Cyclotomic Carter-payne Homomorphisms

We construct a new family of homomorphisms between (graded) Specht modules of the quiver Hecke algebras of type A. These maps have many similarities with the homomorphisms constructed by Carter and Payne in the special case of the symmetric groups, although the maps that we obtain are both more and less general than these.

The Man in the White Suit, dir

The Man in the White Suit (TMITWS) is rarely mentioned in relation to design practice, beyond its relevance to “smart fabrics,” but every design professional should see this cautionary tale of an individual battling an industry. [1] The film‟s obsessive protagonist, Sidney Stratton (Alec Guinness) works as a cleaner at Corland textile mill while secretly pursuing chemical experiments. Upon disc...

Carter–Payne homomorphisms and Jantzen filtrations

We prove a q-analogue of the Carter–Payne theorem in the case where the differences between the parts of the partitions are sufficiently large. We identify a layer of the Jantzen filtration which contains the image of these Carter–Payne homomorphisms and we show how these homomorphisms compose.

The Payne Effect for Particle-Reinforced Elastomers

The study deals with the Payne effect (a substantial decrease in the storage modulus of a particle-reinforced elastomer with an increase in the amplitude of mechanical oscillations). The influence of temperature, concentration of filler and amplitude and frequency of strains is analyzed on the mechanical response of filled rubbery polymers. Constitutive equations are derived using the concept o...
