We show that in positive characteristic special loci of deformation spaces of rank one $\ell$-adic local systems are quasilinear. From this we deduce the Hard Lefschetz theorem for rank one $\ell$-adic local systems and a generic vanishing…

Let $K$ be a complete discrete valuation field whose residue field is perfect and of positive characteristic, let $X$ be a connected, proper scheme over $\mathcal{O}_K$, and let $U$ be the complement in $X$ of a divisor with simple normal…

The goal of this paper is to show a (derived) $p$-adic Simpson correspondence for (locally) unipotent coefficients on smooth rigid-analytic varieties. Our results depend on a deformation to $\mathbf{B}_\mathtt{dr}^+/\xi^2$, and not on a…

If E is a non-isotrivial elliptic curve over a global function field F of odd characteristic we show that certain Mordell-Weil groups of E have 1-dimensional eigenspace relative to a fixed complex ring class character provided that the…

For open and singular varieties in positive characteristic p we study the existence of an integral p-adic cohomology theory which is finitely generated, compatible with log crystalline cohomology and rationally compatible with rigid…

Given a Galois cover $Y \to X$ of smooth projective geometrically connected curves over a complete discrete valuation field $K$ with algebraically closed residue field, we define a semistable model of $Y$ over the ring of integers of a…

Fix a scheme $S$ of characteristic $p$. Let $\mathscr{M}$ be an $S$-algebraic stack and let $\mbox{Fdiv}(\mathscr{M})$ be the stack of $\mbox{F}$-divided objects, that is sequences of objects $x_i\in\mathscr{M}$ with isomorphisms…

We revisit Gersten's $\ell^\infty$-cohomology of groups and spaces, removing the finiteness assumptions required by the original definition while retaining its geometric nature. Mirroring the corresponding results in bounded cohomology, we…

Let G be a simple, simply connected algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field k of positive characteristic p. Let \sigma:G->G be a strict endomorphism (i. e., the subgroup G(\sigma) of \sigma-fixed points is finite). Also,…

This paper studies the structure of the Mordell--Weil groups of semiabelian varieties over algebraic extensions of number fields whose absolute Galois group is finitely generated, with particular emphasis on that generated by a single…

We study nilpotent groups acting faithfully on complex algebraic varieties. We use a method of base change. For finite p-groups, we go from $k$, a number field, to a finite field in order to use counting lemmas. We show that a finite…

We show that the mod p cohomology of a smooth projective variety with semistable reduction over K, a finite extension of Qp, embeds into the reduction modulo p of a semistable Galois representation with Hodge-Tate weights in the expected…

Consider the algebraic dynamics on a torus T=G_m^n given by a matrix M in GL_n(Z). Assume that the characteristic polynomial of M is prime to all polynomials X^m-1. We show that any finite equivariant map from another algebraic dynamics…

Let ${\cal M}_{g,[n]}$, for $2g-2+n>0$, be the D-M moduli stack of smooth curves of genus $g$ labeled by $n$ unordered distinct points. The main result of the paper is that a finite, connected \'etale cover ${\cal M}^\l$ of ${\cal…

Let $X$ be a variety (possibly non-complete or singular) over a finitely generated field $k$ of characteristic $0$. For a prime number $\ell$, let $\rho_\ell$ be the Galois representation on the first $\ell$-adic cohomology of $X$. We show…

The classical discrete $p$-Hardy inequality establishes a sharp relationship between the $\ell^{p}$-norms of a sequence and its discrete derivative. In this paper, we generalize this inequality to discrete derivatives of arbitrary integer…

Let $K$ be a field with a discrete valuation, and let $p$ and $\ell$ be (possibly equal) primes which are not necessarily different from the residue characteristic. Given a superelliptic curve $C : y^p = f(x)$ which has split degenerate…

Let $F$ be a non-archimedean local field and $G$ the $F$-points of a connected simply-connected reductive group over $F$. In this paper, we study the unipotent $\ell$-blocks of $G$, for $\ell \neq p$. To that end, we introduce the notion of…

We show that the local-global divisibility in commutative algebraic groups defined over number fields can be tested on sets of primes of arbitrary small density, i.e. stable and persistent sets. We also give a new description of the…

Let $X$ be a smooth scheme over a finite field of characteristic $p$. In answer to a conjecture of Deligne, we establish that for any prime $\ell \neq p$, an $\ell$-adic Weil sheaf on $X$ which is algebraic (or irreducible with finite…
