We give finite presentations for the fundamental group of moduli stacks of smooth Weierstrass curves over complex projective space P^n which extend the classical result for elliptic curves to positive dimensional base. We thus get natural…

Let $C_1,\ldots,C_e$ be noncentral conjugacy classes of the algebraic group $G=SL_n(k)$ defined over a sufficiently large field $k$, and let $\Omega:=C_1\times \ldots \times C_e$. This paper determines necessary and sufficient conditions…

Let G be complex linear-algebraic group, H a subgroup, which is dense in G in the Zariski-topology. Assume that G/[G,G] is reductive and furthermore that (1) G is solvable, or (2) the semisimple elements in G'=[G,G] are dense. Then every…

We show that for an odd prime r > 3 and an integer g > 1, in the projective representation given by the SO(3) Witten-Chern-Simons theory at an rth root of unity, the image of the mapping class group of a surface of genus g is dense.

We compute divisors class groups of singular surfaces. Most notably we produce an exact sequence that relates the Cartier divisors and almost Cartier divisors of a surface to the those of its normalization. This generalizes Hartshorne's…

This is a foundation for algebraic geometry, developed internal to the Zariski topos, building on the work of Kock and Blechschmidt. The Zariski topos consists of sheaves on the site opposite to the category of finitely presented algebras…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field and let $X$ be an irreducible subvariety of $G^r$ with $r \geqslant 2$. In this paper, we consider the general problem of determining if there exists a tuple $(x_1,…

Let $f : X \to S$ be a smooth projective family defined over $\mathcal{O}_{K}[\mathcal{S}^{-1}]$, where $K \subset \mathbb{C}$ is a number field and $\mathcal{S}$ is a finite set of primes. For each prime $\mathfrak{p} \in…

In this paper, we study the geometry of two-torsion points of elliptic curves in order to distinguish the embedded topology of reducible plane curves consisting of a smooth cubic and its tangent lines. As a result, we obtain a new family of…

Lasell and Ramachandran show that the existence of rational curves of positive self-intersection on a smooth projective surface $X$ implies that all the finite dimensional linear representations of the fundamental group $\pi_1(X)$ are…

We show that the semigroup Zariski topology on a group can be strictly coarser than the group Zariski topology on it, answering a question of Elliott, Jonusas, Mesyan, Mitchell, Morayne, and Peresse.

In a joint paper P. Pand\v{z}i\'c and D. Renard proved that holomorphic and antiholomorphic discrete series representations can be constructed via algebraic Dirac induction. The group $SU(2,1)$, except for those two types, also has a third…

To a tree of semi-simple algebras we associate a qurve (or formally smooth algebra) S. We introduce a Zariski- and etale quiver describing the finite dimensional representations of S. In particular, we show that all quotient varieties of…

A framework is developed to describe the Zariski topologies on the prime and primitive spectra of a quantum algebra $A$ in terms of the (known) topologies on strata of these spaces and maps between the collections of closed sets of…

We show that the orthogonality conjecture for divisorial Zariski decompositions on compact Kahler manifolds holds for pseudoeffective (1,1) classes with volume zero.

Let $R$ be the ring of $S$-integers in a number field $K$. Let $\mathcal{B}=\{\beta, \beta^{\ast}\}$ be the multi-set of roots of a nonzero quadratic polynomial over $R$. There are varieties $V(\mathcal{B})_{N,k}$ defined over $R$…

In this paper we study the analytic realisation of the discrete series representations for the group $G=Sp(1,1)$ as a subspace of the space of square integrable sections in a homogeneous vector bundle over the symmetric space $G/K:=Sp(1,1)…

This paper investigates the relationship between the hyperbolicity of complex quasi-projective varieties $X$ and the (topological) fundamental group $\pi_1(X)$ in the presence of a linear representation $\varrho: \pi_1(X) \to {\rm…

We give very flexible, concrete constructions of discrete and faithful epresentations of right-angled Artin groups into higher-rank Lie groups. Using the geometry of the associated symmetric spaces and the combinatorics of the groups, we…

We give an estimate for the width of the congruence subgroup $\mathrm{SL}(n,O_S,I)$ in Tits--Vaserstein generators, where $O_S$ is a localisation of the ring of integers in a number field $K$. We assume that either $K$ has a real embedding,…
