Normality, Projective Normality and Egz Theorem

In this note, we prove that the projective normality of (P(V )/G,L), the celebrated theorem of Erdös-Ginzburg-Ziv and normality of an affine semigroup are all equivalent, where V is a finite dimensional representation of a finite cyclic group G over C and L is the descent of the line bundle O(1)⊗|G|.

Current work in Sheffield focuses on the use of information and communications technologies (ICTs) in universities and schools, seeking to understand the effects of u...

From Democratic Peace to Democratic War?

The “democratic peace” is not only a fancy idea of academia, most prominently advanced by the philosopher of Enlightenment Immanuel Kant in his famous essay on “Perpetual Peace” (1795), but two hundred years later, is established as a liberal research program in the U.S. International Relations discipline.
