We prove a number of p-adic congruences for the coefficients of powers of a multivariate polynomial f(x) with coefficients in a ring R of characteristic zero. If the Hasse--Witt operation is invertible, our congruences yield p-adic limit…

We give a criterion of integrality of an one-dimensional formal group law in terms of congruences satisfied by the coefficients of the canonical invariant differential. For an integral formal group law a p-adic analytic formula for the…

Let $M$ be a multiplicative monoid with identity. Then I show that there is a universal one dimensional formal group law equipped with an action of $M$. If $M$ is $p$-perfect (i.e. $m\mapsto m^p$ is an isomorphism for some prime number $p$)…

We give an analog of Frobenius' theorem about the factorization of the group determinant on the group algebra of finite abelian groups and we extend it into dihedral groups and generalized quaternion groups. Furthermore, we describe the…

Given an associative, not necessarily commutative, ring R with identity, a formal matrix calculus is introduced and developed for pairs of matrices over R. This calculus subsumes the theory of homogeneous systems of linear equations with…

We define the Frobenius limit of a module over a ring of prime characteristic to be the limit of the normalized Frobenius direct images in a certain Grothendieck group. When a finite group acts on a polynomial ring, we calculate this limit…

We restrict the type of $2 \times 2$-matrices which can occur as simple components in the Wedderburn decomposition of the rational group algebra of a finite group. This results in a description up to commensurability of the group of units…

The representation theory of finite groups began with Frobenius's factorization of Dedekind's group determinant. In this paper, we consider the case of the semigroup determinant. The semigroup determinant is nonzero if and only if the…

Let $\mathscr{O}_K$ be a 2-adic discrete valuation ring with perfect residue field $k$. We classify $p$-divisible groups and $p$-power order finite flat group schemes over $\mathscr{O}_K$ in terms of certain Frobenius module over…

Let k be a perfect field of characteristic p>0. When p>2, Fontaine and Laffaille have classified p-divisibles groups and finite flat p-groups over the Witt vectors W(k) in terms of filtered modules. Still assuming p>2, we extend these…

We show a precise formula, in the form of a monomial, for certain families of parabolic Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials of the symmetric group. The proof stems from results of Lapid-Minguez on irreducibility of products in the…

We study the action of the formal affine Hecke algebra on the formal group algebra, and show that the the formal affine Hecke algebra has a basis indexed by the Weyl group as a module over the formal group algebra. We also define a concept…

We introduce the notion of a favourable module for a complex unipotent algebraic group, whose properties are governed by the combinatorics of an associated polytope. We describe two filtrations of the module, one given by the total degree…

The orbits space of an irreducible linear representation of a finite group is a variety whose coordinate ring is the ring of invariant polynomials. Boris Dubrovin proved that the orbits space of the standard reflection representation of an…

We consider the question whether a Sylow like theorem is valid in the normalized units of integral group rings of finite groups. After a short survey on the known results we show that this is the case for integral group rings of Frobenius…

We calculate the formal group law which represents the completion of the N\'eron model of an algebraic torus over the rationals that splits in a tamely ramified abelian extension. As a tools in the proof, we define and give criterions to…

We begin with (densely-defined) fractional linear transformations (FLT) on (some) Banach algebras and their relatives. This leads to Wedderburn's continued fractions (recursively-defined noncommutative polynomials) for any ring. Along the…

All groups are 2-generator. For any prime-power q, Theorem 1 constructs a solvable matrix group over a quotient of a Laurent polynomial ring. This group is closely related to a group of exponent q as shown in Theorems 2 & 3 . Theorem 4 in…

Let W be the Weyl group of a crystallographic root system acting on the associated weight lattice by reflections. In the present notes we extend the notion of an exponent of the W-action introduced in [Baek-Neher-Zainoulline,…

We prove several results about p-divisible groups and Rapoport-Zink spaces. Our main goal is to prove that Rapoport-Zink spaces at infinite level are naturally perfectoid spaces, and to give a description of these spaces purely in terms of…
