We show that every affine or projective algebraic variety defined over the field of real or complex numbers is homeomorphic to a variety defined over the field of algebraic numbers. We construct such a homeomorphism by choosing a small…
We give a construction of an affine Hecke algebra associated to any Coxeter group acting on an abelian variety by reflections; in the case of an affine Weyl group, the result is an elliptic analogue of the usual double affine Hecke algebra.…
Automorphisms of finite order and real forms of "smooth" affine Kac-Moody algebras are studied, i.e. of 2-dimensional extensions of the algebra of smooth loops in a simple Lie algebra. It is shown that they can be parametrized by certain…
Let $f$ be a Hochschild $2$-cocycle and let $A_f$ be an infinitesimal deformation of an associative finite dimensional algebra $A$ over an algebraically closed field $\Bbbk$. We investigate the algebra structure of the Ext-algebra of $A_f$…
We prove a characterization of profinite algebras, i.e., topological algebras that are isomorphic to a projective limit of finite discrete algebras. In general profiniteness concerns both the topological and algebraic characteristics of a…
Apart from global topological problems an affine homogeneous space is locally described by its curvature, its torsion and a slightly less tangible object called its connection in a given base point. Using this description of the local…
In arXiv:math/0606241v2 M. Kontsevich and Y. Soibelman argue that the category of noncommutative (thin) schemes is equivalent to the category of coalgebras. We propose that under this correspondence the affine scheme of a k-algebra A is the…
Periods of parallel exterior forms define natural coordinates on the deformation space of complete affine structures on the two-torus. These coordinates define a differentiable structure on this deformation space, under which it is…
I extend the framework of rigid analytic geometry to the setting of algebraic geometry relative to monoids, and study the associated notions of separated, proper, and overconvergent morphisms. The category of affine manifolds embeds as a…
The interaction of a Lie algebra $\LL,$ having a weight space decomposition with respect to a nonzero toral subalgebra, with its corresponding root system forms a powerful tool in the study of the structure of $\LL.$ This, in particular,…
In this paper, we give new criteria for affineness of a variety defined over $\Bbb{C}$. Our main result is that an irreducible algebraic variety $Y$ (may be singular) of dimension $d$ ($d\geq 1$) defined over $\Bbb{C}$ is an affine variety…
M. Kapranov introduced and studied in math.AG/9802041 the noncommutative formal structure of a smooth affine variety. In this note we show that his construction is a special case of microlocalization and extend it in a functorial way to…
In this paper, we give a characterization for any abelian subgroup G of a lie group of diffeomorphisms maps of C^n, having a somewhere dense orbit G(x), x in C^n: G(x) is somewhere dense in C^n if and only if there are f_{1},....,f_{2n+1 in…
In this note we study logarithmic transformations in the sense of differential topology on two fibers of the Hopf surface. It is known that such transformations are susceptible to yield exotic smooth structures on four-manifolds. We will…
In this paper which is the first of a series of papers on smooth structures, the concepts of C-structures and smooth structures are introduced and studied. The notion of smooth structure on semi-integral domains is given. It is shown that…
We investigate the uniqueness of so-called exotic structures on certain exact symplectic manifolds by looking at how their symplectic properties change under small nonexact deformations of the symplectic form. This allows us to distinguish…
A root systems in Carroll spaces with degenerate metric are defined. It is shown that their Cartan matrices and reflection groups are affine. With the help of the geometric consideration the root system structure of affine algebras is…
This is a survey on the finite basis problem for varieties of algebraic systems. Our exposition is in two directions: (i) We give numerous examples of varieties which are not finitely based. (ii) We give examples of important varieties with…
Several results on presenting an affine algebraic group variety as a product of algebraic varieties are obtained.
We investigate the structure of the `exotic nilcone' of $F_4$ which is defined by exploiting certain characteristic two phenomena. We show that there are finitely many orbits on this nilcone and construct an associated Springer…
