Denote the falling factorials by $(x)_k=x(x-1)\cdots(x-k+1)$. The Vandermonde determinant is given by $\det\left[x_i^{j-1}\right]_1^n=\prod_{i<j}(x_j-x_i)$. It is well-known that in as much as ...

Assume that you are explicitly given the representation matrices of a group. How does one go about finding that common basis which will find the irreducible components of all of them simultaneously? ...

Let $I$ an ideal of $\mathbb{C}[X_1, \ldots X_n]$ and define the arithmetical rank of $I$ as: $$ ark(I) = \textrm{min} \left\{m \in \mathbb{N}, \exists f_1, \ldots, f_m \in \mathbb{C}[X_1, \ldots X_n]...
