We formulate a conjecture characterizing smooth projective varieties in positive characteristic whose Frobenius morphism can be lifted modulo $p^2$ - we expect that such varieties, after a finite \'etale cover, admit a toric fibration over…

We introduce new motivic invariants of arbitrary varieties over a perfect field. These cohomological invariants take values in the category of one-motives (considered up to isogeny in positive characteristic). The algebraic definition of…

We show that there exists $k \in \bbn$ and $0 < \e \in\bbr$ such that for every field $F$ of characteristic zero and for every $n \in \bbn$, there exists explicitly given linear transformations $T_1,..., T_k: F^n \to F^n$ satisfying the…

In this paper, we introduce two generalizations of the tame subgroup of the automorphism group of a polynomial ring over a domain of positive characteristic. We study detailed structures of these new `tame subgroups' in the case of two…

In this small note we present a Tannakian proof of the theorem of Grothendieck-Harder on the classification of torsors under a reductive group on the projective line over a field.

We introduce and develop the notion of scalar extension for abelian categories. Given a field extension F'/F, to every F-linear abelian category A satisfying a suitable finiteness condition we associate an F'-linear abelian category A' and…

We introduce and study a new class of differential fields in positive characteristic. We call them separably differentially closed fields and demonstrate that they are the differential analogue of separably closed fields. We prove several…

We obtain two equivalent conditions for m polynomials in n variables to form a p-basis of a ring of constants of some polynomial K-derivation, where K is a UFD of characteristic p>0. One of these conditions involves jacobians, and the…

Given a rigid tensor-triangulated category and a vector space valued homological functor for which the K\"{u}nneth isomorphism holds, we construct a universal graded-Tannakian category through which the given homological functor factors. We…

We consider the derived category of permutation modules for a finite group, in positive characteristic. We stratify this tensor triangulated category using Brauer quotients. We describe the spectrum of its compact objects, by reducing the…

In this paper, we characterize the (generalized) Frobenius powers and critical exponents of two classes of monomial ideals of a polynomial ring in positive characteristic: powers of the homogeneous maximal ideal, and ideals generated by…

Let G be a group and V a finite dimensional representation of G over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p>0. Let $d_n(V)$ be the number of indecomposable summands of $V^{\otimes n}$ of nonzero dimension mod p. It is easy to…

The concept of double nonnegativity of matrices is generalized to doubly nonnegative tensors by means of the nonnegativity of all entries and $H$-eigenvalues. This generalization is defined for tensors of any order (even or odd), while it…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. In this paper we prove that fusion categories of Frobenius-Perron dimensions 84 and 90 are of Frobenius type. Combining this with previous results in the literature, we obtain…

Ostrowski's theorem implies that $\log(x),\log(x+1),\ldots$ are algebraically independent over $\mathbb{C}(x)$. More generally, for a linear differential or difference equation, it is an important problem to find all algebraic dependencies…

We answer a question of Abhyankar by constructing an algebraic closure of the field of power series over a field of positive characteristic, using "generalized power series". (The corresponding construction in characteristic 0 dates back to…

Ferdinand Georg Frobenius is generally considered the creator of character theory of finite groups. This achievement came from the study of the group determinant, which is the determinant of a matrix coming from the regular representation.…

The main theorem (2.2) consists in two characterizations of isomorphisms of factorial domains in terms of prime or primary rings elements, and unramified, flat or weakly injective affine schemes morphisms. In order to apply this theorem to…

For a reductive group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 0$ we construct the abelian category of perverse $\mathbb{F}_p$-sheaves on the affine Grassmannian that are equivariant with respect to the action of the…

Bernstein, Frenkel, and Khovanov have constructed a categorification of tensor products of the standard representation of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$, where they use singular blocks of category $\mathcal{O}$ for $\mathfrak{sl}_n$ and translation…
