Let $G$ be a finite group of Lie type and $\ell$ be a prime which is not equal to the defining characteristic of $G$. In this note we discuss some open problems concerning the $\ell$-modular irreducible representations of $G$. We also…
Let E be a cyclic extension of degree p^n of a field F of characteristic p. Using arithmetic invariants of E/F we determine k_mE, the Milnor K-groups K_mE modulo p, as Fp[Gal(E/F)]-modules for all m in N. In particular, we show that each…
This article is concerned with the asymptotic behavior of certain sequences of ideals in rings of prime characteristic. These sequences, which we call $p$-families of ideals, are ubiquitous in prime characteristic commutative algebra (e.g.,…
For prime levels $5 \le p \le 19$, sets of $\Gamma_{0}(p)$-permuted theta quotients are constructed that generate the graded rings of modular forms of positive integer weight for $\Gamma_{1}(p)$. An explicit formulation of the permutation…
Let $F_p$ be the field of a prime order $p$. Then for any positive integer $n>1$, for any $\epsilon>0$, and for any subset $A$ of $F_p$, every element of $F_p$ can be represented as a sum of $N$ elements, each of them is a product of $n$…
We introduce the class of modules of constant Jordan type for a finite group scheme $G$ over a field $k$ of characteristic $p > 0$. This class is closed under taking direct sums, tensor products, duals, Heller shifts and direct summands,…
We study the Selmer group associated to a $p$-ordinary newform $f \in S_{2r}(\Gamma_0(N))$ over the anticyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension of an imaginary quadratic field $K/\mathbb{Q}$. Under certain assumptions, we prove that this Selmer…
We establish Ramanujan-style congruences modulo certain primes $\ell$ between an Eisenstein series of weight $k$, prime level $p$ and a cuspidal newform in the $\varepsilon$-eigenspace of the Atkin-Lehner operator inside the space of cusp…
We study the space of period polynomials associated with modular forms of integral weight for finite index subgroups of the modular group. For the modular group, this space is endowed with a pairing, corresponding to the Petersson inner…
Let $p$ denote a prime number. In this note, we focus on the modular Terwilliger algebras of association schemes defined in [3]. We define the primary module of a modular Terwilliger algebra of an association scheme and determine all its…
Let ${\bf G}$ be a connected reductive group over $\bar{\mathbb{F}}_q$, the algebraically closure of $\mathbb{F}_q$ (the finite field with $q=p^e$ elements), with the standard Frobenius map $F$. Let ${\bf B}$ be an $F$-stable Borel…
Let $A(1):=k[X]/(X^p)$ be the natural representation of the Witt algebra $W(1)$ over an algebraically closed field of prime characteristic $p>3$. In this note, we decompose the $W(1)$-module $A(1)\otimes A(1)$ into two invariant subspaces,…
Inspired by Besser's work on Coleman integration, we use $\nabla$-modules to define iterated line integrals over Laurent series fields of characteristic $p$ taking values in double cosets of unipotent $n\times n$ matrices with coefficients…
For a prime number p, we denote by K the cyclotomic Z_p-extension of a number field k. For a finite set S of prime numbers, we consider the S-ramified Iwasawa module which is the Galois group of the maximal abelian pro-p-extension of K…
The weights for a finite group G with respect to a prime number p where introduced by Jon Alperin, in order to formulate his celebrated conjecture affirming that that the number of G-conjugacy classes of weights of G coincides with the…
In this paper we outline the Hecke theory for Hermitian modular forms in the sense of Hel Braun for arbitrary class number of the attached imaginary-quadratic number field. The Hecke algebra turns out to be commutative. Its inert part has a…
We prove that the Mazur-Tate elements of an eigenform $f$ sit inside the Fitting ideals of the corresponding dual Selmer groups along the cyclotomic $\mathbb Z_p$-extension (up to scaling by a single constant). Our method begins with the…
In this paper, we construct a higher rank Euler system for the multiplicative group over a totally real field by using the Iwasawa main conjecture proved by Wiles. A key ingredient of the construction is to generalize the notion of the…
