For non-negative integers $k\leq n$, we prove a combinatorial identity for the $p$-binomial coefficient $\binom{n}{k}_p$ based on abelian p-groups. A purely combinatorial proof of this identity is not known. While proving this identity, for…
We introduce a complete set of combinatorial data that encode the category $2\mathfrak{Cob}$ of all $2$-cobordisms. As an application, we show that the local monoids of $2\mathfrak{Cob}$ do not have finitely axiomatizable equational…
We introduce the principal representation category $\mathscr{O}({\bf G})$ of reductive algebraic groups with Frobenius maps and put forward a conjecture that this category is a highest weight category. When $\Bbbk$ is complex field…
In this paper we study families of representations of the outer automorphism groups indexed on a collection of finite groups $\mathcal{U}$. We encode this large amount of data into a convenient abelian category $\mathcal{A}\mathcal{U}$…
We classify pointed Hopf algebras of discrete corepresentation type over an algebraically closed field K with characteristic zero. For such algebras $H$, we explicitly determine the algebra structure up to isomorphism for the link…
Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, F its algebraically closed extension, and G be the group of k-automorphisms of F endowed with a natural topology. One of the purposes of this paper is to show that any…
We make explicit some conditions on a semi-abelian category D such that, for any abelian group A in D and any object Y in D, the cohomology group homomorphisms with coefficients in A, induced by the inclusion of the abelian objects of D at…
As a consequence of the algebraicity of chromatic homotopy at large primes, we show that the Hopkins' Picard group of the $K(n)$-local category coincides with the algebraic one when $2p-2 > n^{2}+n$.
We prove the $K(n)$-local analogue of the Hahn-Wilson conjecture on fp-spectra, which states that the truncated Brown-Peterson spectra generate the category of fp-spectra as a thick subcategory. As a corollary, we deduce the original…
Let $A$ be a finite-dimensional algebra over a field $k$. We define $A$ to be $\mathbf{C}$-dichotomic if it has the dichotomy property of the representation type on complexes of projective $A$-modules. $\mathbf{C}$-dichotomy implies the…
For a fixed finite group $Q$ and semi-simple finite dimensional algebra $S$, we examine an equivalence between strongly $Q$-graded algebras (extensions) with identity component $S$ and $S^1$-gerbes on action groupoids of $Q$ on the set of…
The functor that takes a ring to its category of modules has an adjoint if one remembers the forgetful functor to abelian groups: the endomorphism ring of linear natural transformations. This uses the self-enrichment of the category of…
We study the homotopy category $ K(\Inj A)$ of all injective modules over a finite dimensional algebra $A$ with discrete derived category. We give a classification of the indecomposable objects of $ K(\Inj A)$ for any radical square zero…
We give new homotopy theoretic criteria for deciding when a fibration with homotopy finite fibers admits a reduction to a fiber bundle with compact topological manifold fibers. The criteria lead to a new and unexpected result about…
Let G be the fundamental group of the complement of a K(G,1) hyperplane arrangement (such as Artin's pure braid group) or more generally a homologically toroidal group (as defined in the paper). The subgroup of elements in the complex…
One problematic feature of Hall algebras is the fact that the standard multiplication and comultiplication maps do not satisfy the bialgebra compatibility condition in the underlying symmetric monoidal category Vect. In the past this…
Let $A$ be the locally unital algebra associated to a cyclotomic oriented Brauer category over an arbitrary algebraically closed field $\Bbbk$ of characteristic $p\ge 0$. The category of locally finite dimensional representations of $A $ is…
Heisenberg categories act on many Abelian categories appearing in type A representation theory. There is also a general procedure to construct from a Heisenberg action another action of a Kac-Moody 2-category for some associated Cartan…
We generalize Quillen's $F$-isomorphism theorem, Quillen's stratification theorem, the stable transfer, and the finite generation of cohomology rings from finite groups to homotopical groups. As a consequence, we show that the category of…
Let $f:A \to B$ be a ring homomorphism of not necessarily unital rings and $I\triangleleft A$ an ideal which is mapped by f isomorphically to an ideal of B. The obstruction to excision in K-theory is the failure of the map between relative…
