We prove Hodge-theoretic formulas for the $\mathbb{Q}$-factoriality defect of a normal projective variety, and for the local analytic $\mathbb{Q}$-factoriality defect of an analytic germ of a normal variety. These formulas lead to…
The Hodge de Rham theory of relative Malcev completion is developed in this paper. In the special case where one takes the corresponding reductive group to be trivial, one recovers Chen's de Rham theory of the fundamental group and the…
The sum-product phenomena over a finite extension K of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ is explored. The main feature of the results is the fact that the implied constants are independent of $p$.
A major theme in the theory of $p$-adic deformations of automorphic forms is how $p$-adic $L$-functions over eigenvarieties relate to the geometry of these eigenvarieties. In this article we prove results in this vein for the ordinary part…
The primary objective of this paper is the study of different instances of the elliptic Stark conjectures of Darmon, Lauder and Rotger, in a situation where the elliptic curve attached to the modular form $f$ has split multiplicative…
We give a reformulation of the Lehmer conjecture about algebraic integers in terms of a simple counting problem modulo p.
Eggert's Conjecture says that if R is a finite-dimensional nilpotent commutative algebra over a perfect field F of characteristic p, and R^{(p)} is the image of the p-th power map on R, then dim_F R \geq p dim_F R^{(p)}. Whether this very…
A survey of direct and inverse type results for row sequences of Pad\'e and Hermite-Pad\'e approximation is given. A conjecture is posed on an inverse type result for type II Hermite-Pad\'e approximation when it is known that the sequence…
We give a simple criterion so that a countable infinite direct sum of trace (evaluation) maps is a trace map. An application to the theory of self-adjoint extensions of direct sums of symmetric operators is provided; this gives an…
This is a written-up version of eight introductory lectures to the Hodge theory of projective manifolds. The table of contents should be self-explanatory. The only exception is section 8 where I discuss, in a simple example, a technique for…
The strong factorization conjecture states that a proper birational map between smooth algebraic varieties over a field of characteristic zero can be factored as a sequence of smooth blowups followed by a sequence of smooth blowdowns. We…
We prove that the Hodge-de Rham spectral sequence for smooth proper tame Artin stacks in characteristic p (as defined by Abramovich, Olsson, and Vistoli) which lift mod p^2 degenerates. We push the result to the coarse spaces of such…
Let $X$ be a quasi-compact quasi-separated $p$-adic formal scheme that is smooth either over a perfectoid $\mathbb{Z}_p$-algebra or over some ring of integers of a $p$-adic field. We construct a fully faithful functor from perfect complexes…
The main objective of this article is to establish the $p$-adic Artin formalism for the algebraic $p$-adic $L$-functions attached to the adjoint representations of Coleman families of modular forms. In particular, we prove a factorization…
For a map f: X -> Y of quasi-compact quasi-separated schemes, we discuss quasi-perfection, that is, the right adjoint f^\times of the derived functor Rf_* respects small direct sums. This is equivalent to the existence of a functorial…
Directed Algebraic Topology is beginning to emerge from various applications. The basic structure we shall use for such a theory, a 'd-space', is a topological space equipped with a family of 'directed paths', closed under some operations.…
We prove that groups that are mod-p-homology equivalent are isomorphic modulo any term of their derived p-series, in precise analogy to Stallings' 1963 result for the lower-central p-series. Similarly spaces that are mod-p-homology…
For any smooth proper rigid space $X$ over a complete algebraically closed extension $K$ of $\mathbb Q_p$ we give a geometrisation of the $p$-adic Simpson correspondence of rank one in terms of analytic moduli spaces: The $p$-adic character…
We give a classification of irreducible admissible modulo $p$ representations of a split $p$-adic reductive group in terms of supersingular representations. This is a generalization of a theorem of Herzig.
I discuss the problem of realizing families of complex orientable homology theories as families of commutative ring spectra, including a recent result of Jacob Lurie emphasizing the role of p-divisible groups.
