Consider a Hamiltonian action of a compact connected Lie group $G$ on an aspherical symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$. Under suitable assumptions, counting gauge equivalence classes of (symplectic) vortices on the plane $R^2$ conjecturally…
Let $V$ be an algebraic variety over $\mathbb R$. The purpose of this paper is to compare its algebraic Witt group $W(V)$ with a new topological invariant $WR(V_{\mathbb C})$, based on symmetric forms on Real vector bundles (in the sense of…
We calculate the Grothendieck group $K_0(\cal A)$, where $\cal A$ is an additive category, locally finite over a Dedekind ring and satisfying some additional conditions. The main examples are categories of modules over finite algebras and…
In this paper we consider certain local-global principles for Mordell-Weil type groups over number fields like S-units, abelian varieties and algebraic K-theory groups
We construct a family of moduli spaces, called generalized Lagrangian flag schemes, that are reducible Gorenstein (hence singular), and that admit well-behaved pushforward and pullback operations in Hermitian $K$-theory. These schemes arise…
Let G be a p-adic reductive group, and R an algebraically closed field. Let us consider a smooth representation of G on an R-vector space V. Fix an open compact subgroup K of G and a smooth irreducible representation of K on a…
In this paper we prove the theorem of the heart for Weibel's homotopy $K$-theory $KH.$ Namely, if $\mathcal{C}$ is a small stable $\infty$-category with a bounded $t$-structure, then the realization functor $D^b(\mathcal{C}^{\heartsuit})\to…
We adapt Quillen's calculation of graded K-groups of Z-graded rings with support in N to graded K-theory, allowing gradings in a product Z \times G with G an arbitrary group. This in turn allows us to use inductions and calculate graded…
Let k be a perfect field of characteristic p and let $W_n(k)$ denote the p-typical Witt vectors of length n. For example, $W_n(\mathbb{F}_p)=\mathbb{Z}/p^n$. We study the algebraic K-theory of $W_n(k)$, and prove that $K(W_n(k))$ satisfies…
Let $A \to B$ be a $G$-Galois extension of rings, or more generally of $\mathbb{E}_\infty$-ring spectra in the sense of Rognes. A basic question in algebraic $K$-theory asks how close the map $K(A) \to K(B)^{hG}$ is to being an equivalence,…
Walker's cancellation theorem says that if B+Z is isomorphic to C+Z in the category of abelian groups, then B is isomorphic to C. We construct an example in a diagram category of abelian groups where the theorem fails. As a consequence, the…
We develop a group-theoretical approach to the formulation of generalized abelian gauge theories, such as those appearing in string theory and M-theory. We explore several applications of this approach. First, we show that there is an…
Let $U'_q(\mathfrak{g})$ be a twisted affine quantum group of type $A_{N}^{(2)}$ or $D_{N}^{(2)}$ and let $\mathfrak{g}_{0}$ be the finite-dimensional simple Lie algebra of type $A_{N}$ or $D_{N}$. For a Dynkin quiver of type…
We extend the duality theory for topological groups from the classical theory for compact Lie groups, via the topological study by J. R. Klein [Kl01] and the p-complete study for p-compact groups by T. Bauer [Ba04], to a general duality…
We prove the Farrell-Jones Isomorphism Conjecture about the algebraic K-theory of a group ring RG in the case where the group G is the fundamental group of a closed Riemannian manifold with strictly negative sectional curvature. The…
We prove a localisation theorem for the K-theory of filtering subcategories of exact $\infty$-categories which subsumes the localisation theorem for stable $\infty$-categories, Quillen's localisation theorem for abelian categories, and…
In this paper we prove that the Hermite ring conjecture holds for valuation rings $V$, and the special liner group $SL_n(V[x])$ coincides with the group generated by elementary matrices $E_n(V[x])$ for $n\geq3$. For any arithmetical ring…
In this paper, we build on the work from our previous paper (arXiv:2002.01556) to show that periodic rational $G$-equivariant topological $K$-theory has a unique genuine-commutative ring structure for $G$ a finite abelian group. This means…
Let K be a Cantor set embedded in the real line R. Following Funar and Neretin, we define the diffeomorphism group of K as the group of homeomorphisms of K which locally look like a diffeomorphism between two intervals of R.…
For primes $q \equiv 7 \mod 16$, the present manuscript shows that elementary methods enable one to prove surprisingly strong results about the Iwasawa theory of the Gross family of elliptic curves with complex multiplication by the ring of…
