Let $k$ be a field, $G$ be a finite group, $k(x(g):g\in G)$ be the rational function field with the variables $x(g)$ where $g\in G$. The group $G$ acts on $k(x(g):g\in G)$ by $k$-automorphisms where $h\cdot x(g)=x(hg)$ for all $h,g\in G$.…
Let $G$ be the group of rational points of a general linear group over a non-archimedean local field $F$. We show that certain representations of open, compact-mod-centre subgroups of $G$, (the maximal simple types of Bushnell and Kutzko)…
This is a long overdue write up of the following: If the fundamental group of a normal complex algebraic variety (respectively Zariski open subset of a compact K\"ahler manifold) is a solvable group of matrices over Q (respectively…
Over any partially ordered abelian group whose positive cone is closed in an appropriate sense and has finitely many faces, modules that satisfy a weak finiteness condition admit finite primary decompositions. This conclusion rests on the…
Let $k$ be any positive integer and $G$ a compact (Hausdorff) group. Let $\mf{np}_k(G)$ denote the probability that $k+1$ randomly chosen elements $x_1,\dots,x_{k+1}$ satisfy $[x_1,x_2,\dots,x_{k+1}]=1$. We study the following problem: If…
For those deformations that satisfy a certain non-degeneracy condition, we describe the structure of certain simple modules of the deformations of the subcharacter algebra of a finite group. For finite abelian groups, we prove that the…
We give two explicit versions of the decomposition theorem of Beilinson, Bernstein and Deligne applied to the universal family of quartic surfaces of $\mathbb{P}^3$. The starting point of our investigation is the remark that the nodes of a…
For any connected complex reductive group $G$ and element $z$ of its Weyl group $W$, we use work of Lusztig and Abreu-Nigro to compute the graded $W$-character of the intersection cohomology of any closed Lusztig variety for $z$ over the…

We explore the relationship between the Poisson deformation theory, birational geometry, and Springer theory of partial resolutions of affine symplectic singularities. Let $\rho: X' \rightarrow X$ be a crepant partial resolution of a…
Let $F$ be a non-Archimedean local field with odd characteristic $p$. Let $N$ be a positive integer and $G=Sp_{2N}(F)$. By work of Lomel\'i on $\gamma$-factors of pairs and converse theorems, a generic supercuspidal representation $\pi$ of…
Until a couple of years ago, the only known examples of Lie groups admitting left-invariant metrics with negative Ricci curvature were either solvable or semisimple. We use a general construction from a previous article of the second named…
Let $k$ be an odd integer $\ge 3$ and $N$ a positive integer such that $4 \mid N$. Let $\chi$ be an even Dirichlet character modulo $N$. Shimura decomposes the space of half-integral weight cusp forms $S_{k/2}(N,\chi)$ as a direct sum of…
We define a stratification of the moduli stack of coherent sheaves on an elliptic curve which allows us (1) to give an explicit description of the irreducible components of the global nilpotent cone of elliptic curves, (2) to establish an…
We determine the non-reduced components of global nilpotent cones in various cases of interest. In particular, under the appropriate coprimality conditions, we show: (1) the global nilpotent cone for an $L$-twisted…
For a reductive group $G$, we introduce a notion of singular support for cocomplete dualizable DG-categories equipped with a strong $G$-action. This is done by considering the singular support of the sheaves of matrix coefficients arising…

It was shown by Cellini and Papi that an ad-nilpotent ideal determines certain element of the affine Weyl group, and that there is a bijection between the ad-nilpotent ideals and the integral points of a simplex with rational vertices. We…
For positive integers $k$, $n$, and $g$ with $k\geq2$, we give a closed-form expression for the $k$-th $\mathbb{Z}_2$-zero-divisor cup length $\mathsf{zcl}_k(SP^n(N_g))$ of the $n$-th symmetric product $SP^n(N_g)$ of the closed…
