We obtain a criterion for the automorphism group of an affine toric variety to be connected in combinatorial terms and in terms of the divisor class group of the variety. The component group of the automorphism group of a non-degenerate…

Let X_1 and X_2 be mixing connected algebraic dynamical systems with the Descending Chain Condition. We show that every equivariant continuous map X_1 to X_2 is affine (that is, X_2 is topologically rigid) if and only if the system X_2 has…

Let $G$ be an affine algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic zero. In this paper, we consider finite $G$-equivariant morphisms $F:X\to Y$ of irreducible affine $G$-varieties. First we determine under which…

I extend the definitions of schemes relative to monoids with zero - and therefore, toric geometry - to the world of formal schemes. This expands the usual framework to include, for instance, models for Mumford's degenerating Abelian…

Let $G$ be an affine group scheme over a noetherian commutative ring $R$. We show that every $G$-equivariant vector bundle on an affine toric scheme over $R$ with $G$-action is extended from $\Spec(R)$ for several cases of $R$ and $G$. We…

In this paper we prove that all manifolds with affine connection are globally projectively equivalent to some space with equiaffine connection (equiaffine manifold). These manifolds are characterised by a symmetric Ricci tensor.

We clarify the relationship between the linear commutator and the ordinary commutator by showing that in any variety satisfying a nontrivial idempotent Mal'cev condition the linear commutator is definable in terms of the centralizer…

We lift the affine Matsuki correspondence between real and symmetric loop group orbits in affine Grassmannians to an equivalence of derived categories of sheaves. In analogy with the finite-dimensional setting, our arguments depend upon the…

In this paper, we give new criteria for affineness of a variety defined over $\Bbb{C}$. Our main result is that an irreducible algebraic variety $Y$ (may be singular) of dimension $d$ ($d\geq 1$) defined over $\Bbb{C}$ is an affine variety…

We generalize to the super context, the known fact that if an affine algebraic group $G$ over a commutative ring $k$ acts freely (in an appropriate sense) on an affine scheme $X$ over $k$, then the dur sheaf $X\tilde{\tilde{/}}G$ of…

A connected component of an affine algebraic group is called periodic if all its elements have finite order. We give a characterization of periodic components in terms of automorphisms with finite number of fixed points. It is also…

Among all affine, flat, finitely presented group schemes, we focus on those that are pure, this includes all groups which are extensions of a finite locally free group by a group with connected fibres. We prove that over an arbitrary base…

It is well known that all torsors under an affine algebraic group over an algebraically closed field are trivial. We note that under suitable conditions this also holds if the the group is not necessarily of finite type. This has an…

An enumerative problem on a variety $V$ is usually solved by reduction to intersection theory in the cohomology of a compactification of $V$. However, if the problem is invariant under a "nice" group action on $V$ (so that $V$ is…

An arc space of an affine cone over a projective toric variety is known to be non-reduced in general. It was demonstrated recently that the reduced scheme structure is worth studying due to various connections with representation theory and…

One of the longstanding problems in universal algebra is the question of which finite lattices are isomorphic to the congruence lattices of finite algebras. This question can be phrased as which finite lattices can be represented as…

Let U be a unipotent group over the field of complex numbers C, acting on a complex algebraic variety X. Assume that there exists a surjective morphism of complex algebraic varieties f: X --> Y whose fibres are orbits of U. We show that if…

We observe that there is an equivalence between the singularity category of an affine complete intersection and the homotopy category of matrix factorizations over a related scheme. This relies in part on a theorem of Orlov. Using this…

A new approach to \'etale homotopy theory is presented which applies to a much broader class of objects than previously existing approaches, namely it applies not only to all schemes (without any local Noetherian hypothesis), but also to…

A map of fine log schemes $X \to Y$ induces a map from the scheme underlying $X$ to Olsson's algebraic stack of strict morphisms of fine log schemes over $Y$. A sheaf on $X$ is called \emph{log flat over} $Y$ iff it is flat over this…
