Let $S$ be an fs log scheme, and let $F$ be a group scheme over the underlying scheme which is \'etale locally representable by (1) a finite dimensional $\mathbb{Q}$-vector space, or (2) a finite rank free abelian group, or (3) a finite…
We provide an equivalence between the category of affine, smooth group schemes over the ring of generalized dual numbers $k[I]$, and the category of extensions of the form $1 \rightarrow \text{Lie}(G, I) \rightarrow E \rightarrow G…
The existence of a model structure on the category $\mathcal{D}$ of diffeological spaces is crucial to developing smooth homotopy theory. We construct a compactly generated model structure on the category $\mathcal{D}$ whose weak…
Over the past two decades several different approaches to defining a geometry over ${\mathbb F}_1$ have been proposed. In this paper, relying on To\"en and Vaqui\'e's formalism, we investigate a new category…
This paper develops a basic theory of H-groups. We introduce a special quotient of H-groups and extend some algebraic constructions of topological groups to the category of H-groups and H-maps. We use these constructions to prove some…
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…
In this paper, we classify several subcategories of the category of coherent sheaves on a noetherian divisorial scheme (e.g. a quasi-projective scheme over a commutative noetherian ring). More precisely, we classify the torsionfree (resp.…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p\ge 0$. Let $G$ be an affine group scheme over $k$. We classify the indecomposable exact module categories over the rigid tensor category $\text{Coh}_f(G)$ of coherent sheaves of…
Let \pi : X -> S be a finite type morphism of noetherian schemes. A smooth formal embedding of X (over S) is a bijective closed immersion X -> \frak{X}, where \frak{X} is a noetherian formal scheme, formally smooth over S. An example of…
We describe an algorithm for deciding whether or not a given finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent group is decomposable as the direct product of nontrivial subgroups.
Let $\mathcal F$ be a saturated fusion system on a finite $p$-group $S$, and let $P$ be a strongly $\mathcal F$-closed subgroup of $S$. We define the concept ``$\mathcal F$-essential subgroups with respect to $P$" which are some proper…
A. Vistoli observed that, if Grothendieck's section conjecture is true and $X$ is a smooth hyperbolic curve over a field finitely generated over $\mathbb{Q}$, then $\underline{\pi}_{1}(X)$ should somehow have essential dimension $1$. We…
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…
In the course of classifying the homogeneous permutations, Cameron introduced the viewpoint of permutations as structures in a language of two linear orders, and this structural viewpoint is taken up here. The majority of this thesis is…
This paper is the fourth in a series whose goal is to develop a fundamentally new way of building theories of physics. The motivation comes from a desire to address certain deep issues that arise in the quantum theory of gravity. Our basic…
Over a commutative noetherian ring $R$ of finite Krull dimension, we show that every complex of flat cotorsion $R$-modules decomposes as a direct sum of a minimal complex and a contractible complex. Moreover, we define the notion of a…
This is the second installment of an exposition of an ACL2 formalization of finite group theory. The first, which was presented at the 2022 ACL2 workshop, covered groups and subgroups, cosets, normal subgroups, and quotient groups,…
Let $\mathbb G = (G, +)$ be a group (either abelian or not). Given $X, Y \subseteq G$, we denote by $\langle Y \rangle$ the subsemigroup of $\mathbb G$ generated by $Y$, and we set $$\gamma(Y) := \sup_{y_0 \in Y} \inf_{y_0 \ne y \in Y} {\rm…
We define and study a class of subshifts of finite type (SFTs) defined by a family of allowed patterns of the same shape where, for any contents of the shape minus a corner, the number of ways to fill in the corner is the same. The main…
In this paper, we prove that, when an abelian scheme has semi-abelian degeneration along normal crossings divisor in a regular base scheme, a finite flat group scheme of torsion points of the abelian scheme degenerates to a log finite group…
