We report on a new approach, as well as some related experiments, to construct families of K3 surfaces having real or complex multiplication. The approach is based on an explicit description of the transcendental part of the cohomology in a…

Given a Brauer class on a K3 surface defined over a number field, we prove that there exists infinitely many reductions where the Brauer class vanishes, under certain technical hypotheses, answering a question of…

We solve Abreu's equation with periodic right hand side, in any dimension. This can be interpreted as prescribing the scalar curvature of a torus invariant metric on an Abelian variety.

In this paper, we define a generalization of the Brauer groups by using Bloch's cycle complex on etale site. We prove the Gersten conjecture of generalized Brauer group on some cases. As an application we prove the Gersten conjecture of the…

In this paper we study the behaviour of modules over finite dimensional algebras whose endomorphism algebra is a division ring. We show that there are finitely many such modules in the module category of an algebra if and only if the length…

The correspondence between the braid group on a solid torus of arbitrary genus and the algebra of Yang-Baxter and reflection equation operators is shown. A representation of this braid group in terms of $R$-matrices is given. The…

Recently, a new conjecture on the degrees of the irreducible Brauer characters of a finite group was presented by the second author. In this paper we propose a 'local' version of this conjecture for blocks B of finite groups, giving a lower…

Let $(\mathcal{A},\Theta)$ be a length category. We introduce the notation of Gabriel-Roiter measure with respect to $\Theta$ and extend Gabriel's main property to this setting. Using this measure, when $(\mathcal{A},\Theta)$ satisfies some…

The ${\overline{\mathbb Q}}$-algebra of periods was introduced by Kontsevich and Zagier as complex numbers whose real and imaginary parts are values of absolutely convergent integrals of ${\mathbb Q}$-rational functions over ${\mathbb…

Let $F$ be the function field of a smooth curve over the $p$-adic number field $\Q_p$. We show that for each prime-to-$p$ number $n$ the $n$-torsion subgroup $\H^2(F,\mu_n)={}_n\Br(F)$ is generated by $\Z/n$-cyclic classes; in fact the…

We construct time almost-periodic solutions (global in time) with finite regularity to the incompressible Euler equations on the torus $\T^d$, with $d=3$ and $d\in\N$ even.

For every odd prime $p$, we exhibit families of irreducible Artin representations $\tau$ with the property that for every elliptic curve $E$ the order of the zero of the twisted $L$-function $L(E,\tau,s)$ at $s\!=\!1$ must be a…

We present an index calculus algorithm with double large prime variation which lends itself well to a rigorous analysis. Using this algorithm we prove that for fixed genus $g \geq 2$, the discrete logarithm problem in degree 0 class groups…

We prove a Lagrangian analogue of the Conley conjecture: given a 1-periodic Tonelli Lagrangian with global flow on a closed configuration space, the associated Euler-Lagrange system has infinitely many periodic solutions. More precisely, we…

Let $K/k$ be an abelian extension of number fields with a distinguished place of $k$ that splits totally in $K$. In that situation, the abelian rank one Stark conjecture predicts the existence of a unit in $K$, called the Stark unit,…

We construct universal Brauer-Severi varieties of fixed period and index and study their geometry. We determine their cohomology and their Brauer and Picard groups and show that they are almost always simply connected. As an application, we…

The periods, introduced by Kontsevich and Zagier, form a class of complex numbers which contains all algebraic numbers and several transcendental quantities. Little has been known about qualitative properties of periods. In this paper, we…

Let X be a smooth variety over a number field k embedded as a degree d subvariety of $\mathbb{P}^n$ and suppose that X is a counterexample to the Hasse principle explained by the Brauer-Manin obstruction. We consider the question of whether…

We prove some new evaluations for multiple polylogarithms of arbitrary depth. The simplest of our results is a multiple zeta evaluation one order of complexity beyond the well-known Broadhurst-Zagier formula. Other results we provide settle…

Let $n$ be an even natural number. We compute the periods of any $\frac{n}{2}$-dimensional complete intersection algebraic cycle inside an $n$-dimensional non-degenerated intersection of a projective simplicial toric variety. Using this…
