We investigate the existence and non-existence of modular forms of low weight with a character with respect to the paramodular group $\Gamma_t$ and discuss the resulting geometric consequences. Using an advanced version of Maa\ss\ lifting…

Let $p$ be a multilinear polynomial in several non-commuting variables with coefficients in an arbitrary field $K$. Kaplansky conjectured that for any $n$, the image of $p$ evaluated on the set $M_n(K)$ of $n$ by $n$ matrices is either…

We consider the generating series of special cycles on $\mathcal{A}_1(N)\times \mathcal{A}_g(N)$, with full level $N$ structure, valued in the cohomology of degree $2g$. The modularity theorem of Kudla-Millson for locally symmetric spaces…

We leverage the results of the prequel in combination with a theorem of D. Orlov to yield some results in Hodge theory of derived categories of factorizations and derived categories of coherent sheaves on varieties. In particular, we…

J.F. Carlson conjectured in 1995 that if G is a finite group and k is a field whose characteristic p divides the order of G that the depth of H*(G,k) equals the minimum of the dimensions of associated primes of H*(G,k). This is obviously…

Over an algebraically closed base field $k$ of characteristic 2, the ring $R^G$ of invariants is studied, $G$ being the orthogonal group O(n) or the special orthogonal group SO(n) and acting naturally on the coordinate ring $R$ of the…

Let V be a rank N vector bundle on a d-dimensional complex projective scheme X; assume that V is equipped with a skew-symmetric bilinear form with values in a line bundle L and that \Lambda^2 V^* \otimes L is ample. Suppose that the maximum…

We study the properties of 4d N=3 superconformal field theories whose rank is one, i.e. those that reduce to a single vector multiplet on their moduli space of vacua. We find that the moduli space can only be of the form C^3/Z_k for…

For an $(n-1)$-Auslander algebra $\Lambda$ with global dimension $n$, we give some necessary conditions for $\Lambda$ admitting a maximal $(n-1)$-orthogonal subcategory in terms of the properties of simple $\Lambda$-modules with projective…

In 1994 Drew, Johnson and Loewy conjectured that for $n \ge 4$, the cp-rank of any $n\times n$ completely positive matrices is at most $\lfloor{n^2}/{4}\rfloor$. Recently this conjecture has been proved for $n=5$ and disproved for $n\ge 7$,…

We consider the moduli space $A_{pol}(n)$ of (non-principally) polarised abelian varieties of genus $g\geq3$ with coprime polarisation and full level-$n$ structure. Based upon the analysis of the Tits building in math/0405321, we give an…

This work reports on joint research with Manuel Saorin. For an algebra A over an algebraically closed field k the set of A-module structures on k d forms an affine algebraic variety. The general linear group Gl d (k) acts on this variety…

We show that counterexamples of Iyengar and Walker to the algebraic version of Gunnar Carlsson's conjecture on the rank of the homology of a free complex can be extended to examples over any finite group with many choices of the complex.

There are two kinds of polynomial functions on matrix algebras over commutative rings: those induced by polynomials with coefficients in the algebra itself and those induced by polynomials with scalar coefficients. In the case of algebras…

Let $N^{0}(m,n)$ be the number of odd Durfee symbols of $n$ with odd rank $m$, and $N^{0}(a,M;n)$ be the number of odd Durfee symbols of $n$ with odd rank congruent to $a$ modulo $M$. We give explicit formulas for the generating functions…

Let $K$ be a field of characteristic zero and let $R=K[X_1, \ldots,X_n ]$, with standard grading. Let $\mathfrak{m}= (X_1, \ldots, X_n)$ and let $E$ be the $^*$injective hull of $R/\mathfrak{m}.$ Let $A_n(K)$ be the $n^{th}$ Weyl algebra…

A rank-$r$ integer matrix $A$ is $\Delta$-modular if the determinant of each $r \times r$ submatrix has absolute value at most $\Delta$. The class of $1$-modular, or unimodular, matrices is of fundamental significance in both integer…

Let $K$ be the function field of a smooth and proper curve $S$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$. Let $A$ be an ordinary abelian variety over $K$. Suppose that the N\'eron model $\CA$ of $A$ over $S$ has a…
