We show how to use Jantzen’s sum formula for Weyl modules to prove semisimplicity criteria for endomorphism algebras of $\mathbf{U}_{q}$-tilting modules (for any field $\mathbb{K}$ and any parameter $q\in \mathbb{K}-\{0,-1\}$). As an application, we recover the semisimplicity criteria for the Hecke algebras of types $\mathbf{A}$ and $\mathbf{B}$, the walled Brauer algebras and the Brauer algebras from our more general approach.

In this paper, we establish new characterization results concerning totally umbilical hypersurfaces of the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^{n+1}$, under suitable constraints on the behavior of the Lorentzian Gauss map of complete hypersurfaces having some constant higher order mean curvature. Furthermore, working with different warped product models for $\mathbb{H}^{n+1}$ and supposing that certain natural inequalities involving two consecutive higher order mean curvature functions are satisfied, we study the rigidity and the nonexistence of complete hypersurfaces immersed in $\mathbb{H}^{n+1}$.

The main purpose of this paper is to investigate the behaviour of uncountable groups of cardinality $\aleph$ in which all proper subgroups of cardinality $\aleph$ are nilpotent. It is proved that such a group $G$ is nilpotent, provided that $G$ has no infinite simple homomorphic images and either $\aleph$ has cofinality strictly larger than $\aleph _{0}$ or the generalized continuum hypothesis is assumed to hold. Furthermore, groups whose proper subgroups of large cardinality are soluble are studied in the last part of the paper.

In this paper, we generalize monotone operators, their resolvents and the proximal point algorithm to complete CAT(0) spaces. We study some properties of monotone operators and their resolvents. We show that the sequence generated by the inexact proximal point algorithm $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E5}$-converges to a zero of the monotone operator in complete CAT(0) spaces. A strong convergence (convergence in metric) result is also presented. Finally, we consider two important special cases of monotone operators and we prove that they satisfy the range condition (see Section 4 for the definition), which guarantees the existence of the sequence generated by the proximal point algorithm.

The generating graph $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}(H)$ of a finite group $H$ is the graph defined on the elements of $H$, with an edge between two vertices if and only if they generate $H$. We show that if $H$ is a sufficiently large simple group with $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}(G)\cong \unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}(H)$ for a finite group $G$, then $G\cong H$. We also prove that the generating graph of a symmetric group determines the group.

Suppose that the function $f$ is analytic in the open unit disk $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E5}$ in the complex plane. For each $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}>0$ a function $f^{[\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}]}$ is defined as the Hadamard product of $f$ with a certain power function. The function $f^{[\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}]}$ compares with the fractional derivative of $f$ of order $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}$. Suppose that $f^{[\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}]}$ has a limit at some point $z_{0}$ on the boundary of $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E5}$. Then $w_{0}=\lim _{z\rightarrow z_{0}}f(z)$ exists. Suppose that $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6F7}$ is analytic in $f(\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E5})$ and at $w_{0}$. We show that if $g=\unicode[STIX]{x1D6F7}(f)$ then $g^{[\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}]}$ has a limit at $z_{0}$.

In this paper, we investigate regular semigroups that possess a normal idempotent. First, we construct a nonorthodox nonidempotent-generated regular semigroup which has a normal idempotent. Furthermore, normal idempotents are described in several different ways and their properties are discussed. These results enable us to provide conditions under which a regular semigroup having a normal idempotent must be orthodox. Finally, we obtain a simple method for constructing all regular semigroups that contain a normal idempotent.

Poly-Euler numbers are introduced as a generalization of the Euler numbers in a manner similar to the introduction of the poly-Bernoulli numbers. In this paper, some number-theoretic properties of poly-Euler numbers, for example, explicit formulas, a Clausen–von Staudt type formula, congruence relations and duality formulas, are given together with their combinatorial properties.
