Given two vector bundles E and F on a variety X and a morphism from Sym^2(E) to F, we compute the cohomology class of the locus in X where the kernel of this morphism contains a quadric of prescribed rank. Our formulas have many…

In this paper we study invariant rings arising in the study of finite dimensional algebraic structures. The rings we encounter are graded rings of the form $K[U]^{\Gamma}$ where $\Gamma$ is a product of general linear groups over a field…

For W a finite (2-)reflection group and B its (generalized) braid group, we determine the Zariski closure of the image of B inside the corresponding Iwahori-Hecke algebra. The Lie algebra of this closure is reductive and generated in the…

Let F be a finite field and l a prime not equal to the characteristic of F. Let K be the function field of a surface over F. Assume that K contains a primitive lth root of unity. In the paper we prove a certain local-global principle for…

Analogue of classical Hurwitz numbers is defined in the work for regular coverings of surfaces with marked points by seamed surfaces. Class of surfaces includes surfaces of any genus and orientability, with or without boundaries; coverings…

This thesis studies modular forms from a classical and adelic viewpoint. We use this interplay to obtain results about the arithmetic of the Fourier coefficients of modular forms and their generalisations. In Chapter 2, we compute lower…

A certain class of Frobenius algebras has been used to characterize orthonormal bases and observables on finite-dimensional Hilbert spaces. The presence of units in these algebras means that they can only be realized finite-dimensionally.…

Let $G$ be a semisimple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $k$ of positive characteristic $p$. Under some restrictions on the size of $p$, the present paper establishes new results on the $G$-module structure of…

For any pair of orientable closed hyperbolic $3$--manifolds, this paper shows that any isomorphism between the profinite completions of their fundamental groups witnesses a bijective correspondence between the Zariski dense…

Let $K$ be a totally real field. In this article we present an asymptotic formula for the number of Hilbert modular cusp forms $f$ with given ramification at every place $v$ of $K$. When $v$ is an infinite place, this means specifying the…

Let $S=K[x_1,...,x_n]$ or $S=K[[x_1,...,x_n]]$ be either a polynomial or a formal power series ring in a finite number of variables over a field $K$ of characteristic $p > 0$ with $[K:K^p] < \infty$. Let $R$ be the hypersurface $S/fS$ where…

We give an effective proof of Faltings' theorem for curves mapping to Hilbert modular stacks over odd-degree totally real fields. We do this by giving an effective proof of the Shafarevich conjecture for abelian varieties of…

The third homology group of GL_n(R) is studied, where R is a `ring with many units' with center Z(R). The main theorem states that if K_1(Z(R))_Q \simeq K_1(R)_Q, (e.g. R a commutative ring or a central simple algebra), then H_3(GL_2(R), Q)…

The Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov approximation is very useful for treating both long- and short-range correlations in finite quantum fermion systems, but it must be extended in order to describe detailed spectroscopic properties. One problem is…

We study the category of $\mathbf{P}$-equivariant modules over the infinite variable polynomial ring, where $\mathbf{P}$ denotes the subgroup of the infinite general linear group $\mathbf{GL}(\mathbf{C}^\infty)$ consisting of elements…

In this work, we study multiplicity-free induced representations of finite groups. We analyze in great detail the structure of the Hecke algebra corresponding to the commutant of an induced representation and then specialize to the…

In this paper we discuss gauging noninvertible zero-form symmetries in two dimensions. We specialize to certain gaugeable cases, specifically, fusion categories of the form Rep(H) for H a suitable Hopf algebra (which includes the special…

We describe a deformation of the $\infty$-category of Borel $G$-spectra for a finite group $G$. This provides a new presentation of the $a$-complete real Artin--Tate motivic stable homotopy category when $G=C_2$ and gives a new…

Let $k$ be an infinite field of characteristic $p > 0$ and let $R = k[Y_1,\ldots, Y_d]$ (or $R = k[[Y_1,\ldots, Y_d]]$). Let $F \colon \text{Mod}(R) \rightarrow \text{Mod}(R)$ be the Frobenius functor and let $\mathcal{M}$ be a $F_R$-finite…
