We construct five different two-parameter massive deformations of the unique nine-dimensional N=2 supergravity. All of these deformations have a higher-dimensional origin via Scherk-Schwarz reduction and correspond to gauged supergravities.…

We study derived equivalences of Abelian varieties in terms of their associated symplectic data. For simple Abelian varieties over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero we prove that the natural correspondence introduced by…

Given subvarieties $X, Y$ of a complex algebraic variety $S$ of complementary dimension, must they intersect? When $S$ is projective space, this is a consequence of the classical B\'ezout theorem, and an analogue for simple abelian…

We study the impact of a set of horizontal symmetries on the requirements for producing the baryon asymmetry of the universe via leptogenesis. We find that Abelian horizontal symmetries lead to a simple description of the parameters…

We provide two alternate settings for a family of varieties modeling the uniserial representations with fixed sequence of composition factors over a finite dimensional algebra. The first is a quasi-projective subvariety of a Grassmannian…

We prove a certain uniform version of the Shafarevich Conjecture. As a corollary, we prove the Rasmussen-Tamagawa Conjecture for a particular class of abelian varieties $A$ defined over a number $K$ of dimension $g$ having everywhere…

We prove a criterion for the normality of Schubert varieties in twisted affine Grassmannians in terms of the order of the algebraic fundamental group of a certain Levi subgroup, in particular in small positive characteristic. As an…

We determine the non-abelian composition factors of the finite groups with Sylow normalizers of odd order. As a consequence, among others, we prove the McKay conjecture and the Alperin weight conjecture for these groups.

We show, using the trace formula, that any Newton stratum of a Shimura variety of PEL-type of types (A) and (C) is non-empty at the primes of good reduction. Furthermore we prove conditionally the non-emptiness for Shimura data associated…

In this short survey, we explain Parshin's proof of the geometric Bombieri-Lang conjecture, and show that it can be used to give an alternative proof of Xie-Yuan's recent resolution of the geometric Bombieri-Lang conjecture for projective…

In this paper, we prove the existence of certain lifts of Hilbert cusp forms to general odd spin groups. We then use those lifts to provide evidence for a conjecture of Gross on the modularity of abelian varieties not of ${\rm GL}_2$-type.

We show that the hypercohomology of most character twists of perverse sheaves on a complex abelian variety vanishes in all non-zero degrees. As a consequence we obtain a vanishing theorem for constructible sheaves and a relative vanishing…

We give evidence that fully supersymmetric Anti-de Sitter vacua of extended supergravity with a residual gauge group containing an abelian factor cannot be scale separated as a consequence of the weak gravity conjecture. We prove this for…

We prove a conjecture of Gao and Kitaev on Wilf-equivalence of sets of patterns {12345,12354} and {45123,45213} that extends the list of 10 related conjectures proved in the literature in a series of papers. To achieve our goals, we prove…

We prove that the cohomology class of any curve on a very general principally polarized abelian variety of dimension at least 4 is an even multiple of the minimal class. The same holds for the intermediate Jacobian of a very general cubic…

Recently, G. Mason has produced a counterexample of order 128 to a conjecture in conformal field theory and tensor category theory in [Ma]. Here we easily produce an infinite family of counterexamples, the smallest of which has order 72.

The topological properties of field configurations in gauge theory contain important data about the (generalized) global symmetries of the theory as well as potential inconsistencies in the form of gauge anomalies. In this work we modify…

We prove a conjecture of Milne pertaining to the existence of integral canonical models of Shimura varieties of abelian type in arbitrary unramified mixed characteristic $(0,p)$. As an application we prove for $p=2$ a motivic conjecture of…

We consider p-divisible groups (also called Barsotti-Tate groups) in characteristic p, their deformations, and we draw some conclusions. For such a group we can define its Newton polygon (abbreviated NP). This is invariant under isogeny.…

F-theory compactified on a Calabi-Yau fourfold naturally describes non-Abelian gauge symmetries through the singularity structure of the elliptic fibration. In contrast Abelian symmetries are more difficult to study because of their…
