We introduce some notions of invariant elementary definability which extend the notions of first-order order-invariant definability, and, more generally, definability invariant with respect to arbitrary numerical relations. In particular,…

Local-order-invariant (first-order) logic is an extension of first-order logic where formulae have access to a ternary local order relation on the Gaifman graph, provided that the truth value does not depend on the specific order relation…

We introduce the logic FOCN(P) which extends first-order logic by counting and by numerical predicates from a set P, and which can be viewed as a natural generalisation of various counting logics that have been studied in the literature. We…

Many-valued models generalise the structures from classical model theory by defining truth values for a model with an arbitrary algebra. Just as algebraic varieties provide semantics for many non-classical propositional logics, models…

Let $O_F$ be the ring of integers of a totally real field $F$ of degree $g$. We study the reduction of the moduli space of separably polarized abelian $O_F$-varieties of dimension $g$ modulo $p$ for a fixed prime $p$. The invariants and…

Let $F/F^+$ be a CM extension and $H_{/F^+}$ a definite unitary group in three variables that splits over $F$. We describe Hecke isotypic components of mod $p$ algebraic modular forms on $H$ at first principal congruence level at $p$ and…

Semiring semantics of first-order logic generalises classical Boolean semantics by permitting truth values from a commutative semiring, which can model information such as costs or access restrictions. This raises the question to what…

We consider a variant of a question of N. Koblitz. For an elliptic curve $E/\Q$ which is not $\Q$-isogenous to an elliptic curve with torsion, Koblitz has conjectured that there exists infinitely many primes $p$ such that…

We study algebraic locality principles on a 2+1D closed lattice in the presence of a Gauss law for a non-invertible symmetry. Prior work in arXiv:2509.03589 showed that when enforcing the Gauss law of an invertible symmetry, the principle…

A successor-invariant first-order formula is a formula that has access to an auxiliary successor relation on a structure's universe, but the model relation is independent of the particular interpretation of this relation. It is well known…

With every locally compact group $G$, one can associate several interesting bi-invariant subspaces $X(G)$ of the weakly almost periodic functions $\mathrm{WAP}(G)$ on $G$, each of which captures parts of the representation theory of $G$.…

The relations and differences between various classification problems arising in the context of local two-dimensional conformal QFT, modular invariants, and subfactors are discussed. The extent to which locality implies modular invariance,…

Let $M$ be a Hopf--von Neuman algebra with the predual $M_*$ and $WAP(M)$ the subspace in $M$ composed of weakly almost periodic functionals on $M_*$. The main example of such an algebra is $M=L^\infty(\mathbb G)$ for a locally compact…

Let $p$ be an odd prime. For field extensions $L/\mathbb{Q}_p$ with Galois group isomorphic to the dihedral group $D_{2p}$ of order $2p$, we consider the problem of computing a basis of the associated order in each Hopf Galois structure and…

We use modular invariant theory to establish a complete set of relations of the mod $p$ homology of $\{QS^k\}_{k\geq0}$, for $p$ odd, as a ring object in the category of coalgebras (also known as a coalgebraic ring or a Hopf ring). We also…

We discuss two extensions of results conjectured by Nick Kuhn about the non-realization of unstable algebras as the mod $p$ singular cohomology of a space, for $p$ a prime. The first extends and refines earlier work of the second and fourth…

Let $F$ be a local field over $\mathbf{Q}_p$ or $\mathbf{F}_p((t))$, and let $D$ be a central simple division algebra over $F$ of degree $d$. In the $p$-adic case, we assume $p>de+1$ where $e$ is the ramification degree over $\mathbf{Q}_p$;…

Let p be a prime number, and let k be an imaginary quadratic field in which p decomposes into two primes \mathfrak{p} and \bar{\mathfrak{p}}. Let k_\infty be the unique Z_p-extension of k which is unramified outside of \mathfrak{p}, and let…

Let F = F_p for any fixed prime p >= 2. An affine-invariant property is a property of functions on F^n that is closed under taking affine transformations of the domain. We prove that all affine-invariant property having local…
