Algebraic characterizations of the algebra of functions and of the Lie algebra of vector fields of a manifold
We study algebraic loop groups and affine Grassmannians in positive characteristic. The main results are normality of Schubert-varieties, the construction of line-bundles on the affine Grassmannian, and the proof that they induce line-bundles on the moduli-stack of torsors.
Step nesting designs may be very useful since they require fewer observations than the usual balanced nesting models. The number of treatments in balanced nesting design is the product of the number of levels in each factor. This number may be too large. As an alternative, in step nesting designs the number of treatments is the sum of the factor levels. Thus these models lead to a great economy and it is easy to carry out inference. To study the algebraic structure of step nesting designs we introduce...
Une structure unimodulaire est définie sur une variété différentiable par une forme élément de volume. Différentes algèbres de Lie de dimension infinie attachées à une variété unimodulaire sont introduites et leurs idéaux étudiés. Ces idéaux sont semi-simples et de dimension infinie ; aucun idéal non trivial n’admet un idéal supplémentaire. Les dérivations de ces algèbres de Lie sont données par l’algèbre des champs de vecteurs reproduisant la forme de structure à un facteur constant près.
We show that some iterated Ore extensions have the same behaviour with respect to injective resolutions as Gorenstein commutative rings.
By using an invariant related to free Lie algebras, we give a criterion of non existence of isomorphism for the Pfaffian systems.
