Consider an automorphism group of a finite-dimensional algebra. S. Halperin conjectured that the unity component of this group is solvable if the algebra is a complete intersection. The solvability criterion recently obtained by M. Schulze…

Let B be a block of a finite group with respect to an algebraically closed field F of characteristic p>0. In a recent paper, Otokita gave an upper bound for the Loewy length LL(ZB) of the center ZB of B in terms of a defect group D of B. We…

We prove the blockwise Navarro Alperin weight conjecture for double covers of symmetric and alternating groups.

In this paper, we obtain a characterization of short normal sequences over a finite Abelian p-group, thus answering positively a conjecture of Gao for a variety of such groups. Our main result is deduced from a theorem of Alon, Friedland…

We present the notion of non-abelian descent type, which classifies torsors up to twisting by a Galois cocycle. This relies on the previous construction of kernels and non-abelian Galois 2-cohomology due to Springer and Borovoi. The…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$, and let $\mathcal{O}$ be either $k$ or its ring of Witt vectors $W(k)$. Let $G$ a finite group and $B$ a block of $\mathcal{O}G$ with normal abelian defect group and abelian…

Let $k$ be a finitely generated field of characteristic $p>0$ and $X$ a smooth and proper scheme over $k$. Recent works of Cadoret, Hui and Tamagawa show that, if $X$ satisfies the $\ell$-adic Tate conjecture for divisors for every prime…

We extend the results of [CGLS22] to higher weight modular forms and prove a rank $0$ Tamagawa number formula (also known as the Bloch-Kato conjecture) for modular forms at good Eisenstein primes, under some technical assumption on periods.…

It is a longstanding conjecture that for a finite group $G$, the exponent of the second homology group $H_2(G, \mathbb{Z})$ divides the exponent of $G$. In this paper, we prove this conjecture for $p$-groups of class at most $p$, finite…

A purity conjecture due to Grothendieck and Auslander--Goldman predicts that the Brauer group of a regular scheme does not change after removing a closed subscheme of codimension $\ge 2$. The combination of several works of Gabber settles…

In this paper, we introduce a notion of stable coarse algebras for metric spaces with bounded geometry, and formulate the twisted coarse Baum--Connes conjecture with respect to stable coarse algebras. We prove permanence properties of this…

Let $A/\mathbb{Q}$ be an elliptic curve with split multiplicative reduction at a prime $p$. We prove (an analogue of) a conjecture of Perrin-Riou, relating $p$-adic Beilinson$-$Kato elements to Heegner points in $A(\mathbb{Q})$, and a large…

Let $G$ be a finite group whose order is divisible by the characteristic of a field $k$. If $B$ is a block of $kG$ with defect group $P$, we prove that the space of derivations on $kP$ which are restrictions of derivations on $kG$, modulo…

We discuss logical links among uniformity conjectures concerning K3 surfaces and abelian varieties of bounded dimension defined over number fields of bounded degree. The conjectures concern the endomorphism algebra of an abelian variety,…

We study a new object that can be attached to an abelian variety or a complex torus: the invariant Brauer group, as recently defined by Yang Cao. Over the field of complex numbers this is an elementary abelian 2-group with an explicit upper…

Building on previous work by Caicedo and the second author, we develop a method that decides the existence of units of finite order in blocks of $\mathbb{Z}_p G$ of defect 1. This allows us to prove that if $p$ is a prime and $G$ is a…

For a block B of a finite group G there are well-known orthogonality relations for the generalized decomposition numbers. We refine these relations by expressing the generalized decomposition numbers with respect to an integral basis of a…

The Brauer-Thrall Conjectures, now theorems, were originally stated for finitely generated modules over a finite-dimensional $\sk$-algebra. They say, roughly speaking, that infinite representation type implies the existence of lots of…

It is proven that if a finite group $G$ has a normal subgroup $H$ with $p'$-index (where $p$ is a prime) and $G/H$ is solvable, then for a $p$-subgroup $P$ of $H$, if the Scott $kH$-module with vertex $P$ is Brauer indecomposable, then so…

Given a $(0,p)$-mixed characteristic complete discrete valued field $\mathcal{K}$ we define a class of finite field extensions called \emph{pseudo-perfect} extensions such that the natural restriction map on the mod-$p$ Milnor $K$-groups is…
