For a connected Noetherian unstable algebra $R$ over the mod $p$ Steenrod algebra, we prove versions of theorems of Duflot and Carlson on the depth of $R$, originally proved when $R$ is the mod $p$ cohomology ring of a finite group. This…
We discuss two extensions of results conjectured by Nick Kuhn about the non-realization of unstable algebras as the mod $p$ singular cohomology of a space, for $p$ a prime. The first extends and refines earlier work of the second and fourth…
We study bounds on nilpotence in H*(BG), the mod p cohomology of the classifying space of a compact Lie group G. Part of this is a report of our previous work on this problem, updated to reflect the consequences of Peter Symonds recent…
Let $U$ be the quantum group with divided powers in $l-$th root of unity and let $u\subset U$ be the Frobenius kernel. V.Ginzburg and S.Kumar proved that the cohomology algebra of $u$ with trivial coefficients is isomorphic to the functions…
Nilpotence in the homotopy of $\mathbb{E}_\infty$-ring spectra is detected by the classical $H\mathbb{Z}$-Hurewicz homomorphism. Inspired by questions of Mathew, Noel, and Naumann, we investigate the extent to which this criterion holds in…
We study the second cohomology group with coefficients in the adjoint module for a class of solvable Lie algebras $\mathcal{R}_{\mathcal{T}}$ that arise as maximal solvable extensions of nilpotent Lie algebras $\mathcal{N}$ of maximal rank.…
We investigate Hopf algebroids in the category of $L$-complete modules over a commutative Noetherian regular complete local ring. The main examples are provided by the Hopf algebroids associated to Lubin-Tate spectra in the K(n)-local…
Given a semisimple compact Lie group $G$ and a nonzero dominant integral weight $\lambda$, the highest weight $G_q$-modules $V_{n\lambda}$ form a subproduct system of finite dimensional Hilbert spaces. Using a conjectural asymptotic…
Is the cohomology of the classifying space of a p-compact group, with Noetherian twisted coefficients, a Noetherian module? This note provides, over the ring of p-adic integers, such a generalization to p-compact groups of the Evens-Venkov…
If a nontrivial finite group coacts on a graded noetherian down-up algebra $A$ inner faithfully and homogeneously, then the fixed subring is not isomorphic to $A$. Therefore graded noetherian down-up algebras are rigid with respect to…

A $nil$-closed, noetherian, unstable algebra $K$ over the Steenrod Algebra is determined, up to isomorphism, by the functor $\text{Hom}_{\mathcal{K}\text{f.g.}}(K,H^*(\_))$, which is a presheaf on the category $\mathcal{VI}$ of finite…
We prove that the direct sum of all homology groups of the integral general linear groups with Steinberg module coefficients form a commutative Hopf algebra, in particular a free graded commutative algebra. We use this to construct new…
In a previous paper, the author (together with Matthew Emerton) proved that the completed cohomology groups of SL_N(Z) are stable in fixed degree as N goes to infinity (Z may be replaced by the ring O_F of integers of any number field). In…
In this paper we propose and partially carry out a program to use $K$-theory to refine the topological realization problem of unstable algebras over the Steenrod algebra. In particular, we establish a suitable form of algebraic models for…

We establish vanishing results for the first cohomology group of nilpotent groups and Lie rings when the submodule of invariants is trivial. Our results are obtained within a model-theoretic setting, namely for structures that are definable…
We consider aspects of the geometry and topology of nilpotent orbits in finite-dimensional complex simple Lie algebras. In particular, we give the equivariant cohomologies of the regular and minimal nilpotent orbits with respect to the…
The semigroup of the homotopy classes of the self-homotopy maps of a finite complex which induce the trivial homomorphism on homotopy groups is nilpotent. We determine the nilpotency of these semigroups of compact Lie groups and finite Hopf…
We prove a general form of the regularity theorem for uniformity norms, and deduce an inverse theorem for these norms which holds for a class of compact nilspaces including all compact abelian groups, and also nilmanifolds; in particular we…
