This paper contains a thorough investigation of invariant distributions supported on limit sets of discrete groups acting convex cocompactly on symmetric spaces of negative curvature. It can be considered as a continuation of…
We study the homotopy groups of complements to reducible divisors on non-singular projective varieties with ample components and isolated non normal crossings. We prove a vanishing theorem generalizing conditions for commutativity of the…
We prove that the homotopy algebraic K-theory of tame quasi-DM stacks satisfies cdh-descent. We apply this descent result to prove that if X is a Noetherian tame quasi-DM stack and i < -dim(X), then K_i(X)[1/n] = 0 (resp. K_i(X, Z/n) = 0)…
We consider stationary extremal black hole solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell equations with a negative cosmological constant in four dimensions. We determine all non-static axisymmetric near-horizon geometries (with non-toroidal horizon…
For given integers $m,n \geq 2$ there are examples of ideals $I$ of complete determinantal local rings $(R,\mathfrak{m}), \dim R = m+n-1, \operatorname{grade} I = n-1,$ with the canonical module $\omega_R$ and the property that the socle…
We show that closures of families of unitary local systems on quasiprojective varieties for which the dimension of a graded component of Hodge filtration has a constant value can be identified with a finite union of polytopes. We also…
We classify all tilting classes over an arbitrary commutative ring via certain sequences of Thomason subsets of the spectrum, generalizing the classification for noetherian commutative rings by…
In this paper we study the second cohomology space for the $n$-th Schr\"{o}dinger algebra $\mathfrak{sch}_n$. We prove that the second cohomology space is vanishing for $n \geq 3$ and show that $\dim(H^2(\mathfrak{sch}_2, \mathfrak{sch}_2))…
This is the author's diploma thesis. In the first part of the thesis the algebra structure on the Ext-spaces Ext^k(M(x), M(y)) of Verma modules M(x) and M(y) in the parabolic category O for the case of the parabolic subalgebras gl(n) x…
We show how finiteness properties of a group and a subgroup transfer to finiteness properties of the Schlichting completion relative to this subgroup. Further, we provide a criterion when the dense embedding of a discrete group into the…
We prove an intrinsic analogue of Hawking's rigidity theorem for extremal horizons in arbitrary dimensions: any compact cross-section of a rotating extremal horizon in a spacetime satisfying the null energy condition must admit a Killing…
Looijenga's vanishing theorem on the moduli space of curves $M_g$ says that the tautological ring vanishes above degree $g-2$. We prove an analogous result for the tautological cohomology ring of the moduli space of K3 surfaces.
Graded skew-commutative rings occur often in practice. Here are two examples: 1) The cohomology ring of a compact three-dimensional manifold. 2) The cohomology ring of the complement of a hyperplane arrangement (the Orlik-Solomon algebra).…
The irreducible unitary highest weight representations $(\pi_\lambda,\mathcal{H}_\lambda)$ of the group $U(\infty)$, which is the countable direct limit of the compact unitary groups $U(n)$, are classified by the orbits of the weights…
It is well known that the positive degree cohomology of a finite group G is annihilated by |G|. We improve on this bound in the case of odd degree elements in the integer cohomology ring and show that $e_{odd}(G)$, the exponent of the…

Dieter Happel asked the following question: If the $n$-th Hochschild cohomology group of a finite dimensional algebra $\Gamma$ over a field vanishes for all sufficiently large $n$, is the global dimension of $\Gamma$ finite? We give a…
We prove the existence of extremal, non-csc, K\"ahler metrics on certain unstable projectivised vector bundles $\P (E) \to M$ over a cscK-manifold $M$ with discrete holomorphic automorphism group, in certain adiabatic K\"ahler classes. In…
We prove uniqueness theorems for asymptotically flat, stationary, extremal, vacuum black hole solutions, in four and five dimensions with one and two commuting rotational Killing fields respectively. As in the non-extremal case, these…
Let M be a topological manifold modelled on topological vector spaces, which is the union of an ascending sequence of such manifolds M_n. We formulate a mild condition ensuring that the k-th homotopy group of M is the direct limit of the…
