The two main theorems proved here are as follows: If $A$ is a finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field, the identity component of the algebraic group of outer automorphisms of $A$ is invariant under derived equivalence.…

For a Poisson manifold $M$ we develop systematic methods to compute its Picard group $Pic(M)$, i.e., its group of self Morita equivalences. We establish a precise relationship between $Pic(M)$ and the group of gauge transformations up to…

Let $F$ be a field of characteristic $0$ containing all roots of unity. We construct a functorial compact Hausdorff space $X_F$ whose profinite fundamental group agrees with the absolute Galois group of $F$, i.e. the category of finite…

This paper concerns our earlier conjecture about the equivalence of a derived completion construction applied to the representation spectrum of the absolute Galois group of a geometric field is equivalent to the algebraic K-theory of the…

Let $K$ be a complete discrete valued field of characteristic $p$ with residue $k$ which is not necessarily perfect. We prove the Conjecture in \cite{cs} that a $p$-algebra over $K$ contains a totally ramified cyclic maximal subfield if it…

Let S be a site. We introduce the notion of extensions of strictly commutative Picard S-stacks. We define the pull-back, the push-down, and the sum of such extensions and we compute their homological interpretation: if P and Q are two…

This paper relates the lower semi-continuity of an integral functional in the compensated compactness setting of vector fields satisfying a constant-rank first-order differential constraint, to closed $\mathcal{A}$-$p$ quasiconvexity of the…

Let X be a flexible variety of F be an isomorphism of closed one-dimensional subschemes of $X$. We develop criteria which guarantee that F extends to au automorphism of X.

In this note we show the characteristic function of every indecomposable set $F$ in the plane is $BV$ equivalent to the characteristic function a closed set $\mathbb{F}$, i.e.…

For locally compact groups G and H let A(G) denote the Fourier algebra of G and B(H) the Fourier-Stieltjes algebra of H. Any continuous piecewise affine map alpha:Y -> G (where Y is an element of the open coset ring of H) induces a…

The main purpose of this article is to explore the possibility of extending the notion of peripheral Poisson boundary of unital completely positive (UCP) maps to contractive completely positive (CCP) maps and to unital and non-unital…

We generalize Amitsur's construction of central simple algebras over a field $F$ which are split by field extensions possessing a derivation with field of constants $F$ to nonassociative algebras: for every central division algebra $D$ over…

Since 1883, Picard-Vessiot theory had been developed as the Galois theory of differential field extensions associated to linear differential equations. Inspired by categorical Galois theory of Janelidze, and by using novel methods of…

The motivation for this paper is to extend the known model theoretic treatment of differential Galois theory to the case of linear difference equations (where the derivative is replaced by an automorphism.) The model theoretic difficulties…

We give an axiomatization of the class ECF of exponentially closed fields, which includes the pseudo-exponential fields previously introduced by the second author, and show that it is superstable over its interpretation of arithmetic.…

In this article we prove that every isometric copy of C(L) in C(K) is complemented if L is compact Hausdorff of finite height and K is a compact Hausdorff space satisfying the extension property, i.e., every closed subset of K admits an…

We give model theoretic accounts and proofs of the existence and uniqueness of differential Galois extensions with no new constants, for logarithmic differential equations over a differential field K, when the field C of constants of K is…

Let $S$ be a closed Riemann surface of genus $g \geq 2$ and $\varphi$ be a conformal automorphism of $S$ of prime order $p$ such that $S/\langle \varphi \rangle$ has genus zero. Let ${\mathbb K} \leq {\mathbb C}$ be a field of definition of…

This PhD deals with the notion of pseudo algebraically closed (PAC) extensions of fields. It develops a group-theoretic machinery, based on a generalization of embedding problems, to study these extensions. Perhaps the main result is that…

Let D be a closed unit 2-disk on the plane centered at the origin 0, and F be a smooth vector field on D such that O is a unique singular point of F and all other orbits of F are simple closed curves wrapping once around O. Thus…
