We prove that every finite direct product of crystallographic groups arising from an irreducible root system (in the sense of Lie theory) is profinitely rigid (equiv. first-order rigid). This is a generalization of recent proofs of…

Let $\mathfrak F$ be a locally compact nonarchimedean field with residue characteristic $p$ and $G$ the group of $\mathfrak{F}$-rational points of a connected split reductive group over $\mathfrak{F}$. We define a torsion pair in the…

We show that the continuous \'etale cohomology groups $H^n_{\mathrm{cont}}(X,\mathbf{Z}_l(n))$ of smooth varieties $X$ over a finite field $k$ are spanned as $\mathbf{Z}_l$-modules by the $n$-th Milnor $K$-sheaf locally for the Zariski…

We formulate a conjecture characterizing smooth projective varieties in positive characteristic whose Frobenius morphism can be lifted modulo $p^2$ - we expect that such varieties, after a finite \'etale cover, admit a toric fibration over…

A compactness theorem is proved for a family of K\"{a}hler surfaces with constant scalar curvature and volume bounded from below, diameter bounded from above, Ricci curvature bounded and the signature bounded from below. Furthermore, a…

We show that the cohomology of the structure sheaf of smooth and proper schemes over a complete non-archimedean field $K$ of characteristic zero, can be refined to an $\mathbf{A}^1$-invariant cohomology theory of smooth (not necessarily…

We investigate the relation between the Hodge theory of a smooth subcanonical $n$-dimensional projective variety $X$ and the deformation theory of the affine cone $A_X$ over $X$. We start by identifying $H^{n-1,1}_{\mathrm{prim}}(X)$ as a…

We prove an index theorem concerning the pushforward of flat B-vector bundles, where B is an appropriate algebra. We construct the associated analytic torsion form T. If Z is a smooth closed aspherical manifold, we show that T gives…

Comodules over Hopf algebroids are of central importance in algebraic topology. It is well-known that a Hopf algebroid is the same thing as a presheaf of groupoids on Aff, the opposite category of commutative rings. We show in this paper…

This paper establishes strong profinite rigidity results for K\"ahler groups, showing that certain groups are determined within the class of residually finite K\"ahler groups by their profinite completion. Examples include products of…

A theorem of L\"utkebohmert states that a rigid group homomorphism from the formal multiplicative group to a smooth commutative rigid group $G$, with relatively compact image, can be extended to a homomorphism from the rigid multiplicative…

In this paper, we prove some rigidity theorems for compact Bach-flat $n$-manifold with the positive constant scalar curvature. In particular, our conditions in Theorem 1.4 have the additional properties of being sharp.

We prove that two arithmetically significant extensions of a field F coincide if and only if the Witt ring WF is a group ring Z/n[G]. Furthermore, working modulo squares with Galois groups which are 2-groups, we establish a theorem…

We adapt ideas from Ekedahl [Eke84] to prove a Serre-type duality for Witt-divisorial sheaves of $\mathbb Q$-Cartier divisors on a smooth projective variety over a perfect field of finite characteristic. We also explain its relationship to…

In this paper, we prove a dihedral extremality and rigidity theorem for a large class of codimension zero submanifolds with polyhedral boundary in warped product manifolds. We remark that the spaces considered in this paper are not…

This paper has two main goals. First, we prove nonabelian refinements of basechange theorems in \'etale cohomology (i.e., prove analogues of the classical statements for sheaves of spaces). Second, we apply these theorems to prove a number…

We give proofs of de Rham comparison isomorphisms for rigid-analytic varieties, with coefficients and in families. This relies on the theory of perfectoid spaces. Another new ingredient is the pro-etale site, which makes all constructions…

Let X be a Noetherian scheme of finite dimension and denote by rho the (additive inverse of the) morphism in SH(X) from S to Gm corresponding to the unit -1. Here SH(X) denotes the motivic stable homotopy category. We show that the category…

The cancellation theorem for Grothendieck-Witt-correspondences and Witt-correspondences between smooth varieties over an infinite prefect field $k$, $char k \neq 2$, is proved, the isomorphism…

We establish duality results for the cohomology of the Weil group of a $p$-adic field, analogous to, but more general than, results from Galois cohomology. We prove a duality theorem for discrete Weil modules, which implies Tate-Nakayama…
