We study locally standard $T^k$-manifolds $M$. In particular, we study the case where there is a continuous section to the orbit map $\pi : M \rightarrow M/T$. We give a classification of $T^k$-manifolds satisfying these conditions up to…
Consider a Shimura curve $X^D_0(N)$ over the rational numbers. We determine criteria for the twist by an Atkin-Lehner involution to have points over a local field. As a corollary we give a new proof of the theorem of Jordan-Livn\'e on…
We study the Picard groups of moduli spaces in positive characteristics and we give a "$p$-adic" proof that the Picard group of moduli of vector bundles of fixed determinant is isomorphic to the group of integers. Along the way we prove…
We consider the notions of (i) critical points, (ii) second-order points, (iii) local minima, and (iv) strict local minima for multivariate polynomials. For each type of point, and as a function of the degree of the polynomial, we study the…
We classify the filtered modules with coefficients corresponding to two-dimensional potentially semi-stable $p$-adic representations of the absolute Galois groups of $p$-adic fields under the assumptions that $p$ is odd and the coefficients…
In this paper, we introduce the notions of $p$-Hermitian-symplectic and $p$-pluriclosed compact complex manifolds as generalisations for an arbitrary positive integer $p$ not exceeding the complex dimension of the manifold of the standard…
Let X be a smooth projective Berkovich space over a complete discrete valuation field K of residue characteristic zero, endowed with an ample line bundle L. We introduce a general notion of (possibly singular) semipositive (or…
Following Contou-Carrere [CC], we consider the Bott-Samelson resolution of a Schubert variety as a variety of galleries in the Tits building associated to the situation. We prove that the rational smoothness of a Schubert variety can be…
We give a combinatorial criterion for the tangent bundle on a smooth toric variety to be stable with respect to a given polarisation in terms of the corresponding lattice polytope. Furthermore, we show that for a smooth toric surface and a…
Let $p$ be a prime. A pro-$p$ group $G$ is said to be 1-smooth if it can be endowed with a homomorphism of pro-$p$ groups $G\to1+p\mathbb{Z}_p$ satisfying a formal version of Hilbert 90. By Kummer theory, maximal pro-$p$ Galois groups of…
For a prime $p$ and an absolutely irreducible modulo $p$ polynomial $f(U,V) \in \Z[U,V]$ we obtain an asymptotic formulas for the number of solutions to the congruence $f(x,y) \equiv a \pmod p$ in positive integers $x \le X$, $y \le Y$,…
In this article we study motives corresponding to the moduli stacks of G-shtukas and their local models. In particular we deal with the question of describing their motivic fundamental invariants. As an application, we provide a criterion…
A recent theorem by T. Barthel, M. Hausmann, N. Naumann, T. Nikolaus, J. Noel, and N. Stapleton says that if A is a finite abelian p-group of rank r, then any finite A-space X which is acyclic in the nth Morava K-theory with n at least r…
We investigate the mod $p$ Buchstaber invariant of the skeleta of simplices, for a prime number $p$, and compare them for different values of $p$. For $p=2$, the invariant is the real Buchstaber invariant. Our findings reveal that these…
We present a combinatorial and computational commutative algebra methodology for studying singularities of Schubert varieties of flag manifolds. We define the combinatorial notion of *interval pattern avoidance*. For "reasonable" invariants…
We explain that the Pl\"ucker relations provide the defining equations of the thick flag manifold associated to a Kac-Moody algebra. This naturally transplant the result of Kumar-Mathieu-Schwede about the Frobenius splitting of thin flag…
We investigate the combinatorial data arising from the classification of equivariant homotopy commutativity for cyclic groups of order $G=C_{p_1 \cdots p_n}$ for $p_i$ distinct primes. In particular, we will prove a structural result which…
A topological invariant of a polynomial map $p:X\to B$ from a complex surface containing a curve $C\subset X$ to a one-dimensional base is given by a rational second homology class in the compactification of the moduli space of genus $g$…
Let X = G/P be a cominuscule rational homogeneous variety. (Equivalently, X admits the structure of a compact Hermitian symmetric space.) I give a uniform description (that is, independent of type) of the irreducible components of the…
Let $G/H$ be a homogeneous variety, and let $X$ be a $G$-equivariant embedding of $G/H$such that the number of $G$-orbits in $X$ is finite. We show that the equivariant Borel-Moore homology of $X$ has a filtration with associated graded…
