Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of graphs, and let $p,r$ be nonnegative integers. The \textsc{$(p,r,\mathcal{F})$-Covering} problem asks whether for a graph $G$ and an integer $k$, there exists a set $D$ of at most $k$ vertices in $G$ such…

If $f:S' \to S$ is a finite locally free morphism of schemes, we construct a symmetric monoidal "norm" functor $f_\otimes: \mathcal H_*(S') \to\mathcal H_*(S)$, where $\mathcal H_*(S)$ is the pointed unstable motivic homotopy category over…

For a fixed graph $H$, the $H$-Coloring problem asks whether a given graph admits an edge-preserving function from its vertex set to that of $H$. A seminal theorem of Hell and Ne\v{s}et\v{r}il asserts that the $H$-Coloring problem is…

Given a graph $G$, an integer $k\geq 0$, and a non-negative integral function $f:V(G) \rightarrow \mathcal{N}$, the Vector Domination problem asks whether a set $S$ of vertices, of cardinality $k$ or less, exists in $G$ so that every vertex…

Let $L/K$ be a finite, cyclic extension of number fields with Galois group $G$, and let $S$ be a finite set of primes of $K$ that includes all the infinite primes. In this paper, we study the $G$-cohomology of the $S$-id\`{e}le classes of…

Let $\Sigma_{g,*}$ be a once-punctured oriented surface of genus $g$. We study the action of the mapping class group $\Gamma_{g,*}$ on the $n^{th}$ rational cohomology of the configuration space $\text{Conf}_n(\Sigma_{g,*})$ of injections…

Let G be a simple, simply connected algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field k of positive characteristic p. Let \sigma:G->G be a strict endomorphism (i. e., the subgroup G(\sigma) of \sigma-fixed points is finite). Also,…

This thesis, done under the supervision of Filippo Viviani, is devoted to the study of the spectral correspondence for $G$-Higgs pairs, in the case of $G=SL(r,\mathbb{C})$, $PGL(r, \mathbb{C})$, $Sp(2r,\mathbb{C})$, $GSp(2r,\mathbb{C})$,…

Given a connected semisimple Lie group $G$, Monod has recently proved that the measurable cohomology of the $G$-action $H^*_m(G \curvearrowright G/P)$ on the Furstenberg boundary $G/P$, where $P$ is a minimal parabolic subgroup, maps…

Let F be a finitely generated discrete group. Given a covering map H to G of Lie groups with G either compact or complex reductive, there is an induced covering map Hom(F, H) to Hom(F, G). We show that when the fundamental group of G is…

Let $G$ be a complex connected reductive algebraic group that acts on a smooth complex algebraic variety $X$, and let $E$ be a $G$-equivariant algebraic vector bundle over $X$. A section of $E$ is regular if it is transversal to the zero…

Let F be a field, let G be its absolute Galois group, and let R(G, k) be the representation ring of G over a suitable field k. In this preprint we construct a ring homomorphism from the mod 2 Milnor K-theory k_*(F) to the graded ring gr…

In this paper we consider non-abelian 1-cohomology for groups with coefficients in other groups. We prove versions of the `five lemma' arising from this situation. We go on to show that a connected unipotent algebraic group Q acted on…

We establish some interactions between uniformly recurrent subgroups (URSs) of a group $G$ and cosets topologies $\tau_\mathcal{N}$ on $G$ associated to a family $\mathcal{N}$ of normal subgroups of $G$. We show that when $\mathcal{N}$…

Given a smooth complex surface S, and a compact connected global normal crossings divisor $D = \cup_i D_i$, we consider the local fundamental group, i.e., the fundamental group Gamma of T-D, where T is a good tubular neighbourhood of D. One…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$. Given an indecomposable G-module $M$, one can ask when it remains indecomposable upon restriction to the Frobenius kernel $G_r$, and when its…

Let $G_\mathbb R$ be a real reductive group and let $X$ be the corresponding complex symmetric variety under the Cartan bijection. We construct a stratified homeomorphism between the based polynomial arc group of $G_\mathbb R$ and the based…

A set $D\subseteq V$ is called a $k$-tuple dominating set of a graph $G=(V,E)$ if $\left| N_G[v] \cap D \right| \geq k$ for all $v \in V$, where $N_G[v]$ denotes the closed neighborhood of $v$. A set $D \subseteq V$ is called a liar's…

We study a Grothendieck topology on schemes which we call the $\mathrm{arc}$-topology. This topology is a refinement of the $v$-topology (the pro-version of Voevodsky's $h$-topology) where covers are tested via rank $\leq 1$ valuation…

Let $G$ be the group scheme $\operatorname{SL}_{d+1}$ over $\mathbb{Z}$ and let $Q$ be the parabolic subgroup scheme corresponding to the simple roots $\alpha_{2},\cdots,\alpha_{d-1}$. Then $G/Q$ is the $\mathbb{Z} $-scheme of partial flags…
