Kobayashi-Nomizu "Foundations of differential geometry" on page 117 wrong?
$\DeclareMathOperator\GL{GL}$Let $M$ be a smooth manifold, $G$ a Lie group and $P(M,G)$ a principal $G$-bundle and $\rho: G \to \GL(V)$ of $G$ a representation with $V$ finite-dimensional $\mathbb{F}$-...

What are all the complex structures on $\mathbb{R}^2$ which live inside $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$? [closed]
By "complex structure" I am referring to 2x2 matrices which square to $-\mathrm{Id}_2$. I need to know those with integer entries and determinant equal to 1.
Thank you

A combinatorial linear programming problem
$\newcommand\S{\mathscr S}$Let $\S$ be a collection of nonempty subsets of a finite set $S$ such that $A\not\subset B$ for any distinct $A$ and $B$ in $\S$.
Does then there always exist a function $f\...

A presentation for the group $GL(n,\mathbb{Z}_p)$
Let $n\ge 2$. Let $p$ be a prime and $\mathbb{Z}_p$ denote the finite field with $p$ elements.
I want to know about the presentation for the group $GL(n,\mathbb{Z}_p)$ consisting of its generators and ...

Quantitative formula for number of invertible square matrices over a finite field? [closed]
Let $M_n(F)$ denote the set of $n\times n$ matrices for a value $n\in \mathbb{N}$ with components in a field $F$ with finite cardinality . Let $$I=\{A\in M_n(F):~~ \det(A) \neq 0 \}.$$ What is the ...

Generic reducedness of geometric generic fibre
Let $f:X\to Y$ be a surjective morphism between two projective schemes over a field of characteristic $p>0$. Also assume that $X$ is smooth,$Y$ smooth & irreducible and $f_*\mathcal{O}_X=\...

Relationships between two stochastic matrices
Consider two $n \times n$ stochastic matrices $A$ and $B$. If for any two probability vectors $x$, $y$ in $R^n$, we have $xA=yA$ implies $xB=yB$, what can we say about the relationship of $A$ and $B$?

p-torsion in the Tate-Shafarevich group of supersingular elliptic curves
Let $E$ be a supersingular elliptic curve over $\mathbb{F}_p(t)$. Is something known on the $p$-torsion of the Tate–Shafarevich group in this case? In particular, I would like to know if (or if known ...

Convergence of $ \vec{x_{n+1}} = A^{-1} f(\vec{x_{n}},\vec{y_{n}}), \:\:\: \vec{y_{n+1}} = A^{-1} g(\vec{x_{n}},\vec{y_{n}}) $ [closed]
I have two systems
$$ A \vec{x} = f(\vec{x}, \vec{y}), \:\:\: A \vec{y} = g(\vec{x}, \vec{y}) $$
Both have the same constant, square, invertible matrix $A$. I implemented an iterative algorithm with ...

Unitaries that setwise fix an algebra under conjugation
Let $M_d(\mathbb{C})$ denote the algebra of $d \times d$ complex matrices. Consider the algebra
$$\mathcal{A} = \bigoplus_{i=1}^r I_{d_i} \otimes M_{d_i}(\mathbb{C})$$
for some choice of $d_1, \ldots, ...
