Let $K=k(C)$ be the function field of a smooth projective curve $C$ over an infinite field $k$, let $X$ be a projective variety over $k$. We prove two results. First, we show with some conditions that a $K$-morphism $\phi: X_K \to X_K$ of…

Let $G$ be a reductive algebraic group---possibly non-connected---over a field $k$ and let $H$ be a subgroup of $G$. If $G= GL_n$ then there is a degeneration process for obtaining from $H$ a completely reducible subgroup $H'$ of $G$; one…

We show that every $\mu$-constant family of isolated hypersurface singularities of type f(x) + tg(x), where t is a parameter, is topologically trivial. In the proof we construct explicitely a vector field trivializing the family. The proof…

Let $V_r(\Sigma)$ be the generalised Thompson group defined as the automorphism group of a valid, bounded, and complete Cantor algebra. We show that that for every $n>0$ there is a $k>n,$ such that there exists a $k$-dimensional…

The main contribution of this manuscript is a local normal form for Hamiltonian actions of Poisson-Lie groups $K$ on a symplectic manifold equipped with an $AN$-valued moment map, where $AN$ is the dual Poisson-Lie group of $K$. Our proof…

It is proved that any supersimple field has trivial Brauer group, and more generally that any supersimple division ring is commutative. As prerequisites we prove several results about generic types in groups and fields whose theory is…

We construct a homomorphism $f$ from the braid group $B_{2n+2}$ on $2n+2$ strands to the Steinberg group associated with the Lie type $C_n$ and with integer coefficients. This homomorphism lifts the well-known symplectic representation of…

We exhibit a finitely generated group $\M$ whose rational homology is isomorphic to the rational stable homology of the mapping class group. It is defined as a mapping class group associated to a surface $\su$ of infinite genus, and…

In the setting of symplectic manifolds which are convex at infinity, we use a version of the Aleksandrov maximum principle to derive uniform estimates for Floer solutions that are valid for a wider class of Hamiltonians and almost complex…

For $G$ a split semi-simple group scheme and $P$ a principal $G$-bundle on a relative curve $X\to S$, we study a natural obstruction for the triviality of $P$ on the complement of a relatively ample Cartier divisor $D \subset X$. We show,…

The Hilbert space of a free massless particle moving on a group manifold is studied in details using canonical quantisation. While the simplest model is invariant under a global symmetry, $G \times G$, there is a very natural way to…

We consider locally conformal Kaehler geometry as an equivariant, homothetic Kaehler geometry (K,\Gamma). We show that the de Rham class of the Lee form can be naturally identified with the homomorphism projecting \Gamma to its dilation…

Let $F$ be a non-archimedean local field of characteristic different from $2$ and $G$ be either an odd special orthogonal group ${\rm SO}_{2r+1}(F)$ or a symplectic group ${\rm Sp}_{2r}(F)$. In this paper, we establish the local converse…

We construct, for any symplectic, unitary or special orthogonal group over a locally compact nonarchimedean local field of odd residual characteristic, a type for each Bernstein component of the category of smooth representations, using…

Let $G$ be a compact connected semisimple Lie group. We extend the techniques of Weinstein [W] to give a construction in group cohomology of symplectic forms $\omega$ on \lq twisted' moduli spaces of representations of the fundamental group…

We describe a locally trivial quantum principal U(1)-bundle over the quantum space S^2_{pq} which is a noncommutative analogue of the usual Hopf bundle. We also provide results concerning the structure of its total space algebra…

Let M be the product of \C P^m and \C P^n, with the standard integral symplectic form. We prove that the inclusion map from the group of symplectic automorphisms of M to its diffeomorphism group is not surjective on homotopy groups. More…

A group homomorphism $i: H \to G$ is a localization of $H$ if for every homomorphism $\varphi: H\rightarrow G$ there exists a unique endomorphism $\psi: G\rightarrow G$, such that $i \psi=\varphi$ (maps are acting on the right). G\"{o}bel…

If X and Y are orthogonal hyperdefinable sets such that X is simple, then any group G interpretable in (X,Y) has a normal hyperdefinable X-internal subgroup N such that G/N is Y-internal; N is unique up to commensurability. In order to make…

An automorphism $u$ of a vector space is called unipotent of index $2$ whenever $(u-\mathrm{id})^2=0$. Let $b$ be a non-degenerate symmetric or skewsymmetric bilinear form on a vector space $V$ over a field $\mathbb{F}$ of characteristic…
