This paper explores formalizing Geometric (or Clifford) algebras into the Lean 3 theorem prover, building upon the substantial body of work that is the Lean mathematics library, mathlib. As we use Lean source code to demonstrate many of our…

Let $A$ be any unital associative, possibly non-commutative ring and let $p$ be a prime number. Let $E(A)$ be the ring of $p$-typical Witt vectors as constructed by Cuntz and Deninger and $W(A)$ be the abelian group constructed by…

In this article, we'll introduce a $q$-variant of Witt vectors and de Rham-Witt complexes. This variant is closely related to the Habiro ring of a number field constructed by Garoufalidis, Scholze, Wheeler, and Zagier, to $q$-Hodge…

Some basic properties of the ring of integers $\mathbb{Z}$ are extended to entire rings. In particular, arithmetic in entire principal rings is very similar than arithmetic in the ring of integers $\mathbb{Z}$. These arithmetic properties…

In 2005 J.L. Waldspurger proved the following theorem: given a finite real reflection group $W$, the closed positive root cone is tiled by the images of the open weight cone under the action of the linear transformations $id-w$. Shortly…

Let $K$ be a field complete with respect to a nonarchimedean real-valued norm, and let $L/K$ be an algebraic extension. We show that there is a unique norm on $L$ extending the given norm on $K$, with an explicit description. As an…

We present type-independent computations of the KO-groups of full flag varieties, i.e. of quotient spaces G/T of compact Lie groups by their maximal tori. Our main tool is the identification of the Witt ring, a quotient of the KO-ring, of…

In the present article, we introduce beta-expansions in the ring $\mathbb{Z}_p$ of $p$-adic integers. We characterise the sets of numbers with eventually periodic and finite expansions.

The purpose of this paper is to develop a new theory of gauges in mixed characteristic. Namely, let $k$ be a perfect field of characteristic $p>0$ and $W(k)$ the $p$-typical Witt vectors. Making use of Berthelot's arithmetic differential…

Let $\operatorname{Witt}$ be the Lie algebra generated by the set $\{L_i\,\vert\, i \in {\mathbb Z}\}$ and $\operatorname{Vir}$ its universal central extension. Let $\operatorname{Diff}(V)$ be the Lie algebra of differential operators on…

We develop a theory of vector valued automorphic forms associated to the Weil representation $\omega_f$ and corresponding to vector valued modular forms transforming with the ``finite'' Weil representation $\rho_L$. For each prime $p$ we…

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…

We formalize in Lean the following foundational result in commutative algebra: Let $R \to S$ be a faithfully flat map of (not necessarily noetherian) commutative rings, and let $P$ be an arbitrary $R$-module. Then $P$ is projective over $R$…

We study an analogue of the Herbrand-Ribet theorem, and its refinement by Mazur and Wiles, in graph theory. For an odd prime number $p$, we let $\mathbb{F}_{p}$ and $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$ denote the finite field with $p$ elements and the ring of…

Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Algebraic structures of a specific type (e.g. algebras or coalgebras) on a given vector space $W$ over $K$ can be encoded as points in an affine space $U(W)$. This space is…
