Half-integral weight modular forms are naturally viewed as automorphic forms on the so-called metaplectic covering of $\operatorname{GL}_2(\mathbf{A}_{\mathbf{Q}})$ -- a central extension by the roots of unity $\mu_2$ in $\mathbf{Q}$. For…
For a finite group scheme G over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p>0 we study G-modules M, which are defined in terms of properties of their pull-backs along p-points of G. We show that the corresponding subcategories…
In this paper we continue the study of locally analytic representations of a $p$-adic Lie group $G$ in vector spaces over a spherically complete non-archimedean field $K$, building on the algebraic approach to such representations…
To a finitely generated profinite group $G$, a formal Dirichlet series $P_G(s)=\sum_{n \in \mathbb N} {a_n(G)}/{n^s}$ is associated, where $a_n(G)=\sum_{|G:H|=n}\mu(H, G)$ and $\mu(H,G)$ denotes the M\"obius function of the lattice of open…
Let Rep(F;K) denote the category of functors from finite dimensional F-vector spaces to K-modules, where F is a field and K is a commutative ring. We prove that, if F is a finite field, and Char F is invertible in K, then the K-linear…
We expand the existing arsenal of methods for exploring the irreducible components of the varieties $Rep(A,\bold d)$ which parametrize the representations with dimension vector $\bold d$ of a finite dimensional algebra $A$. To do so, we…
For a family of group words $w$ we show that if $G$ is a profinite group in which all $w$-values are contained in a union of finitely many subgroups with a prescribed property, then $w(G)$ has the same property as well. In particular, we…
We initiate a systematic study of the perfection of affine group schemes of finite type over fields of positive characteristic. The main result intrinsically characterises and classifies the perfections of reductive groups, and obtains a…
Let $X$ be a smooth and proper scheme over an algebraically closed field. The purpose of the current text is twofold. First, we construct the moduli stack parametrizing rank $n$ continuous $p$-adic representations of the \'etale fundamental…
The aim of this paper is to extend the structure theory for infinitely generated modules over tame hereditary algebras to the more general case of modules over concealed canonical algebras. Using tilting, we may assume that we deal with…
Let $p$ be a prime, $k$ a finite extension of $\mathbf{F}_p$ of cardinal $q$, $l$ a finite extension of $k$ of group $\Sigma=\mathrm{Gal}(l|k)$, and $T$ a subgroup of $l^\times$. Using the method of "little groups", we classify irreducible…
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a symmetrizable Kac--Moody algebra. We describe {standard graded} $\mathfrak{g}$-modules $V$, which we use to construct a completion $\widehat{V}$ and pro-unipotent group $\widehat{U}$ in $\GL(\widehat{V})$. These…
Let $p$ be a prime number and $K$ a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$. We state conjectures on the smooth representations of $\mathrm{GL}_n(K)$ that occur in spaces of mod $p$ automorphic forms (for compact unitary groups). In particular,…
This work concerns the representation theory and cohomology of a finite unipotent supergroup scheme $G$ over a perfect field $k$ of positive characteristic $p\ge 3$. It is proved that an element $x$ in the cohomology of $G$ is nilpotent if…
Let G be a finite group, and let Omega:={t\in G\mid t^2=1}. Then Omega is a G-set under conjugation. Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2. It is shown that each projective indecomposable summand of the G-permutation…
Let $G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group $G$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of prime characteristic $p$, and $\ggg=\Lie(G)$. In this paper, we study modular representations of the reductive Lie algebra $\ggg$ with…
Let G be an infinitesimal group scheme over a field k of positive characteristic p. We introduce the global p-nilpotent operator $\Theta_G: k[G] \to k[V(G)]$, where V(G) is the scheme which represents 1-parameter subgroups of G. This…
Recently there has been a lot of research and progress in profinite groups. We survey some of the new results and discuss open problems. A central theme is decompositions of finite groups into bounded products of subsets of various kinds…
This article investigates the splitting problem for finitely generated projective modules $P$ over affine algebras over algebraically closed fields and their polynomial extensions. We then address an open question due to M. Roitman on monic…
