Let $\Sigma$ be a finite regular cell complex with $\emptyset \in \Sigma$, and regard it as a partially ordered set (poset) by inclusion. Let $R$ be the incidence algebra of the poset $\Sigma$ over a field $k$. Corresponding to the Verdier…

The descent algebra $\Sigma(W)$ is a subalgebra of the group algebra $\Q W$ of a finite Coxeter group $W$, which supports a homomorphism with nilpotent kernel and commutative image in the character ring of $W$. Thus $\Sigma(W)$ is a basic…

Let $R_s M$ denote the Singer construction on an unstable module $M$ over the Steenrod algebra $A$ at the prime two; $R_s M$ is canonically a subobject of $P_s\otimes M$, where $P_s$ is the polynomial algebra on s generators of degree one.…

We prove the Singer conjecture for varieties with semismall Albanese map and residually finite fundamental group.

Let $A$ be the Steenrod algebra over the finite field $k := \mathbb Z_2$ and $G(q)$ be the general linear group of rank $q$ over $k.$ A well-known open problem in algebraic topology is the explicit determination of the cohomology groups of…

Let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be an elliptic curve and let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field. Under a certain Heegner hypothesis, Kolyvagin constructed cohomology classes for $E$ using $K$-CM points and conjectured they did not all vanish.…

We investigate the region of restored electroweak symmetry around a superconducting cosmic string coupled to the Weinberg-Salam model with an extra Higgs doublet. We show that the presence of the extra Higgs fields, and in particular their…

In this fourth part, (with the notations of the preceding parts) we make the following hypothesis: $(W,S)$ is a Coxeter system, irreducible, $2$-spherical and $S$ is finite. Let $R:W\to GL(M)$ be a reducible reflection representation of…

Let W be a 2-dimensional right-angled Coxeter group. We characterise such W with linear and quadratic divergence, and construct right-angled Coxeter groups with divergence polynomial of arbitrary degree. Our proofs use the structure of…

We prove that the homology groups of any connected reductive group over a field with coefficients in the Steinberg representation vanish in a range. The generalizes work of Ash-Putman-Sam on the classical split groups. We state a…

In the derived category of a commutative noetherian ring, we explicitly construct a silting object associated with each sp-filtration of the Zariski spectrum satisfying the "slice" condition. Our new construction is based on local…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a linear reflection group in the sense of Vinberg to be Zariski-dense in the ambient projective general linear group. As an application, we show that every irreducible right-angled Coxeter…

Let $G$ be a reductive affine algebraic group defined over a field $k$ of characteristic zero. In this paper, we study the cotangent complex of the derived $G$-representation scheme $ {\rm DRep}_G(X)$ of a pointed connected topological…

We construct a "Koszul duality" equivalence relating the (diagrammatic) Hecke category attached to a Coxeter system and a given realization to the Hecke category attached to the same Coxeter system and the dual realization. This extends a…

This paper presents a construction of fibered links $(K,\Sigma)$ out of chord diagrams $\sL$. Let $\Gamma$ be the incidence graph of $\sL$. Under certain conditions on $\sL$ the symmetrized Seifert matrix of $(K,\Sigma)$ equals the bilinear…

Recently, arguments for a refined de Sitter conjecture were put forward in arXiv:1810.05506. Using the large distance conjecture of arXiv:hep-th/0605264, the authors provide evidence for this dS conjecture in asymptotic regimes of field…

In this paper, we give a class of reflection rigid Coxeter systems. Let $(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system. Suppose that (1) for each $s,t\in S$ such that $m(s,t)$ is odd, $\{s,t\}$ is a maximal spherical subset of $S$, (2) there does not exist a…

Given an odd prime number $p$ and a Coxeter group $W$ such that the order of the product $st$ is prime to $p$ for every Coxeter generators $s,t$ of $W$, we prove that the $p$-local homology groups $H_k(W,\mathbb{Z}_{(p)})$ vanish for $1\leq…

In this paper, we establish the rationality conjecture raised in \cite{FKS} for any $(r-1)$-connected ($r\geq 2$) $kr$-dimensional CW-complex $X$ ($k\geq 2$) having a unique spherical cohomology class $u\in \tilde{H}^r(X, \mathbb{Z})$ such…

We refine Brieskorn's study of the cohomology of the complement of the reflection arrangement of a finite Coxeter group $W$. As a result we complete the verification of a conjecture by Felder and Veselov that gives an explicit basis of the…
