Let $V$ be a valuation domain of rank one and quotient field $K$. Let $\overline{\hat{K}}$ be a fixed algebraic closure of the $v$-adic completion $\hat K$ of $K$ and let $\overline{\hat{V}}$ be the integral closure of $\hat V$ in…

We study non-interacting electrons in disordered materials which exhibit a spectral gap, in each of the ten Altland--Zirnbauer symmetry classes, in all space dimensions. We define an appropriate space of Hamiltonians and a topology on it so…

Let X be a smooth quartic surface not containing lines, defined over a number field K. We prove that there are only finitely many bitangents to X which are defined over K. This result can be interpreted as saying that a certain surface,…

The classification, both up to isomorphism or up to equivalence, of the gradings on a finite dimensional nonassociative algebra A over an algebraically closed field F, such that its group scheme of automorphisms is smooth, is shown to be…

If $X$ is a rational surface without nonzero holomorphic vector field and $f$ is an automorphism of $X$, we study in several examples the Zariski tangent space of the local deformation space of the pair $(X, f)$.

It is shown that for a linear algebraic group G over a field of characteristic zero, there is a natural number \kappa(G) such that if a system of Zariski closed cosets in G has empty intersection, then there is a subsystem consisting of at…

Let $(K,|\cdot|)$ be a complete discretely valued field and $f:{\mathbb B}_1(K,1) \to {\mathbb B}_1(K,1)$ a nonconstant analytic map from the unit back to itself. We assume that 0 is an attracting fixed point of $f$. Let $a \in K$ with…

We develop a sequential-topological study of rational points of schemes of finite type over local rings typical in higher dimensional number theory and algebraic geometry. These rings are certain types of multidimensional complete fields…

Let $K=k(C)$ be the function field of a curve over a field $k$ and let $X$ be a smooth, projective, separably rationally connected $K$-variety with $X(K)\neq\emptyset$. Under the assumption that $X$ admits a smooth projective model $\pi:…

We give a characterization of countable discrete subspace $A$ of a topological space $X$ such that there exists a (linear) continuous mapping $\varphi:C_p^*(A)\to C_p(X)$ with $\varphi(y)|_A=y$ for every $y\in C_p^*(A)$. Using this…

We prove that for any compact quasi-smooth strictly $k$-analytic space $X$ there exist a finite extension $l/k$ and a quasi-\'etale covering $X'\to X\otimes_kl$ such that $X'$ possesses a strictly semistable formal model. This extends a…

We investigate finite sets of rational functions $\{ f_{1},f_{2}, \dots, f_{r} \}$ defined over some number field $K$ satisfying that any $t_{0} \in K$ is a $K_{p}$-value of one of the functions $f_{i}$ for almost all primes $p$ of $K$. We…

We provide a new condition for an absolutely almost simple algebraic group to have good reduction with respect to a discrete valuation of the base field which is formulated in terms of the existence of maximal tori with special properties.…

We show that finite quasisimple groups of Lie type in characteristic $p$ with an irreducible representation of prime degree $r$ over a finite field of characteristic $p$ have orders bounded above by a function of $r$, independent of $p$. We…

This article is the second installment in a series on the Berkovich ramification locus for nonconstant rational functions f: P^1 -> P^1. Here we show the ramification locus of f is contained in a strong tubular neighborhood of finite radius…

In this article, we show that a flat morphism of $k$-varieties ($\mathop{\mathrm{char}} k=0$) with locally constant geometric fibers becomes finite \'etale after reduction. When $k$ is a real closed field, we prove that such a morphism…

We prove that the space of radical ideals of a ring $R$, endowed with the hull-kernel topology, is a spectral space, and that it is canonically homeomorphic to the space of the nonempty Zariski closed subspaces of Spec$(R)$, endowed with a…

Let ${\mathcal O}$ be the ring of $S$-integers in a number field $K$. For $A\in\rm{SL}_{2}(\mathcal{O})$ and $k\geq 1$, we define matrix-factorization varieties $V_k(A)$ over ${\mathcal O}$ which parametrize factoring $A$ into a product of…

We use the differentiability of the arithmetic volume function and an arithmetic Bertini type theorem to classify when one can find a closed point on the generic fiber of an arithmetic variety, whose heights with respect to some finite…

A topological space is totally paracompact if any base of this space contains a locally finite subcover. We focus on a problem of Curtis whether in the class of regular Lindel\"of spaces total paracompactness is equivalent to the Menger…
