We continue our study of particular instances of the Affine Sieve, producing levels of distribution beyond those attainable from expansion alone. Motivated by McMullen's Arithmetic Chaos Conjecture regarding low-lying closed geodesics on…
In our previous publications we have introduced analogs of partial derivatives on the algebras U(gl(N)). In the present paper we compare two methods of introducing these analogs: via the so-called quantum doubles and by means of a…
We give a commutative algebra viewpoint on Andrews recursive formula for the partitions appearing in "Gordon's identities", which are a generalization of Rogers-Ramanujan identities. Using this approach and differential ideals we conjecture…
Let $F$ be a nonarchimedean local field, let $E$ be a Galois quadratic extension of $F$ and let $G$ be a quasisplit group defined over $F$; a conjecture by Dipendra Prasad states that the Steinberg representation of $G(E)$ is then…
Let $G$ denote the unramified quasi-split unitary group $\mathbb{U}(1,1)(F)$ over a $p$-adic field $F$ with residual characteristic $p \neq 2$. In this paper, we first construct a large family of irreducible representations of the maximal…
We extend the geometric side of Arthur's non-invariant trace formula for a reductive group $G$ defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ continuously to a natural space $\mathcal{C}(G(\mathbb{A}^1))$ of test functions which are not necessarily compactly…
We realize the fundamental representations of quantum algebras via the supersymmetric Higgs mechanism in gauge theories with 8 supercharges on an $\Omega$-background. We test our proposal for quantum affine algebras, by probing the Higgs…
Let $L/K$ be a finite Galois extension of local fields. The Hasse-Arf theorem says that if Gal$(L/K)$ is abelian then the upper ramification breaks of $L/K$ must be integers. We prove the following converse to the Hasse-Arf theorem: Let $G$…
We develop a new approach to construction of numerical invariants for ramified coverings of algebraic surfaces of prime characteristic. Let A be a two-dimensional regular local ring of prime characteristic p with algebraically closed…
Let p be an odd prime, K a finite extension of Q_p, G=Gal(\bar K/K) the Galois group and e=e(K/Q_p) the ramification index. Suppose T is a p^n torsion representation such that T is isomorphic to a quotient of two G-stable Z_p-lattices in a…
We establish a variety of extensions to the Erdos-Rado Theorem, particularly involving ordinal numbers, and always involving ordinary partition relations. Most of the results can be regarded as consequences of the Ramification Principle,…
We formulate and analyze several finiteness conjectures for linear algebraic groups over higher-dimensional fields. In fact, we prove all of these conjectures for algebraic tori as well as in some other situations. This work relies in an…
We show that Caratheodory's conjecture, on umbilical points of closed convex surfaces, may be reformulated in terms of the existence of at least one umbilic in the graphs of functions f: R^2-->R whose gradient decays uniformly faster than…
We formulate a number of related generalisations of the weight part of Serre's conjecture to the case of GL(n) over an arbitrary number field, motivated by the formalism of the Breuil-M\'ezard conjecture. We give evidence for these…
We give an explicit construction of test vectors for $T$-equivariant linear functionals on representations $\Pi$ of $GL_2$ of a $p$-adic field $F$, where $T$ is a non-split torus. Of particular interest is the case when both the…
We study the minimal number of ramified primes in Galois extensions of rational function fields over finite fields with prescribed finite Galois group. In particular, we obtain a general conjecture in analogy with the well studied case of…
This article is devoted to studying the ramification of Galois torsors and of $\ell$-adic sheaves in characteristic $p>0$ (with $\ell\not=p$). Let $k$ be a perfect field of characteristic $p>0$, $X$ be a smooth, separated and quasi-compact…
Let $K/F$ be a finite extension of number fields of degree $n \geq 2$. We establish effective field-uniform unconditional upper bounds for the least norm of a prime ideal of $F$ which is degree 1 over $\mathbb{Q}$ and does not ramify or…
This is the third in a series of articles devoted to showing that a typical covering map of large degree to a fixed, regular graph has its new adjacency eigenvalues within the bound conjectured by Alon for random regular graphs. In this…
Let K be a finite extension of Q_p and let L/K be a totally ramified (Z/pZ)^2-extension which has a single ramification break b. Byott and Elder defined a "refined ramification break" b_* for L/K. In this paper we prove that if p>2 and the…
