We prove that any projective coadmissible module over the locally analytic distribution algebra of a compact $p$-adic Lie group is finitely generated. In particular, the category of coadmissible modules does not have enough projectives. In…

We prove that a finitely generated group contains a sequence of non-trivial elements which converge to the identity in every compact homomorphic image if and only if the group is not virtually abelian.

Brylinski and Deligne have provided a framework to study central extensions of reductive groups by K2 over a field F. Such central extensions can be used to construct central extensions of p-adic groups by finite cyclic groups, including…

Lazard showed in his seminal work "Groupes analytiques $p$-adiques" that for rational coefficients continuous group cohomology of $p$-adic Lie-groups is isomorphic to Lie-algebra cohomology. We refine this result in two directions: firstly…

The goal of this paper is to present some results and (more importantly) state a number of conjectures suggesting that the representation theory of symplectic reflection algebras for wreath products categorifies certain structures in the…

We exhibit a simple construction, based on elementary linear algebra, for a class of examples of finite $p$-groups of nilpotence class $2$ all of whose automorphisms are central.

We consider abelain subgroups of small index in finite groups. More generally, we consider subgroups such that the product of their index by the index of their centralizer is small.

It is shown that the relatively free centre-by-metabelian and (class-2 nilpotent)-by-abelian pro-p groups on 2 generators are each finitely axiomatizable in the class of all profinite groups.

The solubilizer of an element $x$ of a profinite group $G$ is the set of the elements $y$ of $G$ such that the subgroup of $G$ generated by $x$ and $y$ is prosoluble. We propose the following conjecture: the solubilizer of $x$ in $G$ has…

A group $G$ is said to have restricted centralizers if for every $x\in G$ the centralizer $C_G(x)$ either is finite or has finite index in $G$. Shalev showed that a profinite group with restricted centralizers is virtually abelian. Here we…

In 2007, B. Poonen (unpublished) studied the $p$--adic closure of a subgroup of rational points on a commutative algebraic group. More recently, J. Bella\"iche asked the same question for the special case of Abelian varieties. These…

For $G$ a symplectic or orthogonal $p$-adic group (not necessarily split), or an inner form of a general linear $p$-adic group, we compute the endomorphism algebras of some induced projective generators \`a la Bernstein of the category of…

In this paper, we focus on how we can interpret the actions of the elements in the Gelfand spectrum of a weighted Fourier algebra on connected Lie groups. They can be viewed as evaluations on specific points of the complexification of the…

We survey noetherian rings $A$ over which the injective hull of every simple module is locally artinian. Then we give a general construction for algebras $A$ that do not have this property. In characteristic 0, we also complete the…

Given a family of intermediate Jacobians (for a polarized variation of Hodge structure of weight -1) on a Zariski-open subset of a complex manifold, we construct an analytic space that naturally extends the family. Its two main properties…

It is proved that a profinite group $G$ has fewer than $2^{\aleph_0}$ conjugacy classes of $p$-elements for an odd prime $p$ if and only if its $p$-Sylow subgroups are finite. (Here, by a $p$-element one understands an element that either…

The Weil representation of the symplectic group associated to a finite abelian group of odd order is shown to have a multiplicity-free decomposition. When the abelian group is p-primary, the irreducible representations occurring in the Weil…

In this paper we present new examples of simple $p$-local compact groups for all odd primes. We also develop the necessary tools to show saturation, simpleness and the non-realizability as $p$-compact groups or compact Lie groups, which can…

In this paper we describe all gradings by abelian groups without elements of order p, where p > 2 is the characteristic of the base field, on the simple graded Cartan type Lie algebras.

This paper gives an algebraic characterization of expansive actions of countable abelian groups on compact abelian groups. This naturally extends the classification of expansive algebraic $\mathbb{Z}^d$-actions given by Schmidt using…
