A {\em solvable} cover of a graph is a regular cover whose covering transformation group is solvable. In this paper, we show that a solvable cover of a graph can be decomposed into layers of abelian covers, and also, a lift of a given…
We study complex projective plane curves with a given group of automorphisms. Let $G$ be a simple primitive subgroup of $PGL(3, \mathbb{C})$, which is isomorphic to $A_{6}$, $A_{5}$ or $PSL(2, \mathbb{F}_{7})$. We obtain a necessary and…
We construct a model for the space of automorphisms of a connected p-compact group in terms of the space of automorphisms of its maximal torus normalizer and its root datum. As a consequence we show that any homomorphism to the outer…
The main aim of this article is to give new classes of smooth projective varieties over characteristic $p>0$ that admit flat liftings over the Witt vectors together with additional data (logarithmic structure and the Frobenius morphism) by…
Given a finite connected simple graph $\Gamma$, and a subgroup $G$ of its automorphism group, a general method for finding all finite abelian regular coverings of $\Gamma$ that admit a lift of each element of $G$ is developed. As an…
Let $\rho : G \rightarrow \operatorname{O}(V)$ be a real finite dimensional orthogonal representation of a compact Lie group, let $\sigma = (\sigma_1,\ldots,\sigma_n) : V \to \mathbb R^n$, where $\sigma_1,\ldots,\sigma_n$ form a minimal…
Let X be an irreducible smooth projective curve, of genus at least two, defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from two. If X admits a nontrivial automorphism \sigma that fixes pointwise all the order two…
The deformation problem for pseudoholomorphic curves and related geometrical properties of the total moduli space of pseudoholomorphic curves are studied. A sufficient condition for the saddle point property of the total moduli space is…
We show that any pointed, preordered module map $\mathfrak{BF}_{\mathrm{gr}}(E) \to \mathfrak{BF}_{\mathrm{gr}}(F)$ between Bowen-Franks modules of finite graphs can be lifted to a unital, graded, diagonal preserving $\ast$-homomorphism…
We solve the lifting problem for Galois representations in every dimension and in every characteristic. That is, we determine all pairs $(n,k)$, where $n$ is a positive integer and $k$ is a field of characteristic $p>0$, such that for every…
The sup-norm problem in analytic number theory asks for the largest value taken by a given automorphic form. We observe that the function-field version of this problem can be reduced to the geometric problem of finding the largest dimension…
The full automorphism group of a certain elementary abelian $p$-cover of the Hermitian curve in characteristic $p>0$ is determined. It is remarkable that the order of Sylow $p$-groups of the automorphism group is close to Nakajima's bound…
We look at AG codes associated to the projective line, re-examining the problem of determining their automorphism groups (originally investigated by Duer in 1987 using combinatorial techniques) using recent methods from algebraic geometry.…
It is conjectured that if k is an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 0, then any branched G-cover of smooth projective k-curves where the "KGB" obstruction vanishes and where a p-Sylow subgroup of G is cyclic lifts to…
Let $\mathcal{X}$ be an ordinary (projective, geometrically irreducible, nonsingular) algebraic curve of genus $\mathcal{g}(\mathcal{X}) \ge 2$ defined over an algebraically closed field $\mathbb{K}$ of odd characteristic $p$. Let…
Let $C$ be an irreducible projective plane curve in the complex projective space ${\mathbb{P}}^2$. The classification of such curves, up to the action of the automorphism group $PGL(3,{\mathbb{C}})$ on ${\mathbb{P}}^2$, is a very difficult…
Let K be an algebraically closed, complete non-Archimedean field. The purpose of this paper is to carefully study the extent to which finite morphisms of algebraic K-curves are controlled by certain combinatorial objects, called skeleta. A…
We show that a characteristic $0$ model $X_R\to \Spec R$, with Picard number $1$ over a geometric generic point, of a K3 surface in characteristic $p\ge 3$, essentially kills all automorphisms (Theorem 5.1). We show that there is an…
We show the existence of an anti-pluricanonical curve on every smooth projective rational surface X which has an infinite group G of automorphisms of either null entropy or of type Z . Z (semi-direct product), provided that the pair (X, G)…
We prove the existence of a potentially diagonalizable lift of a given automorphic mod $p$ Galois representation $\overline{\rho}:{\rm Gal}(\overline{F}/F)\longrightarrow {\rm GSp}_4(\overline{\mathbb{F}}_p)$ for any totally real field $F$…
