Let $G$ be a finite group, let $x \in G$, and let $p$ be a prime. We prove that the commutator $[x,g]$ is a $p$-element for every $g \in G$ if and only if $x$ is central modulo $\mathbf{O}_p(G)$, where $\mathbf{O}_p(G)$ denotes the largest…

Let $K$ be a field finitely generated over the field of rational numbers, $K(c)$ the extension of $K$ obtained by adjoining all roots of unity, $L$ an infinite Galois extension of $K$, $X$ an abelian variety defined over $K$. We prove that…

In the theory of unitary group representations, a group is called type I if all factor representations are of type I, and by a celebrated theorem of James Glimm [Gli61b], the type I groups are precisely those groups for which the…

Several properly countable unions of algebraic sets in $\mathbb{C}^n$ are definable in $\mathbb{C}(t)$ including the set CM of $j$-invariants of complex elliptic curves with complex multiplication. It has been suggested that one could prove…

We give deterministic polynomial-time algorithms that, given an order, compute the primitive idempotents and determine a set of generators for the group of roots of unity in the order. Also, we show that the discrete logarithm problem in…

Let G be a unipotent algebraic group over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p > 0 and let l be a prime different from p. Let e be a minimal idempotent in D_G(G), the braided monoidal category of G-equivariant (under…

We use recent results about linking the number of zeros on algebraic varieties over $\mathbb{C}$, defined by polynomials with integer coefficients, and on their reductions modulo sufficiently large primes to study congruences with products…

In a previous article (see \cite{CNP}), we introduced and analyzed ring-theoretic properties of object unital $\mathcal{G}$-graded rings $R$, where $\mathcal{G}$ is a groupoid. In the present article, we analyze the category $\grmod$ of…

Let $p$ be an odd prime number. We construct explicit uniformizers for the totally ramified extension $\mathbb{Q}_p(\zeta_{p^2},\sqrt[p]{p})$ of the field of $p$-adic numbers $\mathbb{Q}_p$, where $\zeta_{p^2}$ is a primitive $p^2$-th root…

It was once conjectured that if $A$ is a uniform algebra on its maximal ideal space $X$, and if each point of $X$ is a peak point for $A$, then $A = C(X)$. This peak-point conjecture was disproved by Brian Cole in 1968. Here we establish a…

Let U be an open subset of a unirational variety. We prove that there is rational curve C in U such that the fundamental group of C surjects onto the fundamental group of U. As a consequence we obtain new proofs of the theorems of Harbater…

We study character varieties arising as moduli of representations of an orientable surface group into a reductive group $G$. We first show that if $G/Z$ acts freely on the representation variety, then both the representation variety and the…

We prove the conjecture of Oort that a compact subvariety of the moduli space of principally polarized Abelian varieties of genus g has codimension strictly greater than g, for g > 2, in characteristic zero

This paper deals with the Langlands' classification for discrete series of unitary quasi-split p-adic groups. We show that such a classification follows from Arthur's work on the simple trace formula which we can use now thanks to…

Let $G$ be a Lie group and $G\to\Aut(G)$ be the canonical group homomorphism induced by the adjoint action of a group on itself. We give an explicit description of a 1-1 correspondence between Morita equivalence classes of, on the one hand,…

Let A be a commutative ring with 1/2 in A. In this paper, we define new characteristic classes for finitely generated projective A-modules V provided with a non degenerate quadratic form. These classes belong to the usual K-theory of A.…

Let K be a complete discrete valuation field of mixed characteristic (0,p) and G_K the absolute Galois group of K. In this paper, we will prove the p-adic monodromy theorem for p-adic representations of G_K without any assumption on the…

In this paper we generalize Cherednik's method and prove that certain Shimura varieties corresponding to groups of unitary similitudes and automorphic vector bundles over them have p-adic uniformization. This is proved for Shimura…

We prove that all mod $p^m$ singular forms of level $N$, degree $n+r$, and $p$-rank $r$ with $n\ge r$ are congruent mod $p^m$ to linear combinations of theta series of degree $r$ attached to quadratic forms of some level. Moreover, we prove…

We construct characteristic classes for singular algebraic varieties in motivic Borel-Moore homology, extending the motivic Euler class of the tangent bundle defined for smooth varieties. The two classes we define refine, in the setting of…
