Strongly (respectively strictly) A1-invariant sheaves are foundational for motivic homotopy theory over fields. They are sheaves of (abelian) groups on the Nisnevich site of smooth varieties over a field k, with the property that their…

In this paper we study non-abelian extensions of a Lie group $G$ modeled on a locally convex space by a Lie group $N$. The equivalence classes of such extension are grouped into those corresponding to a class of so-called smooth outer…

Using the $U_q^Hsl_2$ non-semisimple invariants of 3-manifolds at odd roots of unity, we construct maps on the Kauffman bracket skein module at roots of unity of order twice an odd number, having any possible abelian non central character…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety over a global function field $K$ of characteristic $p$. We study the $\mu$-invariant appearing in the Iwasawa theory of $A$ over the unramified $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension of $K$. Ulmer suggests that this…

Chevalley's theorem states that every smooth connected algebraic group over a perfect field is an extension of an abelian variety by a smooth connected affine group. That fails when the base field is not perfect. We define a pseudo-abelian…

Let J be an abelian surface with a generic ample line bundle O(1). For n>0, the moduli space M(2, 0, 2n) of O(1)-semistable sheaves F of rank 2 with Chern classes c_1(F) = 0, c_2(F) = 2n is a singular projective variety, endowed with a…

In this note, we show that the units in Grothendieck-Witt rings extend to an unramified strictly A^1-invariant sheaf of abelian groups on the category of smooth schemes. This implies that there is an A^1-local classifying space of spherical…

In this paper we consider ideal sheaves associated to the singular loci of a divisor in a linear system $|L|$ of an ample line bundle on a complex abelian variety. We prove an effective result on their (continuous) global generation, after…

Let $q$ be a prime with $q \equiv 7 \mod 8$, and let $K=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-q})$. Then $2$ splits in $K$, and we write $\mathfrak{p}$ for either of the primes $K$ above $2$. Let $K_\infty$ be the unique $\mathbb{Z}_2$-extension of $K$…

If $M$ is an $R$-module, we study the submodules $K\leq M$ with the property that $K$ is invariant with respect to all monomorphisms $K\rightarrow M$. Such submodules are called \textsl{strictly invariant}. For the case of $%…

For a complex algebraic variety $X$, we show that triviality of the sheaf cohomology group $H^0(X,\mathcal{H}^3)$ occurring on the second page of the Bloch-Ogus spectral sequence follows from a condition on the integral Chow group $CH^2X$…

Let $F$ be a global function field of characteristic $p>0$ and $A/F$ an abelian variety. Let $K/F$ be an $\l$-adic Lie extension ($\l\neq p$) unramified outside a finite set of primes $S$ and such that $\Gal(K/F)$ has no elements of order…

We show that (with one possible exception) there exist strongly dense free subgroups in any semisimple algebraic group over a large enough field. These are nonabelian free subgroups all of whose subgroups are either cyclic or Zariski dense.…

We classify principal bundles over anti-affine schemes with affine and commutative structural group. We show that this yields the classification of quasi-abelian varieties over a field k (i.e., group k-schemes with no non constant global…

Almost 20 years ago, the first and fourth authors found examples of SL(2,R)-invariant subbundles of Hodge bundles over Teichm\"uller curves having maximally degenerate Lyapunov spectrum. For these same surfaces, we show that a natural…

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic $0$, let $S$ be a smooth, geometrically connected variety over $k$, with generic point $\eta$, and $f:\mathbb{X}\rightarrow S$ a morphism separated and of finite type. Fix a prime $\ell$. Let…

We compute extension sheaves of abelian schemes and of the additive group by the multiplicative group in the fppf topology. Our main results include a generalized and streamlined proof of the Barsotti--Weil formula, the vanishing of…

Faltings proved that there are finitely many abelian varieties of genus $g$ over a number field $K$, with good reduction outside a finite set of primes $S$. Fixing one of these abelian varieties $A$, we prove that there are finitely many…
