Let $U$ and $A$ be algebras over a field $k$. We study algebra structures $H$ on the underlying tensor product $U{\otimes}A$ of vector spaces which satisfy $(u{\otimes}a)(u'{\otimes}a') = uu'{\otimes}aa'$ if $a = 1$ or $u' = 1$. For a pair…

We study properties of a group, abelian group, ring, or monoid $B$ which (a) guarantee that every homomorphism from an infinite direct product $\prod_I A_i$ of objects of the same sort onto $B$ factors through the direct product of finitely…

We study the cohomology of certain local systems on moduli spaces of principally polarized abelian surfaces with a level 2 structure. The trace of Frobenius on the alternating sum of the \'etale cohomology groups of these local systems can…

The algebra $\mathcal H:= H_{1,\nu}(I_2(2m+1))$ of observables of the Calogero model based on the root system $I_2(2m+1)$ has an $m$-dimensional space of traces and an $(m+1)$-dimensional space of supertraces. In the preceding paper we…

For G an almost-connected Lie group, we study G-equivariant index theory for proper co-compact actions with various applications, including obstructions to and existence of G-invariant Riemannian metrics of positive scalar curvature. We…

It is well-known that algebraic K-theory preserves products of rings. However, in general, algebraic K-theory does not preserve fiber-products of rings, and bi-relative algebraic K-theory measures the deviation. It was proved by Cortinas…

If $G$ is a finite Coxeter group, then symplectic reflection algebra $H:=H_{1,\eta}(G)$ has Lie algebra $\mathfrak {sl}_2$ of inner derivations and can be decomposed under spin: $H=H_0 \oplus H_{1/2} \oplus H_{1} \oplus H_{3/2} \oplus ...$.…

We prove that AF-embeddability is a homotopy invariant in the class of separable exact $C^*$-algebras. This work was inspired by Spielberg's work on homotopy invariance of AF-embeddability and Dadarlat's serial works on AF-embeddability of…

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…

It is shown that the Baer-Kaplansky theorem can be extended to all abelian groups provided that the rings of endomorphisms of groups are replaced by trusses of endomorphisms of corresponding heaps. That is, every abelian group is determined…

We describe a conjectural construction (in the spirit of Hilbert's 12th problem) of units in abelian extensions of certain base fields which are neither totally real nor CM. These base fields are quadratic extensions with exactly one…

In recent years, researchers have discovered various large algebraic structures that have surprising finiteness properties, such as FI-modules and Delta-modules. In this paper, we add another example to the growing list: we show that…

In this paper, motivated by a $\tau$-tilting version of the Brauer-Thrall Conjectures, we study general properties of band modules and their endomorphisms in the module category of a finite dimensional algebra. As an application we describe…

We construct a theory of motivic cohomology for quasi-compact, quasi-separated schemes of equal characteristic, which is related to non-connective algebraic $K$-theory via an Atiyah--Hirzebruch spectral sequence, and to \'etale cohomology…

This thesis revolves around the Stolz' positive scalar curvature sequence: in particular adapted to the context of (G, F)-spaces, i.e. proper G-spaces with isotropy groups belonging to a family F of subgroups of G, and to that of manifolds…

We provide a universal characterization of the construction taking a scheme $X$ to its stable $\infty$-category $\text{Mot}(X)$ of noncommutative motives, patterned after the universal characterization of algebraic K-theory due to…

We propose an explicit relation between the cohomology of compactified and noncompactified moduli spaces of algebraic curves with punctures. This relationship generalizes one between commutative algebras and Lie algebras proposed by Lazard,…

We prove homology stability for elementary and special linear groups over rings with many units improving known stability ranges. Our result implies stability for unstable Quillen K-groups and proves a conjecture of Bass. For commutative…

The aim of this note is to take benefit of the foam nature of the Khovanov-Kuperberg algebras to compute the Grothendieck groups of their categories of finitely generated projective modules. The computation relies on the Hattori-Stallings…

A general structure theorem on higher order invariants is proven. For an arithmetic group, the structure of the corresponding Hecke module is determined. It is shown that the module does not contain any irreducible submodule. This explains…
