In a 2013 article, Eike Lau constructed a canonical morphism from the stack of $n$-truncated Barsotti-Tate groups over $F_p$ to the stack of $n$-truncated displays. He also proved that this morphism is a gerbe banded by a commutative group…
We use the newly developed stacky prismatic technology of Drinfeld and Bhatt-Lurie to give a uniform, group-theoretic construction of smooth stacks $\mathrm{BT}^{G,\mu}_{n}$ attached to a smooth affine group scheme $G$ over $\mathbb{Z}_p$…
Let G be a smooth group scheme over $F_p$ equipped with a $G_m$-action such that all weights of $G_m$ on the Lie algebra of G are not greater than 1. Let $Disp_n^G$ be Eike Lau's stack of n-truncated G-displays (this is an algebraic stack…
We prove that smooth, separated Deligne--Mumford stacks in mixed characteristic with quasi-projective coarse moduli space are global quotient stacks and satisfy the resolution property. This builds on work of Kresch and Vistoli and of…
Let $(P, Y)$ be a bundle gerbe over a fibre bundle $Y \to M$. We show that if $M$ is simply-connected and the fibres of $Y \to M$ are connected and finite-dimensional then the Dixmier-Douady class of $(P, Y)$ is torsion. This corrects and…
We first recall Grothendieck's notion of n-truncated Barsotti-Tate group. Such groups form an algebraic stack over the integers. The problem is to give an illuminating description of its reductions modulo powers of p. A related problem is…
We show that to every p-divisible group over a p-adic ring one can associate a display by crystalline Dieudonne theory. For an appropriate notion of truncated displays, this induces a functor from truncated Barsotti-Tate groups to truncated…
Many bundle gerbes constructed in practice are either infinite-dimensional, or finite-dimensional but built using submersions that are far from being fibre bundles. Murray and Stevenson proved that gerbes on simply-connected manifolds,…
We consider the question of how geometric structures of a Deligne-Mumford stack affect its Gromov-Witten invariants. The two geometric structures studied here are {\em gerbes} and {\em root constructions}. In both cases, we explain…
In this PhD thesis, we have studied certain geometric structures over Lie groupoids and differentiable stacks. This thesis is based on the work [arXiv:2103.04560, arXiv:2012.08447, arXiv:2012.08442, arXiv:1907.00375]. In [arXiv:1907.00375],…
For a gerbe $\Y$ over a smooth proper Deligne-Mumford stack $\B$ banded by a finite group $G$, we prove a structure result on the Gromov-Witten theory of $\Y$, expressing Gromov-Witten invariants of $\Y$ in terms of Gromov-Witten invariants…
We introduce and study the derived moduli stack $\mathrm{Symp}(X,n)$ of $n$-shifted symplectic structures on a given derived stack $X$, as introduced by [PTVV] (IHES Vol. 117, 2013). In particular, under reasonable assumptions on $X$, we…
The Umbral Moonshine Conjectures assert that there are infinite-dimensional graded modules, for prescribed finite groups, whose McKay-Thompson series are certain distinguished mock modular forms. Gannon has proved this for the special case…
Arinkin and Gaitsgory defined a category of tempered D-modules on Bun_G that is conjecturally equivalent to the category of quasi-coherent (not ind-coherent!) sheaves on LocSys_{\check{G}}. However, their definition depends on the auxiliary…
Using the ring space of sheared Witt vectors, we define certain ring stacks. We suggest several models for the ring stacks. Motivation: there is a conjectural description of the stack of n-truncated Barsotti-Tate groups and its Shimurian…
Let X be a smooth elliptic fibration over a smooth base B. Under mild assumptions, we establish a Fourier-Mukai equivalence between the derived categories of two objects, each of which is an O^* gerbe over a genus one fibration which is a…
Elliptic sheaves (which are related to Drinfeld modules) were introduced by Drinfeld and further studied by Laumon--Rapoport--Stuhler and others. They can be viewed as function field analogues of elliptic curves and hence are objects "of…
Bundle gerbes are simple examples of higher geometric structures that show their utility in dealing with topological subtleties of physical theories. I review a recent construction of torsion topological invariants for condensed matter…
Let $(G,X)$ be a PEL-Shimura datum of type AC in Kottwitz's classification. Assume $G_{\mathbf{Q}_p}$ is unramified. We show that the good reduction locus of the infinite $p$-level Shimura variety attached to this datum, considered as a…
We construct shifted symplectic derived enhancements on rigidified moduli spaces of sheaves on Calabi-Yau varieties of dimension at least two. More generally, we prove that any $B\mathbb{G}_m$-action on a non-positively-shifted symplectic…
