Let $p>2$ be a prime. We give examples of smooth absolutely irreducible representations of $\mathrm{GL}_2(\mathbb{Q}_{p^3})$ over $\mathbb{F}_{p^3}$ which are not admissible.
Algebraic varieties which are locally isomorphic to open subsets of affine space will be called {\em plain}. Plain varieties are smooth and rational. The converse is true for curves and surfaces, and unknown in general. It is shown that…
The aim of this paper is to present a construction of $t$-divisible designs for $t>3$, because such divisible designs seem to be missing in the literature. To this end, tools such as finite projective spaces and their algebraic varieties…
This article contains a noncommutative generalization of the topological path lifting problem. Noncommutative geometry has no paths and even points. However there are paths of *-automorphisms. It is proven that paths of *-automorphisms…
We prove field quantifier elimination for valued fields endowed with both an analytic structure and an automorphism that are $\sigma$-Henselian. From this result we can deduce various Ax-Kochen-Ersov type results with respect to…
An excellent ring of prime characteristic for which the Frobenius map is pure is also Frobenius split in many commonly occurring situations in positive characteristic commutative algebra and algebraic geometry. However, using a fundamental…
In this article we give explicit formulae for a lift of the relative Frobenius morphism between elliptic curves and show how one can compute this lift in the case of ordinary reduction in odd characteristic. Our theory can also be used in…
We find new examples of complex surfaces with countably many non-isomorphic algebraic structures. Here is one such example: take an elliptic curve $E$ in $\mathbb P^2$ and blow up nine general points on $E$. Then the complement $M$ of the…
We give elementary counterexamples to Kodaira vanishing in prime characteristic constructed as the projectivization of Frobenius pull-backs of natural bundles on the incidence variety of points and planes in projective n-space (n>2).
We consider dominant, generically algebraic, and tamely ramified (if the characteristic is positive) morphisms $\pi: X/S \to Y/S$, where Y,S are Noetherian and integral and X is a Krull scheme (e.g. normal Noetherian), and study the sheaf…
Unlike in characteristic 0, there are no non-trivial smooth varieties over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p>0 that are contractible in the sense of etale homotopy theory.
We show how to construct tilting bundles for a class of smooth projective varieties using characteristic $p$ methods. Given such a variety $X$, reduce it modulo a prime number and consider the direct image of the structure sheaf under the…
Let $X$ be a fixed projective scheme which is flat over a base scheme $S$. The association taking a quasi-projective $S$-scheme $Y$ to the scheme parametrizing $S$-morphisms from $X$ to $Y$ is functorial. We prove that this functor…
Generalizing the Moret-Bailly pencil of supersingular abelian surfaces to higher dimensions, we construct for each field of characteristic p>0 a smooth projective variety with trivial dualizing sheaf that does not formally lift to…
We define a solvable extension of the graph 2-step nilpotent Lie algebras of [5] by adding elements corresponding to the 3-cliques of the graph. We study some of their basic properties and we prove that two such Lie algebras are isomorphic…
In this article, a sequel to "Global Frobenius Liftability I" (math:1708:03777v2), we continue the development of a comprehensive theory of Frobenius liftings modulo $p^2$. We study compatibility of divisors and closed subschemes with…
In order to have cohomological operations for de Rham p-adic cohomology with coefficients as manageable as possible, the main purpose of this paper is to solve intrinsically and from a cohomological point of view the lifting problem of…
In this paper we study strongly coupled elliptic systems in non-variational form involving fractional Laplace operators. We prove Liouville type theorems and, by mean of the blow-up method, we establish a priori bounds of positive solutions…
Let X be a smooth projective hyperelliptic curve over an algeraically closed field k of prime characteristic p. The aim of this note is to find necessary and sufficient conditions on the automorphism group of the curve X to be lifted to…
A classical approach to investigate a closed projective scheme $W$ consists of considering a general hyperplane section of $W$, which inherits many properties of $W$. The inverse problem that consists in finding a scheme $W$ starting from a…
