Let A be an algebra in a variety V. We study the modulization of a pointed A-overalgebra P, show that it is totally in any variety that P is totally in, and apply this theory to the construction of the enveloping ringoid Z[A,V].
We prove that total spaces of $CP^2$-bundles generate the oriented cobordism ring $\Omega_*$. Combined with the surgery lemma this yields a somewhat different proof of Gromov's and Lawson's theorem that all simply connected non-spin…
We show that the reduction mod p of an orthogonal linear representation is orthogonal, and we generalize this fact to representations of algebras with involution.The proofs make an essential use of the notion of " middle lattices ".
Fix a prime number $p$. We report on some recent developments in algebraic geometry (broadly construed) over $p$-adically complete commutative rings. These developments include foundational advances within the subject as well as external…
We study the mod $p$ cohomology ring of the classifying space $BPU(p)$ of the projective unitary group $PU(p)$, when $p$ is an odd prime. We prove a mod $p$ formula analogous to a formula of Vistoli for the integral cohomology ring of…
In the present paper we study a bordism theory related to pairs $(M,\, \xi),$ where $M$ is a closed smooth oriented manifold with a stably trivial normal bundle and $\xi$ is a virtual $\SU$-bundle of virtual dimension 1 over $M$. The main…
We state and prove a variant of the Andr\'e-Oort conjecture for the product of 2 modular curves in positive characteristic, assuming GRH for quadratic fields.
This is the second paper of a series that develops a bordism-theoretic point of view on orientations in enumerative geometry. The first paper is arXiv:2312.06818. This paper focuses on those applications to gauge theory that can be…
In this paper, new and significant advances on the understanding the structure of p.p. rings and their generalizations have been made. Especially among them, it is proved that a commutative ring $R$ is a generalized p.p. ring if and only if…
This paper was motivated by a recent paper by Krumm and Pollack investigating modulo-$p$ behaviour of quadratic twists with rational points of a given hyperelliptic curve, conditional on the abc-conjecture. We extend those results to…
Generalizing the ideas of $\mathbb{Z}_k$-manifolds from Sullivan and stratifolds from Kreck, we define $\mathbb{Z}_k$-stratifolds. We show that the bordism theory of $\mathbb{Z}_k$-stratifolds is sufficient to represent all homology classes…
We compute the equivariant bordism of free oriented $(\mathbb{Z}/p)^n$-manifolds as a module over $\Omega_*^{SO}$, when $p$ is an odd prime. We show, among others, that this module is canonically isomorphic to a direct sum of suspensions of…
We prove a generalized mirror conjecture for non-negative complete intersections in symplectic toric manifolds. Namely, we express solutions of the PDE system describing quantum cohomology of such a manifold in terms of suitable…
We prove a generalization of the cobordism hypothesis of Baez--Dolan and Hopkins--Lurie for bordisms with arbitrary geometric structures, such as Riemannian metrics, complex and symplectic structures, principal bundles with connections, or…
We obtain lower bounds for the dimension of fixed loci of diagonalizable $p$-groups acting on smooth projective varieties. Those bounds depend on the modulo $p$ Chern numbers of the ambient variety, and are expressed in a natural way by…
We establish a geometrisation of the Breuil-M\'ezard conjecture for potentially Barsotti-Tate representations, as well as of the weight part of Serre's conjecture, for moduli stacks of two-dimensional mod p representations of the absolute…
We give complete geometric invariants of cobordisms of fold maps with oriented singular set and cobordisms of even codimensional fold maps. These invariants are given in terms of cobordisms of stably framed manifolds and cobordisms of…
We prove bordism invariance of the coarse index of complex elliptic pseudodifferential operators. In our discussion we introduce directed $c$-bordisms, whose usefulness is illustrated in the context of existence of uniformly positive scalar…
We discuss recent developments in $p$-adic geometry, ranging from foundational results such as the degeneration of the Hodge-to-de Rham spectral sequence for "compact $p$-adic manifolds" over new period maps on moduli spaces of abelian…
We prove a $p$-adic version of the Integral Geometry Formula for averaging the intersection of two $p$-adic projective algebraic sets. We apply this result to give bounds on the number of points in the modulo $p^m$ reduction of a projective…
