This paper is tightly connected with the book [Varieties of Group Representations. General Theory, Connections and Applications (Zinatne, Riga, 1983) (in Russian)]. In the paper we prove new results in the spirit of the above-mentioned book. They are related to dimension subgroups, varieties of representations of groups and varieties of associative algebras. The main emphasis is put on the varieties of representations of groups induced by the varieties of associative algebras. We provide the reader with the list of open problems. For many reasons we consciously included in the text a brief review of the basic definitions and results from the theory of varieties of representations described in the book [Varieties of Group Representations. General Theory, Connections and Applications].

Transitive group representations have their analogue for inverse semigroups as discovered by Schein [7]. The right cosets in the group case find their counterpart in the right ω-cosets and the symmetric inverse semigroup plays the role of the symmetric group. The general theory developed by Schein admits a special case discovered independently by Ponizovskiǐ [4] and Reilly [5]. For a discussion of this topic, see [1, §7.3] and [2, Chapter IV].

Let [Formula: see text] be a commutative ring and [Formula: see text] an [Formula: see text]-algebra. An [Formula: see text]-[Formula: see text]-derivation of [Formula: see text] is an [Formula: see text]-linear map of the form [Formula: see text] for some [Formula: see text]-algebra endomorphism [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] denotes the identity map of [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we discuss some open problems on whether or not the image of a locally finite (LF) [Formula: see text]-derivation or [Formula: see text]-[Formula: see text]-derivation of [Formula: see text] is a Mathieu subspace [W. Zhao, Generalizations of the image conjecture and the Mathieu conjecture, J. Pure Appl. Algebra 214 (2010) 1200–1216; Mathieu subspaces of associative algebras, J. Algebra 350(2) (2012) 245–272] of [Formula: see text], and whether or not a locally nilpotent (LN) [Formula: see text]-derivation or [Formula: see text]-[Formula: see text]-derivation of [Formula: see text] maps every ideal of [Formula: see text] to a Mathieu subspace of [Formula: see text]. We propose and discuss two conjectures which state that both questions above have positive answers if the base ring [Formula: see text] is a field of characteristic zero. We give some examples to show the necessity of the conditions of the two conjectures, and discuss some positive cases known in the literature. We also show some cases of the two conjectures. In particular, both the conjectures are proved for LF or LN algebraic derivations and [Formula: see text]-[Formula: see text]-derivations of integral domains of characteristic zero.

AbstractAs a general theory of extreme self-sacrifice, Whitehouse's article misses one relevant dimension: people's willingness to fight and die in support of entities not bound by biological markers or ancestral kinship (allyship). We discuss research on moral expansiveness, which highlights individuals’ capacity to self-sacrifice for targets that lie outside traditional in-group markers, including racial out-groups, animals, and the natural environment.
