We prove the blockwise Navarro Alperin weight conjecture for double covers of symmetric and alternating groups.

In 1959, Klee proved that a convex body $K$ is a polyhedron if and only if all of its projections are polygons. In this paper, a new proof of this theorem is given for convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^3$.

We prove that the universal covering space of a complex projective manifold is holomorphically convex provided its fundamental group is linear.

In this paper we present a detailed proof of an important result of algebraic logic: namely that the free commutative Kleene algebra is the space of semilinear sets. The first proof of this result was proposed by Redko in 1964, and…

Let X be a smooth, connected, projective variety over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. In "Flat vector bundles and the fundamental group in non-zero characteristics" (Ann. Scuola Norm. Sup. Pisa Cl. Sci. (4) 2…

Given a family of smooth complex projective varieties, the Hodge conjecture predicts the algebraicity of the locus of Hodge classes. This was proven unconditionnally by Cattani, Deligne and Kaplan in 1995. In a similar way, conjectures on…

A remarkable result of Peter O'Sullivan asserts that the algebra epimorphism from the rational Chow ring of an abelian variety to its rational Chow ring modulo numerical equivalence admits a (canonical) section. Motivated by Beauville's…

The ${\ell}^1$-convolution algebra of a semilattice is known to have trivial cohom ology in degrees 1,2 and 3 whenever the coefficient bimodule is symmetric. We ex tend this result to all cohomology groups of degree $\geq 1$ with symmetric…

We give a simple sufficient condition for a spun-normal surface in an ideal triangulation to be incompressible, namely that it is a vertex surface with non-empty boundary which has a quadrilateral in each tetrahedron. While this condition…

As a follow-up to work done in [7], some new insights to the structure of the socle of a semisimple Banach algebra is obtained. In particular, it is shown that the socle is isomorphic as an algebra to the direct sum of tensor products of…

In this short note, we show that the assumption "convex" in Theorem 7 of Brendle-Eichmair's paper \cite{BE} is unnecessary.

We prove that no separable Banach algebra is universal for homomorphic embeddings of all separable Banach algebras, whether embeddings are merely bounded or required to be contractive. The same holds in the commutative category. The proof…

We show how the notion of the transcendence degree of a zero-cycle on a smooth projective variety X is related to the structure of the motive M(X). This can be of particular interest in the context of Bloch's conjecture, especially for…

A fundamental theorem of Barsotti and Chevalley states that every smooth algebraic group over a perfect field is an extension of an abelian variety by a smooth affine algebraic group. In 1956 Rosenlicht gave a short proof of the theorem. In…

Let X be a smooth projective variety over a field k. For k separably closed, we prove that the subgroup of unramified classes in the Milnor K-group $K^M_i(k(X))$ of the function field of X is contained in the subgroup of n-divisible…

Let $A$ be a Banach algebra, not necessarily unital, and let $B$ be a closed subalgebra of $A$. We establish a connection between the Banach cyclic cohomology group $ {\cal{HC}}^n(A)$ of $A$ and the Banach $B$-relative cyclic cohomology…

We prove that any class $VII$ surface with $b_2=1$ has curves. This implies the "Global Spherical Shell conjecture" in the case $b_2=1$: Any minimal class $VII$ surface with $b_2=1$ admits a global spherical shell, hence it is isomorphic to…

This is the text of my Bourbaki seminar on the proof of the surface subgroup conjecture by Jeremy Kahn and Vladimir Markovic.

We prove that any surface with q=p_g=0 embedded by a sufficiently large linear system admits a rank 2 Ulrich bundle. In particular every Enriques surface admits a rank 2 Ulrich bundle.

We prove that the zero locus of an admissible normal function over an algebraic parameter space S is algebraic in the case where S is a curve.
