We prove various finiteness and representability results for cohomology of finite flat abelian group schemes. In particular, we show that if $f\colon X\rightarrow \mathrm{Spec}(k)$ is a projective scheme over a field $k$ and $G$ is a finite…

We give a characterization of flat affine connections on manifolds by means of a natural affine representation of the universal covering of the Lie group of diffeomorphisms preserving the connection. From the infinitesimal point of view,…

We study the structure of abelian extensions of the group $L_qG$ of $q$-differentiable loops (in the Sobolev sense), generalizing from the case of central extension of the smooth loop group. This is motivated by the aim of understanding the…

The affine general linear group acting on a vector space over a prime field is a well-understood mathematical object. Its elementary abelian regular subgroups have recently drawn attention in applied mathematics thanks to their use in…

Among all affine, flat, finitely presented group schemes, we focus on those that are pure, this includes all groups which are extensions of a finite locally free group by a group with connected fibres. We prove that over an arbitrary base…

We consider Abelian extensions of global symmetries of the form $A \to G \to K$, with $A$ finite (and similar higher-group structures). For a quantum field theory $\mathcal{T}$ with symmetry $G$, we compare gauging $G$ directly with gauging…

Let $F$ be a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$, let $\Omega_F$ be Drinfeld's upper half-plane over $F$ and let $G^0$ the subgroup of $GL_2(F)$ consisting of elements whose determinant has norm $1$. Let $\mathscr{L}$ be a torsion…

We prove a version of the Gindikin-Karpelevich formula for untwisted affine Kac-Moody groups over a local field of positive characteristic. The proof is geometric and it is based on the results of [1] about intersection cohomology of…

We start with a small paradigm shift about group representations, namely the observation that restriction to a subgroup can be understood as an extension-of-scalars. We deduce that, given a group $G$, the derived and the stable categories…

Let G be a connected simple adjoint p-adic group not isomorphic to a projective linear group PGL(m,D) of a division algebra D, or an adjoint ramified unitary group of a split hermitian form in 3 variables. We prove that G admits an…

In this article, we investigate symmetric designs admitting a flag-transitive and point-primitive affine automorphism group. We prove that if an automorphism group $G$ of a symmetric $(v,k,\lambda)$ design with $\lambda$ prime is…

We provide an affine cellular structure on the extended affine Hecke algebra and affine $q$-Schur algebra of type $A_{n-1}$ that is defined over $\mathbb{Z}\left[q^{\pm1}\right]$, that is, without an adjoined $q^{\frac{1}{2}}$. This is with…

This is an expository paper. It is well known that a linear transformation can be defined to have any desired action on a basis. From this fact, one can show that every group homomorphism from Z^k to R^d extends to a homomorphism from R^k…

An orbit polytope is the convex hull of an orbit under a finite group $G \leq \operatorname{GL}(d,\mathbb{R})$. We develop a general theory of possible affine symmetry groups of orbit polytopes. For every group, we define an open and dense…

We study algebraic and geometric properties of metric spaces endowed with dilatation structures, which are emergent during the passage through smaller and smaller scales. In the limit we obtain a generalization of metric affine geometry,…

We continue classification of finite groups which can be used as symmetry group of the scalar sector of the four-Higgs-doublet model (4HDM). Our objective is to systematically construct non-abelian groups via the group extension procedure,…

Let $G$ be a complex affine algebraic group, and let $\sigma_1$ and $\sigma_2$ be commuting anti-holomorphic involutions of $G$. We construct an algebraic family of algebraic groups over the complex projective line and a real structure on…

We generalize to the super context, the known fact that if an affine algebraic group $G$ over a commutative ring $k$ acts freely (in an appropriate sense) on an affine scheme $X$ over $k$, then the dur sheaf $X\tilde{\tilde{/}}G$ of…

This is an expanded version of the text ``Perverse Sheaves on Loop Grassmannians and Langlands Duality'', AG/9703010. The main new result is a topological realization of algebraic representations of reductive groups over arbitrary rings. We…

Let $K/F$ be a quadratic extension of $p$-adic fields, $\sigma$ the nontrivial element of the Galois group of $K$ over $F$, and $\pi$ a quasi-square-integrable representation of $GL(n,K)$. Denoting by $\pi^{\vee}$ the smooth contragredient…
