Let $F$ be a finite field, and let $\mathbb{E}$ be either a quadratic field extension $E/F$ or the split algebra $F \oplus F$. We study distinguished representations of $\rm{SL}_{2n}(F)$ by the subgroup $H_{\flat} := \rm{SL}_{2n}(F) \cap…

We find all irreducible hypergeometric sheaves whose geometric monodromy group is finite, almost quasisimple and has the projective special linear group $PSL_n(q)$ with $n\geq 3$ as a composition factor. We use the classification of…

We investigate strictly developable simple complexes of groups with arbitrary local groups, or equivalently, group actions admitting a strict fundamental domain. We introduce a new method for computing the cohomology of such groups. We also…

We prove that every locally inner endomorphism of a Chevalley group (or its elementary subgroup) over a local ring with an irreducible root system of rank >1 (with 1/2 for the systems A_2, F_4, B_l, C_l and with 1/3 for the system G_2) is…

Hypertrees are high-dimensional counterparts of graph theoretic trees. They have attracted a great deal of attention by various investigators. Here we introduce and study Hyperpaths -- a particular class of hypertrees which are high…

Let $G=\mathrm{GL}_{2n}(\mathbb{R})$ or $G=\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbb{H})$ and $H=\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbb{C})$ regarded as a subgroup of $G$. Here, $\mathbb{H}$ is the quaternion division algebra over $\mathbb{R}$. For a character $\chi$ on…

A fully irreducible outer automorphism phi of the free group F_n of rank n has an expansion factor which often differs from the expansion factor of the inverse of phi. Nevertheless, we prove that the ratio between the logarithms of the…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q^d$ be the $d$-dimensional vector space over the finite field with $q$ elements. For a subset $E\subseteq \mathbb{F}_q^d$ and a fixed nonzero $t\in \mathbb{F}_q$, let $\mathcal{H}_t(E)=\{h_y: y\in E\}$, where $h_y$ is the…

Let X be a smooth projective curve of genus g bigger then 2. For any vector bundle E on X let M_k(E) be the scheme of all rank k subbundles of E with maximal degree. For every integers r, k and x with 0<k<r, x positive and either x less…

High dimensional expanders is a vibrant emerging field of study. Nevertheless, the only known construction of bounded degree high dimensional expanders is based on Ramanujan complexes, whereas one dimensional bounded degree expanders are…

For an abelian group $H$ acting on the set $[\ell]$, an $(H,\ell)$-lift of a graph $G_0$ is a graph obtained by replacing each vertex by $\ell$ copies, and each edge by a matching corresponding to the action of an element of $H$. In this…

In a class of multidimensional models, topology of a thick brane provides three chiral fermionic families with hierarchical masses and mixings in the effective four-dimensional theory, while the full model contains a single vector-like…

We compute the graded rank of the cohomology of the hyperplane complement associated with a quaternionic reflection group, and observe that it factors into irreducible factors with positive integer coefficients. For an irreducible group,…

The higher direct image complex of a coherent sheaf (or finite complex of coherent sheaves) under a projective morphism is a fundamental construction that can be defined via a Cech complex or an injective resolution, both inherently…

Let X be a smooth complex projective variety with basepoint x. We prove that every rigid integral irreducible representation $\pi_1(X,x)\to SL (3,{\mathbb C})$ is of geometric origin, i.e., it comes from some family of smooth projective…

Let $X$ and $S$ be complex spaces with $X$ countable at infinity and $S$ reduced locally pure dimensional. Let $\pi:X\to S$ be an universally-$n$-equidimensional morphism (i.e open with constant pure $n$-dimensional fibers). If there is a…

Given a strictly concave rational PL function $\phi$ on a complete $n$-dimensional fan $\Sigma$, we construct an exact symplectic structure of finite volume on $(\mathbb{C}^\times)^n$ and a family of functions $H_{\phi,\epsilon}$ called…
