First, we present a simple confining abelian pure gauge theory. Classically, its kinetic term is not positive definite, and it contains a simple UV regularized F^4 interaction. This provoques the formation of a condensate ~ F^2 such that,…
Among all affine, flat, finitely presented group schemes, we focus on those that are pure, this includes all groups which are extensions of a finite locally free group by a group with connected fibres. We prove that over an arbitrary base…
In this paper, we study affine transformations on tori, nilmanifolds and compact abelian groups. For these systems, we show that an equivalent condition for zero entropy is the orbit closure of each point has a nice structure. To be…
Let $G$ be a connected semi-simple algebraic group of adjoint type over an algebraically closed field, and let $\overline{G}$ be the wonderful compactification of $G$. For a fixed pair $(B, B^-)$ of opposite Borel subgroups of $G$, we look…
We show that the affine closure of T^*(SL_n/U) has symplectic singularities, in the sense of Beauville. In the special case n=3, we show that the affine closure of T^*(SL_3/U) is isomorphic to the closure of the minimal nilpotent adjoint…
We prove that the affine closure of the cotangent bundle of the basic affine space of a complex semisimple group has conical symplectic singularities, which confirms a conjecture of Ginzburg and Kazhdan. We also show that this variety is…
In this paper we prove the following theorem. Let $f:\mathbb{A}^2\rightarrow \mathbb{A}^2$ be a dominate polynomial endomorphisms defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $0$. If there are no nonconstant rational…
Questions related to Brauer-Manin obstructions to the Hasse principle and weak approximation for homogeneous spaces of tori over a number field are well-studied, generally using arithmetic duality theorems, starting with works of Sansuc and…
The adjoint action of a finite group of Lie type on its Lie algebra is studied. A simple formula is conjectured for the number of split semisimple orbits of a given genus. This conjecture is proved for type A, and partial results are…
We view the $\tilde{A}$-type affine braid group as a subgroup of the $B$-type braid group. We show that the $\tilde{A}$-type affine braid group surjects onto the $A$-type braid group and we detect the kernel of this surjection using…
Let G be a reductive algebraic group and let H be a reductive subgroup of G. We describe all pairs (G,H) such that for any affine G-variety X with a dense G-orbit isomorphic to G/H the number of G-orbits in X is finite. The maximal number…
Let $X$ be an affine scheme of $k \times \mathbb{N}$-matrices and $Y$ be an affine scheme of $\mathbb{N} \times \cdots \times \mathbb{N}$-dimensional tensors. The group Sym$(\mathbb{N})$ acts naturally on both $X$ and $Y$ and on their…
We prove a conjecture of Medvedev and Scanlon in the case of regular morphisms of semiabelian varieties. That is, if $G$ is a semiabelian variety defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $0$, and $\varphi\colon G\to…
Let $G$ be a finite group acting linearly on a vector space $V$. We consider the linear symmetry groups $\operatorname{GL}(Gv)$ of orbits $Gv\subseteq V$, where the \emph{linear symmetry group} $\operatorname{GL}(S)$ of a subset $S\subseteq…
It is known that, in general, an affine or Gabor AP-frame is an $L^2(\mathbb{R})$-frame and conversely. In part as a consequence of the Ergodic Theorem, we prove a necessary and sufficient condition for an affine (wavelet) system…
We prove the Zariski dense orbit conjecture in positive characteristic for endomorphisms of $\mathbb{G}_a^N$ defined over $\overline{\mathbb{F}_p}$.
A binding group theorem is proved in the context of quantifier-free internality to the fixed field in difference-closed fields of characteristic zero. This is articulated as a statement about the birational geometry of isotrivial algebraic…
We define Lie subalgebras of the group algebra of a finite pseudo-reflection group that are involved in the definition of the Cherednik KZ-systems, and determine their structure. We provide applications for computing the Zariski closure of…
We find conditions which ensure that the topological complexity of a closed manifold $M$ with abelian fundamental group is nonmaximal, and see through examples that our conditions are sharp. This generalizes results of Costa and Farber on…
In a recent paper, Gabriel Navarro and Pham Huu Tiep show that the so-called Alperin Weight Conjecture can be verified via the Classification of the Finite Simple Groups, provided any simple group fulfills a very precise list of conditions.…
