The higher Bruhat orders are partial orders that generalize the weak order on the symmetric group $S_n$, and the second higher Bruhat order is a poset on commutation classes of reduced words for the longest element in $S_n$, where covering…

We present an approach of calculating the group of braided autoequivalences of the category of representations of the Drinfeld double of a finite dimensional Hopf algebra $H$ and thus the Brauer-Picard group of $H$-$\mathrm{mod}$. We…

Let F be a global field, and let S be a finite set of places of F containing all archimedean places. Consider the product X of the symmetric spaces and Bruhat-Tits buildings for PGL_d of the completions of F at archimedean and…

We define and study a simplicial complex which is a homogeneous space for the group $PGL(2, K)$ over a two-dimensional local field $K$. The complex is a generalization of the tree studied by F. Bruhat, J. Tits, J.-P. Serre and P. Cartier in…

The paper provides an extension, to fractional order Sobolev spaces, of the classical result of Murat and Brezis which states that the positive cone of elements in $H^{-1}(\Omega)$ compactly embeds in $W^{-1,q}(\Omega)$, for every $q < 2$…

Let $W$ be a finite reflection group. For a given $w \in W$, the following assertion may or may not be satisfied: (*) The principal Bruhat order ideal of $w$ contains as many elements as there are regions in the inversion hyperplane…

Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a connected reductive almost simple group over the Witt ring $W(\mathbb{F})$ for $\mathbb{F}$ a finite field of characteristic $p$. Let $R$ and $R'$ be complete noetherian local $W(\mathbb{F})$ -algebras with residue…

We establish new general etale versions of theorems of Barth and Sommese. Respectively, we compute the lower etale cohomology of closed subvarieties of $P^N$ of small codimensions and of their preimages with respect to proper morphisms…

In this article, we propose a boundedness conjecture for the regional fundamental group of klt singularities. We prove that this boundedness conjecture, the Zariski closedness of the diminished base locus of $K_X$, and an upper bound for…

In this paper, we introduce a quantum version of the wonderful compactification of a group as a certain noncommutative projective scheme. Our approach stems from the fact that the wonderful compactification encodes the asymptotics of matrix…

We show that the partial compactification of a stratum of Abelian differentials previously considered by Mirzakhani and Wright is not an algebraic variety. Despite this, we use a combination of algebro-geometric and other methods to provide…

In this paper, we construct good toroidal and minimal compactifications in the sense of Lan-Stroh for integral models of abelian-type Shimura varieties. We start with finding suitable types of cusp labels and cone decompositions which are…

The Bruhat order on a Coxeter group is often described by examining subexpressions of a reduced expression. We prove that an analogous description applies to the Bruhat order on double cosets. This establishes the compatibility of the…

We describe a new approach for classifying conjugacy classes of elementary abelian subgroups in simple algebraic groups over an algebraically closed field, and understanding the normaliser and centraliser structure of these. For toral…

We study the structure of generalized Baumslag-Solitar groups from the point of view of their (usually non-unique) splittings as fundamental groups of graphs of infinite cyclic groups. We find and characterize certain decompositions of…
