We prove rigidity type results on the vanishing of stable (co)homology for modules of finite complete intersection dimension, results which generalize and improve upon known results. We also introduce a notion of pre-rigidity, which…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $k$ a field of characteristic $p$. We conjecture that if $M$ is a $kG$-module with $H^*(G,M)$ finitely generated as a module over $H^*(G,k)$ then as an element of the stable module category…

Let p be a prime, M be a finite group, F be the field with p elements, and V be an absolutely irreducible FM-module. Then V has a universal deformation ring R(M,V) whose structure is closely related to the first and second cohomology groups…

We introduce the stable module $\infty$-category for groups of type $\Phi$ as an enhancement of the stable category defined by N. Mazza and P. Symonds. For groups of type $\Phi$ which act on a tree, we show that the stable module…

Assume $G$ is a solvable group whose elementary abelian sections are all finite. Suppose, further, that $p$ is a prime such that $G$ fails to contain any subgroups isomorphic to $C_{p^\infty}$. We show that if $G$ is nilpotent, then the…

We study certain moduli spaces of stable vector bundles of rank two on cubic and quartic threefolds. In many cases under consideration, it turns out that the moduli space is complete and irreducible and a general member has vanishing…

Let $\mathbf{k}$ be an algebraically closed field. Recently, K. Erdmann classified the symmetric $\mathbf{k}$-algebras $\Lambda$ of finite representation type such that every non-projective module $M$ has period dividing four. The goal of…

For finite dimensional free $C_p$-spaces, the calculation of the Bredon cohomology ring as an algebra over the cohomology of $S^0$ is used to prove the non-existence of certain $C_p$-maps. These are related to Borsuk-Ulam type theorems, and…

Let $k$ be a perfect field of characteristic $p > 0$. For a strictly semi-stable scheme over $k[[t]]$, we construct the weight spectral sequence in $p$-adic cohomology using the theory of arithmetic $\mathcal{D}$-modules, whose $E_1$ terms…

The moduli space of stable bundles of rank 2 and degree 1 on a Riemann surface has rational cohomology generated by the so-called universal classes. The work of Baranovsky, King-Newstead, Siebert-Tian and Zagier provided a complete set of…

This is the second of two papers treating faithful actions of simple algebraic groups on irreducible modules and on the associated Grassmannian varieties; in the first paper we considered the module itself and its projective space, while…

After we have given a survey on the Burnside ring of a finite group, we discuss and analyze various extensions of this notion to infinite (discrete) groups. The first three are the finite-G-set-version, the inverse-limit-version and the…

We characterise subcategories of semistable modules for noncommutative minimal models of compound Du Val singularities, including the non-isolated case. We find that the stability is controlled by an infinite polyhedral fan that stems from…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $H$ a normal subgroup of prime index $p$. Let $V$ be an irreducible ${\mathbb F}H$-module and $U$ a quotient of the induced ${\mathbb F}G$-module $V\kern-3pt\uparrow$. We describe the structure of $U$, which is…

Fisher [Fis75] and Baur [Bau75] showed independently in the seventies that if $T$ is a complete first-order theory extending the theory of modules, then the class of models of $T$ with pure embeddings is stable. In [Maz4, 2.12], it is asked…

We describe torsion classes in the first cohomology group of $\text{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$. In particular, we obtain generalized Dickson's invariants for p-power polynomial rings. Secondly, we describe torsion classes in the zero-th homology…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2, and let $W$ be the ring of infinite Witt vectors over $k$. Suppose $D$ is a dihedral 2-group. We prove that the universal deformation ring $R(D,V)$ of an endo-trivial $kD$-module…

For a connected Noetherian unstable algebra $R$ over the mod $p$ Steenrod algebra, we prove versions of theorems of Duflot and Carlson on the depth of $R$, originally proved when $R$ is the mod $p$ cohomology ring of a finite group. This…

Suppose that $G$ is a finite group and $k$ is a field of characteristic $p>0$. We consider the complete cohomology ring $\mathcal{E}_M^* = \sum_{n \in \mathbb{Z}} \widehat{Ext}^n_{kG}(M,M)$. We show that the ring has two distinguished…

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic $p>0$, and let $W$ be a complete discrete valuation ring of characteristic $0$ that has $k$ as its residue field. Suppose $G$ is a finite group and $G^{\mathrm{ab},p}$ is its maximal abelian $p$-quotient…
