The main result of this paper is a characterization of the abelian varieties $B/K$ defined over Galois number fields with the property that the zeta function $L(B/K;s)$ is equivalent to the product of zeta functions of non-CM newforms for…
Given a fibration over the circle, we relate the eigenspace decomposition of the algebraic monodromy, the homological finiteness properties of the fiber, and the formality properties of the total space. In the process, we prove a more…
In this note we propose the generalization of the notion of a holomorphic contact structure on a manifold (smooth variety) to varieties with rational singularities and prove basic properties of such objects. Natural examples of singular…
Using constructions of Voisin, we exhibit a smooth projective variety defined over a number field k and two complex embeddings of k, such that the two complex manifolds induced by these embeddings have non isomorphic cohomology algebras…
Let $(M,\omega)$ be a symplectic manifold endowed with a agrangian foliation ${\cal L}$, it has been shown by Weinstein [16] hat the symplectic structure of $M$ defines on each leaf of ${\cal L}$, connection which curvature and torsion…
In this article, we define the l-adic homology for a morphism of schemes satisfying certain finiteness conditions. This homology has these functors similar to the Chow groups: proper push-forward, flat pull-back, base change, cap-product,…
Let $X$ be a simply connected path connected topological space which is formal in the sense of rational homotopy theory. Let $Y=X\cup_\alpha\mathbb{D}^{n}$ where $\alpha:\mathbb{S}^{n-1}\to X$ is a non-torsion element. Then we obtain a…
In this paper we study some properties of almost abelian solvmanifolds using minimal models associated to a fibration. In particular we state a necessary and sufficient condition to formality and a method for finding symplectic strucures of…
Stratifications and iterative differential equations are analogues in positive characteristic of complex linear differential equations. There are few explicit examples of stratifications. The main goal of this paper is to construct…
Our aim here is to investigate the holomorphic geometric structures on compact complex manifolds which may not be K\"ahler. We prove that holomorphic geometric structures of affine type on compact Calabi-Yau manifolds with polystable…
We construct $p$-adic $L$-functions associated with $p$-refined cohomological cuspidal Hilbert modular forms over any totally real field under a mild hypothesis. Our construction is canonical, varies naturally in $p$-adic families, and does…
We introduce the concept of s-formal minimal model as an extension of formality. We prove that any orientable compact manifold M, of dimension 2n or (2n-1), is formal if and only if M is (n-1)-formal. The formality and the hard Lefschetz…
Let M be a closed (n-1)-connected 2n-dimensional smooth manifold with n > 2. In terms of the system of invariants for such manifolds introduced by Wall, we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for M to admit an almost complex…
This is an expository article on the theory of formal group laws in homotopy theory, with the goal of leading to the connection with higher-dimensional abelian varieties and automorphic forms. These are roughly based on a talk at the…
It is a prominent conjecture (relating Riemannian geometry and algebraic topology) that all simply-connected compact manifolds of special holonomy should be formal spaces, i.e., their rational homotopy type should be derivable from their…
We use the non-proper Morse theory of Palais-Smale to investigate the topology of smooth closed subvarieties of complex semi-abelian varieties, and that of their infinite cyclic covers. As main applications, we obtain the finite generation…
We give a sufficient condition for a metric (homology) manifold to be locally bi-Lipschitz equivalent to an open subset in $\rn$. The condition is a Sobolev condition for a measurable coframe of flat 1-forms. In combination with an earlier…
We provide a complete geometric solution to the problem of differentiating simplicial manifolds, extending classical Lie theory and complementing existing homotopical and formal approaches within a unifying framework. First, we establish a…
For a smooth projective geometrically uniruled threefold defined over a perfect field we show that there exists a canonical abelian variety over the field, namely the second algebraic representative, whose rational Tate modules model…
In this paper, we introduce a necessary condition for the existence of characteristic zero liftings of certain smooth, proper varieties in positive characteristic, using etale homotopy theory and Wall's finiteness obstruction. For a variety…
