In this note, we prove that intrinsic characteristic classes of Lie algebroids - which in degree one recover the modular class - behave functorially with respect to arbitrary transverse maps, and in particular are weak Morita invariants. In…
We extend the notion of a commuting poset for a finite group to p-blocks and fusion systems, and we generalize a result, due originally to Alperin and proved independently by Aschbacher and Segev, to commuting graphs of blocks, with a very…
Except for blocks with a cyclic or Klein four defect group, it is not known in general whether the Morita equivalence class of a block algebra over a field of prime characteristic determines that of the corresponding block algebra over a…
We study the interaction between the group law on an abelian variety and the additive structure induced on its image under a morphism to projective space. Let $A/F$ be a simple abelian variety, $f:A \rightarrow \mathbb{P}^n$ be a morphism…
In studying the structure of derived categories of module categories of group algebras or their blocks, it is fundamental to classify support $\tau$-tilting modules. Koshio and Kozakai showed that the structure of support $\tau$-tilting…
We give a construction that in many cases gives a simple way to construct infinite families of algebras that are not Morita equivalent, but are all derived equivalent to the same block algebra of a finite group, and apply it to some small…
In the representation theory of finite groups, there is a well-known and important conjecture due to M. Brou\'e. He conjectures that, for any prime p, if a p-block A of a finite group G has an abelian defect group P, then A and its Brauer…
We study blocks with an abelian defect group and a cyclic inertial quotient acting freely but not transitively. We prove that when p=2, such blocks are inertial, i.e. basic Morita equivalent to their Brauer correspondent. Together with a…
Two rings A and B are said to be derived Morita equivalent if their derived categories of modules are equivalent. By results of Rickard, if A and B are derived Morita equivalent algebras over a field k, then there is a complex of bimodules…
In the present paper, we study the $p$-adic $L$-functions and the (strict) Selmer groups over $\mathbb{Q}_{\infty}$, the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension of $\mathbb{Q}$, of the $p$-adic weight one cusp forms $f$, obtained via the…
We establish a "matrix simultaneous diagonalization theorem" for disconnected reductive groups which relaxes both the semisimplicity condition and the commutativity condition. As an application, we prove the following basic results…
A finite tensor category is called pointed if all its simple objects are invertible. We find necessary and sufficient conditions for two pointed semisimple categories to be dual to each other with respect to a module category. Whenever the…
As a generalization of the modular isomorphism problem we study the behavior of defect groups under Morita equivalence of blocks of finite groups over algebraically closed fields of positive characteristic. We prove that the Morita…
Let F be a totally real field and p an odd prime. If r is a continuous, semisimple, totally odd mod p representation of the absolute Galois group of F which is tamely ramified at all places of F dividing p, then we formulate a conjecture…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of prime characteristic $p$, and let $P$ be a $p$-subgroup of a finite group $G$. We give sufficient conditions for the $kG$-Scott module $\mathrm{Sc}(G,P)$ with vertex $P$ to remain indcomposable…
We introduce a new type of equivalence between blocks of finite group algebras called an almost isotypy. An almost isotypy restricts to a weak isotypy in Brou\'{e}'s original definition, and it is slightly weaker than Linckelmann's version.…
We prove that all mod $p$ Hilbert modular forms arise via multiplication by generalized partial Hasse invariants from forms whose weight falls within a certain minimal cone. This answers a question posed by Andreatta and Goren, and…
For any finite abelian group G, the equivariant Gromov-Witten invariants of C^r/G can be viewed as a certain kind of abelian Hurwitz-Hodge integrals. In this note, we use Tseng's orbifold quantum Riemann-Roch theorem to express this kind of…
We present a new criterion to predict if a character of a finite group extends. Let $G$ be a finite group and $p$ a prime. For $N\lhd G$, we consider $p$-blocks $b$ and $b'$ of $N$ and ${\rm N}_N(D)$, respectively, with $(b')^N=b$, where…
In this article we show that the $\Z_p[\zeta_{p^f-1}]$-order $\Z_p[\zeta_{p^f-1}]\SL_2(p^f)$ can be recognized among those orders whose reduction modulo $p$ is isomorphic to $\F_{p^f}\SL_2(p^f)$ using only ring-theoretic properties (in…
