We prove the Milnor conjecture for Lie groups and the Friedlander conjecture for complex algebraic Lie groups.
Representation theorems relate seemingly complex objects to concrete, more tractable ones. In this paper, we take advantage of the abstraction power of category theory and provide a general representation theorem for a wide class of…
We prove a version of the Tits alternative for groups acting on complete, finite rank median spaces. This shows that group actions on finite rank median spaces are much more restricted than actions on general median spaces. Along the way,…
In this work we discuss some appearances of semi-infinite combinatorics in representation theory. We propose a semi-infinite moment graph theory and we motivate it by considering the (not yet rigorously defined) geometric side of the story.…
We formulate and prove a version of the Segal Conjecture for infinite groups. For finite groups it reduces to the original version. The condition that G is finite is replaced in our setting by the assumption that there exists a finite model…
We prove new cases of the Tate conjecture for abelian varieties over finite fields, extending previous results of Dupuy--Kedlaya--Zureick-Brown, Lenstra--Zarhin, Tankeev, and Zarhin. Notably, our methods allow us to prove the Tate…
We describe new constructions of the infinite-dimensional representations of $U(\mathfrak{g})$ and $U_q(\mathfrak{g})$ for $\mathfrak{g}$ being $\mathfrak{gl}(N)$ and $\mathfrak{sl}(N)$. The application of these constructions to the quantum…
Let $k$ be a field and $X$ a smooth projective variety over $k$. When $k$ is a number field, the Beilinson-Bloch conjecture relates the ranks of the Chow groups of $X$ to the order of vanishing of certain $L$-functions. We consider the same…
We consider the tensor product of modules over the polynomial algebra corresponding to the usual tensor product of linear operators. We present a general description of the representation ring in case the ground field k is perfect. It is…
In this paper we show the failure of the integral Hodge/Tate conjecture for the product of an Enriques surface with a smooth odd-dimensional projective hypersurface. To do this, we use a specialization argument of Colliot-Th\'el\`ene…
We prove that the isomorphism problem for group algebras reduces to group algebras over finite extensions of the prime field. In particular, the modular isomorphism problem reduces to finite modular group algebras.
Let $k$ be a number field and $G$ be a finite group. Let $\mathfrak{F}_{k}^{G}(Q)$ be the family of number fields $K$ with absolute discriminant $D_K$ at most $Q$ such that $K/k$ is normal with Galois group isomorphic to $G$. If $G$ is the…
We show that the $\ell$-adic Tate conjecture for divisors on smooth proper varieties over finitely generated fields of positive characteristic follows from the $\ell$-adic Tate conjecture for divisors on smooth projective surfaces over…
Let $G$ be a reductive algebraic group over a $p$-adic field or number field $K$, and let $V$ be a $K$-linear faithful representation of $G$. A lattice $\Lambda$ in the vector space $V$ defines a model $\hat{G}_{\Lambda}$ of $G$ over…
We apply the theory of branches in Bruhat-Tits trees, developed in previous works by the second author and others, to the study of two dimensional representations of finite groups over the ring of integers of a number field. We provide a…
We construct a finitely presented group with property (T) which can not act on on reasonable spaces. Such group is constructed using an generalization of Hall embedding theorem, where property (T) is added at the expense of weakening the…
We introduce Thompson field theory, a class of toy models of conformal field theory in which Thompson's group T takes the role of a discrete analogue of the chiral conformal group. T and the related group F are discrete transformations of…
In contrast to the fact that there are only finitely many maximal arithmetic reflection groups acting on the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^n$, $n\geq 2$, we show that: (a) one can produce infinitely many maximal quasi-arithmetic reflection…
Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$ and let $G$ be a finite cyclic group of order $n$. In this note we prove, using induction on the number of prime divisors of $n$, that $R_K(G)/I \cong \mathbb{Z}[X]/\langle…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety over a finitely generated field $K$ of characteristic~$0$ and fix an embedding $K \subset \mathbb{C}$. The Mumford--Tate conjecture is a precise way of saying that certain extra structure on the…
