For the group of endo-permutation modules of a finite \(p\)-group, there is a surjective reduction modulo \(p\) homomorphism from a complete discrete valuation ring of characteristic 0 to its residue field of characteristic \(p\). We prove…

Let Z be the germ of a complex hypersurface isolated singularity of equation f, with Z at least of dimension 2. We consider the family of analytic D-modules generated by the powers of 1/f and describe it in terms of the pole order…

We show that the Deligne formal model of the Drinfeld p-adic halfplane relative to a non-archimedean local field F represents a moduli problem of polarized O_F-modules with an action of the ring of integers O_E in a quadratic extension E of…

We study differential graded algebras whose homology is an exterior algebra over a commutative ring R on a generator of degree n, and also certain types of differential modules over these DGAs. We obtain a complete classification when R is…

A class of self-inversive polynomials includes all the self-reciprocal polynomials. Let A denote the set of all self-reciprocal polynomials with n+1 coefficients. Let B denote the set of certain self-inversive and non self-reciprocal…

We consider the following question: When are rings of differential operators coherent? If $A$ is a finitely generated smooth domain over a field $k$ of characteristic $0$, then the ring $D$ of differential operators on $A$ is a Noetherian…

Let $p$ be a prime number, $\Bbbk$ a field of characteristic $p$ and $G$ a finite $p$-group acting on a standard graded polynomial ring $S = \Bbbk[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ as degree-preserving $\Bbbk$-algebra automorphisms. Assume that $G$ is…

Let S/R be a finite extension of discrete valuation rings of characteristic p>0, and suppose that the corresponding extension L/K of fields of fractions is separable and is H-Galois for some K-Hopf algebra H. Let D_{S/R} be the different of…

We present a method to compute the holonomic extension of a $D$-module from a Zariski open set in affine space to the whole space. A particular application is the localization of coherent $D$-modules which are holonomic on the complement of…

Let G be a reductive complex algebraic group and V a finite-dimensional G-module. From elements of the invariant algebra C[V]^G we obtain by polarization elements of C[kV]^G, where k\geq 1 and kV denotes the direct sum of k copies of V. For…

Let $M$ be a finitely generated module on a local ring $R$ and $\F: M_0\subset M_1\subset...\subset M_t=M$ a filtration of submodules of $M$ such that $ d_o<d_1< ... <d_t=d$, where $d_i=\dim M_i$. This paper is concerned with a non-negative…

Let $D$ be an integrally closed domain with quotient field $K$. Let $A$ be a torsion-free $D$-algebra that is finitely generated as a $D$-module. For every $a$ in $A$ we consider its minimal polynomial $\mu_a(X)\in D[X]$, i.e. the monic…

Let $\phi(x) = x^d + c$ be an integral polynomial of degree at least 2, and consider the sequence $(\phi^n(0))_{n=0}^\infty$, which is the orbit of $0$ under iteration by $\phi$. Let $D_{d,c}$ denote the set of positive integers $n$ for…

We obtain two equivalent conditions for m polynomials in n variables to form a p-basis of a ring of constants of some polynomial K-derivation, where K is a UFD of characteristic p>0. One of these conditions involves jacobians, and the…

We prove two basic structural properties of the algebraic $K$-theory of rings after $K(1)$-localization at an implicit prime $p$. Our first result (also recently obtained by Land--Meier--Tamme by different methods) states that $L_{K(1)}…

Let R be a polynomial ring over k(u), where k is a field k and u is a finite family or inderterminates. The paper introduces the specialization of an arbitrary finitely generated R-module by the substitution of u to elements of k. This…

Let E be a cyclic extension of pth-power degree of a field F of characteristic p. For all m, s in N, we determine K_mE/p^sK_mE as a (Z/p^sZ)[Gal(E/F)]-module. We also provide examples of extensions for which all of the possible nonzero…

For a not-necessarily commutative ring R we define an abelian group W(R;M) of Witt vectors with coefficients in an R-bimodule M. These groups generalize the usual big Witt vectors of commutative rings and we prove that they have analogous…

We generalize a recent result of Clausen: For a number field with integers O, we compute the K-theory of locally compact O-modules. For the rational integers this recovers Clausen's result as a special case. Our method of proof is quite…
