Let $\mathbf{k}$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $\geq 7$ or zero. Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a tame order of global dimension $2$ over a normal surface $X$ over $\mathbf{k}$ such that…

Let $K$ be a global field of characteristic $p>0$. We study the cohomology of arithmetic subgroups $\Gamma $ of $SL_{n+1}(K)$ (with respect to a fixed place of $K$), under the hypothesis that these groups have no $p'$-torsion (any…

A part of Grothendieck's program for studying the Galois group $G_{\mathbb Q}$ of the field of all algebraic numbers $\overline{\mathbb Q}$ emerged from his insight that one should lift its action upon $\overline{\mathbb Q}$ to the action…

The main results of this article concern the definition of a compactly supported cohomology class for the congruence group $\Gamma_0(p^n)$ with values in the second Milnor $K$-group (modulo 2-torsion) of the ring of $p$-integers of the…

The level moduli space $A_g^{4,8}$ is mapped to the projective space by means of gradients of odd Theta functions, such a map turning out no to be injective in the genus 2 case. In this work a congruence subgroup $\Gamma$ is located between…

Every finite simple group P can be generated by two of its elements. Pairs of generators for P are available in the Atlas of finite group representations as (not neccessarily minimal) permutation representations P. It is unusual but…

A Lagrangian definition of a large family of (0,2) supersymmetric conformal field theories may be made by an appropriate gauge invariant combination of a gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten model, right-moving supersymmetry fermions, and left-moving…

Matrix representations of Hecke operators on classical holomorphical cusp forms and the corresponding period polynomials are well known. In this article we derive representations of Hecke operators for vector valued period functions for the…

Let G be a discrete group and $\Gamma$ an almost normal subgroup. The operation of cosets concatanation extended by linearity gives rise to an operator system that is embeddable in a natural C* algebra. The Hecke algebra naturally embeds as…

We derive explicit isomorphisms between certain congruence subgroups of the Siegel modular group, the Hermitian modular group over an arbitrary imaginary-quadratic number field and the modular group over the Hurwitz quaternions of degree 2…

In 1993, Brou\'{e}, Malle and Michel initiated the study of spetses on the Greek island bearing the same name. These are mysterious objects attached to non-real Weyl groups. In algebraic topology, a $p$-compact group $\mathbf{X}$ is a space…

This work examines the possible projectivity of 2-modular block parts of non-projective Lefschetz characters over 2-local geometries of several sporadic groups. Previously known results on $M_{12}$, $J_2$, and $HS$ are mentioned for…

In this paper, we explore a two-way connection between quasimodular forms of depth $1$ and a class of second-order modular differential equations with regular singularities on the upper half-plane and the cusps. Here we consider the cases…

We determine the normalizer in $SL_{2}(\mathbb{R})$ of several families of congruence subgroups of $SL_{2}(\mathbb{Z})$. In addition, we show how these tools can be used to evaluate the groups of automorphisms and the discriminant kernels…

We introduce a new technique for the study of the distribution of modular symbols, which we apply to congruence subgroups of Bianchi groups. We prove that if $K$ is a quadratic imaginary number field of class number one and $\mathcal{O}_K$…

We compare the homology of a congruence subgroup Gamma of GL_2(Z) with coefficients in the Steinberg modules over Q and over E, where E is a real quadratic field. If R is any commutative base ring, the last connecting homomorphism…

Consider a reductive $p$-adic group $G$, its (complex-valued) Hecke algebra $H(G)$ and the Harish-Chandra--Schwartz algebra $S(G)$. We compute the Hochschild homology groups of $H(G)$ and of $S(G)$, and we describe the outcomes in several…

To a set $\mathcal{B}$ of 4-subsets of a set $\Omega$ of size $n$ we introduce an invariant called the `hole stabilizer' which generalises a construction of Conway, Elkies and Martin of the Mathieu group $M_{12}$ based on Loyd's…

Let $p$ be a prime and let $S_2(\Gamma(p))$ be the space of weight $2$ cusp forms for the principal congruence subgroup $\Gamma(p)$. Then $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{F}_p)$ acts on $S_2(\Gamma(p))$ in a natural way. Around 1928, Hecke proved…

We determine the p-Kazhdan-Lusztig bases for antispherical (co)minuscule Hecke categories in all characteristics, and for spherical (co)minuscule Hecke categories in good characteristic. This is achieved using geometric and diagrammatic…
