In this article we show how the data of integrals of algebraic differential forms over algebraic cycles can be used in order to prove that algebraic and Hodge cycle deformations of a given algebraic cycle are equivalent. As an example, we…

Period and index of a curve $X/K$ over a $p$-adic local field $K$ such that the fundamental group $\pi_1(X/K)$ admits a splitting are shown to be powers of $p$. As a consequence, examples of curves over number fields are constructed where…

Let $H$ be a division ring of finite dimension over its center, let $H[T]$ be the ring of polynomials in a central variable over $H$, and let $H(T)$ be its quotient skew field. We show that every intermediate division ring between $H$ and…

We prove that two general Enriques surfaces defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from $2$ are isomorphic if their Kuznetsov components are equivalent. We apply the same techniques to give a new simple proof…

This paper is devoted to deformation theory of graded Lie algebras over $\Z$ or $\Z_l$ with finite dimensional graded pieces. Such deformation problems naturally appear in number theory. In the first part of the paper, we use Schlessinger…

The geometric and algebraic theory of monomial ideals and multigraded modules is initiated over real-exponent polynomial rings and, more generally, monoid algebras for real polyhedral cones. The main results include the generalization of…

Based on Bergman's Lemma on centralizers, we obtain a sharp lower degree bound for nonconstant elements in a subalgebra generated by two elements of a free associative algebra over an arbitrary field.

These lecture notes were prepared for the Lefschetz Preparatory School, a graduate summer course held in Krakow, May 6-10, 2024. They present the story of the algebraic Lefschetz properties from their origin in algebraic geometry to some…

Motivated by the study of algebraic classes in mixed characteristic we define a countable subalgebra of $\bar{\mathbb{Q}}_p$ which we call the algebra of Andr\'e's $p$-adic periods. We construct a tannakian framework to study these periods.…

The main goal of this paper is to give a completely elementary proof for the decomposition theorem of Wright convex functions which was discovered by C.\ T.\ Ng in 1987. In the proof, we do not use transfinite tools, i.e., variants of…

We present short proofs of the transcendence of the Liouville and the Mahler numbers. The first proof is known for a long time, the second proof apparently appeared only in 2002-2003. The proofs are accessible to high-school students.

The centers of the generic central simple algebras with involution are interesting objects in the theory of central simple algebras. These fields also arise as invariant fields for linear actions of projective orthogonal or symplectic…

We introduce analogues of Soergel bimodules for complex reflection groups of rank one. We give an explicit parametrization of the indecomposable objects of the resulting category and give a presentation of its split Grothendieck ring by…

Motivated by team semantics and existential second-order logic, we develop a model-theoretic framework for studying second-order objects such as sets and relations. We introduce a notion of abstract elementary team categories that…

We show that the Hall algebra of two-periodic complexes, which is recently introduced by T.Bridgeland, coincides with the Drinfeld double of the ordinary Hall bialgebra.

This is the author's PhD-thesis, which was written in 2006. The version posted here is identical to the printed one. Instead of an abstract, the short list of contents: Preface 5 1 Introduction 9 2 K-theory and cyclic type homology theories…

The `transcendental methods' in the algebraic theory of quadratic forms are based on two major results, proved in the 60's by Cassels and Pfister, and known as the representation and the subform theorems. A generalization of the…

We settle a long-standing problem in the theory of Hecke algebras of complex reflection groups by constructing many (graded) integral cellular bases of these algebras. As applications, we explicitly construct the simple modules of Ariki's…

The Constant Degree Hypothesis was introduced by Barrington et. al. (1990) to study some extensions of $q$-groups by nilpotent groups and the power of these groups in a certain computational model. In its simplest formulation, it…
