AbstractWe give the equations of the n-th symmetric product $$X^n/S_n$$ X n / S n of a flat affine scheme $$X=\mathrm {Spec}\,A$$ X = Spec A over a commutative ring F. As a consequence, we find a closed immersion into the coarse moduli space parameterizing n-dimensional linear representations of A. This is done by exhibiting an isomorphism between the ring of symmetric tensors over A and the ring generated by the coefficients of the characteristic polynomial of polynomials in commuting generic matrices giving representations of A. Using this we derive an isomorphism of the associated reduced schemes over an infinite field. When the characteristic is zero we show that this isomorphism is an isomorphism of schemes and we express it in term of traces.

In this paper we investigate the quantum cohomologies of symmetric products of Kähler manifolds. To do this we study the moduli space of product space and symmetric group action on it, Gromov–Witten invariant and relative Gromov–Witten invariant. Also we investigate the relations between symmetric invariant properties on the products space and the corresponding ones on the symmetric product. As an example we examine the symmetric product of k copies complex projective line ℙ1, which is the k-dimensional complex projective space ℙk.

We consider the algebra of invariants of [Formula: see text]-tuples of [Formula: see text] matrices under the action of the orthogonal group by simultaneous conjugation over an infinite field of characteristic [Formula: see text] different from two. It is well known that this algebra is generated by the coefficients of the characteristic polynomial of all products of generic and transpose generic [Formula: see text] matrices. We establish that in case [Formula: see text] the maximal degree of indecomposable invariants tends to infinity as [Formula: see text] tends to infinity. In other words, there does not exist a constant [Formula: see text] such that it only depends on [Formula: see text] and the considered algebra of invariants is generated by elements of degree less than [Formula: see text] for any [Formula: see text]. This result is well-known in case of the action of the general linear group. On the other hand, for the rest of [Formula: see text] the given phenomenon does not hold. We investigate the same problem for the cases of symmetric and skew-symmetric matrices.

For a hypergraph ${\cal H} = (V,{\cal E})$, its $d$–fold symmetric product is defined to be $\Delta^d {\cal H} = (V^d,\{E^d |E \in {\cal E}\})$. We give several upper and lower bounds for the $c$-color discrepancy of such products. In particular, we show that the bound ${\rm disc}(\Delta^d {\cal H},2) \le {\rm disc}({\cal H},2)$ proven for all $d$ in [B. Doerr, A. Srivastav, and P. Wehr, Discrepancy of Cartesian products of arithmetic progressions, Electron. J. Combin. 11(2004), Research Paper 5, 16 pp.] cannot be extended to more than $c = 2$ colors. In fact, for any $c$ and $d$ such that $c$ does not divide $d!$, there are hypergraphs having arbitrary large discrepancy and ${\rm disc}(\Delta^d {\cal H},c) = \Omega_d({\rm disc}({\cal H},c)^d)$. Apart from constant factors (depending on $c$ and $d$), in these cases the symmetric product behaves no better than the general direct product ${\cal H}^d$, which satisfies ${\rm disc}({\cal H}^d,c) = O_{c,d}({\rm disc}({\cal H},c)^d)$.

Let X be a topological space. For any positive integer n , we consider the n -fold symmetric product of X , ℱ n ( X ), consisting of all nonempty subsets of X with at most n points; and for a given function ƒ : X → X , we consider the induced functions ℱ n ( ƒ ): ℱ n ( X ) → ℱ n ( X ). Let M be one of the following classes of functions: exact, transitive, ℤ-transitive, ℤ + -transitive, mixing, weakly mixing, chaotic, turbulent, strongly transitive, totally transitive, orbit-transitive, strictly orbit-transitive, ω-transitive, minimal, I N, T T ++ , semi-open and irreducible. In this paper we study the relationship between the following statements: ƒ ∈ M and ℱ n ( ƒ ) ∈ M .

A wedge of k circles is homotopy equivalent to the plane with k points removed. By looking at [Formula: see text]∖{w1, …, wk} instead of ⋁k S1, we could view the symmetric product of a wedge of k circles as [Formula: see text], the complement space [3] of a hyperplane arrangement, [Formula: see text]. Applying a theorem of Hattori [2], we see that if k > n, the symmetric product of ⋁k S1 is, up to homotopy, the union of n-dimensional subtorii in a k-torus.

We construct new examples of Kobayashi hyperbolic hypersurfaces in ℙ4. They are generic projections of the triple symmetric product V = C (3) of a generic genus g ≥ 6 curve C, smoothly embedded in ℙ7.

Abstract The geometry of divisors on algebraic curves has been studied extensively over the years. The foundational results of this Brill-Noether theory imply that on a general curve, the spaces parametrizing linear series (of fixed degree and dimension) are smooth, irreducible projective varieties of known dimension. For higher dimensional varieties, the story is less well understood. Our purpose in this paper is to study in detail one class of higher dimensional examples where one can hope for a quite detailed picture, namely (the spaces parametrizing) divisors on the symmetric product of a curve.

In this note, we deduce a partial answer to the question in the title. In particular, we show that asymptotically almost all bi-Perron algebraic units whose characteristic polynomial has degree at most $2n$ do not correspond to dilatations of pseudo-Anosov maps on a closed orientable surface of genus $n$ for $n\geq 10$. As an application of the argument, we also obtain a statement on the number of closed geodesics of the same length in the moduli space of area-one abelian differentials for low-genus cases.

The nth symmetric product of a topological space, X, is defined to be the quotient of the Cartesian product Xn by the action of the symmetric group which permutes the factors. Even if X is a manifold, this product is, in general, not a manifold. The purpose of this note is to determine these products when X is the circle, S1, and to show that they are manifolds with boundary.
