Given an abelian algebraic group $A$ over a global field $F$, $\alpha \in A(F)$, and a prime $\ell$, the set of all preimages of $\alpha$ under some iterate of $[\ell]$ generates an extension of $F$ that contains all $\ell$-power torsion…

In this paper we consider the definition of " monodromy of an angle valued map" based on linear relations as proposed in Burghelea-Haller (3). This definition provides an alternative treatment of monodromy and computationally an alternative…

We study the notion of regular singularities for parameterized complex ordinary linear differential systems, prove an analogue of the Schlesinger theorem for systems with regular singularities and solve both a parameterized version of the…

Let C_g be a general curve of genus g>3. Guralnick and others proved that the monodromy group of a cover C_g-> P^1 of degree n is either S_n or A_n. We show that A_n occurs for n>2g. The corresponding result for S_n is classical.

We define a monodromy homomorphism for irreducible families of regular elliptic fibrations which takes values in the mapping class group of a punctured sphere. We compute the monodromy for elliptic fibrations only which contain no singular…

We give a new proof - not using resolution of singularities - of a formula of Denef and the second author expressing the Lefschetz number of iterates of the monodromy of a function on a smooth complex algebraic variety in terms of the Euler…

A classical theorem of Fritz John allows one to describe a convex body, up to constants, as an ellipsoid. In this article we establish similar descriptions for generalized (i.e. multidimensional) arithmetic progressions in terms of proper…

An algebraic version of a theorem due to Quillen is proved. More precisely, for a ground field k we consider the motivic stable homotopy category SH(k) of P^1-spectra equipped with the symmetric monoidal structure described in…

Normality equations describe Newtonian dynamical systems admitting normal shift of hypersurfaces. They were first derived in Euclidean geometry, then in Riemannian geometry. Recently they were rederived in more general case, when geometry…

Recently, a geometrical characterization of vector spaces served to generalize them into a new class of algebras. Instead of the algebraic properties of the underlying fields, we generalized the recently discovered property of such spaces…

A representation of finite-dimensional probabilistic models in terms of formally real Jordan algebras is obtained, in a strikingly easy way, from simple assumptions. This provides a framework in which real, complex and quaternionic quantum…

In the category of monoids we characterize monomorphisms that are normal, in an appropriate sense, to internal reflexive relations, preorders or equivalence relations. The zero-classes of such internal relations are first described in terms…

We survey the theory of the compactified Jacobian associated to a singular curve. We focus on describing low genus examples using the Abel map.

This paper studies the space of monodromy data of second order $q$-difference equations through the framework of WKB analysis. We compute the connection matrices associated to the Stokes phenomenon of WKB wavefunctions and develop a general…

We prove structure theorems for the moduli stack of elliptic curves equipped with $G$-structures, where $G$ is a finite 2-generated metabelian group. In particular, we show that if $G$ has exponent $e$, then there is a subgroup $H\le…

We study the notion of the Lie-holomorph of a Leibniz algebra, recently introduced by N. P. Souris as a generalisation of the classical holomorph construction for Lie algebras. We establish a connection between the Lie-holomorph…

This is an introductory paper about the category of regular oriented matroids (ROMs). We compare the homotopy types of the categories of regular and binary matroids. For example, in the unoriented case, they have the same fundamental group…

We start with definitions of the general notions of the theory of $\Bbb Z_{2}$-graded algebras. Then we consider theory of inductive families of $\Bbb Z_{2}$-graded semisimple finite-dimensional algebras and its representations in the…

Let $F$ be a non-archimedean local field with residue field $\mathbb{F}_q$ and let $G = GL_{2/F}$. Let $\mathbf{q}$ be an indeterminate and let $H^{(1)}(\mathbf{q})$ be the generic pro-p Iwahori-Hecke algebra of the group $G(F)$. Let…

This paper continues the study of generalized amalgamation properties. Part of the paper provides a finer analysis of the groupoids that arise from failure of 3-uniqueness in a stable theory. We show that such groupoids must be abelian and…
