Each Gr-functor of the type $(\varphi,f)$ of a Gr-category of the type $(\Pi,\C)$ has the obstruction be an element $\overline{k}\in H^3(\Pi,\C).$ When this obstruction vanishes, there exists a bijection between congruence classes of…

We extend the general framework of perturbative quantum field theory developped for the pure Yang-Mills model to gravity. First we present a variant of the elimination procedure of the anomalies in the second order of perturbation theory.…

In this paper I explore the structure of the fields of definition of Galois branched covers of the projective line over \bar Q. The first main result states that every mere cover model has a unique minimal field of definition where its…

Let k be a p-adic field. Some time ago, D. Harbater [9] proved that any finite group G may be realized as a regular Galois group over the rational function field in one variable k(t), namely there exists a finite field extension $F/k(t)$,…

Let $K$ be a local function field of characteristic $l$, $\mathbb{F}$ be a finite field over $\mathbb{F}_p$ where $l \ne p$, and $\overline{\rho}: G_K \rightarrow \text{GL}_n (\mathbb{F})$ be a continuous representation. We apply the…

We prove that the group-homological version of the generalized Goncharov invariant of finite-volume locally rank one symmetric spaces determines their generalized Neumann-Yang invariant, which is defined using ideal fundamental cycles.

When p divides the ordering of Galois group, the distribution of the Sylow p-subgroup of Cl(K) is closely related to the problem of counting fields with certain specifications. Moreover, different orderings of number fields affect the…

A classical theorem of Jordan asserts that if a group $G$ acts transitively on a finite set of size at least $2$, then $G$ contains a derangement (a fixed-point free element). Generalisations of Jordan's theorem have been studied…

We show that if a group $G$ has a finite normal subgroup $L$ such that $G/L$ is hypercentral, then the index of the hypercenter of $G$ is bounded by a function of the order of $L$. This completes recent results generalizing classical…

We suspect that the ``genus part'' of the class number of a number field K may be an obstruction for an ``easy proof'' of the classical p-rank epsilon-conjecture for p-class groups and, a fortiori, for a proof of the ``strong…

We develop a general approach to constructing a deformation that describes the mapping of any dynamical system with irreducible first-class constraints in the phase space into another dynamical system with first-class constraints. It is…

We give an interpretation of the hemisphere rigidity theorem of Hang-Wang in the framework of Gelfand problem. More precisely, Hang-Wang showed that for a metric $g$ conformal to the standard metric $g_0$ on $S^{n}_{+}$ with $R\geq n(n-1)$…

Both the Klein-Williams invariant $\ell_G(f)$ from \cite{KW2} and the generalized equivariant Lefschetz invariant $\lambda_G(f)$ from \cite{weber07} serve as complete obstructions to the fixed point problem in the equivariant setting. The…

\noindent The simultaneous partition problems are classical problems of the combinatorial geometry which have the natural flavor of the equivariant topology. The $k$-fan partition problems have attracted a lot of attention \cite{Aki2000},…

A cover of normal varieties is exceptional over a finite field if the map on points over infinitely many extensions of the field is one-one. A cover over a number field is exceptional if it is exceptional over infinitely many residue class…

We consider the problem of covariant gauge-fixing in the most general setting of the field-antifield formalism, where the action W and the gauge-fixing part X enter symmetrically and both satisfy the Quantum Master Equation. Analogous to…

This article is an expanded version of talks given by the authors in Oberwolfach, Bochum, and at the Fano Conference in Torino. Some new results (e. g. the material concerning flag varieties, Quot spaces over $\P^1$, and the generalized…

We provide an infinite family of quadratic number fields with everywhere unramified Galois extensions of Galois group $SL_2(7)$. To my knowledge, this is the first instance of infinitely many such realizations for a perfect group which is…

For every affine variety over a global function field, we show that the set of its points with coordinates in an arbitrary rank-one multiplicative subgroup of this function field is topologically dense in the set of its points with…

It is generally taken for granted that two-dimensional critical phenomena can be fully classified by the well known two-dimensional (rational) conformal quantum field theories (CQFTs). In particular it is believed that in models with a…
