A set of quasi-uniform random variables X1, . . . , Xn may be generated from a finite group G and n of its subgroups, with the corresponding entropic vector depending on the subgroup structure of G. It is known that the set of entropic vectors obtained by considering arbitrary finite groups is much richer than the one provided just by abelian groups. In this paper, we start to investigate in mo...

We prove a strong form of the Brumer–Stark Conjecture and, as a consequence, a strong form of Rubin’s integral refinement of the abelian Stark Conjecture, for a large class of abelian extensions of an arbitrary characteristic p global field k. This class includes all the abelian extensions K/k contained in the compositum kp∞ := kp · k∞ of the maximal pro-p abelian extension kp/k and the maximal...

In this article we study locally compact abelian (LCA) groups from the viewpoint of derived categories, using that their category is quasi-abelian in the sense of J.-P. Schneiders. We define a well-behaved derived Hom-complex with values in the derived category of Hausdorff topological abelian groups. Furthermore we introduce a smallness condition for LCA groups and show that such groups have a...

We study -length Abelian codes over Galois rings with characteristic , where and are relatively prime, having the additional structure of being closed under the following two permutations: i) permutation effected by multiplying the coordinates with a unit in the appropriate mixed-radix representation of the coordinate positions and ii) shifting the coordinates by positions. A code is -quasi-cyc...

In this review we discuss a technique to compute and to sum a class of Feynman diagrams, and some of its applications. These are diagrams containing one or more energetic particles that suffer very little recoil in their interactions. When recoil is completely neglected, a decomposition formula can be proven. This formula is a generalization of the well-known eikonal formula, to non-abelian int...
