For any coadjoint orbit $G/L$, we determine all useful terms of the associated Savelyev-Seidel morphism defined on $H_{-*}(\Omega G)$. Immediate consequences are: (1) the dimension of the kernel of the natural map $\pi_*(G)\otimes…
In this paper we study the arithmetic and invariant theory of genus one normal curves embedded in $\mathbb{P}^{n-1}$. We generalize the notion of genus one model of degree $n$, introduced by Cremona, Fisher and Stoll for $n \leq 5$, to…
We construct a globalization of Ferrand's norm functor over rings which generalizes it to the setting of a finite locally free morphism of schemes $T\to S$ of constant rank. It sends quasi-coherent modules over $T$ to quasi-coherent modules…
Let R be a connected noetherian commutative ring, and let G be a simply connected reductive group over R of isotropic rank ge 2. The elementary subgroup E(R) of G(R) is the subgroup generated by the R-points U_P^+(R) and U_P^-(R) of the…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective connected curve of genus $g\ge 2$ defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$. Let $G$ be a finite group, $P$ a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$ and $N_G(P)$ its normalizer in $G$. We show…
Given a flat, finite group scheme G finitely presented over a base scheme we introduce the notion of ramified Galois cover of group G (or simply G-cover), which generalizes the notion of G-torsor. We study the stack of G-covers, denoted…
It is shown that for the modular representations associated to Rational Conformal Field Theories, the kernel is a congruence subgroup whose level equals the order of the Dehn-twist. An explicit algebraic characterization of the kernel is…
We discuss the capitulation kernel associated to a degree n covering using Cech cohomology and the Kummer sequence. The main result is a five-term exact sequence that relates the capitulation kernel to the Cech cohomology of the n-th roots…
We interpret Galois covers in terms of particular monoidal functors, extending the correspondence between torsors and fiber functors. As applications we characterize tame $G$-covers between normal varieties for finite and \'etale group…
Let K(S) be the subgroup of the extended mapping class group, Mod(S), generated by Dehn twists about separating curves. In our earlier paper, we showed that Comm(K(S)) and Aut(K(S)) are both isomorphic to Mod(S) when S is a closed,…
In this article, we study the relative negative K-groups $K_{-n}(f)$ of a map $f: X \to S $ of schemes. We prove a relative version of the Weibel conjecture i.e. if $f: X \to S$ is a smooth affine map of noetherian schemes with $\dim S=d$…
Let S be a smooth affine algebraic curve, and let S' be the Riemann surface obtained by removing a point from S. We provide evidence for the congruence subgroup property of the mapping class group Mod(S') by showing that its congruence…
The first aim of this note is to fill a gap in the literature by proving that, given a global field $K$ and a finite set $\mathcal{S}$ of primes of $K$, every finite split embedding problem $G \rightarrow {\rm{Gal}}(L/K)$ over $K$ with…
Let K be the subgroup of the extended mapping class group, Mod(S), generated by Dehn twists about separating curves. Assuming that S is a closed, orientable surface of genus at least 4, we confirm a conjecture of Farb that Comm(K), Aut(K)…
In this paper we describe the fundamental group-scheme of a proper variety fibered over an abelian variety with rationally connected fibers over an algebraically closed field. We use old and recent results for the Nori fundamental…
For a list $\cal{L}$ of finite groups and for a profinite group $G$, we consider the intersection $T(G)$ of all open normal subgroups $N$ of $G$ with $G/N$ in $\cal{L}$. We give a cohomological characterization of the epimorphisms…
We study the $K$-theory and Swan theory of the group ring $R[G]$, when $G$ is a finite group and $R$ is any ring or ring spectrum. In this setting, the well-known assembly map for $K(R[G])$ has a companion called the coassembly map. We…
If f is a conformal mapping defined on a connected open subset of a Carnot group G, then either f is the composition of a translation, a dilation and an isometry, or G is the nilpotent Iwasawa component of a real rank 1 simple Lie group S,…
Let K/F be a finite Galois extension of global fields with Galois group G and let M be a 1-motive over F. We discuss the kernel and cokernel of the restriction map Sha^{i}(F,M) --> Sha^{i}(K,M)^{G} for i=1 and 2, independently of any…
In this paper, we study maps from reducible curves $f : C \cup_\Gamma D \to \mathbb{P}^r$. We restrict our attention to two cases: first, when $f|_D$ factors through a hyperplane $H$ and $f|_C$ is transverse to $H$; and second, when $r =…
