Let G be an affine reductive algebraic group over an algebraically closed field k. We determine the Picard group of the moduli stacks of principal G-bundles on any smooth projective curve over k.

We show that two Weyl group actions on the Springer sheaf with arbitrary coefficients, one defined by Fourier transform and one by restriction, agree up to a twist by the sign character. This generalizes a familiar result from the setting…

In this paper, the changes of representations of a group are used in order to describe its action as algebraic Galois group of an univariate polynomial on the roots of factors of any Lagrange resolvent. By this way, the Galois group of…

By an additive action on an algebraic variety $X$ we mean a regular effective action $\mathbb{G}_a^n\times X\to X$ with an open orbit of the commutative unipotent group $\mathbb{G}_a^n$. In this paper, we give a classification of additive…

We provide new examples of acylindrically hyperbolic groups arising from actions on simplicial trees. In particular, we consider amalgamated products and HNN-extensions, 1-relator groups, automorphism groups of polynomial algebras,…

Given an odd representation of the absolute Galois group of Q onto PGL(2,3) and a positive integer N, there exists a twisted modular curve defined over Q whose rational points classify the quadratic Q-curves of degree N realizing the…

We introduce the notion of the action of a group on a labeled graph and the quotient object, also a labeled graph. We define a skew product labeled graph and use it to prove a version of the Gross-Tucker theorem for labeled graphs. We then…

We attempt to develop a general algebro-geometric study of the moduli stack of commutative, 1-parameter formal Lie groups. We emphasize the pro-algebraic structure of this stack: it is the inverse limit, over varying n, of moduli stacks of…

In this paper, we describe Galois covers of algebraic curves and their families by using local systems associated to push-forward of sheaves by the structure morphism. More precisely, if $f:C\to Y$, we consider the sheaves $f_*(\C)$. The…

A Gelfand model for a semisimple algebra A over C is a complex linear representation that contains each irreducible representation of A with multiplicity exactly one. We give a method of constructing these models that works uniformly for a…

Let g be a complex simple Lie algebra and Uq(Lg) its quantum loop algebra, where q is not a root of unity. We give an explicit formula for the quantum Weyl group action of the coroot lattice Q of g on finite-dimensional representations of…

It is shown that for any action of a finitely presented group $G$ on an $\R$-tree, there is a decomposition of $G$ as the fundamental group of a graph of groups related to this action. If the action of $G$ on $T$ is non-trivial, i.e. there…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group acting faithfully on ${\mathbb C}{\mathbb P}^1$ via holomorphic automorphisms. In \cite{DF2} the $G$--equivariant algebraic vector bundles on $G$--invariant affine open subsets of ${\mathbb C}{\mathbb P}^1$…

We prove that the Brauer group of the moduli stack of parabolic stable principal $\text{PGL}(r,\mathbb{C})$-bundles on a curve $X$, for a generic system of weights along an arbitrary parabolic divisor, coincides with the Brauer group of the…

We study extension properties for morphisms of stacks of bundles for group algebraic spaces. Applications are a short proof of the classification of bundles on the projective line for smooth geometrically reductive groups and the existence…

Approximation theorems for algebraic stacks over a number field $k$ are studied in this article. For G a connected linear algebraic group over a number field we prove strong approximation with Brauer-Manin obstruction for the classifying…

We define a kind of 'operational calculus' for $GL_2(R)$. Namely, the group $GL_2(R)$ can be regarded as an open dense chart in the Grassmannian of 2-dimensional subspaces in $R^4$. Therefore the group $GL_4(R)$ acts in $L^2$ on $GL_2(R)$.…

In their celebrated paper of 1976, Rothschild and Stein prove a lifting procedure that locally reduces to a free nilpotent Lie algebra any family of smooth vector fields $X_1,\dots,X_q$, over a manifold $M$. Then, a large class of…

We study generalized group actions on differentiable manifolds in the Colombeau framework, extending previous work on flows of generalized vector fields and symmetry group analysis of generalized solutions. As an application, we analyze…

Questions of the following sort are addressed: Does a given Lie group or Lie algebra act effectively on a given manifold? How smooth can such actions be? What fxed-point sets are possible? What happens under perturbations? Old results are…
