The aim of this paper is to explain how to get a complex of smooth representations out of the dual vector space to a smooth representation of a p-adic Lie group, in natural characteristic. The construction does not depend on any…
We state a conjecture, local Langlands in families, connecting the centre of the category of smooth representations on $\mathbb{Z}[\sqrt{q}^{-1}]$-modules of a quasi-split $p$-adic group $\mathrm{G}$ (where $q$ is the cardinality of the…
We introduce a Grothendieck ring of higher Artin stacks generalizing the Grothendieck ring of algebraic varieties. We show that this ring is not trivial by noticing that it factors the invariant "number of rational points over a finite…
The mod p cohomology of a space comes with an action of the Steenrod Algebra. L. Schwartz [A propos de la conjecture de non realisation due a N. Kuhn, Invent. Math. 134, No 1, (1998) 211--227] proved a conjecture due to N. Kuhn [On…
The result of this paper is the determination of the cohomology of Artin groups of type A_n, B_n and \tilde{A}_{n} with non-trivial local coefficients. The main result is an explicit computation of the cohomology of the Artin group of type…
We propose the systematic study of presentations that can be generalised over a continuous open group monomorphism. Presentations with this property can turn well-known presentations such as those for as orientable surface groups, Artin…
In this paper we consider a general way of constructing profinite struc- tures based on a given framework - a countable family of objects and a countable family of recognisers (e.g. formulas). The main theorem states: A subset of a family…
We give very flexible, concrete constructions of discrete and faithful epresentations of right-angled Artin groups into higher-rank Lie groups. Using the geometry of the associated symmetric spaces and the combinatorics of the groups, we…
The paper describes the algebraic structure of the graded algebra of differentially homogeneous polynomials of fixed finite order. We show that it is a finitely generated algebra, and we exhibit a minimal set of generators. Along the way,…
Geometry of buildings is used to prove some homological properties of the category of smooth representations of a reductive p-adic group (Kazhdan's "pairing conjecture", Bernstein's description of homological duality in terms of…
We prove a purely topological characterization of the Moufang property for disconnected compact polygons in terms of convergence groups. As a consequence, we recover the fact that a locally finite thick affine building of rank 3 is a…
This article contains a slightly expanded version of the lectures given by the author at the summer school "Algebraic stacks and related topics" in Mainz, Germany from August 31 to September 4, 2015. The content of these lectures is purely…
We show an equivalence of categories, over general $p$-adic bases, between finite locally $p^n$-torsion commutative group schemes and $\Int/p^n\Int$-modules in perfect $F$-gauges of Tor amplitude $[-1,0]$ with Hodge-Tate weights $0,1$. By…
The subgroup lattice of a group is a great source of information about the structure of the group itself. The aim of this paper is to use a similar tool for studying profinite groups. In more detail, we study the lattices of closed or open…
We give necessary conditions for a category fibred in pseudo-abelian additive categories over the classifying topos of a profinite group to be a stack; these conditions are sufficient when the coefficients are $\mathbf{Q}$-linear. This…
We prove that, under mild assumptions, a lattice in a product of semi-simple Lie group and a totally disconnected locally compact group is, in a certain sense, arithmetic. We do not assume the lattice to be finitely generated or the ambient…
We first give simplified and corrected accounts of some results in \cite{PiRCP} on compactifications of pseudofinite groups. For instance, we use a classical theorem of Turing \cite{Turing} to give a simplified proof that any definable…
We prove that in every finitely generated profinite group, every subgroup of finite index is open; this implies that the topology on such groups is determined by the algebraic structure. This is deduced from the main result about finite…
In this article, we prove the existence of rigid analytic families of $G$-stable lattices with locally constant reductions inside families of representations of a topologically compact group $G$, extending a result of Hellman obtained in…
We prove that any geometrically irreducible $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}_p$-local system on a smooth algebraic variety over a $p$-adic field $K$ becomes de Rham after a twist by a character of the Galois group of $K$. In particular, for any…
