In this paper we introduce constructible analogs of the discrete complexity classes $\mathbf{VP}$ and $\mathbf{VNP}$ of sequences of functions. The functions in the new definitions are constructible functions on $\mathbb{R}^n$ or…

Polynomial functors are useful in the theory of data types, where they are often called containers. They are also useful in algebra, combinatorics, topology, and higher category theory, and in this broader perspective the polynomial aspect…

A survey of properties of the adjunction involving a semisymmetrization functor, which was suggested by J.D.H. Smith, and which maps the category of quasigroups with homotopies to the category of semisymmetric quasigroups with…

We develop theory and examples of monoidal functors on tensor categories in positive characteristic that generalise the Frobenius functor from \cite{Os, EOf, Tann}. The latter has proved to be a powerful tool in the ongoing classification…

Simplicial presheaves on cartesian spaces provide a general notion of smooth spaces. There is a corresponding smooth version of the singular complex functor, which maps smooth spaces to simplicial sets. We consider the localisation of the…

A kind of unstable homotopy theory on the category of associative rings (without unit) is developed. There are the notions of fibrations, homotopy (in the sense of Karoubi), path spaces, Puppe sequences, etc. One introduces the notion of a…

We extend the framework of combinatorial model categories, so that the category of small presheaves over large indexing categories and ind-categories would be embraced by the new machinery called class-combinatorial model categories. The…

Generalizing the theory of parity sheaves on complex algebraic stacks due to Juteau-Mautner-Williamson, we develop a theory of twisted equivariant parity sheaves. We use this formalism to construct a modular incarnation of Lusztig and Yun's…

For a variety $X$ separated over a perfect field of characteristic $p>0$ which admits an embedding into a smooth variety, we establish an anti-equivalence between the bounded derived categories of Cartier crystals on $X$ and constructible…

Let p be a prime number. We give a conjecture of a sheaf-theoretic nature which is equivalent to the strong form of the Tate conjecture for smooth, projective varieties X over F_p: for all n>0, the order of pole of the Hasse-Weil zeta…

Let $X$ be a quasi-compact quasi-separated $p$-adic formal scheme that is smooth either over a perfectoid $\mathbb{Z}_p$-algebra or over some ring of integers of a $p$-adic field. We construct a fully faithful functor from perfect complexes…

Lafforgue and Genestier-Lafforgue have constructed the global and (semisimplified) local Langlands correspondences for arbitrary reductive groups over function fields. We establish various properties of these correspondences regarding…

Given a finite group $G$ and a prime $p$, we establish the sieve formula, which is a congruence containing as summands numbers of chains of $p$-subgroups of $G$ of certain orders. This generalises the Theorem of Sylow-Frobenius, using…

We study the homological algebra in the category $\mathcal{P}_p$ of strict polynomial functors of degree $p$ over a field of positive characteristic $p$. We determine the decomposition matrix of our category and we calculate the Ext-groups…

Let $\mathbb{k}$ be a field of characteristic $p$. We introduce a formalism of mixed sheaves with coefficients in $\mathbb{k}$ and showcase its use in representation theory. More precisely, we construct for all quasi-projective schemes $X$…

Let p at least 5 be prime. We construct a fully faithful functor from the derived category of all smooth p-adic representations of GL_2(Q_p) (with a fixed central character) to a derived category of Ind-coherent sheaves on a stack of…

We prove that the homotopy theory of parsummable categories (as defined by Schwede) with respect to the underlying equivalences of categories is equivalent to the usual homotopy theory of symmetric monoidal categories. In particular, this…

Let $\sigma$ be a simple involution of an algebraic semisimple group $G$ and let $H$ be the subgroup of $G$ of points fixed by $\sigma$. If the restricted root system is of type $A$, $C$ or $BC$ and $G$ is simply connected or if the…

Smith theory says that the fixed point of a semi-free action of a group $G$ on a contractible space is ${\bb Z}_p$-acyclic for any prime factor $p$ of $G$. Jones proved the converse of Smith theory for the case $G$ is a cyclic group acting…
