KNOTS WITH UNKNOTTING NUMBER ONE AND GENERALISED CASSON INVARIANT

1996

We extend the classical notion of unknotting operation to include operations on rational tangles. We recall the “classical” conditions (on the signature, linking form etc.) for a knot to have integral (respectively rational) unknotting number one. We show that the generalised Casson invariant of the twofold branched cover of the knot gives a further necessary condition. We apply these results to some Montesinos knots and to knots with less than nine crossings.

Automorphisms of the integral group ring of the hyperoctahedral group

1990

The purpose of this paper is to verify a conjecture of Zassenhaus [3] for hyperoctahedral groups by proving that every normalized automorphism () of ZG can be written in the form () = Tu 0 I where I is an automorphism of ZG obtained by extending an automorphism of G linearly to ZG and u is a unit of (JJG. A similar result was proved for symmetric groups by Peterson in [2]; the reader should consult [3] or the survey [4] for other results of this kind. 1989

Subdirectly irreducible generalized sums of upper semilattice ordered systems of algebras

2002

In [15] the generalized sum of an upper (F 1 , F 2 )-semilattice ordered system of algebras was defined. In this paper we find necessary and sufficient conditions under which this construction yields subdirectly irreducible algebras.

Groups whose subgroups satisfy the weak subnormalizer condition

2019

A subgroup X of a group G is said to satisfy the weak subnormalizer condition if $$N_G(Y)\le N_G(X)$$ for each non-normal subgroup Y of G such that $$X\le Y\le N_G(X)$$ . The behaviour of generalized soluble groups whose (cyclic) subgroups satisfy the weak subnormalizer condition is investigated.

Baer cones in finite projective spaces

1987

Let R and V be two skew subspaces with dimensions r and v of P=PG(d,q). If q is a square, then there is a Baer subspace V* of V, i.e. a subspace of dimension v and order √q. We call the set C(R,V*)=\(\mathop \cup \limits_p \), where the union is taken over all PeV*, aBaer cone oftype (r,v).

On orderability of fibred knot groups

2003

It is known that knot groups are right-orderable, and that many of them are not bi-orderable. Here we show that certain bred knots in S 3 (or in a homology sphere) do have bi-orderable fundamental group. In particular, this holds for bred knots, such as 41, for which the Alexander polynomial has all roots real and positive. This is an application of the construction of orderings of groups, which are moreover invariant with respect to a certain automorphism.

Deuring’s mass formula of a Mumford family

2015

We study the Newton polygon jumping locus of a Mumford family in char p p . Our main result says that, under a mild assumption on p p , the jumping locus consists of only supersingular points and its cardinality is equal to ( p r − 1 ) ( g − 1 ) (p^r-1)(g-1) , where r r is the degree of the defining field of the base curve of a Mumford family in char p p and g g is the genus of the curve. The underlying technique is the p p -adic Hodge theory.

Quasianalytic Denjoy-Carleman classes and o-minimality

2003

We show that the expansion of the real field generated by the functions of a quasianalytic Denjoy-Carleman class is model complete and o-minimal, provided that the class satisfies certain closure conditions. Some of these structures do not admit analytic cell decomposition, and they show that there is no largest o-minimal expansion of the real field.

Bounded Bi-ideals and Linear Recurrence

2013

Bounded bi-ideals are a subclass of uniformly recurrent words. We introduce the notion of completely bounded bi-ideals by imposing a restriction on their generating base sequences. We prove that a bounded bi-ideal is linearly recurrent if and only if it is completely bounded.
