We prove a variant of the reciprocity laws for CM abelian varieties, CM K3 surfaces, and CM points on Shimura varieties. Given a CM object over the complex numbers, our variation describes the set of all models over a given number field $F$…
Let G be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field k of bad characteristic. We classify the spherical unipotent conjugacy classes of G. We also show that if the characteristic of k is 2, then the fixed point subgroup of…
Pseudo-automorphisms are birational transformations acting as regular automorphisms in codimension 1. We import ideas from geometric group theory to prove that a group of birational transformations that satisfies a fixed point property on…
In this paper, we determine the connected component of the automorphism group scheme of Matsuo algebras over fields of characteristic not $3$.
We make explicit computations in the formal symplectic geometry of Kontsevich and determine the Euler characteristics of the three cases, namely commutative, Lie and associative ones, up to certain weights.From these, we obtain some…
We show that for a complete complex algebraic variety the pure component of homology coincides with the image of intersection homology. Therefore pure homology is topologically invariant. To obtain slightly more general results we introduce…
We classify all finite-dimensional connected Hopf algebras with large abelian primitive spaces. We show that they are Hopf algebra extensions of restricted enveloping algebras of certain restricted Lie algebras. For any abelian matched pair…
A class of differential calculi is explored which is determined by a set of automorphisms of the underlying associative algebra. Several examples are presented. In particular, differential calculi on the quantum plane, the $h$-deformed…
For any type of fundamental groupoid scheme, we construct an algebraic cohomology theory for varieties with coefficients in the base field. This is a minor variant of \'etale cohomology, involving neither de Rham complexes nor…
We first show that any connected algebraic group over a perfect field is the neutral component of the automorphism group scheme of some normal projective variety. Then we show that very few connected algebraic semigroups can be realized as…
We extend methods of Greenberg and the author to compute in the cohomology of a Shimura curve defined over a totally real field with arbitrary class number. Via the Jacquet-Langlands correspondence, we thereby compute systems of Hecke…
We describe (in a representation theoretic setting) a simple comparison of trace formulas, which implies that the conjugate of a Hilbert modular form $f$ by an automorphism of ${\Bbb C}$ again is a Hilbert modular form of the same level and…
A detailed proof is given of a theorem describing the centraliser of a transitive permutation group, with applications to automorphism groups of objects in various categories of maps, hypermaps, dessins, polytopes and covering spaces, where…
We introduce quasi-homomorphisms of cluster algebras, a flexible notion of a map between cluster algebras of the same type (but with different coefficients). The definition is given in terms of seed orbits, the smallest equivalence classes…
The polynomial automorphisms of the affine plane over a field K form a group which has the structure of an amalgamated free product. This well-known algebraic structure can be used to determine some key results about the symmetry and…
We study nilpotent groups acting faithfully on complex algebraic varieties. We use a method of base change. For finite p-groups, we go from $k$, a number field, to a finite field in order to use counting lemmas. We show that a finite…
For simple algebraic groups defined over algebraically closed fields of good characteristic, we give upper bounds on the covering numbers of unipotent conjugacy classes in terms of their (co)ranks and in terms of their dimensions.
It is known that the canonical double cover of any connected nonbipartite graph have an automorphism group of the form $H \rtimes \mathbb{Z}_2$, where $H$ is the set of automorphism which preserve bipartite parts. We construct connected…
We compute the topological complexity of Eilenberg-Mac Lane spaces associated to the group of automorphisms of a finitely generated free group which act by conjugation on a given basis, and to certain subgroups.
We show that generically a pseudogroup generated by holomorphic diffeomorphisms defined about $0 \in \mathbb{C}$ is free in the sense of pseudogroups even if the class of conjugacy of the generators is fixed. This result has a number of…
