We analyze the vanishing and non-vanishing behavior of the graded Betti numbers for Segre embeddings of products of projective spaces. We give lower bounds for when each of the rows of the Betti table becomes non-zero, and prove that our…

We extend the basic theory of the coniveau and strong coniveau filtrations to the $\ell$-adic setting. By adapting the examples of Benoist--Ottem to the $\ell$-adic context, we show that the two filtrations differ over any algebraically…

A Cohen-Macaulay local ring $R$ satisfies trivial vanishing if $\operatorname{Tor}_i^R(M,N)=0$ for all large $i$ implies $M$ or $N$ has finite projective dimension. If $R$ satisfies trivial vanishing then we also have that…

We prove that the rank gradient vanishes for mapping class groups of genus bigger than 1, $Aut(F_n)$, for all $n$, $Out(F_n)$ for $n \geq 3$, and any Artin group whose underlying graph is connected. These groups have fixed price 1. We…

In this paper, we shall provide explicit formulas for the extremal Betti numbers of $R/I$, where $I$ is the defining ideal of certain weighted hyperplanes in $\Bbb{P}^{n-1}$ and $R$ is the polynomial ring in $n$ indeterminates over a field.…

We derive Price inequalities for harmonic forms on manifolds without conjugate points and with a negative Ricci upper bound. The techniques employed in the proof work particularly well for manifolds of non-positive sectional curvature, and…

This note aims at providing evidence for the section conjecture of anabelian geometry by establishing its behaviour under Weil restriction of scalars. In particular, the etale fundamental group of the Weil restriction is determined by means…

We determine the restriction of Weil representations of unitary groups to maximal tori. In the local case, we show that the Weil representation contains a pair of compatible characters if and only if a root number condition holds. In the…

It is known that all modular forms on $SL_2(Z)$ can be expressed as a rational function in $\eta(z)$, $\eta(2z)$ and $\eta(4z)$. By using a theorem by Gordon, Hughes, and Newman, and calculating the order of vanishing, we can compute the…

It is known that all modular forms on SL_2(Z) can be expressed as a rational function in eta(z), eta(2z) and eta(4z). By utilizing known theorems, and calculating the order of vanishing, we can compute the eta-quotients for a given level.…

In this paper we consider the asymptotic behavior of invariants such as Betti numbers, minimal numbers of generators of singular homology, the order of the torsion subgroup of singular homology, and torsion invariants. We will show that all…

We consider $L$-functions attached to representations of the Galois group of the function field of a curve over a finite field. Under mild tameness hypotheses, we prove non-vanishing results for twists of these $L$-functions by characters…

In this work we introduce new folding axioms involving easy 3D manoeuvres with the aim to push forward the arithmetic limits of the Huzita-Justin axioms. Those 3D axioms involve the use of a flat surface and the rigidity property of convex…

Several nonexistence results on generalized bent functions $f:Z_{2}^{n} \rightarrow Z_{m}$ presented by using some knowledge on cyclotomic number fields and their imaginary quadratic subfields.

The main contribution of this paper is to find a representation of the class $\mathcal{F}_d(p)$ of multivariate Bernoulli distributions with the same mean $p$ that allows us to find its generators analytically in any dimension. We map…

We prove that if the $n$th $\ell^2$-Betti number of a group is non-zero then its $n$th BNSR invariant over $\mathbb{Q}$ is empty, under suitable finiteness conditions. We apply this to answer questions of Friedl--Vidussi and Llosa…

We compute the cohomology with trivial coefficients of Lie algebras $\mathfrak{m}_0$ and $\mathfrak{m}_2$ of maximal class over the field $\mathbb{Z}_2$. In the infinite-dimensional case, we show that the cohomology rings…

We define a family of generalizations of $\operatorname{SL}_2$-tilings to higher dimensions called $\boldsymbol{\epsilon}$-$\operatorname{SL}_2$-tilings. We show that, in each dimension 3 or greater,…

We show that two-dimensional Artin groups satisfy a strengthening of the Tits alternative: their subgroups either contain a non-abelian free group or are virtually free abelian of rank at most $2$. When in addition the associated Coxeter…
