In a 2005 paper, Casacuberta, Scevenels and Smith construct a homotopy idempotent functor $E$ on the category of simplicial sets with the property that whether it can be expressed as localization with respect to a map $f$ is independent of…
For a reductive group scheme $G$ over a semilocal Dedekind ring $R$ with total ring of fractions $K$, we prove that no nontrivial $G$-torsor trivializes over $K$. This generalizes a result of Nisnevich-Tits, who settled the case when $R$ is…
The descent method is one of the approaches to study the Brauer--Manin obstruction to the local--global principle and to weak approximation on varieties over number fields, by reducing the problem to ``descent varieties''. In recent lecture…
The Farrell-Jones and the Baum-Connes Conjecture say that one can compute the algebraic K- and L-theory of the group ring and the topological K-theory of the reduced group C^*-algebra of a group G in terms of these functors for the…
Let $G$ be a group and $H_1$,...,$H_s$ be subgroups of $G$ of indices $d_1$,...,$d_s$ respectively. In 1974, M. Herzog and J. Sch\"onheim conjectured that if $\{H_i\alpha_i\}_{i=1}^{i=s}$, $\alpha_i\in G$, is a coset partition of $G$, then…
We show that every amenable group with a locally invariant partial order has a left-invariant total order (and is therefore locally indicable). We also show that if a group G admits a left-invariant total order, and H is a locally nilpotent…
If $G$ is a group acting on a tree $X$, and ${\mathcal S}$ is a $G$-equivariant sheaf of vector spaces on $X$, then its compactly-supported cohomology is a representation of $G$. Under a finiteness hypothesis, we prove that if $H_c^0(X,…
For any given submersion $\pi:X\to B$ with closed, oriented and spin$^c$ fibers of even dimension, equipped with a Riemannian and differential spin$^c$ structure, we apply the Atiyah-Singer-Gorokhovsky-Lott approach to the local family…
Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian Cohen-Macaulay local ring that has positive dimension and prime characteristic. Li proved that the tensor product of a finitely generated non-free $R$-module $M$ with the Frobenius endomorphism…
It is shown in a local strongly $F$-regular ring there exits natural number $e_0$ so that if $M$ is any finitely generated maximal Cohen-Macaulay module then the pushforward of $M$ under the $e_0$th iterate of the Frobenius endomorphism…
It is shown that the strong Atiyah conjecture and the L\"uck approximation conjecture in the space of marked groups hold for locally indicable groups. In particular, this implies that one-relator groups satisfy both conjectures. We also…
Suppose that a finite group $G$ admits a Frobenius group of automorphisms FH of coprime order with cyclic kernel F and complement H such that the fixed point subgroup $C_G(H)$ of the complement is nilpotent of class $c$. It is proved that…
Fredholm Lie groupoids were introduced by Carvalho, Nistor and Qiao as a tool for the study of partial differential equations on open manifolds. This article extends the definition to the setting of locally compact groupoids and proves that…
We define and study the notion of a locally bounded enriched category over a (locally bounded) symmetric monoidal closed category, generalizing the locally bounded ordinary categories of Freyd and Kelly. In addition to proving several…
A topological group $G$ is said to have a local $\omega^\omega$-base if the neighbourhood system at identity admits a monotone cofinal map from the directed set $\omega^\omega$. In particular, every metrizable group is such, but the class…
We work in the category of locally definable groups in an o-minimal expansion of a field. Eleftheriou and Peterzil conjectured that every definably generated abelian connected group G in this category is a cover of a definable group. We…
Let $\mathbf G$ be a reductive algebraic group over a non-archimedean local field $F$ of characteristic zero and let $G=\mathbf G(F)$ be the group of $F$-rational points. Let $\mathcal H(G)$ be the Hecke algebra and let $\mathcal J(G)$ be…
Assume that R is a semi-local regular ring containing an infinite perfect field, or that R is a semi-local ring of several points on a smooth scheme over an infinite field. Let K be the field of fractions of R. Let H be a strongly inner…
We give a new proof of the Krohn-Rhodes Theorem using local divisors. The proof provides nearly as good a decomposition in terms of size as the holonomy decomposition of Eilenberg, avoids induction on the size of the state set, and works…
This is the first of three articles on the Fibered Isomorphism Conjecture of Farrell and Jones for L-theory. We apply the general techniques developed in [15] and [16] to the L-theory case of the conjecture and prove several results. Here…
