Quasiperiodic patterns described by polyhedral "atomic surfaces" and admitting matching rules are considered. It is shown that the cohomology ring of the continuous hull of such patterns is isomorphic to that of the complement of a torus…

We provide a parametrisation of a loxodrome by three specially arranged cycles. The parametrisation is covariant under fractional linear transformations of the complex plane and naturally encodes conformal properties of loxodromes. Selected…

We present a geometric setting for the differential Galois theory of $G$-invariant connections with parameters. As an application of some classical results on differential algebraic groups and Lie algebra bundles, we see that the Galois…

We will announce two theorems. The first theorem will classify all topological types of degenerate fibers appearing in one-parameter families of Riemann surfaces, in terms of ``pseudoperiodic'' surface homeomorphisms. The second theorem…

The slope filtration theorem gives a partial analogue of the eigenspace decomposition of a linear transformation, for a Frobenius-semilinear endomorphism of a finite free module over the Robba ring (the ring of germs of rigid analytic…

In this article we introduce the notion of projective isomonodromy, which is a special type of monodromy evolving deformation of linear differential equations, based on the example of the Darboux-Halphen equation. We give an algebraic…

We produce first examples of p-local height three TAF homology theories. The corresponding one-dimensional formal groups arise as split summands of the formal groups of certain abelian three-folds, the Shimura variety of which can be…

We start with a small paradigm shift about group representations, namely the observation that restriction to a subgroup can be understood as an extension-of-scalars. We deduce that, given a group $G$, the derived and the stable categories…

Let $k/\mathbb F_p$ denote a finite field. For any split connected reductive group $G/W(k)$ and certain CM number fields $F$, we deform certain Galois representations $\overline\rho:Gal(\overline F/F) \to G(k)$ to continuous families…

We study relations between reflections in (positive or negative) points in the complex hyperbolic plane. It is easy to see that the reflections in the points q_1,q_2 obtained from p_1,p_2 by moving p_1,p_2 along the geodesic generated by…

We construct polynomial automorphisms with wandering Fatou components. The four-dimensional automorphisms $H$ lie in a one-parameter family, depending on the parameter $\delta \in \mathbb C \setminus \{0\}$, and as $\delta \rightarrow 0$…

Let $X=SL_3(\R)/SO(3)$. Let $\cal DFR$ be the space of discrete faithful representations of the modular group into ${\rm Isom\/}(X)$ which map the order $2$ generator to an isometry with a unique fixed point. In this paper, we prove that…

We prove two results about the natural representation of a group G of automorphisms of a normal projective threefold X on its second cohomology. We show that if X is minimal then G, modulo a normal subgroup of null entropy, is embedded as a…

We prove automorphy lifting theorems for 2-dimensional Galois representations of absolute Galois groups of totally real fields when the residual representation is of "exceptional" type. This exceptional case is when we are in characteristic…

By a map we mean a $2$-cell decomposition of a closed compact surface, i.e., an embedding of a graph such that every face is homeomorphic to an open disc. Automorphism of a map can be thought of as a permutation of the vertices which…

We present a new description of the genus 3 Arnoux--Yoccoz translation surface in terms of its Delaunay polygons and show that, up to affine equivalence, it belongs to two families of surfaces whose isometry groups include the dihedral…

We construct a combinatorial model that is described by the cube recurrence, a nonlinear recurrence relation introduced by Propp, which generates families of Laurent polynomials indexed by points in $\mathbb{Z}^3$. In the process, we prove…

We construct the ordinary irreducible representations of the group of automorphisms of a finite rooted tree and we get a natural parametrization of them. To achieve this goals, we introduce and study the combinatorics of tree compositions,…

The study of modular representation theory of the double covering groups of the symmetric and alternating groups reveals rich and subtle combinatorial and algebraic phenomena involving their irreducible characters and the structure of their…

A superposition of a matrix ensemble refers to the ensemble constructed from two independent copies of the original, while a decimation refers to the formation of a new ensemble by observing only every second eigenvalue. In the cases of the…
