Our aim is to transfer several foundational results from the modular representation theory of finite groups to the wider context of profinite groups. We are thus interested in profinite modules over the completed group algebra k[[G]] of a…

We investigate under which circumstances there exists nonzero {\it{projective}} smooth $\field[G]$-modules, where $\field$ is a field of characteristic $p$ and $G$ is a locally pro-$p$ group. We prove the non-existence of (non-trivial)…

A pointwise definable model is one in which every object is definable without parameters. In a model of set theory, this property strengthens V=HOD, but is not first-order expressible. Nevertheless, if ZFC is consistent, then there are…

We describe a flexible construction that produces triples of finitely generated, residually finite groups $M\hookrightarrow P \hookrightarrow \Gamma$, where the maps induce isomorphisms of profinite completions…

For any ordinal \Lambda, we can define a polymodal logic GLP(\Lambda), with a modality [\xi] for each \xi<\Lambda. These represent provability predicates of increasing strength. Although GLP(\Lambda) has no Kripke models, Ignatiev showed…

Let F be a p-adic field and n a positive integer. The local Langlands conjecture asserts the existence of a bijection between irreducible admissible representations of GL(n,F) and n-dimensional admissible representations of the Weil-Deligne…

We show that the variety of modal lattices has the superamalgamation property. As a consequence, we obtain that the weak positive modal logic has the Craig interpolation property. Our proof employs the recent duality for modal lattices…

For every $n \geq 1$, let $(\mathrm{FW}_n)$ denote the fixed-point property for median graphs of cubical dimension $n$ (or equivalently, for CAT(0) cube complexes of dimension $n$). In this article, we construct explicit examples of groups…

This paper presents new approaches to the fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings in L^1 spaces. While it is well-known that L^1 fails the fixed point property in general, we provide a complete and self-contained proof that…

A recent result characterizes the fully order reversing operators acting on the class of lower semicontinuous proper convex functions in a real Banach space as certain linear deformations of the Legendre-Fenchel transform. Motivated by the…

We study model and frame definability of various modal logics. Let ML(A+) denote the fragment of modal logic extended with the universal modality in which the universal modality occurs only positively. We show that a class of Kripke models…

For a finite and positive measure space $(\Omega,\Sigma,\mu)$ and any weakly compact convex subset of $L\sp\infty(\Omega,\Sigma,mu)$, a fixed point theorem for a class of nonexpansive self-mappings is proved. An analogous result is obtained…

We define the infinite dimensional simplex to be the closure of the convex hull of the standard basis vectors in R^infinity, and prove that this space has the 'fixed point property': any continuous function from the space into itself has a…

In this work we study the decidability of a class of global modal logics arising from Kripke frames evaluated over certain residuated lattices, known in the literature as modal many-valued logics. We exhibit a large family of these modal…

Caputo fractional (with power-law kernels) and fractional (delta) difference maps belong to a more widely defined class of generalized fractional maps, which are discrete convolutions with some power-law-like functions. The conditions of…

In the product $L_1\times L_2$ of two Kripke complete consistent logics, local tabularity of $L_1$ and $L_2$ is necessary for local tabularity of $L_1\times L_2$. However, it is not sufficient: the product of two locally tabular logics may…

Suppose that a finite group $G$ admits a Frobenius group of automorphisms $FH$ with kernel $F$ and complement $H$ such that the fixed-point subgroup of $F$ is trivial: $C_G(F)=1$. In this situation various properties of $G$ are shown to be…
