Let $K$ be a henselian valued field with ${\cal O}_K$ its valuation ring, $\Gamma$ its value group, and $\boldsymbol{k}$ its residue field. We study the definable subsets of ${\cal O}_K$ and algebraic groups definable over ${\cal O}_K$ in…
For an isotropic reductive group G satisfying a suitable rank condition over an infinite field k, we show that the sections of the $\mathbb{A}^1$-fundamental group sheaf of G over an extension field L/k can be identified with the second…
Let k be a field of positive characteristic p and let G be a finite group. In this paper we study the category TsG of finitely generated commutative k-algebras A on which G acts by algebra automorphisms with surjective trace. If A = k[X],…
We show that the local-global divisibility in commutative algebraic groups defined over number fields can be tested on sets of primes of arbitrary small density, i.e. stable and persistent sets. We also give a new description of the…
In this paper, we present a new connection between representation theory of noncommutative hypersurfaces and combinatorics. Let $S$ be a graded ($\pm 1$)-skew polynomial algebra in $n$ variables of degree $1$ and $f =x_1^2 + \cdots +x_n^2…
We prove that any vector bundle computing the rank-two Clifford index of a smooth projective algebraic curve is linearly semistable. We also identify conditions under which such bundles become linearly stable, thereby addressing a question…
We study the existence of asymptotically $Z$-stable (a.Z stable) bundles over polycyclic surfaces. Our choice of polynomial central charge is related to the existence of solutions of the deformed Hermitian--Yang--Mills equations, with…
With the long-term goal of proving local structure theorems of algebraic stacks in positive characteristic near points with reductive (but possibly non-linearly reductive) stabilizer, we conjecture that quotient stacks of the form…
As the first main result of this article, we prove that if $e$ and $e'$ are idempotents of a commutative ring $A$, then there is a canonical isomorphism of $A$-modules: $$Ae\oplus Ae'\simeq Ae/Ae(1-e')\oplus Ae'/Ae'(1-e)\oplus…
The purpose of this paper is to forge a direct link between the hit problem for the action of the Steenrod algebra A on the polynomial algebra P(n)=F_2[x_1,...,x_n], over the field F_2 of two elements, and semistandard Young tableaux as…
We prove full functoriality of Khovanov homology for tangled framed gl2 webs. We use this functoriality result to prove a strong positivity result for (orientable) surface skein algebras. The argument goes categorical and consists in…
Let R be an affine algebra of dimension n \geq 3 over an algebraically closed field k. Suppose char k =0 or char k =p \geq n. Let g,f_1,...,f_r be a R-regular sequence and A=R[f_1/g,...,f_r/g]. Let P be a projective A-module of rank n-1…
We prove that, when $n$ goes to infinity, the expression, with respect to the dual Kazhdan-Lusztig basis, of the product $\hat{\underline{H}}_x\underline{H}_y$ of elements of the dual and the usual Kazhdan-Lusztig bases in the Hecke algebra…
Let $R$ be a commutative noetherian ring, and $\mathcal{Z}$ a stable under specialization subset of $\Spec(R)$. We introduce a notion of $\mathcal{Z}$-cofiniteness and study its main properties. In the case $\dim(\mathcal{Z})\leq 1$, or…
We generalise the concept of a Steinberg cross-section to non-connected Kac-Moody group. As in the connected case, which was treated by G. Br\"uchert, a quotient map w.r.t the conjugacy action exists only on a certain submonoid of the…
Motivated by his work on the stable rank filtration of algebraic K-theory spectra, Rognes defined a simplicial complex called the common basis complex and conjectured that this complex is highly connected for local rings and Euclidean…
The algebra S of symmetric invariants over the field with two elements is an unstable algebra over the Steenrod algebra A, and is isomorphic to the mod two cohomology of BO, the classifying space for vector bundles. We provide a minimal…
Let K be an infinite field and denote by H(n,K) the family of pairs (A,B) of commuting nilpotent n by n matrices with entries in K. There has been substantial recent study of the connection between H(n,K) and the fibre H[n] of the punctual…

In math.RT/0302174 we developed a framework to study representations of groups of the form $G((t))$, where $G$ is an algebraic group over a local field $K$. The main feature of this theory is that natural representations of groups of this…
