We prove the following uniformity principle: if one of the Galois representations in the family attached to a genus two Siegel cusp form of weight $k>3$, "semistable" and with multiplicity one, is reducible (for an odd prime $p$),then all…
For flat proper families of algebraic varieties with a smooth fiber, we describe the abelian category of coherent sheaves on the generic fiber as a Serre quotient. As an application, we prove specialization of derived equivalence. As…
We consider the distribution of p-power group schemes among the torsion of abelian varieties over finite fields of characteristic p, as follows. Fix natural numbers g and n, and let $\xi$ be a non-supersingular principally quasipolarized…
We compute a number of invariants of singularities defined via the Frobenius morphism for seminormal affine toric varieties over fields of characteristic p > 0. Our main technical tool is a combinatorial description of the potential…
For an unramified connected reductive group $G$ defined over a number field $F$, consider the part of the spherical automorphic spectrum with cuspidal support $[T,\mathcal{O}(\chi)]$, where $T$ is a maximal torus and $\chi$ is an unramified…
This is a brief review of our recent work attempted at a generalization of the Grassmann algebra to the paragrassmann ones. The main aim is constructing an algebraic basis for representing `fractional' symmetries appearing in $2D$…
We prove that a finite group $G$ has a normal Sylow $p$-subgroup $P$ if, and only if, every irreducible character of $G$ appearing in the permutation character $({\bf 1}_P)^G$ with multiplicity coprime to $p$ has degree coprime to $p$. This…
Let $k$ be a number field, let ${\mathcal{A}}$ be a commutative algebraic group defined over $k$ and let $p$ be a prime number. Let ${\mathcal{A}}[p]$ denote the $p$-torsion subgroup of ${\mathcal{A}}$. We give some sufficient conditions…
Tractable generalizations of the Gaussian distribution play an important role for the analysis of high-dimensional data. One very general super-class of Normal distributions is the class of $\nu$-spherical distributions whose random…
The Temperley-Lieb and Brauer algebras and their cyclotomic analogues, as well as the partition algebra, are all examples of twisted semigroup algebras. We prove a general theorem about the cellularity of twisted semigroup algebras of…
Recently, Cochran and Harvey defined torsion-free derived series of groups and proved an injectivity theorem on the associated torsion-free quotients. We show that there is a universal construction which extends such an injectivity theorem…
We consider random matrices whose entries are f(<Xi,Xj>) or f(||Xi-Xj||^2) for iid vectors Xi in R^p with normalized distribution. Assuming that f is sufficiently smooth and the distribution of Xi's is sufficiently nice, El Karoui [17]…
We show that every action of a smooth algebraic group on a variety admits a normal projective model. Along the way, we present new proofs of some basic results on algebraic transformation groups, including Weil's regularization theorem.
We study fluctuations in the distribution of families of $p$-th Fourier coefficients $a_f(p)$ of normalised holomorphic Hecke eigenforms $f$ of weight $k$ with respect to $SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$ as $k \to \infty$ and primes $p \to \infty.$ These…
We investigate the theory of affine group schemes over a symmetric tensor category, with particular attention to the tangent space at the identity. We show that this carries the structure of a restricted Lie algebra, and can be viewed as…
In this paper, we construct and classify a new family of flips, called generalized Grassmannian flips, by generalizing the construction of standard flips for $\mathbb{P}^m\times \mathbb{P}^n$ to any generalized Grassmannian $G/P$, where $P$…
We extend the group theoretic construction of local models of Pappas and Zhu to the case of groups obtained by Weil restriction along a possibly wildly ramified extension. This completes the construction of local models for all reductive…
We give an intrinsic parametrisation of the set of tamely ramified extensions of a local field with finite residue field and bring to the fore the role played by group cohomology. We show that two natural definitions of the cohomology class…
With suitable order of limits, as p, m, and n all tend to infinity, the distribution of the normalized trace of Frobenius on H^1 of a "random" plane curve of degree n over the field with p^m elements, tends to a Gaussian distribution. The…
We study reductive subgroups $H$ of a reductive linear algebraic group $G$ -- possibly non-connected -- such that $H$ contains a regular unipotent element of $G$. We show that under suitable hypotheses, such subgroups are $G$-irreducible in…
