This expository monograph cuts a short path from the common, elementary background in geometry (linear algebra, vector bundles, and algebraic ideals) to the most advanced theorems about involutive exterior differential systems: (1) The…
We study the $G$-strand equations that are extensions of the classical chiral model of particle physics in the particular setting of broken symmetries described by symmetric spaces. These equations are simple field theory models whose…
We study the representations of a class of non-commutative polynomial algebras truncated at degree 3, with one additional relation. We determine the irreducible components of their varieties of representations. We do this by showing that…
For an algebraically closed field K, let G be a finite abelian group of K-linear automorphisms of a finite-dimensional algebra A and AG is the associated skew group algebra. The author with S. Trepode and A. G. Chaio introduced the notion…
The goal of this paper is to remove the irreducibility hypothesis in a theorem of Richard Taylor describing the image of complex conjugations by $p$-adic Galois representations associated with regular, algebraic, essentially self-dual,…
We give a closed formula for the dimension of all linear systems in $\mathbb{P}^n$ with assigned multiplicity at arbitrary collections of points lying on a rational normal curve of degree $n$. In particular we give a purely geometric…
In this article, we show that for any non-isotrivial family of abelian varieties over a rational base with big monodromy, those members that have adelic Galois representation with image as large as possible form a density-$1$ subset. Our…
The important unsolved problem in theory of integrable systems is to find conditions guaranteeing existence of a Lax representation for a given PDE. The use of the exotic cohomology of the symmetry algebras opens a way to formulate such…
The classical Prym construction associates to a smooth, genus $g$ complex curve $X$ equipped with a nonzero cohomology class $\theta \in H^1(X,\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z})$, a principally polarized abelian variety (PPAV) $\mbox{Prym}(X,\theta)$.…
Let $G_n=\mathrm{GL}_n(F)$ be the general linear group over a non-Archimedean local field $F$. We formulate and prove a necessary and sufficient condition on determining when \[ \mathrm{Hom}_{G_n}(\pi, \pi') \neq 0 \] for irreducible smooth…
Nontrivial examples of Teichm\"uller curves have been studied systematically with notions of combinatorics invariant under affine homeomorphisms. An origami (square-tiled surface) induces a Teichm\"uller curve for which the absolute Galois…
In this work we use the bigonal, trigonal and tetragonal constructions to describe the fibers of the Prym map P : R_{g} ---->A_{g-1} inthe cases when it is dominant, i.e. for g < 7. The most interesting cases are g = 5, where the fiber is a…
We survey some important results concerning the finite--dimensional representations of the loop algebra of a simple complex Lie algebra, and their twisted loop subalgebras. In particular, we review the parametrization and description of the…
We study irreducible mod p representations, valued in general reductive groups, of the Galois group of a number field. When the number field is totally real, we show that odd representations satisfying local ramification hypotheses and a…
Multidimensional contractions of irreducible representations of the Cayley-Klein unitary algebras in the Gel'fand-Zetlin basis are considered. Contracted over different parameters, algebras can turn out to be isomorphic. In this case method…
For an additive polynomial and a positive integer, we define an irreducible smooth representation of a Weil group of a non-archimedean local field. We study several invariants of this representation. We deduce a necessary and sufficient…
Let $X$ be a variety (possibly non-complete or singular) over a finitely generated field $k$ of characteristic $0$. For a prime number $\ell$, let $\rho_\ell$ be the Galois representation on the first $\ell$-adic cohomology of $X$. We show…
We use algebraic geometry to study the anomaly-free representations of an arbitrary gauge Lie algebra for 4-dimensional spacetime fermions. For irreducible representations, the problem reduces to studying the Lie algebras $\mathfrak{su}_n$…
We study the representation theory of a generalized graded Hecke algebra associated to a complex reflection group of type G(r,1,n), defined by Ram and Shepler. We use a realization of this algebra in the corresponding symplectic reflection…
A two-dimensional Galois representation into the Hecke algebra of Katz modular forms of weight one over a finite field of characteristic p is constructed and is shown to be unramified at p in most cases.
