and only if A ? B. Denote by G _i the value group of the valuation associated with the valuation ring D _{M i} , where {M _i } _i∈I is the collection of all maximal ideals of D. In this note we prove that the natural map from ± b?(D) into ± b∏ _i∈I G _i is an isomorphism onto the cardinal sum ± b? _i∈I G _i if and only if D is h-local. As a corollary, the group of divisibility of an h-local Bézout domain is isomorphic to ± b? _i∈I G _i , the notation being as above.     

On the strong convergence of sequences of Halpern type in Hilbert spaces

ABSTRACT

In this paper, we introduce a concept of A-sequences of Halpern type where A is an averaging infinite matrix. If A is the identity matrix, this notion become the well-know sequence generated by Halpern's iteration. A necessary and sufficient condition for the strong convergence of A-sequences of Halpern type is given whenever the matrix A satisfies some certain concentrating conditions. This class of matrices includes two interesting classes of matrices considered by Combettes and Pennanen [J. Math. Anal. Appl. 2002;275:521–536]. We deduce all the convergence theorems studied by Cianciaruso et al. [Optimization. 2016;65:1259–1275] and Muglia et al. [J. Nonlinear Convex Anal. 2016;17:2071–2082] from our result. Moreover, these results are established under the weaker assumptions. We also show that the same conclusion remains true under a new condition.     

The Simple Connectedness of a Tame Weakly Shod Algebra

Abstract

We prove that a tame weakly shod algebra A which is not quasi-tilted is simply connected if and only if the orbit graph of its pip-bounded component is a tree, or if and only if its first Hochschild cohomology group H¹(A) with coefficients in _A A _A vanishes. We also show that it is strongly simply connected if and only if the orbit graph of each of its directed components is a tree, or if and only if H¹(A) = 0 and it contains no full convex subcategory which is hereditary of type 𝔸?, or if and only if it is separated and contains no full convex subcategory which is hereditary of type 𝔸?.

Some Results on Injective Modules Over a Ring of Krull Type

ABSTRACT

In this article, we study injective modules over a ring of Krull type A. Our main result is E(K/A)? ?_{ω∈Ω ^t} E(K/?_ω), where Ω ^t is a thin defining family of valuations of A. We also characterize the rings of Krull type A such that TE(K/A) is a cogenerator of the quotient category Mod(A)/?₀, where ?₀ is the thick subcategory of the modules with trivial maps into the codivisorial modules.     

On the Constructive Inverse Problem in Differential Galois Theory#

We give sufficient conditions for a differential equation to have a given semisimple group as its Galois group. For any group G with G ⁰ = G ₁ · ··· · G _r , where each G _i is a simple group of type A_?, C_?, D_?, E₆, or E₇, we construct a differential equation over C(x) having Galois group G.     

On the influence of parameters determining anisotropic spaces of smooth functions on characteristics of the embedding theorems

An anisotropic Sobolev and Nikol'skii-Besov space on a domain G is determined by its integro-differential (shortly, ID) parameters. On the other hand, the geometry of G is characterized by the set Λ(G) of all vectors λ=(λ₁,..., λ_n) such that G satisfies the λ-horn condition. We study the dependence of the totality of possible embeddings upon the set Λ(G) and theID-parameters of the space. We consider only embeddings with q≥pⁱ, where pⁱ are the integral parameters of the space and q is the integral embedding parameter. For a given space, we introduce its initial matrix A₀ determined by theID-parameters. A₀ turns out to be a Z-matrix. On the basis of a natural classification of Z-matrices, a classification of anisotropic spaces is introduced. This classification allows one to restate the existence of an embedding with q≥pⁱ in terms of certain specific properties of A₀. Let A₀ be a nondegenerate M-matrix. Any vector λ∈Λ(G) gives rise to a certain set of admissible values of the embedding parameters. We call λ optimal if this set is the largest possible. It turns out that the optimal vector λ _G ^* is determined by Λ(G) and A₀, and may be found by a linear optimization procedure. The following cases are possible: a) , b) , c) λ _G ^* does not exist. In case a) the set of admissible values of the embedding parameters is the biggest, while in case c) no embeddings with q≥pⁱ exist. In case b) the so-called saturation phenomenon occurs, i.e., certain variations of some differential parameters of the space do not change the set of admissible values of the embedding parameters. The latter fact has some applications to the problem of extension of all functions belonging to the given space from G to Eⁿ. Bibliography: 20 titles.
