Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and $k[[z]]$ the ring of formal power series over $k$. In this paper, we study equations in the semigroup $z^2k[[z]]$ with the semigroup operation being composition. We prove…
We prove the existence of complexified real arrangements with the same combinatorics but different embeddings in the complex projective plane. Such pair of arrangements has an additional property: they admit conjugated equations on the ring…
We consider groups of orientation-preserving real analytic diffeomorphisms of the circle which have a finite image under the rotation number function. We show that if such a group is nondiscrete with respect to the $C^1$-topology then it…
We prove two theorems that confirm an observation of Lubin concerning families of $p$-adic power series that commute under composition: under certain conditions, there is a formal group such that the power series in the family are either…
In this paper, we consider categories with colored morphisms and functors such that morphisms assigned to morphisms with a common color have a common color. In this paper, we construct a morphism-colored functor such that any…
We describe a procedure for constructing morphisms in additive categories, combining Auslander's concept of a morphism determined by an object with the existence of flat covers. Also, we show how flat covers are turned into projective…
We study the complex irreducible representations of special linear, symplectic, orthogonal and unitary groups over principal ideal local rings of length two. We construct a canonical correspondence between the irreducible representations of…
We prove several new transversality results for formal CR maps between formal real hypersurfaces in complex space. Both cases of finite and infinite type hypersurfaces are tackled in this note.
We prove that for finitely generated abelian groups $A$ and $B$, the space of $\mathbb{E}_\infty$-ring maps between the spherical groups rings $\mathbb{S}[A] \to \mathbb{S}[B]$ is equivalent to the discrete set of group homomorphisms $A \to…
For a prime $p$, fusion systems over discrete $p$-toral groups are categories that model and generalize the $p$-local structure of Lie groups and certain other infinite groups in the same way that fusion systems over finite $p$-groups model…
We construct a complex of differential forms on a local $C^\infty$-ringed space. The two main classes of spaces we have in mind are differential spaces in the sense of Sikorski and $C^\infty$-schemes. Just as in the case of manifolds the…
We initiate a systematic study of the perfection of affine group schemes of finite type over fields of positive characteristic. The main result intrinsically characterises and classifies the perfections of reductive groups, and obtains a…
We consider generalized $\Lambda$-structures on algebras and schemes over the ring of integers $\mathit{O}_K$ of a number field $K$. When $K=\mathbb{Q}$, these agree with the $\lambda$-ring structures of algebraic K-theory. We then study…
Several large classes of homogeneous spaces are known to be formal---in the sense of Rational Homotopy Theory. However, it seems that far fewer examples of non-formal homogeneous spaces are known. In this article we provide several…
The set of periodic distributions, with usual addition and convolution, forms a ring, which is isomorphic, via taking a Fourier series expansion, to the ring ${\mathcal{S}}'({\mathbb{Z}}^d)$ of sequences of at most polynomial growth with…
We show that all spin groups of non-definite, quinary quadratic forms over a field with characteristic 0 can be represented as 2 by 2 matrices with entries in an associated quaternion algebra. Over local and global fields, we further study…
We show that normalizers and permutational isomorphisms of permutation groups given by generating sets can be computed in time simply exponential in the degree of the groups. The result is obtained by exploiting canonical forms for…
The following three types of objects are considered in a dual functorial formalism: (i) ind-scheme of mappings between two schemes, (ii) for a quantum group G, ind-scheme of G-mappings between two G-schemes, and (iii) ind-scheme of group…
The first examples of formations which are arboreous (and therefore Hall) but not freely indexed (and therefore not locally extensible) are found. Likewise, the first examples of solvable formations which are freely indexed and arboreous…
In this paper, we establish the decomposition of morphisms from lattice of subgroup sets to generalized solvable extension formations. To achieve this, we develop a unified framework involving maximal subgroup functors, generating formation…
