This paper shows that certain decomposition numbers for the Hecke algebras and q-Schur algebras at different roots of unity in characteristic zero are equal. To prove our results we first establish the corresponding theorem for the…

The Tate conjecture for divisors on varieties over number fields is equivalent to finiteness of $\ell$-primary torsion in the Brauer group. We show that this finiteness is actually uniform in one-dimensional families for varieties that…

We construct an invariant of closed oriented $3$-manifolds using a finite dimensional, involutory, unimodular and counimodular Hopf algebra $H$. We use the framework of normal o-graphs introduced by R. Benedetti and C. Petronio, in which…

A longstanding problem attributed to I. Schur says that for a finite group $G$, the exponent of the second homology group $H_2(G, \mathbb{Z})$ divides the exponent of $G$. In this paper, we prove this conjecture for finite nilpotent groups…

The function $h^0$ for a number field is an analogue of the dimension of the Riemann-Roch spaces of divisors on an algebraic curve. In this paper, we prove the conjecture of van der Geer and Schoof about the maximality of $h^0$ at the…

In this paper we outline the Hecke theory for Hermitian modular forms in the sense of Hel Braun for arbitrary class number of the attached imaginary-quadratic number field. The Hecke algebra turns out to be commutative. Its inert part has a…

A closed symmetric differential of the 1st kind is a differential that locally is the product of closed holomorphic 1-forms. We show that closed symmetric 2-differentials of the 1st kind on a projective manifold $X$ come from maps of $X$ to…

We prove that a prime knot K is not determined by its p-fold cyclic branched cover for at most two odd primes p. Moreover, we show that for a given odd prime p, the p-fold cyclic branched cover of a prime knot K is the p-fold cyclic…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. We prove that any division algebra over k(x,y) whose ramification locus lies on a quartic curve is cyclic.

As an application of P. Delgine's theorem (Esnault and Kerz in Acta Math. Vietnam. 37:531-562, 2012) on a finiteness of $l$-adic sheaves on a variety over a finite field, we show the finiteness of \'etale coverings of such a variety with…

We show that the group of homeomorphisms of a compact contractible $d$-manifold which fix the boundary is contractible, as long as $d \geq 6$. We deduce this from a strong uniqueness statement for one-sided $h$-cobordisms.

We prove that affine invariant manifolds in strata of flat surfaces are algebraic varieties. The result is deduced from a generalization of a theorem of M\"oller. Namely, we prove that the image of a certain twisted Abel-Jacobi map lands in…

We provide two new proofs of a theorem of Cooper, Long and Reid which asserts that, apart from an explicit finite list of exceptional manifolds, any compact orientable irreducible 3-manifold with non-empty boundary has large fundamental…

Given a closed oriented surface $\Sigma$ of genus greater than 0, we construct a map $\mathcal{F}$ from the higher-dimensional Heegaard Floer homology of the cotangent fibers of $T^*\Sigma$ to the Hecke algebra associated to $\Sigma$ and…

The elements of the class of non-homogeneous differential operators which are based on the same vector field, when viewed as acting on appropriate Hilbert spaces, are shown to be isomorphic to each other. It shown that the replacement of a…

We give a new proof that the restriction of a cell module of the Hecke algebra of the symmetric group on $n$ letters, to the Hecke algebra of the symmetric group on $n-1$ letters, has a filtration by cell modules.

This is partly a survey and partly a research article. Some known results and open problems about Kaehler groups (fundamental groups of compact Kaehler manifolds) are discussed. A new notion of Kaehler homomorphism is introduced. This is a…

We construct algebras of endomorphisms in the derived category of the cohomology of arithmetic manifolds, which are generated by Hecke operators. We construct Galois representations with coefficients in these Hecke algebras and apply this…

The concordance group of knots in the three-sphere contains an infinite subgroup generated by elements of order two, each one of which is represented by a knot K with the property that for every n > 0, the n-fold cyclic cover of S^3…

For a compact manifold M and a differentiable stack \cX presented by a Lie groupoid X, we show the Hom-stack Hom(M,\cX) is presented by a Fr\'echet-Lie groupoid Map(M,X) and so is an infinite-dimensional differentiable stack. We further…
