In the past few years, an action of $\mathrm{PGL}_2(\mathbb F_q)$ on the set of irreducible polynomials in $\mathbb F_q[x]$ has been introduced and many questions have been discussed, such as the characterization and number of invariant…
We prove that for any k greater or equal to 2, given a smooth compact k-dimensional manifold and a multiplicative k-1-gerbe on a Lie group, together with an integrable connection, there is a line bundle on the corresponding…
Letting tau denote the inverse transpose automorphism of GL(n,q), a formula is obtained for the number of g in GL(n,q) so that gg^{tau} is equal to a given element h. This generalizes a result of Gow and Macdonald for the special case that…
Let $G$ be a split semisimple group over a function field. We prove the temperedness at unramified places of automorphic representations of $G$, subject to a local assumption at one place, stronger than supercuspidality, and assuming the…
In this note we prove a more general (and topological) version of Gr\"unbaum's conjecture about affine invariant points. As an application of our result we show that, if we consider the action of the group of similarities, Gr\"unbaum's…
We continue the study of $n$-dependent groups, fields and related structures, largely motivated by the conjecture that every $n$-dependent field is dependent. We provide evidence towards this conjecture by showing that every infinite…
In this paper we associate an invariant to a biquaternion algebra $B$ over a field $K$ with a subfield $F$ such that $K/F$ is a quadratic separable extension and $\operatorname{char}(F)=2$. We show that this invariant is trivial exactly…
The classical equations of motion of Maxwell and Born-Infeld theories are known to be invariant under a duality symmetry acting on the field strengths. We implement the SL(2,Z) duality in these theories as linear but non-local…
We offer a groupoid-theoretic approach to computing invariants. We illustrate this approach by describing the Gel'fand-MacPherson correspondence and the Gale transform as well as giving Zariski-local descriptions of the moduli space of…
We prove the local Langlands conjecture for the exceptional group $G_2(F)$ where $F$ is a non-archimedean local field of characteristic zero.
Breuil et Schneider formulated a conjecture on the equivalence of the existence of invariant norms on certain locally algebraic representations of GL_d(F) and the existence of certain de Rham representations of Gal(\bar(Q_p)/F)$, where F is…
We construct some examples of polynomial maps over finite fields that admit subvarieties with a peculiar property: every geometric point is mapped to a fixed point by some iteration of the map, while the whole subvariety is not. Several…
Let $A$ be the ring of integers of global field $K$. Let $G \subseteq GL_2(A)$ be a finite group. Let $G$ act linearly on $R = A[X,Y]$ (fixing $A$). Let $R^G$ be the ring of invariants. In the equi-characteristic case we prove $R^G$ is…
We formulate a refined theory of linear systems, using the methods of a previous paper, "A Theory of Branches for Algebraic Curves", and use it to give a geometric interpretation of the genus of an algebraic curve. Using principles of…
Let $\mathcal{P}$ be a property of function $\mathbb{F}_p^n \to \{0,1\}$ for a fixed prime $p$. An algorithm is called a tester for $\mathcal{P}$ if, given a query access to the input function $f$, with high probability, it accepts when $f$…
We explain the exact meaning of a statement we made in a previous paper on invariants, namely that a complex-valued function of the data of the functional equation of an $L$-function is an invariant if and only if it is stable under the…
Let $F/F_{0}$ be a quadratic extension of non-archimedean locally compact fields of residue characteristic $p\neq 2$. Let $R$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from $p$. For $\pi$ a supercuspidal representation of…
We verify a special case of a conjecture of G. Carlsson that describes the $\l$-adic $K$-theory of a field $F$ of characteristic prime to $\l$ in terms of the representation theory of the absolute Galois group $G_F$. This conjecture is…
We prove that for any prime $p>2$, $q=p^\nu$ a power of $p$, $n\ge p$ and $G=S_n$ or $G=A_n$ (symmetric or alternating group) there exists a Galois extension $K/\mathbb F_q(T)$ ramified only over $\infty$ with $\mathrm{Gal}(K/\mathbb…
We remove the assumption "let p be odd or k totally imaginary" from several well-known theorems in Galois cohomology of number fields. For example, we show that the Galois group of the maximal extension of a number field k which is…
