We show that the $p$-group complex of a finite group $G$ is homotopy equivalent to a wedge of spheres of dimension at most $n$ if $G$ contains a self-centralising normal subgroup $H$ which is isomorphic to a group of Lie type and Lie rank…
We study hyperbolicity properties of the moduli space of polarized abelian varieties (also known as the Siegel modular variety) in characteristic $p$. Our method uses the plethysm operation for Schur functors as a key ingredient and…

We prove that weights of two Siegel modular forms of nonquadratic nebentypus should satisfy some congruence relations if these modular forms are congruent to each other. Applying this result, we prove that there are no mod $p$ singular…

We study valued fields equipped with an automorphism $\sigma$ which is locally infinitely contracting in the sense that $\alpha\ll\sigma\alpha$ for all $0<\alpha\in\Gamma$. We show that various notions of valuation theory, such as Henselian…
We consider a finite permutation group acting naturally on a vector space $V$ over a field $\Bbbk$. A well known theorem of G\"obel asserts that the corresponding ring of invariants $\Bbbk[V]^G$ is generated by invariants of degree at most…
Let $K$ be a field of characteristic zero and let $R=K[X_1, \ldots,X_n ]$, with standard grading. Let $\mathfrak{m}= (X_1, \ldots, X_n)$ and let $E$ be the $^*$injective hull of $R/\mathfrak{m}.$ Let $A_n(K)$ be the $n^{th}$ Weyl algebra…
Given an embedded smooth projective variety Y in CP^n, we show how the existence of a hypersurface with high multiplicity along Y, but of relatively low degree and log canonical near Y implies vanishing of higher cohomology for certain…
Let $\mathbb{V}$ be a motivic variation of Hodge structure on a $K$-variety $S$, let $\mathcal{H}$ be the associated $K$-algebraic Hodge bundle, and let $\sigma \in \textrm{Aut}(\mathbb{C}/K)$ be an automorphism. The absolute Hodge…
We show that the algebraic automorphism group of the SL(2,C) character variety of a closed orientable surface with negative Euler characteristic is a finite extension of its mapping class group. Along the way, we provide a simple…
In this article we study conditions under which weight one Koszul cohomology vanishes on projective varieties. As corollary of more general results, we obtain statements on the so-called property (M_q) reflecting on the higher syzygies of…
For a wide class of Dirichlet series associated to automorphic forms, we show that those without Euler products must have zeros within the region of absolute convergence. For instance, we prove that if f is a classical holomorphic modular…
We investigate $p$-adic automorphic forms on unitary groups through the geometry of infinite-level unitary Shimura varieties and the Hodge-Tate period map. We first develop a perfectoid construction of overconvergent automorphic forms.…
We show that the Taylor-Wiles method can be applied to the cohomology of a Shimura variety $S$ of PEL type attached to a unitary similitude group $G$, with coefficients in the coherent sheaf attached to an automorphic vector bundle $\CF$ ,…

In this paper, we study the Andr\'e-Quillen homology of simplicial commutative $\ell$-algebras, $\ell$ a field, having certain vanishing properties. When $\ell$ has non-zero characteristic, we obtain an algebraic version of a theorem of…
It is shown that an irreducible cubic hypersurface with nonzero Hessian and smooth singular locus is the secant variety of a Severi variety if and only if its Lie algebra of infinitesimal linear automorphisms admits a nonzero prolongation.
We give a new proof of the theorem stating that for any connected linear algebraic group G over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 0 and for any closed connected subgroup H of G, the unramified Brauer group of G/H vanishes.
Let $X$ be a connected affine homogenous space of a linear algebraic group $G$ over $\C$. (1) If $X$ is different from a line or a torus we show that the space of all algebraic vector fields on $X$ coincides with the Lie algebra generated…
