We show that a finitely generated abelian group $G$ of torsion-free rank $n\geq 1$ admits a $n+r$ dimensional model for the classifying space with isotropy in the family of subgroups of torsion-free rank less than or equal to $r\geq 0$.

We prove that a K\"ahler group which is cubulable, i.e. which acts properly discontinuously and cocompactly on a CAT(0) cubical complex, has a finite index subgroup isomorphic to a direct product of surface groups, possibly with a free…

A linear system on a smooth complex algebraic surface gives rise to a family of smooth curves in the surface. Such a family has a topological monodromy representation valued in the mapping class group of a fiber. Extending arguments of…

We construct Abelian model structures on the category of chain complexes over a ring $R$, from the notion homological dimensions of modules. Given an integer $n > 0$, we prove that the left modules over a ringoid $\mathfrak{R}$ with…

We show that, in a highest weight category with duality, the endomorphism algebra of a tilting object is naturally a cellular algebra. Our proof generalizes a recent construction of Andersen, Stroppel, and Tubbenhauer. This result raises…

We investigate the existence and non-existence of modular forms of low weight with a character with respect to the paramodular group $\Gamma_t$ and discuss the resulting geometric consequences. Using an advanced version of Maa\ss\ lifting…

Let H be a finite dimensional Hopf algebra over a field k and A an H-module algebra over k. Khovanov and Qi defined acyclic objects and quasi-isomorphisms by using null-homotopy and contractible objects. They also defined the cofibrant…

Let X be a compact Riemann surface equipped with a real-analytic K\"ahler form $\omega$ and let E be a holomorphic vector bundle over $X$ equipped with a real-analytic Hermitian metric $h$. Suppose that the curvature of $h$ is…

Let \Omega X be the space of Moore loops on a finite, q-connected, n-dimensional CW complex X, and let R be a subring of Q containing 1/2. Let p(R) be the least non-invertible prime in R. For a graded R-module M of finite type, let FM = M /…

A number of years ago, Kumar Murty pointed out to me that the computation of the fundamental group of a Hilbert modular surface ([7],IV,${\S}$6), and the computation of the congruence subgroup kernel of SL(2) ([6]) were surprisingly…

Let $G$ be a group. A ring $R$ is called a graded ring (or $G$-graded ring) if there exist additive subgroups $R_{\alpha }$ of $R$ indexed by the elements $\alpha \in G$ such that $R=\bigoplus_{\alpha \in G}R_{\alpha }$ and $R_{\alpha…

For which groups $G$ is it true that for all fields $k$, every non-monomial element of the group algebra $k\,G$ generates a proper $2$-sided ideal? The only groups for which we know this are the torsion-free abelian groups. We would like to…

The free abelian group R(Q) on the set of indecomposable representations of a quiver Q, over a field K, has a ring structure where the multiplication is given by the tensor product. We show that if Q is a rooted tree (an oriented tree with…

Let f: S'--> S be a finite and faithfully flat morphism of locally noetherian schemes of constant rank n > 1 and let G be a smooth, commutative and quasi-projective S-group scheme with connected fibers. Under certain restrictions on f and…

Let $G$ be a simple simply connected algebraic group scheme defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 0$. Let $T$ be a maximal split torus in $G$, $B \supset T$ be a Borel subgroup of $G$ and $U$ its unipotent…

Given a diagram of rings, one may consider the category of modules over them. We are interested in the homotopy theory of categories of this type: given a suitable diagram of model categories M(s) (as s runs through the diagram), we…

We study the homology of the dual de Rham complex as functors on the category of abelian groups. We give a description of homology of the dual de Rham complex up to degree 7 for free abelian groups and present a corrected version of the…

Let $\mathfrak F$ be a locally compact nonarchimedean field with residue characteristic $p$ and $G$ the group of $\mathfrak{F}$-rational points of a connected split reductive group over $\mathfrak{F}$. We define a torsion pair in the…

In this paper we consider non-abelian 1-cohomology for groups with coefficients in other groups. We prove versions of the `five lemma' arising from this situation. We go on to show that a connected unipotent algebraic group Q acted on…

We describe some of the connections between the Bieri-Neumann-Strebel-Renz invariants, the Dwyer-Fried invariants, and the cohomology support loci of a space X. Under suitable hypotheses, the geometric and homological finiteness properties…
