Using N=2 Landau-Ginzburg theories, we examine the recent conjectures relating the SU(3) WZW modular invariants, finite subgroups of SU(3) and Gorenstein singularities. All isolated three-dimensional Gorenstein singularities do not appear…
Using Cohen's classification of symplectic reflection groups, we prove that the parabolic subgroups, that is, stabilizer subgroups, of a finite symplectic reflection group are themselves symplectic reflection groups. This is the symplectic…
Let $P$ be a principal indecomposable module of a finite group $G$ in characteristic $2$ and let $\varphi$ be the Brauer character of the corresponding simple $G$-module. We show that $P$ affords a non-degenerate $G$-invariant quadratic…
We construct the finite-dimensional continuous complex representations of $\mathrm{SL}_2$ over compact discrete valuation rings of even residual characteristic. We also prove that the complex group algebras of $\mathrm{SL}_2$ over finite…
This paper uses previous results of the authors on vector-valued modular forms to study certain non-congruence modular forms. We prove that these forms have unbounded denominators, and in certain cases we verify congruences of…
Let C be a supersingular genus-2 curve over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 3. We show that if C is not isomorphic to the curve y^2 = x^5 + 1 then up to isomorphism there are exactly 20 degree-3 maps phi from C to the…
A representation $V$ of an algebraic group $G$ induces a vector bundle $[V/G] \to BG$. The representation $V$ of $G$ is neutral if, for every twisted form $\mathcal{V} \to \mathcal{G}$ of $[V/G] \to BG$ over a field $k$, we have…
Given a finite index subgroup of $SL_2(\mathbb Z)$ with modular curve defined over $\mathbb Q$, under the assumption that the space of weight $k$ ($ \ge 2$) cusp forms is $1$-dimensional, we show that a form in this space with Fourier…
Let $V$ be a simple vertex operator superalgebra and $G$ a finite automorphism group of $V$ containing the canonical automorphism $\sigma$ such that $V^G$ is regular. It is proved that every irreducible $V^G$-module occurs in an irreducible…
In a recent paper Chiodo and Farkas described the singular locus and the locus of non-canonical singularities of the moduli space of level curves. In this work we generalize their results to the moduli space $\overline{\mathcal R}_{g,G}$ of…
In this paper we completely classify all the special Cohen-Macaulay (=CM) modules corresponding to the exceptional curves in the dual graph of the minimal resolutions of all two dimensional quotient singularities. In every case we exhibit…
Let $F$ be a non-archimedean local field with residue field $\mathbb{F}_q$ and let $G = GL_{2/F}$. Let $\mathbf{q}$ be an indeterminate and let $H^{(1)}(\mathbf{q})$ be the generic pro-p Iwahori-Hecke algebra of the group $G(F)$. Let…
Let G be a subgroup of GL(V), where V is a finite dimensional vector space over a finite field of characteristic p >0. If det(g-1) = 0 for all g \in G then we call G a fixed-point subgroup of GL(V). Motivated in parallel by questions in…
It is one of the wonderful ``coincidences'' of the theory of finite groups that the simple group G of order 25920 arises as both a symplectic group in characteristic 3 and a unitary group in characteristic 2. These two realizations of G…
Let G be a simply connected simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field K of characteristic p>0 with root system R, and let ${\mathfrak g}={\cal L}(G)$ be its restricted Lie algebra. Let V be a finite dimensional ${\mathfrak…
We prove modularity of certain residually reducible ordinary 2-dimensional $p$-adic Galois representations with determinant a finite order odd character $\chi$. For certain non-quadratic $\chi$ we prove an $R=T$ result for $T$ the weight 1…
For a finite subgroup $G$ of $\operatorname{GL}(2, \mathbb C)$, we consider the moduli space ${\mathcal M}_\theta$ of $G$-constellations. It depends on the stability parameter $\theta$ and if $\theta$ is generic it is a resolution of…
Let G be a p-adic reductive group, and R an algebraically closed field. Let us consider a smooth representation of G on an R-vector space V. Fix an open compact subgroup K of G and a smooth irreducible representation of K on a…
We extend the framework of modular invariant supersymmetric theories to encompass invariance under more general discrete groups $\Gamma$, that allow the presence of several moduli and make connection with the theory of automorphic forms.…
We show that every discrete subgroup of $\mathrm{GL}(n,\mathbb{R})$ admits a finite dimensional classifying space with virtually cyclic stabilizers. Applying our methods to $\mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb{Z})$, we obtain a four dimensional…
