Abstract

The determinant of a finite semigroup is closely related to the Frobenius property of its corresponding semigroup algebra, and it plays a significant role in coding theory applications. In this paper, we study determinants of twisted contracted semigroup algebras over finite fields. We extend Steinberg's determinant theory to this setting by establishing a Frobenius criterion for twisted contracted semigroup algebras over finite fields. We also develop a structural theory for two-generated twisted contracted monoid algebras. In particular, we identify classes for which the determinant of the associated matrix depends only on its zero--nonzero pattern, and is therefore independent of the values of the cocycle. Consequently, it suffices to verify the determinant condition for the trivial character, from which the corresponding result for all characters follows. Under suitable assumptions, these semigroups are completely determined by a small set of defining identities. Motivated by the character-theoretic construction of homogeneous weights on finite Frobenius rings, we construct homogeneous weights for Frobenius twisted contracted semigroup algebras and investigate the non-Frobenius case. In particular, we characterize the principal ideals on which the character-average weight satisfies the averaging property of homogeneous weights and thereby extend the classical notion of homogeneous weight to a prescribed family of principal ideals.

A local relative trace formula for F*\SL(2,F)

In this note, we derive explicitly the local relative trace formula for the symmetric space F*\SL(2,F) at the level of Lie algebras, where F is a p-adic field of residue characteristic greater than two and F* is the set of invertible elements in F. This is perhaps one of the simplest non-trivial analogs of the trace formula, and also a motivating example for the author's work (in preparation) on the relative trace formula.

Semi-infinite parabolic IC-sheaf

Let G be a connected reductive group, P its parabolic subgroup. We consider the parabolic semi-infinite category of sheaves on the affine Grassmanian of G and construct the parabolic version of the semi-infinite IC-sheaf of each orbit. We establish some of its properties and relate it to sheaves on the Drinfeld compactification of the moduli stack Bun_P of P-torsors on a curve. We also relate the parabolic semi-infinite IC-sheaf with the dual baby Verma object on the spectral side.

The Grothendieck group of an extriangulated category

In this paper, we investigate the split Grothendieck group $K^{\rm sp}_{0}(\mathcal{M})$ of a $d$-rigid subcategory $\mathcal{M}$ in an extriangulated category $\mathscr{C}$. As applications, we prove the following results: (1) If $\mathcal{M}$ is a silting subcategory, then the Grothendieck group $K_{0}(\mathscr{C})$ is isomorphic to $K_{0}^{\rm sp}(\mathcal{M})$; (2) If $\mathcal{M}$ is a $d$-cluster tilting subcategory, then $K_{0}(\mathscr{C})$ is isomorphic to the index Grothendieck group $K_{0}^{\rm in}(\mathcal{M})$; (3) Let $\mathcal{C}_{A_{n}}^{d}$ be the $d$-cluster category of type $A_n$. If $d$ is even, then $K_0(\mathcal{C}_{A_{n}}^{d})\cong \mathbb{Z}/(n+1)\mathbb{Z}$. If $d$ is odd, then $K_0(\mathcal{C}_{A_{n}}^{d})\cong \mathbb{Z}$ if $n$ is odd; $K_0(\mathcal{C}_{A_{n}}^{d})\cong 0$ if $n$ is even.
