The Fundamental Theorem of Algebra can be thought of as a statement about the real numbers as a space, considered as an algebraic set over the real numbers as a field. This paper introduces what it means for an algebraic set or affine…
This thesis is devoted to the study of the interactions existing between the algebraic structure of locally compact groups and the properties of their continuous unitary representations, with a special emphasis on the Type I groups. On the…
Real algebraic geometry is the study of semi-algebraic sets, subsets of $\R^k$ defined by Boolean combinations of polynomial equalities and inequalities. The focus of this thesis is to study quantitative results in real algebraic geometry,…
Similarly to the global case, the local structure of a holomorphic subvariety at a given point is described by its local irreducible decomposition. Following the paradigm of numerical algebraic geometry, an algebraic subvariety at a point…
Among all affine, flat, finitely presented group schemes, we focus on those that are pure, this includes all groups which are extensions of a finite locally free group by a group with connected fibres. We prove that over an arbitrary base…
We introduce and discuss a definition of approximation of a topological algebraic system $A$ by finite algebraic systems of some class $\K$. For the case of a discrete algebraic system this definition is equivalent to the well-known…
Let $E$ be a number field and $X$ a smooth geometrically connected variety defined over a characteristic $p$ finite field. Given an $n$-dimensional pure $E$-compatible system of semisimple $\lambda$-adic representations of the \'etale…
We study $\mathbb Z$-graded modules of nonzero level with arbitrary weight multiplicities over Heisenberg Lie algebras and the associated generalized loop modules over affine Kac-Moody Lie algebras. We construct new families of such…
Under mild hypotheses, we prove that if F is a totally real field, k is the algebraic closure of the finite field with l elements and r : G_F --> GL_2(k) is irreducible and modular, then there is a finite solvable totally real extension…
The irreducible integrable representations with finite-dimensional weight spaces of toroidal Lie algebras on which the center acts non-trivially were classified by S.Eswara Rao. In this paper we give a compact proof of the results that lead…
Given an algorithm of resolution of singularities satisfying certain conditions (``good algorithms''), natural notions of simultaneous algorithmic resolution, or equiresolution, for families of embedded schemes (parametrized by a reduced…
We study geometric properties of certain obstructed equisingular families of projective hypersurfaces with emphasis on smoothness, reducibility, being reduced, and having expected dimension. In the case of minimal obstructness, we give a…
We consider some algebraic aspects of the dynamics of an automorphism on a family of polarized abelian varieties parameterized by the complex unit disk. When the action on the cohomology of the generic fiber has no cyclotomic factor, we…
Fix any algebraic extension $\mathbb K$ of the field $\mathbb Q$ of rationals. In this article we study exponential sets $V\subset \mathbb R^n$. Such sets are described by the vanishing of so called exponential polynomials, i.e.,…
In this article, we establish results concerning the cohomology of Zariski dense subgroups of solvable linear algebraic groups. We show that for an irreducible solvable $\mathbb{Q}$-defined linear algebraic group $\mathbf{G}$, there exists…
Let phi: P^1 --> P^1 be a rational map defined over a field K. We construct the moduli space M_d(N) parameterizing conjugacy classes of degree-d maps with a point of formal period N and present an algebraic proof that M_2(N) is…
In some recent work, Lusztig outlined a generalisation of the construction of Deligne and Lusztig to reductive groups over finite rings coming from the ring of integers in a local field, modulo some power of the maximal ideal. Lusztig…
Given a finitely generated group G, the set Hom(G,SL_2 C) inherits the structure of an algebraic variety R(G)called the "representation variety" of G. This algebraic variety is an invariant of G. Let G_{pt}=< a, b; a^p= b^t>, where p, t are…
An embedding theorem for algebraic systems is presented, basing on a certain old ultrafilter construction. As an application, we outline alternative proofs of some results from the theory of PI algebras, and establish some properties of…
An extension of algebras is a homomorphism of algebras preserving identities. We use extensions of algebras to study the finitistic dimension conjecture over Artin algebras. Let $f: B \to A$ be an extension of Artin algebras. We denote by…
