We report on computations of the cohomology of GL_2(O_D) and SL_2(O_D), where D<0 is a fundamental discriminant. These computations go well beyond earlier results of Vogtmann and Scheutzow. We use the technique of homology of Voronoi…

In this paper, semilocal Milnor $K$-theory of fields is introduced and studied. A strongly convergent spectral sequence relating semilocal Milnor $K$-theory to semilocal motivic cohomology is constructed. In weight 2, the motivic cohomology…

We develop new algebraic methods refining the Witt group of linking forms and Ranicki's torsion algebraic L-groups into double Witt groups and double L-groups. At each prime ideal of the underlying ring, our double Witt groups capture…

Let $K$ be a field of characteristic zero and let $\mathfrak{sl}_2 (K)$ be the 3-dimensional simple Lie algebra over $K$. In this paper we describe a finite basis for the $\mathbb{Z}_2$-graded identities of the adjoint representation of…

This paper describes the $K$-theory structure for three algebra classes. For cyclic $p$-group rings and truncated polynomial rings over $\mathbb{Z}/p^s\mathbb{Z}$, we determine reduced $K_2$-structures via a common algebraic framework. For…

We introduce the adjoint homological Selmer module for an SL$_2$-representation of a knot group, which may be seen as a knot theoretic analogue of the dual adjoint Selmer module for a Galois representation. We then show finitely generated…

Let G be the six dimensional linear algebraic k-group SL_2(W_2), where W_2 is the ring of Witt vectors of length two over the algebraically closed field k of characteristic p>2. Then the minimal dimension of a faithful rational…

Let $\mathbb K$ be a field of characteristic zero. We prove that its motivic cohomology in degree $m-1$ and weight $m$ is rationally isomorphic to the cohomology of the polylogarithmic complex. This gives a partial extension of A. Suslin…

We consider the semi-direct products $G=\mathbb Z^2\rtimes GL_2(\mathbb Z), \mathbb Z^2\rtimes SL_2(\mathbb Z)$ and $\mathbb Z^2\rtimes\Gamma(2)$ (where $\Gamma(2)$ is the congruence subgroup of level 2). For each of them, we compute both…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring that is free of rank $k$ as an abelian group, $p$ a prime, and $SL(n,R)$ the special linear group. We show that the Lie algebra associated to the filtration of $SL(n,R)$ by $p$-congruence subgroups is…

We generalize the connection between 2t physics and noncommutative geometry. In particular, we apply our formalism to a target spacetime of signature (2+2). Specifically, we compute an algebra of a generalized SL(2, R)-Hamiltonian…

Scissors congruence groups have traditionally been expressed algebraically in terms of group homology. We give an alternate construction of these groups by producing them as the $0$-level in the algebraic $K$-theory of a Waldhausen…

We give a process to construct non-split, three-dimensional simple Lie algebras from involutions of sl(2,k), where k is a field of characteristic not two. Up to equivalence, non-split three-dimensional simple Lie algebras obtained in this…

Let $G$ be a split semisimple linear algebraic group over a field and let $X$ be a generic twisted flag variety of $G$. Extending the Hilbert basis techniques to Laurent polynomials over integers we give an explicit presentation of the…

We formulate a "correct" version of the Quillen conjecture on linear group homology for certain arithmetic rings and provide evidence for the new conjecture. In this way we predict that the linear group homology has a direct summand looking…

We prove that for any infinite field homology stability for the third integral homology of the special linear groups $SL(n,F)$ begins at $n=3$. When $n=2$ the cokernel of the map from the third homology of $SL(2,F)$ to the third homology of…

We identify the spaces of homogeneous polynomials in two variables K[Y^k, XY^{k-1}, ..., X^k] among representations of the Lie ring sl(2,K). This amounts to constructing a compatible K-linear structure on some abstract sl(2,K)-modules,…

We describe infinite-dimensional Leibniz algebras whose associated Lie algebra is the Witt algebra and we prove the triviality of low-dimensional Leibniz cohomology groups of the Witt algebra with the coefficients in itself.

We compute the group homology, the topological K-theory of the reduced C^*-algebra, the algebraic K-theory and the algebraic L-theory of the group ring of the semi-direct product of the three-dimensional discrete Heisenberg group by Z/4.…

We classify the linearly reductive finite subgroup schemes $G$ of $SL_2=SL(V)$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of positive characteristic, up to conjugation. As a corollary, we prove that such $G$ is in one-to-one correspondence with…
