We give a combinatorial proof of a theorem of Gromov, which extends the scope of small cancellation theory to group presentations arising from labelled graphs.

In this paper, we study the covering theory of laura algebras. We prove that if a connected laura algebra is standard (that is, it is not quasi-tilted of canonical type and its connecting components are standard), then this algebra has nice…

Let $\rho$ be the $p$-adic Galois representation attached to a cuspidal, regular algebraic, polarizable automorphic representation of $GL_n$. Assuming only that $\rho$ satisfies an irreducibility condition, we prove the vanishing of the…

In this short research note we obtain a reduction theorem for the non-vanishing of the first Hochschild cohomology of block algebras of finite groups with non-trivial defect groups. Along the way we investigate this problem for the blocks…

We prove appropriate generic vanishing theorems for singular varieties, generalizing the well-known generic vanishing theorem by Green and Lazarsfeld in [GL87] and the generic vanishing theorem of Nakano type in [PS13]. Our theorem explains…

Let G be a reductive algebraic group over a field of prime characteristic. One can associate to G (or subgroups thereof) its Lie algebra, its Frobenius kernels, and the finite Chevalley group of points over a finite field. The…

In this short note, we classify pairs of conjugacy classes of the symmetric group such that any non-linear irreducible character of the symmetric group vanishes on at least one of them.

We show vanishing of the second $L^p$-cohomology group for most semisimple algebraic groups of rank at least 3 over local fields. More precisely, we show this result for $\SL(4)$, for simple groups of rank $\geq 4$ that are not of…

Let G be a finitely generated linear group over a field of characteristic 0. Suppose that every solvable subgroup of G is polycyclic. Then the claim is made that any solvable subgroup of G is separable. This is proven for G=SL_n(Z).…

In this paper we introduce a new homology theory devoted to the study of families such as semi-algebraic or subanalytic families and in general to any family definable in an o-minimal structure (such as Denjoy-Carleman definable or $ln-exp$…

We prove the following vanishing theorem. Let M be an irreducible symmetric space of noncompact type whose dimension exceeds 2 and $M\ne SO_0(2,2)/SO(2)\tm SO(2).$ Let E be any vector bundle over M, Then any E-valued $L^2$ harmonic 1-form…

Given an embedded smooth projective variety Y in CP^n, we show how the existence of a hypersurface with high multiplicity along Y, but of relatively low degree and log canonical near Y implies vanishing of higher cohomology for certain…

The goal of this paper is to remove the irreducibility hypothesis in a theorem of Richard Taylor describing the image of complex conjugations by $p$-adic Galois representations associated with regular, algebraic, essentially self-dual,…

We extend the main vanishing theorem in a paper of de Fernex and Ein to singular varieties without assuming locally complete intersection.

We explore a relationship between the classical representation theory of a complex, semisimple Lie algebra \g and the resonance varieties R(V,K)\subset V^* attached to irreducible \g-modules V and submodules K\subset V\wedge V. In the…

We give a purely local proof, in the depth 0 case, of the result by Harris-Taylor which asserts that the local Langlands correspondence for GL_n over a p-adic field K realizes itself inside the vanishing cycle cohomology of the deformation…

On a Riemannian manifold we define a one-parameter family of Laplacians acting on sections of any bundle associated to the principal frame bundle via a representation, and show how various examples fit into this framework.

Let $A$ be an excellent two-dimensional normal local ring containing an algebraically closed field and let $X\to \mathrm{Spec} (A)$ be a resolution of singularity. We prove a theorem giving a condition under which the dimension of the…

We establish the Kodaira vanishing theorem and the Kawamata-Viehweg vanishing theorem for lc generalized pairs. As a consequence, we provide a new proof of the base-point-freeness theorem for lc generalized pairs. This new approach allows…

We use the toric degeneration of Bott-Samelson varieties and the description of cohomolgy of line bundles on toric varieties to deduce vanishings results for the cohomology of lines bundles on Bott-Samelson varieties.
