Let G be a reductive p-adic group, H(G) its Hecke algebra and S(G) its Schwartz algebra. We will show that these algebras have the same periodic cyclic homology. This might be used to provide an alternative proof of the Baum-Connes…
We calculate the group $\kappa_2$ of exotic elements in the $K(2)$-local Picard group at the prime $2$ and find it is a group of order $2^9$ isomorphic to $(\mathbb{Z}/8)^2 \times (\mathbb{Z}/2)^3$. In order to do this we must define and…
Let $S$ be a certain affine algebraic surface over $\mathbb{Q}$ such that it admits a regular map to $\mathbb{A}^2/\mathbb{Q}$. We show that any non-trivial torsion line bundle in the relative Picard group $Pic^0\left(S/\mathbb{A}^2\right)$…
This article treats the Picard group of the moduli (stack) of r-spin curves and its compactification. Generalized spin curves, or r-spin curves are a natural generalization of 2-spin curves (algebraic curves with a theta-characteristic),…
Recently, Gekeler proved that the group of invertible analytic functions modulo constant functions on Drinfeld's upper half space is isomorphic to the dual of an integral generalized Steinberg representation. In this note we show that the…
We present an explicit construction of the unitary irreducible representations of the two-dimensional Euclidean and Poincar\'e groups, together with their Spin double covers, by means of Mackey's theory of induced representations for…
Surface groups are known to be the Poincar\'e Duality groups of dimension two since the work of Eckmann, Linnell and M\"uller. We prove a prosolvable analogue of this result that allows us to show that surface groups are profinitely (and…
Let $G$ be a finite group of order $n$ and let $M$ be a $G$-module. We construct groups $H_*^\varkappa(G,M)$ for which $H_k^\varkappa (G,M^{tw}) \cong H^{n-k-1}_\lambda(G,M),$ where $M^{tw}$ is a twisting of a $G$-module $M$ defined in…
Previous work constructed a generalized truncated Brown-Peterson spectrum of chromatic height 2 at the prime 2 as an E_infinity-ring spectrum, based on the study of elliptic curves with level-3 structure. We show that the natural map…
We construct an integral model for Lubin-Tate curves as moduli of finite subgroups of formal deformations over complete Noetherian local rings. They are p-adic completions of the modular curves X_0(p) at a mod-p supersingular point. Our…
For strongly even $\mathbb{E}_{\infty}^{C_2}$-rings $E$ we show that any homotopy ring map $\mathrm{MU} \to E^e$ lifts to an $\mathbb{E}_{\rho}$-map $\mathrm{MU}_{\mathbb{R}} \to E$. This refines the Hahn-Shi Real orientations of Lubin-Tate…
The goal of this article is to show that five explicitly given transformations, a rotation, two screw Heisenberg rotations, a vertical translation and an involution generate the Euclidean Picard modular groups with coefficient in the…
We study $\mathrm{K}(h)$-local Spanier-Whitehead duality for $C_{2^n}$-equivariant Lubin-Tate spectra, $E_h$, at the prime $2$ and heights $h$ divisible by $2^{n-1}$. We determine a $C_{2^n}$-equivariant equivalence $DE_h\simeq\Sigma^{-V_h}…
Let $\operatorname{E}_2$ be the Morava E-theory of height 2 at the prime 2. In this paper, we compute the homotopy groups of $\operatorname{E}_2^{hC_6} \wedge \mathbb{R}P^2$ and $\operatorname{E}_2^{hC_6} \wedge \mathbb{R}P^2 \wedge…
We develop methods for computing the restriction map from the cohomology of the automorphism group of a height $dn$ formal group law (i.e., the height $dn$ Morava stabilizer group) to the cohomology of the automorphism group of an…
We compute the mod(p) homotopy groups of the continuous homotopy fixed point spectrum E_2^{hH_2} for p>2, where E_n is the Landweber exact spectrum whose coefficient ring is the ring of functions on the Lubin-Tate moduli space of lifts of…
In a previous paper we generalized the theory of W*-modules to the setting of modules over nonselfadjoint dual operator algebras, obtaining the class of weak*-rigged modules. At that time we promised a forthcoming paper devoted to other…
We prove an equidistribution result about Hecke orbits on the Picard group of Shimura curves coming from definite quaternion algebras over function fields. In particular, we show the equidistribution of Hecke orbits of supersingular…
Let $\mathcal U$ be the 2-category associated with $\mathfrak{sl}_2$. We prove that a complex of 1-morphisms of $\mathcal U$ is null-homotopic if and only if its image in every simple 2-representation is null-homotopic. Under mild…
We prove a recursive formula for the exterior and symmetric powers of modules for a cyclic 2-group. This makes computation straightforward. Previously, a complete description was only known for cyclic groups of prime order.
