The recent paper "A quantitative Doignon-Bell-Scarf Theorem" by Aliev et al. generalizes the famous Doignon-Bell-Scarf Theorem on the existence of integer solutions to systems of linear inequalities. Their generalization examines the number…
Let $G$ be a reductive group over a field $k$ of characteristic $\neq 2$, let ${\mathfrak g}=\Lie(G)$, let $\theta$ be an involutive automorphism of $G$ and let ${\mathfrak g}={\mathfrak k}\oplus{\mathfrak p}$ be the associated symmetric…
Using our previous construction of Eisenstein-like automorphic forms we derive formulae for the perturbative and non-perturbative parts for any group and representation. The result is written in terms of the weights of the representation…
We prove a case of the Grothendieck-Serre conjecture: let $R$ be a Noetherian semilocal flat algebra over a Dedekind domain such that all fibers of $R$ are geometrically regular; let $G$ be a simply-connected reductive $R$-group scheme…
Let $(R, \mf, k_R)$ be regular local $k$-algebra satisfying the weak Jacobian criterion, such that $k_R/k$ is an algebraic field extension. Let $D_R$ be the ring of $k$-linear differential operators of $R$. We give an explicit decomposition…
We give a new proof of rationality of stable commutator length (scl) of certain elements in surface groups: those represented by curves that do not fill the surface. Such elements always admit extremal surfaces for scl. These results also…
In a recent paper we introduced a much weaker and easy to verify structure than a model category, which we called a "weak fibration category". We further showed that a small weak fibration category can be "completed" into a full model…
Using the theory of moduli of curves, we establish various slope inequalities for general fibered surfaces. More precisely, we introduce the notion of functorial divisors on Artin stacks and prove a theorem concerning their effectiveness.…
We discuss how the presence of a suitable symmetry can guarantee the perturbative linearizability of a dynamical system - or a parameter dependent family - via the Poincar\'e Normal Form approach. We discuss this at first formally, and…
An ADE Dynkin diagram gives rise to a family of algebraic curves. In this paper, we use arithmetic invariant theory to study the integral points of the curves associated to the exceptional diagrams $E_6, E_7$, $E_8$. These curves are…
We construct a left semi-model category of "marked strict $\infty$-categories" for which the fibrant objects are those whose marked arrows satisfy natural closure properties and are weakly invertible. The canonical model structure on strict…
Let $k$ be a nonperfect separably closed field. Let $G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group defined over $k$. We study rationality problems for Serre's notion of complete reducibility of subgroups of $G$. In particular, we present the…
We investigate the positivity and extension of invertible sheaves on group homogeneous spaces over coherent bases. Bypassing the failure of standard limit arguments and the classical Weil--Cartier correspondence, we develop a valuative…
Let $G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field %$k$ of characteristic $p > 0$. Our first aim in this note is to give concise and uniform proofs for two fundamental and deep results in the context…
Let R be a commutative noetherian ring. Denote by mod R the category of finitely generated R-modules. In the present paper, we first provide various sufficient (and necessary) conditions for a full subcategory of mod R to be a Serre…
For a proper action by a locally compact group $G$ on a manifold $M$ with a $G$-equivariant Spin-structure, we obtain obstructions to the existence of complete $G$-invariant Riemannian metrics with uniformly positive scalar curvature. We…
We prove a version of Blattner's conjecture, for irreducible subquotients of principal series representations with integral infinitesimal character of a real reductive Lie group whose Beilinson-Bernstein D-module is supported on a K-orbit…
We elucidate the key role played by formality in the theory of characteristic and resonance varieties. We show that the I-adic completion of the Alexander invariant of a 1-formal group G is determined solely by the cup-product map in low…
Graphs which generalize the simple or affine Dynkin diagrams are introduced. Each diagram defines a bilinear form on a root system and thus a reflection group. We present some properties of these groups and of their natural "Coxeter…
This paper introduces the notion of a derived splinter. Roughly speaking, a scheme is a derived splinter if it splits off from the coherent cohomology of any proper cover. Over a field of characteristic 0, this condition characterises…
