Given a field $\mathbb K$, for any $n\geq 3$ the first cohomology group $H^1(G_n,A^*_n)$ of the special linear group $G_n = \mathrm{SL}(n,{\mathbb K})$ over the dual $A^*_n$ of its adjoint module $A_n$ is isomorphic to the space…

We study a topological method to calculate the first Milnor fiber cohomology of a defining polynomial of a reduced projective hyperplane arrangement $X$ of degree $d$. We can show the vanishing of a monodromy eigenspace of the first Milnor…

We give a new proof of vanishing result of Esnault for the cohomology of constructible sheaves in the tower of ``mock'' Frobenius covers of projective space. The key idea is to use (a global form of) the perversity of nearby cycles.

Suppose that $n\neq p^k$ and $n\neq 2p^k$ for all $k$ and all primes $p$. We prove that for any Hausdorff compactum $X$ with a free action of the symmetric group $\mathfrak S_n$ there exists an $\mathfrak S_n$-equivariant map $X \to…

We show that if a compact, connected, and oriented $n$-manifold $M$ without boundary admits a non-constant non-injective uniformly quasiregular self-map, then the dimension of the real singular cohomology ring $H^*(M; \mathbb{R})$ of $M$ is…

Hilbert-Efimov theorem states that any complete surface with curvature bounded above by a negative constant can not be isometrically imbedded in $\mathbb{R}^3.$ We demonstrate that any simply-connected smooth complete surface with curvature…

We consider algebras over a field $k$ of characteristic zero. The article is concerned with the isomorphism of graded vectorspaces \[ H(\gl(A))\iso\wedge (HC(A)[-1]) \] between the Lie algebra homology of matrices and the free graded…

Let $X$ be a Banach space with a separable dual. We prove that $X$ embeds isomorphically into a $\cL_\infty$ space $Z$ whose dual is isomorphic to $\ell_1$. If, moreover, $U$ is a space so that $U$ and $X$ are totally incomparable, then we…

The action--Maslov homomorphism $I\co\pi_1(\text{Ham}(X,\omega))\to\R$ is an important tool for understanding the topology of the Hamiltonian group of monotone symplectic manifolds. We explore conditions for the vanishing of this…

Let $\mathcal U$ be the 2-category associated with $\mathfrak{sl}_2$. We prove that a complex of 1-morphisms of $\mathcal U$ is null-homotopic if and only if its image in every simple 2-representation is null-homotopic. Under mild…

The $L^p$-cohomology in degree 1 of Riemannian homogeneous spaces is computed. It turns out that reduced cohomology does not vanish exactly for spaces quasiisometric to negatively curved homogeneous spaces.

We prove that if $G$ is an abelian group and $H_1x_1,\dots,H_{k}x_k$ is an irredundant (minimal) cover of $G$ with cosets, then $$|G:\bigcap_{i=1}^{k}H_{i}|=2^{O(k)}.$$ This bound is the best possible up to the constant hidden in the…

In this paper we define, for each aspherical orientable 3-manifold $M$ endowed with a \emph{torus splitting} $\c{T}$, a 2-dimensional fundamental $l_1$-class $[M]^{\c{T}}$ whose $l_1$-norm has similar properties as the Gromov simplicial…

(1) Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be complete Noetherian local ring of dimension $d$ and let $P$ be a prime ideal with $G_P(A) = \bigoplus_{n \geq 0}P^n/P^{n+1}$ a domain. Fix $r \geq 1$. If $J$ is a homogeneous ideal of $G_{P^r}(A)$ with…

In this paper we develop an axiomatic setup for algorithmic homological algebra of Abelian categories. This is done by exhibiting all existential quantifiers entering the definition of an Abelian category, which for the sake of…

Let R be a Noetherian local ring with the maximal ideal m and dim R=1. In this paper, we shall prove that the module Ext^1_R(R/Q,R) does not vanish for every parameter ideal Q in R, if the embedding dimension v(R) of R is at most 4 and the…

If $X$ is a topological space then there is a natural homomorphism $\pi_1(X)\rightarrow K_1(X)$ from a fundamental group to a $K_1$-homology group. Covering projections depend of fundamental group. So $K_1$-homology groups are interrelated…

We give a characterizaton of smooth ample Hypersurfaces in Abelian Varieties and also describe an irreducible connected component of their moduli space: it consists of the Hypersurfaces of a given polarization type, plus the iterated…

We prove that for every centrally symmetric convex polygon Q, there exists a constant alpha such that any alpha*k-fold covering of the plane by translates of Q can be decomposed into k coverings. This improves on a quadratic upper bound…

Consider the general linear group $G=GL_{n}(K)$ defined over an infinite field $K$ of positive characteristic $p$. We denote by $\Delta(\lambda)$ the Weyl module of $G$ which corresponds to a partition $\lambda$. Let $\lambda, \mu $ be…
