For a finite-index $\mathrm{II}_1$ subfactor $N \subset M$, we prove the existence of a universal Hopf $\ast$-algebra (or, a discrete quantum group in the analytic language) acting on $M$ in a trace-preserving fashion and fixing $N$…

We provide the main results of a deformation theory of smooth formal schemes. First we deal with the case of global lifting of smooth morphisms. We prove that the obstruction to the existence of a global lifting lies in a Ext^1 group. Then…

Fix $k \geq 6$. We prove that any large enough finite group $G$ contains $k$ elements which span quadratically many triples of the form $(a,b,ab) \in S \times G$, given any dense set $S \subseteq G \times G$. The quadratic bound is…

Given a saturated fusion system $\mathcal{F}$ over a $2$-group $S$, we prove that $S$ is abelian provided any element of $S$ is $\mathcal{F}$-conjugate to an element of $Z(S)$. This generalizes a Theorem of Camina--Herzog, leading to a…

In this article we aim to develop from first principles a theory of sum sets and partial sum sets, which are defined analogously to difference sets and partial difference sets. We obtain non-existence results and characterisations. In…

We prove that a strongly $F$-regular scheme $X$ admits a finite, generically Galois, and \'etale-in-codimension-one cover $\widetilde X \to X$ such that the \'etale fundamental groups of $\widetilde X$ and $\widetilde X_{reg}$ agree.…

Let $k$ be a finitely generated field, let $X$ be an algebraic variety and $G$ a linear algebraic group, both defined over $k$. Suppose $G$ acts on $X$ and every element of a Zariski-dense semigroup $\Gamma \subset G(k)$ has a rational…

A topological group $X$ is defined to have $compact$ $exponent$ if for some number $n\in\mathbb N$ the set $\{x^n:x\in X\}$ has compact closure in $X$. Any such number $n$ will be called a compact exponent of $X$. Our principal result…

After recalling some basic facts about F-wound commutative unipotent algebraic groups over an imperfect field F we study their regular integral models over Dedekind schemes of positive characteristic and compute the group of isomorphisms…

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 $p>0$,…

Let $\mathcal C$ be a class of topological semigroups. A semigroup $X$ is called (1) $\mathcal C$-$closed$ if $X$ is closed in every topological semigroup $Y\in\mathcal C$ containing $X$ as a discrete subsemigroup, (2) $ideally$ $\mathcal…

The goal of this paper is to first define a Hodge theoretic fundamental group for smooth connected complex algebraic varieties and then prove and study a right exact sequence of Hodge theoretic fundamental groups associated to a smooth…

We give a new, geometric proof of the section conjecture for fixed points of finite group actions on projective curves of positive genus defined over the field of complex numbers, as well as its natural nilpotent analogue. As a part of our…

We prove that in either the convergent or overconvergent setting, an absolutely irreducible $F$-isocrystal on the absolute product of two or more smooth schemes over perfect fields of characteristic $p$, further equipped with actions of the…

The main result asserts: Let $G$ be a reductive, affine algebraic group and let $(\rho ,V)$ be a regular representation of $G$. Let $X$ be an irreducible $\mathbb{C}^{ \times } G$ invariant Zariski closed subset such that $G$ has a closed…

In this article we will describe a finitely presented subgroup of Monod's group of piecewise projective homeomorphisms of R. This in particular provides a new example of a finitely presented group which is nonamenable and yet does not…

We introduce the notions of proto-complete, complete, complete* and strong-complete objects in pointed categories. We show under mild conditions on a pointed exact protomodular category that every proto-complete (respectively complete)…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve over an algebraically closed field $k$. Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a Bruhat-Tits group scheme on $X$ which is generically semi-simple and trivial. We show that the \'etale fundamental group of the moduli stack…

In this paper, we establish a link between the structure theory of the pro-unipotent motivic fundamental group of the projective line minus three points and Diophantine geometry. In particular, we give a p-adic proof of Siegel's theorem.

Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field. Let $G$ be a non-trivial connected unipotent group, which acts effectively on an affine variety $X.$ Then every non-empty component $R$ of the set of fixed points of $G$ is a $K$-uniruled variety,…
