We classify group schemes in terms of their Cartier modules. We also prove the equivalence of different definitions of the tangent space and the dimension for these group schemes; in particular, the minimal dimension of a formal group law…
We study the ramified Prym map $\mathcal P_{g,r} \longrightarrow \mathcal A_{g-1+\frac r2}^{\delta}$ which assigns to a ramified double cover of a smooth irreducible curve of genus $g$ ramified in $r$ points the Prym variety of the…
We prove a local-global principle for the embedding problems of global fields with restricted ramification. By this local-global principle, for a global field $k$, we use only the local information to give a presentation of the maximal…
Let $L$ be a finite extension of $\mathbf{Q}_p$. In this paper, we study the locally $\mathbf{Q}_p$-analytic generalized parabolic Steinberg representations of $\mathrm{GL}_n(L)$, and compute the $\mathrm{Ext}$-groups of locally…
We transfer Knapp-Stein $R$-groups for unitary weakly unramified characters between a $p$-adic quasi-split group and its non-quasi-split inner forms, and provide the structure of those $R$-groups for a general connected reductive group over…
The classical Brill-Noether theorems count the dimension of the family of maps from a general curve of genus g to non-degenerate curves of degree d in r-dimensional projective space. These theorems can be extended to include ramification…
We give a characterization of genuinely ramified maps of formal orbifolds in the Tannakian framework. In particular we show that a morphism is genuinely ramified if and only if the pullback of every stable bundle remains stable in the…
Let $k$ be a perfect field of characteristic $p > 2$, and let $K$ be a finite totally ramified extension over $W(k)[\frac{1}{p}]$ of ramification degree $e$. Let $R_0$ be a relative base ring over $W(k)\langle t_1^{\pm 1}, \ldots, t_m^{\pm…
We define a variant of normal basis, called a {\em Galois scaffolding}, that allows for an easy determination of valuation, and has implications for Galois module structure. We identify fully ramified, elementary abelian extensions of local…
Ramification for commutative ring spectra can be detected by relative topological Hochschild homology and by topological Andr\'e-Quillen homology. In the classical algebraic context it is important to distinguish between tame and wild…
Let $A$ be an affinoid integral domain over a non-Archimedean field $K$, and let $L$ be its field of fractions. We prove that the normalization of $A$ can be reconstructed from $L$ by taking the intersection of all maximal discrete…
We completely calculate the Fitting ideal of the classical $p$-ramified Iwasawa module for any abelian extension $K/k$ of totally real fields, using the shifted Fitting ideals recently developed by the second author. This generalizes former…
We examine the phenomenon of capitulation of the $p$-class group $H_K$ of a real number field $K$ in totally ramified cyclic p-extensions $L/K$ of degree $p^N$. Using an elementary property of the algebraic norm $\nu_{L/K}$, we show that…
We relate Fubini's theorem for Euler characteristics to Riemann-Hurwtiz formulae, and reprove a classical result of Iversen. The techniques used include algebraic geometry, complex geometry, and model theory. Possible applications to the…
For $p$ a prime and $a\in\mathbb{Q}$, where $a$ is not a $p^n$-th power of any rational number, the extension $\mathbb{Q}(w_n)/\mathbb{Q}$ where $w_n=\root p^n \of a$ is separable but non-normal. The Hopf-Galois theory for separable…
Let $K$ be a complete discrete valuation field whose residue field is perfect and of positive characteristic, let $X$ be a connected, proper scheme over $\mathcal{O}_K$, and let $U$ be the complement in $X$ of a divisor with simple normal…
We introduce new refinements of the Bell, factorial, and unsigned Stirling numbers of the first and second kind that unite the derangement, involution, associated factorial, associated Bell, incomplete Stirling, restricted factorial,…
In this paper, we describe restricted one-dimensional central extensions of all finite dimensional simple restricted Lie algebras defined over fields of characteristic $p\ge 5$.
We construct $p$-adic $L$-functions associated with $p$-refined cohomological cuspidal Hilbert modular forms over any totally real field under a mild hypothesis. Our construction is canonical, varies naturally in $p$-adic families, and does…
We prove that every connected affine scheme of positive characteristic is a K(pi, 1) space for the etale topology. The main ingredient is the special case of the affine space over a field k. This is dealt with by induction on n, using a key…
