We introduce the notion of a homological integral for an infinite-dimensional weak Hopf algebra and use the homological integral to prove several structure theorems. For example, we prove that the Artin--Schelter property and the Van den…

In this paper we establish a connection between the cohomology of a modular Lie algebra and its p-envelopes. We also compute the cohomology of Zassenhaus algebras and their minimal p-envelopes with coefficients in generalized baby Verma…

We study reducing invariants of modules related to certain homological properties. For modules of finite reducing projective dimension, we establish grade inequalities. We prove that if $\mathbb{P}$ is the (uniform) Auslander condition, or…

The self-closeness number $N\mathcal{E}(X)$ of a space $X$ is the least integer $k$ such that any self-map is a homotopy equivalence whenever it is an isomorphism in the $n$-th homotopy group for each $n\le k$. We discuss the self-closeness…

Let $\Gamma_{0,n}^+(p)\subset \mathrm{SL}_n(\mathbb{Z})$ be the congruence subgroup of level-$p$ whose first column is of the form $(*,0,\dots,0)^t\bmod p$. We prove that the top-dimensional cohomology group…

Let $P(x)$ be a polynomial of degree $m$, with nonnegative and non-decreasing coefficients. We settle the conjecture that for any positive real number $d$, the coefficients of $P(x+d)$ form a unimodal sequence, of which the special case $d$…

We give elementary proofs for the Apagodu-Zeilberger-Stanton-Amdeberhan-Tauraso congruences $$\sum\limits_{n=0}^{p-1}\dbinom{2n}{n} \equiv\eta_{p}\mod p^{2},$$ $$\sum\limits_{n=0}^{rp-1}\dbinom{2n}{n}…

Cohomology of Specht modules for the symmetric group can be equated in low degrees with corresponding cohomology for the Borel subgroup B of the general linear group GL_d(k), but this has never been exploited to prove new symmetric group…

Let $G$ be a compact connected Lie group and let $\xi,\nu$ be complex vector bundles over the classifying space $BG$. The problem we consider is whether $\xi$ contains a subbundle which is isomorphic to $\nu$. The necessary condition is…

We show that if $B$ is a block of a finite group algebra $kG$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of prime characteristic $p$ such that $\HH^1(B)$ is a simple Lie algebra and such that $B$ has a unique isomorphism class of simple…

Studies the cohomology of p-central, powerful, p-groups with a certain extension property. These groups are naturally associated to Lie algebras. The paper develops a machinery that calculates the first few terms of the Bockstein spectral…

Let $p$ be a prime number, $G$ be a finite $p$-group and $K$ be a field of characteristic $p$. The Modular Isomorphism Problem (MIP) asks whether the group algebra $KG$ determines the group $G$. Dealing with MIP, we investigated a question…

We prove that groups that are mod-p-homology equivalent are isomorphic modulo any term of their derived p-series, in precise analogy to Stallings' 1963 result for the lower-central p-series. Similarly spaces that are mod-p-homology…

For a finitely generated module $M$, over a commutative Noetherian local ring $(R, \mathfrak{m})$, it is shown that there exist only a finite number of non--isomorphic top local cohomology modules $\mathrm{H}_{\mathfrak{a}}^{\mathrm{dim}…

We prove that for any Borel probability measure $\mu$ on $\mathbb R^n$ there exists a set $X\subset \mathbb R^n$ of $n+1$ points such that any $n$-variate quadratic polynomial $P$ that is nonnegative on $X$ (i.e. $P(x)\geq 0$, for every $x…

We give homotopy invariant definitions corresponding to three well known properties of complete intersections, for the ring, the module theory and the endomorphisms of the residue field, and we investigate them for the mod p cochains on a…

In deformation-rigidity theory it is often important to know whether certain bimodules are weakly contained in the coarse bimodule. Consider a bimodule $H$ over the group algebra $\mathbb{C}[\Gamma]$, with $\Gamma$ a discrete group. The…

We continue the study of the representation theory of a regular weak multiplier bialgebra with full comultiplication, started in arXiv:1306.1466, arXiv:1311.2730. Yetter-Drinfeld modules are defined as modules and comodules, with…

Theorem. Let M be a compact, connected, oriented smooth Riemannian n-manifold with non-empty boundary. Then the cohomology of the complex (Harm*(M),d) of harmonic forms on M is given by the direct sum H^p(Harm*(M),d) = H^p(M;R) +…

We will prove several congruences modulo a power of a prime such as $$ \sum_{0<k_1<...<k_{n}<p}\leg{p-k_{n}}{3} {(-1)^{k_{n}}\over k_1... k_{n}}\equiv {lll} -{2^{n+1}+2\over 6^{n+1}} p B_{p-n-1}({1\over 3}) &\pmod{p^2} &{if $n$ is odd}…
