The generalization of the "custodial symmetry" mechanism which leads to the natural (without fine tuning) explanation of the doublet-triplet hierarchy is suggested in the frames of extended $SU(N\geq 8)$ SUSY GUTs. It is shown also that…
The aim of the present paper is to give evidence, largely numerical, in support of the non-commutative main conjecture of Iwasawa theory for the motive of a primitive modular form of weight k>2 over the Galois extension of Q obtained by…
Neveu-Schwarz ghost slivers in pictures zero and minus one are constructed. In particular, using algebraic methods $\beta$, $\gamma$ ghost sliver in the -1 picture is obtained. The algebraic method consists in solving a projector equation…
We report on observations we made on computational data that suggest a generalization of Maeda's conjecture regarding the number of Galois orbits of newforms of level $N = 1$, to higher levels. They also suggest a possible formula for this…
The aim of this paper is to study all the natural first steps of the minimal model program for the moduli space of stable pointed curves. We prove that they admit a modular interpretation and we study their geometric properties. As a…
The paper introduces Slope Conjecture which relates the degree of the Jones polynomial of a knot and its parallels with the slopes of incompressible surfaces in the knot complement. More precisely, we introduce two knot invariants, the…
We define the notion of a $G$-structure for elliptic curves, where $G$ is a finite 2-generated group. When $G$ is abelian, a $G$-structure is the same as a classical congruence level structure. There is a natural action of…
This paper is a natural continuation of a joint paper with Bajpai, Harder and Moya Giusti \cite{BHHM}, even though it began as an answer to Goncharov's question. It that paper, we had complete description for all representations except for…
The arithmetic of Hilbert modular forms has been extensively studied under the assumption that the forms concerned are "paritious" -- all the components of the weight are congruent modulo 2. In contrast, non-paritious Hilbert modular forms…
The Slope Conjecture relates the degree of the colored Jones polynomial of a knot to boundary slopes of incompressible surfaces. Our aim is to prove the Slope Conjecture for Montesinos knots, and to match parameters of a state-formula for…
The recently introduced Galois symmetries of RCFT are generalized, for the WZW case, to `quasi-Galois symmetries'. These symmetries can be used to derive a large number of equalities and sum rules for entries of the modular matrix S,…
We develop an accelerated gradient descent algorithm on the Grassmann manifold to compute the subspace spanned by a number of leading eigenvectors of a symmetric positive semi-definite matrix. This has a constant cost per iteration and a…
Sums of the singular series constants that appear in the Hardy--Littlewood $k$-tuples conjectures have long been studied in connection to the distribution of primes. We study constrained sums of singular series, where the sum is taken over…
We develop local cohomology techniques to study the finite slope part of the coherent cohomology of Shimura varieties. The local cohomology groups we consider are a generalization of overconvergent modular forms, and they are defined by…
The geometry of the moduli space of stable spin curves is studied, with emphasis on its combinatorial properties. In this context, the standard graph theoretic framework is not just a book-keeping device: some purely combinatorial results…
We give an explicit formula for the Galois descent expressing multiple $t$-values of maximal height in terms of classical multiple zeta values, making precise Murakami's earlier motivic result. Our results rely on the theory of iterated…
We prove a strengthening of Brauer's height zero conjecture for principal 2-blocks with Galois automorphisms. This requires a new extension of the It\^o--Michler theorem for the prime~2, again with Galois automorphisms. We close, this time…
We study the weight part of (a generalisation of) Serre's conjecture for mod l Galois representations associated to automorphic representations on unitary groups of rank n for odd primes l. Given a modular Galois representation, we use…
We study countably monotone and Markov interval maps. We establish sufficient conditions for uniqueness of a conjugate map of constant slope. We explain how global window perturbation can be used to generate a large class of maps satisfying…
In this article we study the behavior of inertia groups for modular Galois mod l^n representations and in some cases we give a generalization of Ribet's lowering the level result
