AbstractA tensegrity is a structure made from cables, struts, and stiff bars. A d-dimensional tensegrity is universally rigid if it is rigid in any dimension $$d'$$ d ′ with $$d'\ge d$$ d ′ ≥ d . The celebrated super stability condition due to Connelly gives a sufficient condition for a tensegrity to be universally rigid. Gortler and Thurston showed that super stability characterizes universal rigidity when the point configuration is generic and every member is a stiff bar. We extend this result in two directions. We first show that a generic universally rigid tensegrity is super stable. We then extend it to tensegrities with point group symmetry, and show that this characterization still holds as long as a tensegrity is generic modulo symmetry. Our strategy is based on the block-diagonalization technique for symmetric semidefinite programming problems, and our proof relies on the theory of real irreducible representations of finite groups.

Representations Of Finite Groups

We consider the arithmetic of integral representations of finite groups over algebraic integers and the generalization of globally irreducible representations introduced by Van Oystaeyen and Zalesskii. For the ring of integers [Formula: see text] of an algebraic number field [Formula: see text] we are interested in the question: what are the conditions for subgroups [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text], the [Formula: see text]-span of [Formula: see text], coincides with [Formula: see text], the ring of [Formula: see text]-matrices over [Formula: see text], and what are the minimal realization fields.
