Weighted projective spaces and minimal nilpotent orbits

Abstract

We investigate (twisted) rings of differential operators on the resolution of singularities of a particular irreducible component of the (Zarisky) closure of the minimal orbit $\bar O_{\mathrm{min}}$ of $\mathfrak{sp}_{2n}$, intersected with the Borel subalgebra $\mathfrak n_+$ of $\mathfrak{sp}_{2n}$, using toric geometry and show that they are homomorphic images of a subalgebra of the Universal Enveloping Algebra (UEA) of $\mathfrak{sp}_{2n}$, which contains the maximal parabolic subalgebra $\mathfrak p$ determining the minimal nilpotent orbit. Further, using Fourier transforms on Weyl algebras, we show that (twisted) rings of well-suited weighted projective spaces are obtained from the same subalgebra. Finally, investigating this subalgebra from the representation-theoretical point of view, we find new primitive ideals and rediscover old ones for the UEA of $\mathfrak{sp}_{2n}$ coming from the aforementioned resolution of singularities.

Identities Involving Additive Maps on Division Rings

Let $g$ be an additive map on a division ring $D$. In this paper, we study the functional identity $G_{1}(y)g(y)G_{2}(y) = H(y)$, where $G_{1}(Y), G_{2}(Y)$, $H(Y)$ are generalized polynomials in $D_{G}[Y]$ such that both $G_{1}(Y)$ and $G_{2}(Y)$ are non-zero. By application of this result and its implications, we prove that if $D$ is a non-commutative division ring with $\operatorname{char}(D) \neq 2$, then the only possible solution of additive maps $g_{1},g_{2}: D \rightarrow D$ satisfying the identity $g_{1}(y)y^{-m} + y^{n}g_{2}(y^{-1})= 0$ is $ g_{1} = g_{2} = 0$, where $m$ and $n$ are positive integers with $(m,n) \neq (1,1)$.

The art of counterpoint: a Mazzola-type model of three-voice first-species counterpoint

In this paper, we extend Mazzola's model of two-voice counterpoint to three-voice first-species counterpoint. The construction combines a fiber product over a shared lower voice with a harmonic mask and a two-stage maximization defining admitted successors. For the Fuxian dichotomy, we compute the successor relation and investigate connections with the Riemann dichotomy and neo-Riemannian transformations. Among pairs of same-mode triads, the model admits the most transporter realizations exactly at the pairs that generate Mazzola's Riemann monoid, but it does not single out the dominant-tonic pair, and it admits only 12 of the 192 parsimonious neo-Riemannian realizations, largely because it excludes transitions that keep a pair of voices stationary.
