In this paper we construct extensions of the Mixed Hodge structure on the fundamental group of a pointed algebraic curve. These extensions correspond to the regulator of certain explicit motivic cohomology cycles in the self product of the…
In their paper on the gamma conjecture in mirror symmetry, Golyshev and Zagier introduce what we refer to as Frobenius constants associated to an ordinary linear differential operator L with a reflection type singularity. These numbers…
We develop a class of uniformizations for certain weight 3 variations of Hodge structure (VHS). The analytic properties of the VHS are used to establish a conjecture of Eskin, Kontsevich, M\"oller, and Zorich on Lyapunov exponents.…
The global behaviour of the normal function associated with van Geemen's family of lines on the mirror quintic is studied. Based on the associated inhomogeneous Picard-Fuchs equation, the series expansions around large complex structure,…
Gamma-positivity is an elementary property that polynomials with symmetric coefficients may have, which directly implies their unimodality. The idea behind it stems from work of Foata, Sch\"utzenberger and Strehl on the Eulerian…
We provide new proofs of two key results of p-adic Hodge theory: the Fontaine-Wintenberger isomorphism between Galois groups in characteristic 0 and characteristic p, and the Cherbonnier-Colmez theorem on decompletion of (phi,…
We analyze the behavior of polarized complex variations of Hodge structure on the punctured unit disk. For integral variations of Hodge structure, this analysis was first carried out by Wilfried Schmid. We get rid of the assumption that the…
We construct and study a triangulated category of motives with modulus $\mathbf{MDM}_{\mathrm{gm}}^{\mathrm{eff}}$ over a field $k$ that extends Voevodsky's category $\mathbf{DM}_{\mathrm{gm}}^{\mathrm{eff}}$ in such a way as to encompass…
For any discrete group $\Gamma$ and any 2-dimensional complex representation $\rho$ of $\Gamma$, we introduce the notion of $\rho-$equivariant functions, and we show that they are parameterized by vector-valued modular forms. We also…
We introduce the notion of extension of 1-motives. Using the dictionary between strictly commutative Picard stacks and complexes of abelian sheaves concentrated in degrees -1 and 0, we check that an extension of 1-motives induces an…
Motivated mainly by certain interesting recent extensions of the Gamma, Beta and hypergeometric functions, we introduce here new extensions of the Beta function, hypergeometric and confluent hypergeometric functions. We systematically…
We introduce new motivic invariants of arbitrary varieties over a perfect field. These cohomological invariants take values in the category of one-motives (considered up to isogeny in positive characteristic). The algebraic definition of…
A new cohomology, induced by a vector field, is defined on pairs of differential forms ($1$--differentiable forms) in a manifold. It is proved a link with the classical de Rham cohomology and an $1$-differentable cohomology of Lichnerowicz…
We revisit a mechanism proposed by Hawking to resolve the cosmological constant problem (and the controversy it generated) to identify possibly more palatable alternatives and explore new connections and interpretations. In particular,…
Let $V$ be an $n$ dimensional vector space over an algebraic closure of a finite field $F_q$ and put $G = GL(V)$. For a positive integer $r$, we consider the variety $X_{uni} = G_{uni} \times V^{r-1}$, on which $G$ acts diagonally.…
We construct a monomorphism of the De Rham complex of scalar multivalued meromorphic forms on the projective line, holomorphic on the complement to a finite set of points, to the chain complex of the Lie algebra of $sl_2$-valued algebraic…

We construct an algebraic-cycle based model for the motivic cohomology on the category of schemes of finite type over a field, where schemes may admit arbitrary singularities and may be non-reduced. We show that our theory is functorial on…
Let f be a modular eigenform of even weight k>0 and new at a prime p dividing exactly the level, with respect to an indefinite quaternion algebra. The theory of Fontaine-Mazur allows to attach to f a monodromy module D_FM(f) and an…
Entwined modules arose from the coalgebra-Galois theory. They are a generalisation of unified Doi-Hopf modules. In this paper, Frobenius properties and Maschke-type theorems, known for Doi-Hopf modules are extended to the case of entwined…
