Let K be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 0. We apply a theorem of C. Han to give an explicit description for the weak Lefschetz property of the monomial Artinian complete intersection A = K[X,Y,Z]/(X^d,Y^d,Z^d) in terms…
Let G be a reductive group over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. In this article we show an analogue for Morozov theorem for characteristics that are separably good for G (and under additional hypotheses on the…
A characteristic pair is a pair (G,C) of polynomial sets in which G is a reduced lexicographic Groebner basis, C is the minimal triangular set contained in G, and C is normal. In this paper, we show that any finite polynomial set P can be…
The structure and modular properties of N=4 superconformal characters are reviewed and exploited, in an attempt to construct elliptic genera-like functions by decompactifying K3. The construction is tested against expressions obtained in…
Let g be the Lie superalgebra p(3) of rank 2 over an algebraically closed field K of characteristic p > 3. We classify all irreducible modules of g, and give the character formulae for irreducible modules.
This paper is withdrawn since we found a flaw in the proof of Theorem 4, asserting that the base locus of the complete linear system of an ample line bundle on a complex abelian variety is reduced. The error is in page 7, line $ -14$, where…
Let $ K $ be a global function field of characteristic $ 2 $. For each non-trivial place $ v $ of $ K $, let $ K_{v} $ be the completion of $ K $ at $ v $. We show that if two non-degenerate quadratic forms are similar over every $ K_{v} $,…
The authors define some secondary characteristic homomorphism for the triple (A,B,\bigtriangledown), in which B\subset A is a pair of regular Lie algebroids over the same foliated manifold and \bigtriangledown:L\rightarrow A is a…
We prove a quantitative version of Hilbert's irreducibility theorem for function fields: If $f(T_1,\ldots, T_n,X)$ is an irreducible polynomial over the field of rational functions over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of characteristic $p$,…
Let K be a complete discretely valued field with residue field k of characteristic p>0. There is a duality theory for cohomology with coefficients in commutative finite K-group schemes in the following cases : char(K)=0 and k finite (Tate),…
We consider a deformation of Kerov character polynomials, linked to Jack symmetric functions. It has been introduced recently by M. Lassalle, who formulated several conjectures on these objects, suggesting some underlying combinatorics. We…
In this paper we obtain new quantitative forms of Hilbert's Irreducibility Theorem. In particular, we show that if $f(X, T_1, \ldots, T_s)$ is an irreducible polynomial with integer coefficients, having Galois group $G$ over the function…
For a field extension $L/K$ we consider maps that are quadratic over $L$ but whose polarisation is only bilinear over $K$. Our main result is that all such are automatically quadratic forms over $L$ in the usual sense if and only if $L/K$…
The famous Jacobian conjecture asks if a morphism $f:K[x,y]\to K[x,y]$ having an invertible Jacobian is invertible ($K$ is a characteristic zero field). We show that if one of the following three equivalent conditions is satisfied, then $f$…
A minimal (by inclusion) generating set for the algebra of semi-invariants of a quiver of dimension (2,...,2) is established over an infinite field of arbitrary characteristic. The mentioned generating set consists of the determinants of…
In this article we formulate and prove the main theorems of the theory of character sheaves on unipotent groups over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p>0. In particular, we show that every admissible pair for such a group G…
We discuss secondary (and higher) characteristic classes for algebraic vector bundles with trivial top Chern class. We show that if X is a smooth affine scheme of dimension d over a field k of finite 2-cohomological dimension (with char(k)…
Let $F$ be a finite extension of ${\mathbb{Q}} \_p$. Any dihedral supercuspidal representation of $GL \_2 (K)$ arises from an admissible multiplicative character $\omega$ of a quadratic extension $L$ of $K$. We show that such a…
In this article, we show that if $KG$ is Lie nilpotent group algebra of a group $G$ over a field $K$ of characteristic $p>0$, then $t_{L}(KG)=k$ if and only if $t^{L}(KG)=k$, for $k\in\{5p-3, 6p-4\}$, where $t_{L}(KG)$ and $t^{L}(KG)$ are…
The main theorem (2.2) consists in two characterizations of isomorphisms of factorial domains in terms of prime or primary rings elements, and unramified, flat or weakly injective affine schemes morphisms. In order to apply this theorem to…
