### maximal elementary abelian p-subgroups of finite groups of Lie type

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic $p$. Let $G(\mathbb{F}_{p^r})$ be the corresponding finite group of Lie type. Is it true that every maximal ...

### If two knots in $S^3$ are invertible cobordant (from both ends), are they equivalent?

Let $K_1,K_2$ be two knots in $S^3$ and assume that there exists a cobordism $(W;K_1,K_2)$ which is invertible from both ends. Does this imply that $K_1, K_2$ are equivalent? In the paper by D.W. ...

### Parallel algorithm for modular multiplication of polynomials over Z/nZ

Is there a parallel algorithm for doing modular multiplication of polynomials over Z/nZ? n is a very large number (for hundreds and thousands of bits). Normally, the method used is binary ...

### Weighted Permutation Sum

I am trying to find out a closed-form formula (or a generating function at least) for the number of permutations $\sigma$ that satisfy $$S = \sum_{i = 1}^{n} i\sigma(i)$$ for a given value of $S$. We ...

### On the relationship between the factorizations of an operator $T$ and its second adjoint $T^{**}$

Let $T$ be an operator from a space $X$ into a space $Y$ and let $1\leq p<\infty$. If $T^{**}$ has a factorization $T^{**}=RS:X^{**}\xrightarrow{S} l_{p}\xrightarrow{R}Y^{**}$, where $S$ is compact ...

### Fundamental class in $KO[1/2]$

Let $M^m$ be an oriented Riemannian manifold. The signature operator associates to $M$ a class $\Delta_M\in KO_m(M)[1/2]$. I have two questions about this class $\Delta_M$: Rationally, $\Delta_M$ is ...

### Why is a weakly dominated strategy never played in a mixed strategy equilibrium? [on hold]

I'm having trouble proving that a weakly dominated strategy can never be played in a mixed strategy equilibrium. I have an idea that it can be proven by contradiction, using the definition of best ...

### Post composition of integral

Setup: If $\langle \Omega, \mathfrak{F},\mu \rangle$ is a measure space, $f:\Omega \rightarrow E$ is a weakly-measurable function to a Banach space $E$, $g: E \rightarrow E'$ is a diffeomorphism and ...

### An extreme of Jacobi elliptic function on an interval

Consider the Jacobi elliptic function $sn(\cdot,k)$ restricted to the interval $(0,2K)$, where $K=K(k)$ is complete elliptic integral of the first kind. If $0<k<1$, then it is well known the ...

### Smooth complete intersections and sharpness of the Chevalley-Warning theorem

Let $X$ be a complete intersection in $\mathbb{P}^n$ of multidegree $(d_1,\ldots,d_r)$. If we're working over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, the Ax-Chevalley-Warning theorem says that if $X$ is in the ...

### Convex embedding with a positivity condition

We have a $n$-dimensional hypersurface $\Sigma$ embedded in the Euclidean $(n+1)$-space $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$. We know that $\Sigma$ is compact without boundary, convex (not necessarly strictly convex), ...

### associativity of the extension of finie groups

Following my previous question I have two questions: 1.the extensions of the group is associative or not, i.e. as we know by the notations of atlas if $S={\rm PSL}(2,q)$, where $q=p^f>9$, then ...

### Equivariant isometric embedding of manifolds in a Hilbert space under a noncompact group action

Given a Riemannian manifold $M$ and a group of isometries $G$ of $M$, I am interested in when there exists a isometric embedding $\iota : M \to H$, where $H$ is a Hilbert space and a representation ...

### Closeness graph of a topological space

Let $(X,\tau)$ be a topological space. We say that $x, y \in X$ are close if for every neighborhood $U$ of $x$ and $V$ of $y$ we have $U\cap V \neq \emptyset$. Let $E$ be the set of $\{x,y\}$ where ...
