Let X be a variety over a field of characteristic 0. Given a vector bundle E on X we construct Chern forms c_{i}(E;\nabla) in \Gamma(X, \cal{A}^{2i}_{X}). Here \cal{A}^{.}_{X} is the sheaf Beilinson adeles and \nabla is an adelic…

We define a deformation space of V. Lafforgue's $G$-valued pseudocharacters of a profinite group $\Gamma$ for a possibly disconnected reductive group $G$. We show, that this definition generalizes Chenevier's construction. We show that the…

Let $M$ be a compact 3-manifold and $\Gamma=\pi_1(M)$. Work of Thurston and Culler--Shalen established the $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{C})$ character variety $X(\Gamma)$ as fundamental tool in the study of the geometry and topology of $M$. This…

In this paper, we prove the lack of asymptotic transitivity of the outer automorphism group action of $\mathbb{Z}^r$ on $\mathrm{SL}_n(\mathbb{F}_q)$-character varieties of $\mathbb{Z}^r$ for $n=2,3$ and $r\geq 2$. Along the way, we…

The complexity of an action of a reductive algebraic group G on an algebraic variety X is the codimension of a generic B-orbit in X, where B is a Borel subgroup of G. We classify affine homogeneous spaces G/H of complexity one. These…

A univariate graph polynomial P(G;X) is weakly distinguishing if for almost all finite graphs G there is a finite graph H with P(G;X)=P(H;X). We show that the clique polynomial and the independence polynomial are weakly distinguishing.…

We survey our recently proposed method for constructing biholomorphic invariants of quasihomogeneous isolated hypersurface singularities and, more generally, invariants of graded Artinian Gorenstein algebras. The method utilizes certain…

Let $\Gamma=\langle a,b | a b^{p} a^{-1} = b^{q}\rangle$ be a Baumslag--Solitar group and $G$ be a complex reductive algebraic group with maximal compact subgroup $K<G$. We show that, when $p$ and $q$ are relatively prime with distinct…

We give a criterion when a polynomial $x^n-g$ is irreducible over a pseudofinite field. As an application we give an explicit description of algebraic closure of some pseudofinite fields of zero characteristic.

Given a natural number $m$ and a log smooth integral morphism $X\to S$ of fine log schemes of characteristic $p>0$ with a lifting of its Frobenius pull-back $X'\to S$ modulo $p^{2}$, we use indexed algebras ${\cal A}_{X}^{gp}$, ${\cal…

Given a morphism $X \to S$ of fine log schemes, we develop a geometric description of the sheaves of higher-order differentials $\Omega^n_{X/S}$ for $n > 1$, as well as a definition of the de Rham complex in terms of this description.

We give a generalization of the Hodge operator to spaces $(V,h)$ endowed with a hermitian or symmetric bilinear form $h$ over arbitrary fields, including the characteristic two case. Suitable exterior powers of $V$ become free modules over…

One deals with arbitrary reduced free divisors in a polynomial ring over a field of characteristic zero, by stressing the ideal theoretic and homological behavior of the corresponding singular locus. A particular emphasis is given to both…

We determine all F,G in C[X] of degree at least 2 for which the semigroup generated by F and G under composition is not the free semigroup on the letters F and G. We also solve the same problem for F,G in X^2 C[[X]], and prove partial…
