The dissertation focuses on decomposing a group algebra $kG$ over a field of positive characteristic into a direct sum of projective indecomposable modules. Such a decomposition is obtained together with the Artin--Wedderburn Theorem. The…

The ring of dual integers is the bounded polynomial ring $\mathbb Z[\epsilon]=\mathbb Z[T]/(T^2)$ with integer coefficients. We describe the (finitely generated) Gorenstein-projective $\mathbb Z[\epsilon]$-modules as the torsionless…

We give a characterisation of those local not necessary commutative rings, for which the category of projective modules admits a triangulation with the identity as translation functor. By "admits a triangulation" we mean that the category…

The Gromov-Lawson-Rosenberg conjecture for a group G states that a compact spin manifold with fundamental group G admits a metric of positive scalar curvature if and only if a certain topological obstruction vanishes. It is known to be true…

This paper deals with sufficiency conditions for irreducibility of certain induced modules. We also construct irreducible representations for a group $G$ over a field ${\mathbb K}$ where the group $G$ is a semidirect product of a normal…

Let $\mathbb{H}\trianglelefteq\mathbb{G}$ be a closed normal subgroup of a locally compact quantum group. We introduce a strictly positive group-like element affiliated with $L^{\infty}(\mathbb{G})$ that, roughly, measures the failure of…

The first part of this article is devoted to characterizing the cocycles $\alpha$ of a finite group $G$ that give rise to faithful projective representations of $G$. We prove that a $p$-group $G$ admits a faithful irreducible projective…

Let $A\subset B$ be an extension of commutative reduced rings and $M\subset N$ an extension of positive commutative cancellative torsion-free monoids. We prove that $A$ is subintegrally closed in $B$ and $M$ is subintegrally closed in $N$…

A Lie algebra is said to be generalised reductive if it is a direct sum of a semisimple Lie algebra and a commutative radical. In this paper we extend the BGG category $\mathcal{O}$ over complex semisimple Lie algebras to the category…

We introduce the class of projective reflection groups which includes all complex reflection groups. We show that several aspects involving the combinatorics and the representation theory of all non exceptional irreducible complex…

We fix a path model for the space of filters of the inverse semigroup $\mathcal{S}_\Lambda$ associated to a left cancellative small category $\Lambda$. Then, we compute its tight groupoid, thus giving a representation of its $C^*$-algebra…

In this paper, sufficient conditions for finitely generated modules over a commutative noetherian ring to be projective are given in terms of vanishing of Ext modules. One of the main results of this paper asserts that the Auslander--Reiten…

Following Gluck and Wolf we complete the It\^o--Michler's Theorem for the projective representations of a $p$-solvable or $\pi$-separable group, and then we relate the projective irreducible modules of such a group with those of its Sylow…

We prove cancellation theorems for reciprocity sheaves and cube-invariant modulus sheaves with transfers of Kahn--Saito--Yamazaki, generalizing Voevodsky's cancellation theorem for $\mathbf{A}^1$-invariant sheaves with transfers. As an…

We give a new construction of a C*-algebra from a cancellative semigroup $P$ via partial isometric representations, generalising the construction from the second named author's thesis. We then study our construction in detail for the…

We prove a reduction theorem for capacity of positive maps of finite dimensional C*-algebras, thus reducing the computation of capacity to the case when the image of a nonscalar projection is never a projection.

Let k be an infinite perfect field of positive characteristic p and assume that strong resolution of singularities holds over k. We prove that, if X is a d-dimensional noetherian scheme whose underlying reduced scheme is essentially of…

Let $R$ be any ring. We prove that all direct products of flat right $R$-modules have finite flat dimension if and only if each finitely generated left ideal of $R$ has finite projective dimension relative to the class of all $\mathcal…

We consider deformations of bounded complexes of modules for a profinite group G over a field of positive characteristic. We prove a finiteness theorem which provides some sufficient conditions for the versal deformation of such a complex…

We formulate a notion of "geometric reductivity" in an abstract categorical setting which we refer to as adequacy. The main theorem states that the adequacy condition implies that the ring of invariants is finitely generated. This result…
