Let $G$ be an almost linear Nash group, namely, a Nash group that admits a Nash homomorphism with finite kernel to some $\GL_k(\mathbb R)$. A smooth \Fre representation $V$ with moderate growth of $G$ is called homologically finite if the…

Let G be a noncocompact irreducible arithmetic group over a global function field K of characteristic p, and let H be a finite-index, residually p-finite subgroup of G. We show that the cohomology of H in the dimension of its associated…

We prove various finiteness and representability results for cohomology of finite flat abelian group schemes. In particular, we show that if $f\colon X\rightarrow \mathrm{Spec}(k)$ is a projective scheme over a field $k$ and $G$ is a finite…

Assume that $G$ is a virtually torsion-free solvable group of finite rank and $A$ a $\mathbb ZG$-module whose underlying abelian group is torsion-free and has finite rank. We stipulate a condition on $A$ that ensures that $H^n(G,A)$ and…

We prove explicit and elementary formulas for the group homology and cohomology of a finite group with coefficients in any module. We describe in elementary terms the cohomology algebra $H^*(G,k)$ as a graded algebra for a finite group $G$…

The (co)homological dimension of homomorphism $\phi:G\to H$ is the maximal number $k$ such that the induced homomorphism is nonzero for some $H$-module. The following theorems are proven: THEOREM 1. For every homomorphism $\phi:G\to H$ of a…

Let $F$ be a polynomial mappping from $\mathbb{C}^n$ to $\mathbb{C}^q$ with $n>q$. We study the De Rham cohomology of its fibres and its relative cohomology groups, by introducing a special fibre $F^{-1}(\infty)$ "at infinity" and its…

Let $G$ be a reductive algebraic group defined over a non-Archimedean local field $F$ of residue characteristic $p$. Let $\sigma$ be an automorphism of $G$ of order $\ell$ -- a prime number -- with $\ell\neq p$. Let $\Pi$ be a finite length…

We define, for any group $G$, finite approximations ; with this tool, we give a new presentation of the profinite completion $\hat{\pi} : G \to \hat{G}$ of an abtract group $G$. We then prove the following theorem : if $k$ is a finite prime…

Let $G$ be the linear algebraic group $SL_3$ over a field $k$ of characteristic two. Let $A$ be a finitely generated commutative $k$-algebra on which $G$ acts rationally by $k$-algebra automorphisms. We show that the full cohomology ring…

We show that an infinite group $G$ definable in a $1$-h-minimal field admits a strictly $K$-differentiable structure with respect to which $G$ is a (weak) Lie group, and show that definable local subgroups sharing the same Lie algebra have…

The idea that the cohomology of finite groups might be fruitfully approached via the cohomology of ambient semisimple algebraic groups was first shown to be viable in the papers [CPS75] and [CPSvdK77]. The second paper introduced, through a…

Let $G$ be a discrete group. The topological category of finite dimensional unitary representations of $G$ is symmetric monoidal under direct sum and has an associated $\mathbb{E}_\infty$-space $\mathcal{K}^{\mathrm{def}}(G)$. We show that…

Arithmetic duality theorems over a local field $k$ are delicate to prove if $\mathrm{char} k > 0$. In this case, the proofs often exploit topologies carried by the cohomology groups $H^n(k, G)$ for commutative finite type $k$-group schemes…

Let k be a non archimedean field. If X is a k-algebraic variety and U a locally closed semi-algebraic subset of X^{an} -- the Berkovich space associated to X -- we show that for l \neq char(\tilde{k}), the cohomology groups H^i_c (\bar{U},…

Given two algebraic groups $G$, $H$ over a field $k$, we investigate the representability of the functor of morphisms (of schemes) $\mathbf{Hom}(G,H)$ and the subfunctor of homomorphisms (of algebraic groups) $\mathbf{Hom}_{\rm gp}(G,H)$.…

For a finite group $G$, let $\text{rdim}(G)$ denote the smallest dimension of a faithful, complex linear representation of $G$. It is clear that $\text{rdim}(H)\leq \text{rdim}(G)$ for any subgroup $H$ of $G$. We consider $G$ with the…

Let G be a linear algebraic group defined over a field k. We prove that, under mild assumptions on k and G, there exists a finite k-subgroup S of G such that the natural map H^1(K, S) -> H^1(K, G) is surjective for every field extension…

We describe the Segal $K$-theory of the symmetric monoidal category of finite-dimensional vector spaces over a perfect field $\mathbb{F}$ together with an automorphism, or, equivalently, the group-completion of the $E_\infty$-algebra of…

The regular representation of an essentially finite 2-group $\mathbb{G}$ in the 2-category $\mathbf{2Vect}_k$ of (Kapranov and Voevodsky) 2-vector spaces is defined and cohomology invariants classifying it computed. It is next shown that…
