In this paper, we study $(\varphi,\Gamma)$-modules over rings which are "combinations of discrete algebras and affinoid $\mathbb{Q}_p$-algebras", and prove basic results such as the existence of a fully faithful functor from the category of…

It was shown recently that many of the Gustafson integrals appear in studies of the ${\rm SL}(2,\mathbb{R})$ spin chain models. One can hope to obtain a generalization of the Gustafson integrals considering spin chain models with a…

In a recent work, a dual formulation of group field theories as non-commutative quantum field theories has been proposed, providing an exact duality between spin foam models and non-commutative simplicial path integrals for constrained BF…

The realizations of the exceptional non-linear (quadratically generated, or W-type) N=8 and N=7 superconformal algebras with Spin(7) and G_2 affine symmetry currents are reviewed. Both the N=8 and N=7 algebras admit unitary realizations in…

We study gauge and gravitational anomalies of fermions and 2-form fields on eight-dimensional spin manifolds. Possible global gauge anomalies are classified by spin bordism groups $\Omega^{\text{spin}}_9(BG)$ which we determine by spectral…

For $N\!=\!2$ SUSY theories with non-vanishing $\beta$-function and one-dimensional quantum moduli, we study the representation on the special coordinates of the group of motions on the quantum moduli defined by…

Let $\GSpin(V)$ (resp. $\GPin(V)$) be a general spin group (resp. a general Pin group) associated with a nondegenerate quadratic space $V$ of dimension $n$ over an Archimedean local field $F$. For a nondegenerate quadratic space $W$ of…

We explore generalized symmetry in the context of nonlinear dynamical gravity. Our basic strategy is to transcribe known results from Yang-Mills theory directly to gravity via the tetrad formalism, which recasts general relativity as a…

This is a further investigation of our approach to group actions in homological algebra in the settings of homology of {\Gamma}-simplicial groups, particularly of {\Gamma}-equivariant homology and cohomology of {\Gamma}-groups. This…

We study ``change of weights'' maps between loci of the stack of $(\varphi,\Gamma)$-modules over the Robba ring with integral Hodge-Tate-Sen weights. We show that in the $\mathrm{GL}_2(\mathbb{Q}_p)$ case these maps can realize translations…

Let $G\subset\GL(\BC^r)$ be a finite complex reflection group. We show that when $G$ is irreducible, apart from the exception $G=\Sgot_6$, as well as for a large class of non-irreducible groups, any automorphism of $G$ is the product of a…

Let \Gamma be a finite group and (V,q) be a regular quadratic \Gamma-form defined over an integral domain $\mathcal{O}_S$ of a global function field (of odd characteristic). We use flat cohomology to classify the quadratic \Gamma-forms…

We propose a generalization of the isometry transformations to the geometric context of the field theories with spin where the local frames are explicitly involved. We define the external symmetry transformations as isometries combined with…

In earlier works, it was seen that a ${\mathbb Z}/2$ orbifold of the theory of 24 free two-dimensional chiral fermions admits various sporadic finite simple groups as global symmetry groups when viewed as an ${\cal N}=1$, ${\cal N}=2$, or…

We strengthen the compatibility between local and global Langlands correspondences for GL_{n} when n is even and l=p. Let L be a CM field and \Pi\ a cuspidal automorphic representation of GL_{n}(\mathbb{A}_{L}) which is conjugate self-dual…

Suppose that $\tilde{G}$ is a connected reductive group defined over a field $k$, and $\Gamma$ is a finite group acting via $k$-automorphisms of $\tilde{G}$ satisfying a certain quasi-semisimplicity condition. Then the connected part of the…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic two. Let R be the ring of Witt vectors of length two over k. We construct a group stack \hat G over k, the metaplectic extension of the Greenberg realization of Sp_{2n}(R). We also…

Let $\Bbbk$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and let $\Gamma$ be an additive subgroup of $\Bbbk$. Results of Kaplansky-Santharoubane and Su classify intermediate series representations of the generalised Witt algebra…

Let F be a finitely generated field of characteristic zero and \Gamma<GL_n(F) a finitely generated subgroup. For an element g in \Gamma, let Gal(F(g)/ F) be the Galois group of the splitting field of the characteristic polynomial of g over…

In this paper we show that Atkin and Swinnerton-Dyer type of congruences hold for weakly modular forms (modular forms that are permitted to have poles at cusps). Unlike the case of original congruences for cusp forms, these congruences are…
