We construct some examples of polynomial maps over finite fields that admit subvarieties with a peculiar property: every geometric point is mapped to a fixed point by some iteration of the map, while the whole subvariety is not. Several…
We construct an explicit bijection between bipartite pointed maps of an arbitrary surface $\mathbb{S}$, and specific unicellular blossoming maps of the same surface. Our bijection gives access to the degrees of all the faces, and distances…
In this paper we prove some properties of the nonabelian cohomology $H^1(A,G)$ of a group $A$ with coefficients in a connected Lie group $G$. When $A$ is finite, we show that for every $A$-submodule $K$ of $G$ which is a maximal compact…

Let G be a reductive algebraic group and V a G-module. We consider the question of when (GL(V), rho(G)) is a reductive pair of algebraic groups, where rho is the representation afforded by V. We first make some observations about general G…
Let $G$ denote a reductive algebraic group over $\mathbb{C}$ and $x$ a nilpotent element of its Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. The Springer variety $\mathcal{B}_x$ is the closed subvariety of the flag variety $\mathcal{B}$ of $G$…
We introduce a refined version of group cohomology and relate it to the space of polynomials on the group in question. We show that the polynomial cohomology with trivial coefficients admits a description in terms of ordinary cohomology…
We say that two unitary or orthogonal representations of a finitely generated group $G$ are additive conjugates if they are intertwined by an additive map, which need not be continuous. We associate to each representation of $G$ a…
In this note we give an example of affine quotient $G/H$ where $G$ is an affine algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 and $H$ is a unipotent subgroup not contained in the unipotent radical of $G$. Some…
Let $\mathcal{V}$ be a congruence permutable variety generated by a finite nilpotent algebra $\mathbf{A}$. If $\mathbf{A}$ is a product of algebras of prime power order, then the class $\mathcal{V}_\text{si}$ of subdirectly irreducible…
Let G be the group of rational points of a reductive connected group over a finite field (resp. nonarchimedean local field of characteristic p) and R a commutative ring. The unipotent (resp. pro-p Iwahori) invariant functor takes a smooth…
If $G$ is a presheaf of groupoids on a small site, and $A$ is a sheaf of abelian groups, we prove that the sheaf cohomology group $H^2 (BG, A)$ is in bijection with a set of central extensions of $G$ by $A$. We use this result to study the…
In the paper, we first classify all polynomial maps $H$ of the following form: $H=\big(H_1(x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_n),H_2(x_1,x_2),H_3(x_1,x_2),\ldots,H_n(x_1,x_2)\big)$ with $JH$ nilpotent. After that, we generalize the structure of $H$ to…
Let $k$ be a perfect field of characteristic $p$, and let $X/k$ be a smooth variety. It is known that given a Frobenius lifting of $X$, we can identify prismatic crystals and nilpotent Higgs bundles, known as a positive characteristic…
Let $p$ be a prime and let $G$ be a finite group such that the smallest prime that divides $|G|$ is $p$. We find sharp bounds, depending on $p$, for the commuting probability and the average character degree to guarantee that $G$ is…
This work concerns the representation theory and cohomology of a finite unipotent supergroup scheme $G$ over a perfect field $k$ of positive characteristic $p\ge 3$. It is proved that an element $x$ in the cohomology of $G$ is nilpotent if…
Let $G$ be a non-abelian group and $Z(G)$ be the center of $G$. Associate a graph $\Gamma_G$ (called non-commuting graph of $G$) with $G$ as follows: take $G\setminus Z(G)$ as the vertices of $\Gamma_G$ and join two distinct vertices $x$…
For any group $G$ of self homotopy equivalences of the finite nilpotent complex $X$, acting nilpotently on its homology, and for any nilpotent subcomplex $A$, we prove that the universal fibration $$ X \longrightarrow B(*,{\rm…
