We study linear and hermitian representations of finite $C_2$-graded groups. We prove that the category of linear representations is equivalent to a category of antilinear representations as an $\infty$-category. We also prove that the…

The BMV conjecture states that for $n\times n$ Hermitian matrices $A$ and $B$ the function $f_{A,B}(t)=trace{\, } e^{tA+B}$ is exponentially convex. Recently the BMV conjecture was proved by Herbert Stahl. The proof of Herbert Stahl is…

We equip the complex polynomial algebra C[t] with the involution which is the identity on C and sends t to -t. Answering a question raised by V.G. Kac, we show that every hermitian or skew-hermitian matrix over this algebra is congruent to…

We show that every complete noetherian local commutative ring R with residue field k can be realized as a universal deformation ring of a continuous linear representation of a profinite group. More specifically, R is the universal…

In this article, we establish the Grothendieck-Serre conjecture over valuation rings: for a reductive group scheme $G$ over a valuation ring $V$ with fraction field $K$, a $G$-torsor over $V$ is trivial if it is trivial over $K$. This…

Let $R = Z[C]$ be the integral group ring of a finite cyclic group $C$. Dennis and al. proved that $R$ is a generalized Euclidean ring in the sense of P. M. Cohn, i.e., $SL_n(R)$ is generated by the elementary matrices for all $n$. We prove…

For a reductive group scheme over a regular semi-local ring, we prove an equivarinat version of the Gersten conjecture. We draw some interesting consequences for the representation rings of such reductive group schemes. We also prove the…

This paper establishes an analogue of the special chain theorem for the embedding dimension of polynomial rings, with direct application on the (embedding) codimension. In particular, we recover a classic result on the transfer of…

We prove that we can always construct strongly minimal linearizations of an arbitrary rational matrix from its Laurent expansion around the point at infinity, which happens to be the case for polynomial matrices expressed in the monomial…

We prove D\'{e}vissage theorems for Hermitian $K$ Theory (or $GW$ theory), analogous to Quillen's D\'{e}vissage theorem for $K$-theory. For abelian categories ${\mathscr A}:=({\mathscr A}, ^{\vee}, \varpi)$ with duality, and appropriate…

Stark-Heegner points are conjectural substitutes for Heegner points when the imaginary quadratic field of the theory of complex multiplication is replaced by a real quadratic field $K$. They are constructed analytically as local points on…

Let $z\in\mathbb C^n$ and $\|z\|$ be its Euclidean norm. Ebenfelt proposed a conjecture regarding the possible ranks of the Hermitian polynomials in $z,\bar z$ of the form $A(z,\bar z)\|z\|^2$, known as the SOS Conjecture, where SOS stands…

We describe a method for solving linear systems over the localization of a commutative ring $R$ at a multiplicatively closed subset $S$ that works under the following hypotheses: the ring $R$ is coherent, i.e., we can compute finite…

Let $X=(x_{ij})$ and $Y=(y_{ij})$ be generic $n$ by $n$ matrices and $Z=XY-YX$. Let $S=k[x_{11},...,x_{nn},y_{11},...,y_{nn}]$, where $k$ is a field, let $I$ be the ideal generated by the entries of $Z$ and let $R=S/I$. We give a conjecture…

We construct, for any finite commutative ring $R$, a family of representations of the general linear group $\mathrm{GL}_n(R)$ whose intertwining properties mirror those of the principal series for $\mathrm{GL}_n$ over a finite field.

In real Lie theory, matrices that admit a real logarithm reside in the identity component $\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbb{R})_+$ of the general linear group $\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbb{R})$, with logarithms in the Lie algebra…

We apply the algebraic consideration of holonomy systems to study Hermitian manifolds whose Chern connection is Ambrose-Singer and prove structure theorems for such manifolds. The main result (Theorem 1.2) asserts that the universal cover…

Motivated by classification, up to order isomorphism, of some dense subgroups of Euclidean space that are free of minimal rank, we obtain apparently new invariants for an equivalence relation (intermediate between Hermite and Smith) on…

In this paper, we resurrect a long-forgotten notion of equivalence for univariate polynomials with integral coefficients introduced by Hermite in the 1850s. We show that the Hermite equivalence class of a polynomial has a very natural…

Levin's conjecture has been established to hold true for group equations of length up to seven. Recently, it is shown that Levin's conjecture is also true (modulo exceptional cases) for some group equations of length eight and nine. In this…
