A theory of infinite spanning sets and bases is developed for the first-order flex space of an infinite bar-joint framework, together with space group symmetric versions for a crystallographic bar-joint framework ${{\mathcal {C}}}$. The existence of a crystal flex basis for ${{\mathcal {C}}}$ is shown to be closely related to the spectral analysis of the rigid unit mode (RUM) spectrum of ${{\mathcal {C}}}$ and an associated geometric flex spectrum. Additionally, infinite spanning sets and bases are computed for a range of fundamental crystallographic bar-joint frameworks, including the honeycomb (graphene) framework, the octahedron (perovskite) framework and the 2D and 3D kagome frameworks.

We study the invariance of KMS states on graph $C^{\ast }$-algebras coming from strongly connected and circulant graphs under the classical and quantum symmetry of the graphs. We show that the unique KMS state for strongly connected graphs is invariant under the quantum automorphism group of the graph. For circulant graphs, it is shown that the action of classical and quantum automorphism groups preserves only one of the KMS states occurring at the critical inverse temperature. We also give an example of a graph $C^{\ast }$-algebra having more than one KMS state such that all of them are invariant under the action of classical automorphism group of the graph, but there is a unique KMS state which is invariant under the action of quantum automorphism group of the graph.

In this short article, we will be principally investigating two classes of modules over any given group ring – the class of Gorenstein projectives and the class of Benson's cofibrants. We begin by studying various properties of these two classes and studying some of these properties comparatively against each other. There is a conjecture made by Fotini Dembegioti and Olympia Talelli that these two classes should coincide over the integral group ring for any group. We make this conjecture over group rings over commutative rings of finite global dimension and prove it for some classes of groups while also proving other related results involving the two classes of modules mentioned.

We consider Akbarov's holomorphic version of the non-commutative Pontryagin duality for a complex Lie group. We prove, under the assumption that $G$ is a Stein group with finitely many components, that (1) the topological Hopf algebra of holomorphic functions on $G$ is holomorphically reflexive if and only if $G$ is linear; (2) the dual cocommutative topological Hopf algebra of exponential analytic functional on $G$ is holomorphically reflexive. We give a counterexample, which shows that the first criterion cannot be extended to the case of infinitely many components. Nevertheless, we conjecture that, in general, the question can be solved in terms of the Banach-algebra linearity of $G$.

We study the structure and compute the stable rank of $C^{*}$-algebras of finite higher-rank graphs. We completely determine the stable rank of the $C^{*}$-algebra when the $k$-graph either contains no cycle with an entrance or is cofinal. We also determine exactly which finite, locally convex $k$-graphs yield unital stably finite $C^{*}$-algebras. We give several examples to illustrate our results.

We call a semigroup $S$weakly right noetherian if every right ideal of $S$ is finitely generated; equivalently, $S$ satisfies the ascending chain condition on right ideals. We provide an equivalent formulation of the property of being weakly right noetherian in terms of principal right ideals, and we also characterize weakly right noetherian monoids in terms of their acts. We investigate the behaviour of the property of being weakly right noetherian under quotients, subsemigroups and various semigroup-theoretic constructions. In particular, we find necessary and sufficient conditions for the direct product of two semigroups to be weakly right noetherian. We characterize weakly right noetherian regular semigroups in terms of their idempotents. We also find necessary and sufficient conditions for a strong semilattice of completely simple semigroups to be weakly right noetherian. Finally, we prove that a commutative semigroup $S$ with finitely many archimedean components is weakly (right) noetherian if and only if $S/\mathcal {H}$ is finitely generated.

This article is about Lehn–Lehn–Sorger–van Straten eightfolds $Z$ and their anti-symplectic involution $\iota$. When $Z$ is birational to the Hilbert scheme of points on a K3 surface, we give an explicit formula for the action of $\iota$ on the Chow group of $0$-cycles of $Z$. The formula is in agreement with the Bloch–Beilinson conjectures and has some non-trivial consequences for the Chow ring of the quotient.

Let $G$ be a finite group with cyclic Sylow $p$-subgroups, and let $k$ be a field of characteristic $p$. Then $H^{*}(BG;k)$ and $H_*(\Omega BG{{}^{{}^{\wedge }}_p};k)$ are $A_\infty$ algebras whose structure we determine up to quasi-isomorphism.

We generalize results of Thomas, Allcock, Thom–Petersen, and Kar–Niblo to the first $\ell ^{2}$-Betti number of quotients of certain groups acting on trees by subgroups with free actions on the edge sets of the graphs.

We study the fundamental groups of the complements to curves on simply connected surfaces, admitting non-abelian free groups as their quotients. We show that given a subset of the Néron–Severi group of such a surface, there are only finitely many classes of equisingular isotopy of curves with irreducible components belonging to this subset for which the fundamental groups of the complement admit surjections onto a free group of a given sufficiently large rank. Examples of subsets of the Néron–Severi group are given with infinitely many isotopy classes of curves with irreducible components from such a subset and fundamental groups of the complements admitting surjections on a free group only of a small rank.

Extriangulated categories were introduced by Nakaoka and Palu to give a unification of properties in exact categories and extension-closed subcategories of triangulated categories. A notion of tilting pairs in an extriangulated category is introduced in this paper. We give a Bazzoni characterization of tilting pairs in this setting. We also obtain the Auslander–Reiten correspondence of tilting pairs which classifies finite $\mathcal {C}$-tilting subcategories for a certain self-orthogonal subcategory $\mathcal {C}$ with some assumptions. This generalizes the known results given by Wei and Xi for the categories of finitely generated modules over Artin algebras, thereby providing new insights in exact and triangulated categories.

In this article, we prove a local implication of boundedness of Fano varieties. More precisely, we prove that $d$-dimensional $a$-log canonical singularities with standard coefficients, which admit an $\epsilon$-plt blow-up, have minimal log discrepancies belonging to a finite set which only depends on $d,\,a$ and $\epsilon$. This result gives a natural geometric stratification of the possible mld's in a fixed dimension by finite sets. As an application, we prove the ascending chain condition for minimal log discrepancies of exceptional singularities. We also introduce an invariant for klt singularities related to the total discrepancy of Kollár components.

This paper establishes the mapping properties of pseudo-differential operators and the Fourier integral operators on the weighted Morrey spaces with variable exponents and the weighted Triebel–Lizorkin–Morrey spaces with variable exponents. We obtain these results by extending the extrapolation theory to the weighted Morrey spaces with variable exponents. This extension also gives the mapping properties of Calderón–Zygmund operators on the weighted Hardy–Morrey spaces with variable exponents and the wavelet characterizations of the weighted Hardy–Morrey spaces with variable exponents.

It is known that a polynomial local diffeomorphism $(f,\, g): {\mathbb {R}}^{2} \to {\mathbb {R}}^{2}$ is a global diffeomorphism provided the higher homogeneous terms of $f f_x+g g_x$ and $f f_y+g g_y$ do not have real linear factors in common. Here, we give a weight-homogeneous framework of this result. Our approach uses qualitative theory of differential equations. In our reasoning, we obtain a result on polynomial Hamiltonian vector fields in the plane, generalization of a known fact.
