We discuss rather systematically the principle, implicit in earlier works, that for a "random" element in an arithmetic subgroup of a (split, say) reductive algebraic group over a number field, the splitting field of the characteristic…
This note explains consequences of recent work of Frank Quinn for computations of Nil groups in algebraic K-theory, in particular the Nil groups occurring in the K-theory of polynomial rings, Laurent polynomial rings, and the group ring of…
The Farrell-Jones Fibered Isomorphism Conjecture for the stable topological pseudoisotopy theory has been proved for several classes of groups. For example for discrete subgroups of Lie groups, virtually poly-infinite cyclic groups, Artin…
It has been established in recent years how to approach acyclic cluster algebras of finite type using subword complexes. In this paper, we continue this study by describing the c- and g-vectors, and by providing a conjectured description of…
The Farrell-Jones and the Baum-Connes Conjecture say that one can compute the algebraic K- and L-theory of the group ring and the topological K-theory of the reduced group C^*-algebra of a group G in terms of these functors for the…
In this paper, we prove the Farrell-Jones Conjecture for the solvable Baumslag-Solitar groups with coefficients in an additive category. We also extend our results to groups of the form, Z[1/p] semidirect product with any virtually cyclic…
We prove the A-theoretic Farrell-Jones Conjecture for virtually solvable groups. As a corollary, we obtain that the conjecture holds for S-arithmetic groups and lattices in almost connected Lie groups.
The aim of this article is to introduce Vogel's localization theorem for classes of D-complexes: this generalization of Waldhausen's localization theorem is especially useful and powerful in that it gives an explicit and computable…
We generalize results of P. Schneider and U. Stuhler for GL_l+1 to a reductive algebraic group G defined and split over a non-archimedean local field K. Following their lines, we prove that the generalized Steinberg representations of G…
Let $\mathbb{F}_\ell$ be a finite field with $\ell$ elements and let $G = C_p \rtimes C_m$ be a faithful split metacyclic group. In this paper, we develop a complete theory for the twisted group algebra $\mathbb{F}_\ell^\alpha G$. Using the…
We classify all non-abelian groups G such that there exists a pair (V,W) of absolutely simple Yetter-Drinfeld modules over G such that the Nichols algebra of the direct sum of V and W is finite-dimensional under two assumptions: the square…
Let G be a group and let W be an algebra over a field K. We will say that W is a G-graded twisted algebra if W can be written as a direct sum over the elements of G of one dimensional K-vector spaces. It is also assumed that W has no…
We classify all groups G and all pairs (V,W) of absolutely simple Yetter-Drinfeld modules over G such that the support of the direct sum of V and W generates G, the square of the braiding between V and W is not the identity, and the Nichols…
We introduce a new notion of regularity for rings and exact categories and we show important results in algebraic K-theory. In particular we prove a strong vanishing theorem for Nil groups and give an explicit class of groups, much bigger…
Recent work of Borwein, Choi, and the second author examined a collection of polynomials closely related to the Goldbach conjecture: the polynomial $F_N$ is divisible by the $N$th cyclotomic polynomial if and only if there is no…
Let W be a Weyl group, presented as a crystallographic reflection group on a Euclidean vector space V, and C an open Weyl chamber. In a recent paper, Waldspurger proved that the images (id-w)(C), for Weyl group elements w, are all disjoint,…
The Clifford group associated with a finite abelian group gives rise to a natural extension by the corresponding symplectic group. We prove that this extension splits as a semidirect product if and only if the group order is not divisible…
In this note a combinatorial formula related to the symmetric group is generalized to an arbitrary finite Weyl group.
We prove the A-theoretic Isomorphism Conjecture with coefficients and finite wreath products for solvable groups.
Working jointly in the equivalent categories of MV-al\-ge\-bras and lattice-ordered abelian groups with strong order unit (for short, unital $\ell$-groups), we prove that isomorphism is a sufficient condition for a separating subalgebra $A$…
