We consider the KZ connection associated with a family of hyperelliptic curves of genus $g$ over the ring of $p$-adic integers $\mathbb{Z}_p$. Then the dual connection is the Gauss-Manin connection of that family. We observe that the…

In this paper we define a relative rigid fundamental group, which associates to a section $p$ of a smooth and proper morphism $f:X\rightarrow S$ in characteristic $p$, a Hopf algebra in the ind-category of overconvergent $F$-isocrystals on…

The Grothendieck--Katz $p$-curvature conjecture predicts that an arithmetic differential equation whose reduction modulo $p$ has vanishing $p$-curvatures for {\em almost all} $p,$ has finite monodromy. It is known that it suffices to prove…

Suppose that $G$ is the group of $F$-points of a connected reductive group over $F$, where $F/\mathbb{Q}_p$ is a finite extension. We study the (topological) irreducibility of principal series of $G$ on $p$-adic Banach spaces. For unitary…

A result of Keel and McKernan states that a hypothetical counterexample to the F-conjecture must come from rigid curves on $\bar {M}_{0,n}$ that intersect the interior. We exhibit several ways of constructing rigid curves. In all our…

We construct a canonical sesquilinear pairing on the relative crystalline cohomology of a smooth proper family of varieties over a complete discretely valued $p$-adic field. Motivated by the role of Saito's higher residue pairing in the…

The main goal of this article is to construct some geometric invariants for the topology of the set $\mathcal{F}$ of flat connections on a principal $G$-bundle $P\,\longrightarrow\, M$. Although the characteristic classes of principal…

Let $C$ be a smooth curve over a finite field in characteristic $p$ and let $M$ be an overconvergent $F$-isocrystal over $C$. After replacing $C$ with a dense open subset $M$ obtains a slope filtration, whose steps interpolate the Frobenius…

The p-adic Simpson correspondence due to Faltings is a p-adic analogue of non-abelian Hodge theory. The following is the main result of this article: The correspondence for line bundles can be enhanced to a rigid analytic morphism of moduli…

We prove that any geometrically irreducible $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}_p$-local system on a smooth algebraic variety over a $p$-adic field $K$ becomes de Rham after a twist by a character of the Galois group of $K$. In particular, for any…

The relationship between comodules of a coring and flat connections is reviewed. In particular we specialise to corings which are built on a tensor product of algebra and a coalgebra. Such corings are in one-to-one correspondence with…

For a reductive group $G$, we prove that complex irreducible rigid $G$-local systems with quasi-unipotent monodromies and finite order abelianization on a smooth curve are motivic, generalizing a theorem of Katz for $GL_n$. We do so by…

The goal of this paper is to show a (derived) $p$-adic Simpson correspondence for (locally) unipotent coefficients on smooth rigid-analytic varieties. Our results depend on a deformation to $\mathbf{B}_\mathtt{dr}^+/\xi^2$, and not on a…

In this article, we consider perturbations of isometries on a compact Riemannian manifold $M$. We investigate the smooth (resp. analytic) rigidity phenomenon of groups of these isometries. As a particular case, we prove that if a finite…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0, and let $A = k[x,y]/(f)$ be a quasi-homogeneous plane curve. We show that for any graded torsion free A-module M, there exists a natural graded integrable connection, i.e. a graded…

We classify all closed, aspherical Riemannian manifolds M whose universal cover has indiscrete isometry group. One sample application is the theorem that any such M with word-hyperbolic fundamental group must be isometric to a negatively…

This paper is devoted to a systematic study and classification of invariant affine or metric connections on certain classes of naturally reductive spaces. For any non-symmetric, effective, strongly isotropy irreducible homogeneous…

The moduli space ${\mathcal{M}}_{g}$, of genus $g\geq2$ closed Riemann surfaces, is a complex orbifold of dimension $3(g-1)$ which carries a natural real structure i.e. it admits an anti-holomorphic involution $\sigma$. The involution…

The aim of this paper is to give a new method to construct explicit formulas for algebraic differential operators of any order on a finitely generated projective module $E$ on a commutative unital ring $A$. We moreover give explicit…

Given a morphism between smooth projective varieties $f: W \to X$, we study whether $f$-relatively free rational curves imply the existence of $f$-relatively very free rational curves. The answer is shown to be positive when the fibers of…
