For a reductive group scheme $G$ over a semilocal Dedekind ring $R$ with total ring of fractions $K$, we prove that no nontrivial $G$-torsor trivializes over $K$. This generalizes a result of Nisnevich-Tits, who settled the case when $R$ is…

Given a reductive group $\boldsymbol{\mathrm{G}}$ over a base scheme $S$, Brylinski and Deligne studied the central extensions of a reductive group $\boldsymbol{\mathrm{G}}$ by $\boldsymbol{\mathrm{K}}_2$, viewing both as sheaves of groups…

This paper has two parts. We first survey recent efforts on the Bloom conjecture which still remains open in the case of complex dimension at least 4. Bloom's conjecture concerns the equivalence of three regular types. There is a more…

We prove a surface embedding theorem for 4-manifolds with good fundamental group in the presence of dual spheres, with no restriction on the normal bundles. The new obstruction is a Kervaire-Milnor invariant for surfaces and we give a…

Let k be a separably closed field. Let G be a reductive algebraic k-group. In this paper, we study Serre's notion of complete reducibility of subgroups of G over k. In particular, using the recently proved center conjecture of Tits, we show…

Assume that R is a semi-local regular ring containing an infinite perfect field, or that R is a semi-local ring of several points on a smooth scheme over an infinite field. Let K be the field of fractions of R. Let H be a strongly inner…

We study an admissible subcategory of the Bondal quiver which conjecturally does not admit any Bridgeland stability conditions. Specifically, we prove that its Serre functor coincides with the spherical twist associated with a $3$-spherical…

We generalize the notion of graph minors to all (finite) simplicial complexes. For every two simplicial complexes H and K and every nonnegative integer m, we prove that if H is a minor of K then the non vanishing of Van Kampen's obstruction…

In this short note we prove a version of Bertini's theorem for unipotent rigid fundamental groups, stating that for every smooth, projective, geometrically connected variety $X$ over an infinite perfect field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$,…

We prove the refined Loughran--Smeets conjecture of Loughran--Rome--Sofos for a wide class of varieties arising as products of conic bundles. One interesting feature of our varieties is that the subordinate Brauer group may be arbitrarily…

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic zero, and let $i$ and $n$ be positive integers with $i\geq 2$ and $n>i$. Consider a non-invertible $k$-derivation $d_i$ of the polynomial ring $k[x_1,\ldots,x_i]$. Let $d_n$ be an extension of $d_i$ to a…

We show that if v is an axially symmetric suitable weak solution to the Navier Stokes equations (in the sense of L. Caffarelli, R. Kohn & L. Nirenberg) such that the radial component of v has a higher regularity (i.e. satisfies weighted…

This paper contains a proof of a conjecture of Breuil and Schneider, on the existence of an invariant norm on any locally algebraic representation of $\GL(n)$, with integral central character, whose smooth part is given by a generalized…

We extend Carter's notion of admissible diagrams and attach a "Dynkin-like" diagram to each reduced reflection factorization of an element in a finite Weyl group. We give a complete classification for the diagrams attached to reduced…

The main result of this paper (Theorem B) asserts that under natural conditions, any weakly-split Tits system in G(k), G a reductive or quasi-reductive group over an arbitrary field k, is the standard one.

The Grothendieck--Serre conjecture predicts that every generically trivial torsor under a reductive group scheme $G$ over a regular local ring $R$ is trivial. We settle it in the case when $G$ is quasi-split and $R$ is unramified. Some of…

We prove that for every smooth projective integral curve $X$ of genus at least $2$ over $\mathbb C$, there exists $x \in X(\mathbb C)$ such that no connected finite \'etale cover of $X-\{x\}$ admits a nonconstant morphism to $\mathbb G_m$.…

In this work, we prove global existence of solutions for second order differential problems in a general framework. More precisely, we consider second order differential inclusions involving proximal normal cone to a set-valued map. This…

We give an example of a local normal domain $R$ such that the map of Grothendieck groups $\G(R) \to \G(\hat R)$ is not injective. We also raise some questions about the kernel of that map.

Let $G$ be a group containing a nilpotent normal subgroup $N$ with central series $\{N_j\}$, such that each $N_j/N_{j+1}$ is a $\mathbb{F}$-vector space over a field $\mathbb{F}$ and the action of $G$ on $N_j/N_{j+1}$ induced by the…
