We study the model theory of deeply ramified fields of positive characteristic. Generalizing the perfect case treated in work by Jahnke and Kartas on the model theory of perfectoid fields, we obtain Ax-Kochen/Ershov principles for certain…

In this note we prove a generalization of the Frobenius-Schur theorem for finite groups for the case of semisimple Hopf algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. A similar result holds in characteristic $p > 2$ if the…

Assume that $(L,v)$ is a finite Galois extension of a valued field $(K,v)$. We give an explicit construction of the valuation ring $\mathcal O_L$ of $L$ as an $\mathcal O_K$-algebra, and an explicit description of the module of relative…

Let R be a local Artin ring with residue field k of positive characteristic. We prove that every finite flat group scheme over R whose special fiber belongs to a certain explicit family of non-commutative k-group schemes is killed by its…

We give a new proof of the theorem stating that for any connected linear algebraic group G over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 0 and for any closed connected subgroup H of G, the unramified Brauer group of G/H vanishes.

Let $R$ be a discrete valuation ring with fraction field $K$ and $X$ a flat $R$-scheme. Given a faithful action of a $K$-group scheme $G_K$ over the generic fibre $X_K$, we study models $G$ of $G_K$ acting on $X$. In various situations, we…

We first develop a general theory of Johnson filtrations and Johnson homomorphisms for a group $G$ acting on another group $K$ equipped with a filtration indexed by a "good" ordered commutative monoid. Then, specializing it to the case…

We prove a general version of the "Stability Theorem": if $K$ is a valued field such that the ramification theoretical defect is trivial for all of its finite extensions, and if $F|K$ is a finitely generated (transcendental) extension of…

Let O be a complete discrete valuation ring of mixed characteristic and with finite residue field k. We study a natural morphism between the Greenberg algebra of O and the special fiber of the scheme of ramified Witt vectors over O. It is a…

Let K be a maximal unramified extension of a nonarchimedean local field with arbitrary residual characteristic p. Let G be a reductive group over K which splits over a tamely ramified extension of K. We show that the associated Moy-Prasad…

Following Serre's initial work, a number of authors have considered twists of quadratic forms on a scheme Y by torsors of a finite group G, together with formulas for the Hasse-Witt invariants of the twisted form. In this paper we take the…

We define generalizations of classical invariants of wild ramification for coverings on a variety of arbitrary dimension over a local field. For an l-adic sheaf, we define its Swan class as a 0-cycle class supported on the wild ramification…

Building on the work of the fourth author in math.AG/9904074, we prove the weak factorization conjecture for birational maps in characteristic zero: a birational map between complete nonsingular varieties over an algebraically closed field…

Hesselholt and Madsen in [7] define and study the (absolute, p-typical) de Rham-Witt complex in mixed characteristic, where p is an odd prime. They give as an example an elementary algebraic description of the de Rham-Witt complex over…

We show how the ramification filtration on the maximal elementary abelian p-extension (p prime) on a local number field of residual characteristic p can be derived using only Kummer theory and a certain orthogonality relation for the Kummer…

We prove the existence of noncrossed product and indecomposable division algebras over the function field of a smooth p-adic curve, especially when the curve does not admit a smooth model over Z_p. Thus we generalize arXiv 0907.0670. To…

In this work we study the failure of the HKR theorem over rings of positive and mixed characteristic. For this we construct a filtered circle interpolating between the usual topological circle and a formal version of it. By mapping to…

In this article, we investigate the shift of Abbes and Saito's ramification filtrations of the absolute Galois group of a complete discrete valuation field of positive characteristic under a purely inseparable extension. We also study a…

We prove that the vanishing of the functoriality morphism for the \'etale fundamental group between smooth projective varieties over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$ forces the same property for the fundamental groups…

We show that a large class of finite dimensional pointed Hopf algebras is quasi-isomorphic to their associated graded version coming from the coradical filtration, i.e. they are 2-cocycle deformations of the latter. This supports a slightly…
