We study Artin kernels, i.e. kernels of discrete characters of right-angled Artin groups, and we show that they decompose as graphs of groups in a way that can be explicitly computed from the underlying graph. When the underlying graph is…

We survey some topics in ${\mathbb A}^1$-homotopy theory. Our main goal is to highlight the interplay between ${\mathbb A}^1$-homotopy theory and affine algebraic geometry, focusing on the varieties that are "contractible" from various…

We prove a canonical Kunneth decomposition for the motive of a commutative group scheme over a field. Moreover, we show that this decomposition behaves under the group law just as in cohomology. We also deduce applications of the…

We show that the reduced motive of a smooth affine quadric is invertible as an object of the triangulated category of motives DM(k, ZZ[1/e]) (where k is a perfect field of exponential characteristic e). We also establish a motivic version…

We determine the image of the Artin groups of types B and D inside the Iwahori-Hecke algebras, when defined over finite fields, in the semisimple case. This generalizes earlier work on type A by Brunat, Magaard and Marin. In this…

This paper gives an overview of a theory for modelling the interaction between geometric image transformations and receptive field responses for a visual observer that views objects and spatio-temporal events in the environment. This…

In this survey on local additive invariants of real and complex definable singular germs we systematically present classical or more recent invariants of different nature as emerging from a tame degeneracy principle. For this goal, we…

We consider the set of forms of a toric variety over an arbitrary field: those varieties which become isomorphic to a toric variety after base field extension. In contrast to most previous work, we also consider arbitrary isomorphisms…

The quadric $\operatorname{Q}_{2n}$ is the ${\mathbb Z}$-scheme defined by the equation $\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i = z(1-z)$. We show that $\operatorname{Q}_{2n}$ is a homogeneous space for the split reductive group scheme…

We study the orthogonal projection of homogeneous polynomials onto the space of homogeneous polyharmonic polynomials. To do this we derive the decomposition of homogeneous polynomials in terms of the Kelvin transform of derivatives of the…

We survey the Mumford construction of degenerating abelian varieties, with a focus on the analytic version of the construction, and its relation to toric geometry. Moreover, we study the geometry and Hodge theory of multivariable…

We study some properties of quadratic forms with values in a field whose underlying vector spaces are endowed with the structure of right vector spaces over a division ring extension of that field. Some generalized notions of isotropy,…

We start by developing a theory of noncommutative (=NC) mixed motives with coefficients in any commutative ring. In particular, we construct a symmetric monoidal triangulated category of NC mixed motives, over a base field k, and a full…

We generalize the decomposition theorem for perverse sheaves to Artin stacks with affine stabilizers over finite fields.

We study deformations of affine toric varieties. The entire deformation theory of these singularities is encoded by the so-called versal deformation. The main goal of our paper is to construct the homogeneous part of some degree -R of this,…

This dissertation presents a multifaceted look into the structural decomposition of permutation classes. The theory of permutation patterns is a rich and varied field, and is a prime example of how an accessible and intuitive definition…

We study the homogeneous involutions on the full square matrices over an algebraically closed field endowed with a division grading with commutative support. We obtain the classification of the isomorphism and equivalence classes for the…

The main result of this paper is a computation of the motivic cohomology of varieties of n \times m-matrices of of rank m, including both the ring structure and the action of the reduced power operations. The argument proceeds by a…

The study of homological invariants such as Tor, Ext and local cohomology modules constitutes an important direction in commutative algebra. Explicit descriptions of these invariants are notoriously difficult to find and often involve…

We develop some basic facts on deformations of exterior differential ideals on a smooth complex algebraic variety. With these tools we study deformations of several types of differential ideals, leading to several irreducible components of…
