The realization problem asks which algebras can be realized as the cohomology of spaces. We study this problem in the context of the orders in a graded rational exterior algebra on three generators. An order is a subring whose underlying…

Let $R$ be a commutative noetherian ring and $f: X \to \mathrm{Spec} R$ a proper smooth morphism, of relative dimension $n$. From Hartshorne, Residues and Duality, Springer, 1966, one knows that the trace map $\mathrm{Tr}_f :…

We prove that the cohomology algebra of a conilpotent Lie coalgebra is generated in degree 1 as an A-infinity algebra. By dualizing, the same is true about cohomology algebras of finite dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras. In the process, we…

We prove that the classical algebraic varieties over algebraically closed fields can be defined over arbitrary fields $k.$ Then we prove that for associative algebras $A$, there exist local representing objects $A_M$ for simple modules $M.$…

We define algebraic structures on graph cohomology and prove that they correspond to algebraic structures on the cohomology of the spaces of imbeddings of S^1 or R into R^n. As a corollary, we deduce the existence of an infinite number of…

Let $X$ be an algebraic scheme over an algebraically closed field and $\ell$ a prime number invertible on $X$. According to classical results (due essentially to A. Grothendieck, M. Artin and P. Deligne), the \'etale cohomology groups…

In this paper we study the \'etale cohomology groups associated to abelian varieties. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for an abelian variety to have semistable reduction (or purely additive reduction which becomes semistable…

Following ideas of Lawvere and Linton we prove that classical varieties are precisely the exact categories with a varietal generator. This means a strong generator which is abstractly finite and regularly projective. An analogous…

This paper uses a relative of BP-cohomology to prove a theorem in characteristic p algebra. Specifically, we obtain some new necessary conditions for the existence of sums-of-squares formulas over fields of characteristic p > 2. These…

We express explicitly the integral closures of some ring extensions; this is done for all Bring-Jerrard extensions of any degree as well as for all general extensions of degree < 6; so far such an explicit expression is known only for…

Huayi Chen introduces the notion of an approximable graded algebra, which he uses to prove a Fujita-type theorem in the arithmetic setting, and asked if any such algebra is the graded ring of a big line bundle on a projective variety. This…

Let $A$ be a $K$-subalgebra of the polynomial ring $S=K[x_1,\ldots,x_d]$ of dimension $d$, generated by finitely many monomials of degree $r$. Then the Gauss algebra $\GG(A)$ of $A$ is generated by monomials of degree $(r-1)d$ in $S$. We…

Scheme-theoretic methods are used to classify ternary quadratic forms with values in line bundles over arbitrary schemes and to canonically determine the isomorphisms between them. The association of a quadratic bundle to its even Clifford…

For every $n\ge 0$, we construct classes in the Brown-Peterson cohomology $BP\langle n \rangle$ of smooth projective complex algebraic varieties which are not in the image of the cycle map from the corresponding motivic Brown-Peterson…

We introduce the notion of an algebraic cocycle as the algebraic analogue of a map to an Eilenberg-MacLane space. Using these cocycles we develop a ``cohomology theory" for complex algebraic varieties. The theory is bigraded, functorial,…

We show that the derived category of complexes with quasi-coherent cohomology on a regular Noetherian algebraic stack with quasi-finite diagonal is generated by a single perfect complex. In the concentrated case, the category is singly…

We prove that the C*-algebra of a second-countable, \'etale, amenable groupoid is simple if and only if the groupoid is topologically principal and minimal. We also show that if G has totally disconnected unit space, then the associated…

For every algebraically closed field $k$ and natural number $r$, we construct several algebraic varieties (over $k$) whose birational automorphism group contains every finite nilpotent group of class at most $2$, rank at most $r$ whose…

The author establishes finite-generation of the cohomology ring of a classical Lie superalgebra relative to an even subsuperalgebra. A spectral sequence is constructed to provide conditions for when this relative cohomology ring is…

Let $A$, $A'$ be separable $C^*$-algebras, $B$ a stable $\sigma$-unital $C^*$-algebra. Our main result is the construction of the pairing $[[A',A]]\times\operatorname{Ext}^{-1/2}(A,B)\to\operatorname{Ext}^{-1/2}(A',B)$, where $[[A',A]]$…
