In this two-part paper we prove an existence result for affine buildings arising from exceptional algebraic reductive groups. Combined with earlier results on classical groups, this gives a complete and positive answer to the conjecture…

We prove the symmetrising trace conjecture of Brou\'e, Malle and Michel for the generic Hecke algebra associated to the exceptional irreducible complex reflection group $G_{13}$. Our result completes the proof of the conjecture for the…

We reformulate a conjecture of Beauville on algebraic cycles on an abelian variety in terms of certain compatibility and vanishings of some naturally defined filtrations on the Grothendieck group of the abelian variety.

We show that the refinement of Alperin's Conjecture proposed in "Frobenius Categories versus Brauer Blocks", Progress in Math. 274, can be proved by checking that this refinement holds on any central k*-extension of a finite group H…

A conjecture of Dehornoy claims that, given a presentation of an Artin-Tits group, every word that represents the identity can be transformed into the trivial word using the braid relations, together with certain rules (between pairs of…

We show that each block of an alternating group over an arbitrary complete discrete valuation ring is splendidly Rickard equivalent to its Brauer correspondent. This provides new evidence for a refined version of Brou\'{e}'s abelian defect…

We prove that the $p^\infty$-torsion of the transcendental Brauer group of an abelian variety over a finitely generated field of characteristic $p>0$ is bounded. This answers a (variant of a) question asked by Skorobogatov and Zarhin for…

We prove the Borel Conjecture for a class of groups containing word-hyperbolic groups and groups acting properly, isometrically and cocompactly on a finite dimensional CAT(0)-space.

We prove a Tits alternative theorem for subgroups of finitely generated even Artin groups of FC type (EAFC groups), stating that there exists a finite index subgroup such that every subgroup of it is either finitely generated abelian, or…

We show that it is consistent, relative to the consistency of a strongly inaccessible cardinal, that an instance of the generalized Borel Conjecture introduced in [8] holds while the classical Borel Conjecture fails.

We state and prove a condition under which the strong Atiyah Conjecture carries over to subgroups. Moreover, we show that if a group satisfies the (strong) Atiyah Conjecture then any quotient with finite kernel does.

We verify Dade's invariant conjecture for the simple Ree groups 2F4(2^{2n+1}) for all n > 0 in the defining characteristic, i.e., in characteristic 2. This completes the proof of Dade's conjecture for the simple Ree groups 2F4(2^{2n+1}).

We reduce the Mathieu conjecture for $SU(2)$ to a conjecture about moments of Laurent polynomials in two variables with single variable polynomial coefficients.

We formulate an analogue of the Breuil-M\'ezard conjecture for the group of units of a central division algebra over a $p$-adic local field, and we prove that it follows from the conjecture for $\mathrm{GL}_n$. To do so we construct a…

We view the $\tilde{A}$-type affine braid group as a subgroup of the $B$-type braid group. We show that the $\tilde{A}$-type affine braid group surjects onto the $A$-type braid group and we detect the kernel of this surjection using…

The so-called Tits class, associated to an adjoint absolutely almost simple algebraic group, provides a cohomological obstruction for this group to admit an outer automorphism. If the group has inner type, this obstruction is the only one.…

We give a new approach to the construction of derived equivalences between blocks of finite groups, based on perverse equivalences, in the setting of Brou\'e's conjecture. We provide in particular local and global perversity data describing…

The purpose of this note is to prove a conjecture of Shvartsman relating a complex projective reflection group with the quotient of a suitable complex braid group by its center. Shvartsman originally proved this result in the case of real…

We determine the numerical invariants of blocks with defect group D_{2^n}\times C_{2^m}, where D_{2^n} denotes a dihedral group of order 2^n and C_{2^m} denotes a cyclic group of order 2^m. This generalizes Brauer's results for m=0. As a…

Endosplit $p$-permutation resolutions play an instrumental role in verifying Brou\'{e}'s abelian defect group conjecture in numerous cases. We give a new characterization of all endosplit $p$-permutation resolutions and reduce the question…
