We introduce two families of diagrammatic monoidal supercategories. The first family, depending on an associative superalgebra, generalizes the oriented Brauer category. The second, depending on an involutive superalgebra, generalizes the…

We study the residual monodromy representations associated to the Dwork family in characteristic two. Various applications involving 2-adic and mod 2 Galois representations are discussed. Combining the author's previous work with Tsuzuki…

Given an arrangement of hyperplanes in $\P^n$, possibly with non-normal crossings, we give a vanishing lemma for the cohomology of the sheaf of $q$-forms with logarithmic poles along our arrangement. We give a basis for the ideal $\cal J$…

Let Z be the germ of a complex hypersurface isolated singularity of equation f, with Z at least of dimension 2. We consider the family of analytic D-modules generated by the powers of 1/f and describe it in terms of the pole order…

Let $G$ be the group scheme $\operatorname{SL}_{d+1}$ over $\mathbb{Z}$ and let $Q$ be the parabolic subgroup scheme corresponding to the simple roots $\alpha_{2},\cdots,\alpha_{d-1}$. Then $G/Q$ is the $\mathbb{Z} $-scheme of partial flags…

This is an expository paper which gives a quick introduction to Dwork's conjecture about p-adic meromorphic continuation of his unit root zeta function arising from algebraic geometry. Special emphasis is given to the case of elliptic…

We consider the D-module defined as the push-forward of a rank one linear system on the complement of a central plane hyperplane arrangement, and calculate its decomposition series, using algebraic calculations in the Weyl algebra.

Let $I \subset R = \mathbb{F}[x_1,x_2]$ be a height two ideal minimally generated by three homogeneous polynomials of the same degree $d$, where $\mathbb{F}$ is a field of characteristic zero. We use the theory of $D$-modules to deduce…

This paper studies the formal deformations of differential algebra morphisms. As a consequence, we develop a cohomology theory of differential algebra morphisms to interpret the lower degree cohomology groups as formal deformations. Then,…

The aim of this work is to construct families of weighing matrices via their automorphism group action. This action is determined from the $0,1,2$-cohomology groups of the underlying abstract group. As a consequence, some old and new…

New methods for $D$-decomposition analysis are presented. They are based on topology of real algebraic varieties and computational real algebraic geometry. The estimate of number of root invariant regions for polynomial parametric families…

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…

In this dissertation we study the Hodge-Witt cohomology of the $d$-dimensional Drinfeld's upper half space $\mathcal{X} \subset \mathbb{P}_k^d$ over a finite field $k$. We consider the natural action of the $k$-rational points $G$ of the…

Dendrograms used in data analysis are ultrametric spaces, hence objects of nonarchimedean geometry. It is known that there exist $p$-adic representation of dendrograms. Completed by a point at infinity, they can be viewed as subtrees of the…

We describe the action of the Dwork-Frobenius operator on certain $A$-hypergeometric series. As a consequence, we obtain an integrality result for the coefficients of those series. This implies an integrality result for classical…

We describe explicitly the cohomology of the total complex of certain diagrams of invertible sheaves on normal toric varieties. These diagrams, called wheels, arise in the study of toric singularities associated to dimer models. Our main…

We determine the Picard-Fuchs equations of the generalized Dwork families by Katz. As an application, we compute the Frobenius matrix on the rigid cohomology of the family. This was originally done by Kloosterman, while we give an…

In this paper, we introduce the cohomology theory of $\mathcal{O}$-operators on Hom-associative algebras. This cohomology can also be viewed as the Hochschild cohomology of a certain Hom-associative algebra with coefficients in a suitable…
