For a classical group $G$ of type $\mathsf D_n$ over a field $k$ of characteristic different from $2$, we show the existence of a finitely generated regular extension $R$ of $k$ such that $G$ admits outer automorphisms over $R$. Using this…

We give a cohomological criterion for existence of outer automorphisms of a semisimple algebraic group over an arbitrary field. This criterion is then applied to the special case of groups of type D_2n over a global field, which completes…

We prove a lower bound on the number of the convex components of a compact set with non-empty interior in $\mathbb{R}^n$ for all $n\ge2$. Our result generalizes and improves the inequalities previously obtained in M. Carozza, F. Giannetti,…

We provide sufficient conditions for a component of the Auslander-Reiten quiver of an artin algebra to be determined by the composition factors of its indecomposable modules.

We prove the semisimplicity conjecture for A-motives over finitely generated fields K. This conjecture states that the rational Tate modules V_p(M) of a semisimple A-motive M are semisimple as representations of the absolute Galois group of…

We provide criteria for an Auslander-Reiten component having sections of a Krull-Schmidt category to be standard. Specializing to the category of finitely presented representations of a strongly locally finite quiver and its bounded derived…

We propose a generalization of a conjecture of D. Quillen, on the vanishing of Andr\'e-Quillen homology, to simplicial commutative rings. This conjecture characterizes a notion of local complete intersection, extended to the simplicial…

We consider polynomial maps, which we call degree $d$-linear maps, that satisfy the Jacobian condition. We prove that certain infinite families of elements, which appear in the coefficients of the formal inverse of such maps, are in the…

We study a two-component asymmetric simple exclusion process (ASEP) that is equivalent to the ASEP with second-class particles. We prove self-duality with respect to a family of duality functions which are shown to arise from the reversible…

Consider the general complex polynomial external field $$ V(z)=\frac{z^{k}}{k}+\sum_{j=1}^{k-1} \frac{t_j z^j}{j}, \qquad t_j \in \mathbb{C}, \quad k \in \mathbb{N}. $$ Fix an equivalence class $\mathcal{T}$ of admissible contours whose…

We prove the automorphism conjecture for ordered sets of width less than or equal to 11. The proof supports the meta conjecture that a large number of automorphisms is achievable only as some type of product of independent automorphisms on…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $\mathcal{A}_p(G)$ be the poset of nontrivial elementary abelian $p$-subgroups of $G$. Quillen conjectured that $O_p(G)$ is nontrivial if $\mathcal{A}_p(G)$ is contractible. We prove that $O_p(G)\neq 1$ for any…

Let $C$ be the class of separable-algebraically maximal equi-characteristic Kaplansky fields of a given imperfection degree, admitting an angular component map. We prove that the common theory of the class $C$ resplendently eliminates…

An outer automorphism of a free group is geometric if it can be represented by a homeomorphism of a compact surface. Bestvina and Handel gave an algorithmic characterization of geometric irreducible outer automorphisms using relative train…

To apply the Euler system method to a $p$-adic Galois representation $T$, one needs the existence of a $\sigma \in G_{\mathbb{Q}(\mu_{p^{\infty}})}$ such that $V/(\sigma-1)V$ is free of rank one over the coefficient ring: we say that such a…

We give a new proof of Quillen's conjecture for solvable groups via a geometric and explicit method. For p-solvable groups, we provide both a new proof using the Classification of Finite Simple Groups and an asymptotic version without…

Many common finite p-groups admit automorphisms of order coprime to p, and when p is odd, it is reasonably difficult to find finite p-groups whose automorphism group is a p-group. Yet the goal of this paper is to prove that the automorphism…

Let $p$ be a prime number. A longstanding conjecture asserts that every finite non-abelian $p$-group has a non-inner automorphism of order $p$. In this paper, we prove that the conjecture is true when a finite non-abelian $p$-group $G$ has…

This paper studies three results that describe the structure of the super-coinvariant algebra of pseudo-reflection groups over a field of characteristic $0$. Our most general result determines the top component in total degree, which we…

A system of \ell linear equations in p unknowns Mx=b is said to have the removal property if every set S \subseteq {1,...,n} which contains o(n^{p-\ell}) solutions of Mx=b can be turned into a set S' containing no solution of Mx=b, by the…
