A ring with an Auslander dualizing complex is a generalization of an Auslander-Gorenstein ring. We show that many results which hold for Auslander-Gorenstein rings also hold in the more general setting. On the other hand we give criteria…

Let $K$ be a number field with ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_K$ and let $G$ be a finite group. Given a $G$-Galois $K$-algebra $K_h$, let $\mathcal{O}_h$ denote its ring of integers. If $K_h/K$ is tame, then a classical theorem of E. Noether…

The notion of entropy appears in many fields and this paper is a survey about entropies in several branches of Mathematics. We are mainly concerned with the topological and the algebraic entropy in the context of continuous endomorphisms of…

In this paper we determine the representation type of some algebras of infinite matrices continuously controlled at infinity by a compact metrizable space. We explicitly classify their finitely presented modules in the finite and tame…

This paper is the last part of a comprehensive survey of a newly emerging field: a topological approach to the study of locally finite graphs that crucially incorporates their ends. Topological arcs and circles, which may pass through ends,…

In this paper we will prove a strong version of the celebrated purity of the ramification locus theorem in algebraic geometry. Our key input is a Tor-independence result for global sections of \'{e}tale schemes over excellent regular local…

We initiate a systematic study of the perfection of affine group schemes of finite type over fields of positive characteristic. The main result intrinsically characterises and classifies the perfections of reductive groups, and obtains a…

Regular groups and fields are common generalizations of minimal and quasi-minimal groups and fields, so the conjectures that minimal or quasi-minimal fields are algebraically closed have their common generalization to the conjecture that…

Let R be an excellent local ring, m its maximal ideal and I an ideal. Then there exists a positive integer c such that for all integers n, the integral closure of (I + m^n) is contained in m^(n/c) + the integral closure of I. In the proof,…

We define the universal thickening of the field of real numbers. This construction is performed in three steps which parallel the universal perfection, the Witt construction and a completion process. We show that the transposition of the…

We prove that, under mild assumptions, a lattice in a product of semi-simple Lie group and a totally disconnected locally compact group is, in a certain sense, arithmetic. We do not assume the lattice to be finitely generated or the ambient…

In this note we give a detailed proof of certain results on geometry of numbers in the $S$-adic case. These results are well-known to experts, so the aim here is to provide a convenient reference for the people who need to use them.

We first give simplified and corrected accounts of some results in \cite{PiRCP} on compactifications of pseudofinite groups. For instance, we use a classical theorem of Turing \cite{Turing} to give a simplified proof that any definable…

In this paper, new advances on the compactifications of topological spaces, especially on the Stone-\v{C}ech and Alexandroff compactifications have been made. Among the main results, it is proved that the minimal spectrum of the direct…

In this note we answer the question raised by D. Goss in [Applications of non-Archimedean integration to the $L$-series of $\tau$-sheaves, {\em J. Number Theory,} 110 (2005), no. 1, 83--113] by proving that the group of locally analytic…

Let $B$ be a central simple algebra of degree $n$ over a number field $K$, and $L\subset B$ a strictly maximal subfield. We say that the ring of integers $\mathcal O_L$ is "selective" if there exists an isomorphism class of maximal orders…

Every finite local principal ideal ring is the homomorphic image of a discrete valuation ring of a number field, and is determined by five invariants. We present an action of a group, non-commutative in general, on the set of Eisenstein…

We examine a unique construction of the real numbers which proceeds directly from the integers using approximately linear-endomorphisms with finite error, called near-endomorphisms. In this paper, we show that the set of near-endomorphisms…

Let R be a local Noetherian domain of positive characteristic. A theorem of Hochster and Huneke (1992) states that if R is excellent, then the absolute integral closure of R is a big Cohen-Macaulay algebra. We prove that if R is the…

We show that a locally symmetric space of noncompact type and with finite volume is quasi-isometric to the euclidean cone over a finite simplicial complex. A detailed analysis of metric properties yields a proof of a conjecture of Siegel.
