Generalized twisted cubics on a cubic fourfold as a moduli space of stable objects
2016
We revisit the work of Lehn-Lehn-Sorger-van Straten on twisted cubic curves in a cubic fourfold not containing a plane in terms of moduli spaces. We show that the blow-up $Z'$ along the cubic of the irreducible holomorphic symplectic eightfold $Z$, described by the four authors, is isomorphic to an irreducible component of a moduli space of Gieseker stable torsion sheaves or rank three torsion free sheaves. For a very general such cubic fourfold, we show that $Z$ is isomorphic to a connected component of a moduli space of tilt-stable objects in the derived category and to a moduli space of Bridgeland stable objects in the Kuznetsov component. Moreover, the contraction between $Z'$ and $Z$ i…
Locally Convex Quasi *-Algebras of Operators
2011
This note is mainly concerned with locally convex quasi C*-normed *-algebras which arise as completions of C*-algebras of operators under certain topologies. Their importance is made clear by the representation theory of abstract locally convex quasi C*-normed *-algebras, investigated in previous papers and whose basic aspects are also overviewed here.
On the number of constituents of products of characters
2022
It has been conjectured that if the number of distinct irreducible constituents of the product of two faithful irreducible characters of a finite p-group, for p ≥ 5, is bigger than (p + 1)/2, then it is at least p. We give a counterexample to this conjecture.
Varieties of Codes and Kraft Inequality
2007
Decipherability conditions for codes are investigated by using the approach of Guzman, who introduced in [7] the notion of variety of codes and established a connection between classes of codes and varieties of monoids. The class of Uniquely Decipherable (UD) codes is a special case of variety of codes, corresponding to the variety of all monoids. It is well known that the Kraft inequality is a necessary condition for UD codes, but it is not sufficient, in the sense that there exist codes that are not UD and that satisfy the Kraft inequality. The main result of the present paper states that, given a variety V of codes, if all the elements of V satisfy the Kraft inequality, then V is the var…
Varieties of Codes and Kraft Inequality
2005
Decipherability conditions for codes are investigated by using the approach of Guzman, who introduced in [7] the notion of variety of codes and established a connection between classes of codes and varieties of monoids. The class of Uniquely Decipherable (UD) codes is a special case of variety of codes, corresponding to the variety of all monoids. It is well known that the Kraft inequality is a necessary condition for UD codes, but it is not sufficient, in the sense that there exist codes that are not UD and that satisfy the Kraft inequality. The main result of the present paper states that, given a variety $\mathcal{V}$ of codes, if all the elements of $\mathcal{V}$ satisfy the Kraft inequ…
Invariant characters and coprime actions on finite nilpotent groups
2000
Suppose that a group A acts via automorphisms on a nilpotent group G having coprime order. Given an A-invariant character \(\chi \in {\rm Irr}(G)\), we show that the A-primitive irreducible characters that induce \(\chi \) from an A-invariant subgroup of G all have equal degree. We use this result to obtain some information about the characters of groups of p-length 1.
Defining relations of minimal degree of the trace algebra of 3×3 matrices
2008
Abstract The trace algebra C n d over a field of characteristic 0 is generated by all traces of products of d generic n × n matrices, n , d ⩾ 2 . Minimal sets of generators of C n d are known for n = 2 and n = 3 for any d as well as for n = 4 and n = 5 and d = 2 . The defining relations between the generators are found for n = 2 and any d and for n = 3 , d = 2 only. Starting with the generating set of C 3 d given by Abeasis and Pittaluga in 1989, we have shown that the minimal degree of the set of defining relations of C 3 d is equal to 7 for any d ⩾ 3 . We have determined all relations of minimal degree. For d = 3 we have also found the defining relations of degree 8. The proofs are based …
Universal Lyndon Words
2014
A word w over an alphabet Σ is a Lyndon word if there exists an order defined on Σ for which w is lexicographically smaller than all of its conjugates (other than itself). We introduce and study universal Lyndon words, which are words over an n-letter alphabet that have length n! and such that all the conjugates are Lyndon words. We show that universal Lyndon words exist for every n and exhibit combinatorial and structural properties of these words. We then define particular prefix codes, which we call Hamiltonian lex-codes, and show that every Hamiltonian lex-code is in bijection with the set of the shortest unrepeated prefixes of the conjugates of a universal Lyndon word. This allows us t…
Absolutely Convergent Extensions of Nonclosable Positive Linear Functionals
2010
The existence of extensions of a positive linear functional ω defined on a dense *-subalgebra \({\mathfrak{A}_0}\) of a topological *-algebra \({\mathfrak{A}}\), satisfying certain regularity conditions, is examined. The main interest is focused on the case where ω is nonclosable and sufficient conditions for the existence of an absolutely convergent extension of ω are given.

2007
We consider mutually permutable products G = AB of two nilpotent groups. The structure of the Sylow p-subgroups of its nilpotent residual is described.
