Fix a noetherian scheme S. For any flat map f: X->Y of separated essentially-finite-type perfect S-schemes we define a canonical derived-category map c(f):\H(X)->f^!\H(Y), the fundamental class of f, where \H(Z) is the (pre-)Hochschild…

Let R denote a two-dimensional normal standard-graded domain over the algebraic closure K of a finite field of characteristic p, and let I denote a homogeneous primary ideal. We prove that the Hilbert-Kunz function of I has the form =…

Consider a rational projective plane curve C parameterized by three homogeneous forms h1,h2,h3 of the same degree d in the polynomial ring R=k[x,y] over the field k. Extracting a common factor, we may harmlessly assume that the ideal…

The density property for a Stein manifold X implies that the group of holomorphic diffeomorphisms of X is infinite-dimensional and, in a certain well-defined sense, as large as possible. We prove that if G is a complex semisimple Lie group…

Let $R=k[x_1,..., x_n]$ be a polynomial ring over a field $k$ of characteristic $p>0,$ let $\m=(x_1,..., x_n)$ be the maximal ideal generated by the variables, let $^*E$ be the naturally graded injective hull of $R/\m$ and let $^*E(n)$ be…

Let $A \subseteq E$ be a given extension of Hopf (respectively Lie) algebras. We answer the \emph{classifying complements problem} (CCP) which consists of describing and classifying all complements of $A$ in $E$. If $H$ is a given…

It is well known that a foliation F of a smooth manifold M gives rise to a rich cohomological theory, its characteristic (i.e., leafwise) cohomology. Characteristic cohomologies of F may be interpreted, to some extent, as functions on the…

We consider the following class of unitary representations $\pi $ of some (real) Lie group $G$ which has a matched pair of symmetries described as follows: (i) Suppose $G$ has a period-2 automorphism $\tau $, and that the Hilbert space…

Let $S$ be the affine plane $\C^2$ together with an appropriate $\mathbb T = \C^*$ action. Let $\hil{m,m+1}$ be the incidence Hilbert scheme. Parallel to \cite{LQ}, we construct an infinite dimensional Lie algebra that acts on the direct…

We show that if $R$ is a two dimensional standard graded ring (with the graded maximal ideal ${\bf m}$) of characteristic $p>0$ and $I\subset R$ is a graded ideal with $\ell(R/I) <\infty$ then the $F$-threshold $c^I({\bf m})$ can be…

Let $F$ be a finitely generated regular field extension of transcendence degree $\geq 2$ over a perfect field $k$. We show that the multiplicative group $F^\times/k^\times$ endowed with the equivalence relation induced by algebraic…

Given a commutative ring $R$ and finitely generated ideal $I$, one can consider the classes of $I$-adically complete, $L_0^I$-complete and derived $I$-complete complexes. Under a mild assumption on the ideal $I$ called weak pro-regularity,…

We establish axiomatic characterizations of $K$-theory and $KK$-theory for real C*-algebras. In particular, let $F$ be an abelian group-valued functor on separable real C*-algebras. We prove that if $F$ is homotopy invariant, stable, and…

We compute the cohomology with trivial coefficients of Lie algebras $\mathfrak{m}_0$ and $\mathfrak{m}_2$ of maximal class over the field $\mathbb{Z}_2$. In the infinite-dimensional case, we show that the cohomology rings…

Let F be a field, let G be its absolute Galois group, and let R(G, k) be the representation ring of G over a suitable field k. In this preprint we construct a ring homomorphism from the mod 2 Milnor K-theory k_*(F) to the graded ring gr…

Let H be a homology theory for algebraic varieties over a field k. To a complete k-variety X, one naturally attaches an ideal of the coefficient ring H(k). We show that, when X is regular, this ideal depends only on the upper Chow motive of…

We define a ring R of geometric objects G generated by finite abstract simplicial complexes. To every G belongs Hodge Laplacian H as the square of the Dirac operator determining its cohomology and a unimodular connection matrix L). The sum…

Iterated Hopf Ore extensions (IHOEs) over an algebraically closed base field k of positive characteristic p are studied. We show that every IHOE over k satisfies a polynomial identity, with PI-degree a power of p, and that it is a filtered…

For a pair $(M, I)$, where $M$ is finitely generated graded module over a standard graded ring $R$ of dimension $d$, and $I$ is a graded ideal with $\ell(R/I) < \infty$, we introduce a new invariant $HKd(M, I)$ called the {\em Hilbert-Kunz…
