In this article, we develop a positive characteristic analogue of the Bernstein--Sato theory for holonomic D-modules in the complex setting. We work with D-modules on a Noetherian regular $F$-finite $\mathbb{F}_p$-scheme $X$, and define…
Let K be a subfield of the complex numbers, and let D be the Weyl algebra of K-linear differential operators on K[x_1,...,x_n]. If M and N are holonomic left D-modules we present an algorithm that computes explicit generators for the finite…
The Gorenstein property in local algebra admits several characterizations via its module category. The goal of this paper is to collect and generalize such characterizations to the relative setting, i.e., to Gorenstein morphisms as defined…
In this paper, we establish a rigidity result for automorphisms of multiplicative direct products of $D$-rings which are total ring of fraction that have pairwise distinct cardinalities. Under these assumptions, every automorphism acts…
Let $D(s)$ be a fractional derivation of order $s$. For a real $p\ne 0$, we construct an integral operator $A(p)$ in an appropriate functional space such that $A(p) D(s) A(p)^{-1}=D(p s)$ for all $s$. The kernel of the operator $A(p)$ is…
Given $f \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ and $n \in \mathbb{Z^{+}}$, the $\emph{discriminator}$ $D_f(n)$ is the smallest positive integer $m$ such that $f(1), \ldots, f(n)$ are distinct mod $m$. In a recent paper, Z.-W. Sun proved that $D_f(n) =…
In this paper we give elementary conditions completely characterising when the theory of modules of a Pr\"ufer domain is decidable. Using these results, we show that the theory of modules of the ring of integer valued polynomials is…
Let E be a cyclic extension of degree p^n of a field F of characteristic p. Using arithmetic invariants of E/F we determine k_mE, the Milnor K-groups K_mE modulo p, as Fp[Gal(E/F)]-modules for all m in N. In particular, we show that each…
Let $R$ be a regular semi-local ring, essentially of finite type over an infinite perfect field of characteristic $p \ge 3$. We show that the cycle class map with modulus from an earlier work of the authors induces a pro-isomorphism between…
Consider a field k of characteristic p > 0, G_r the r-th Frobenius kernel of a smooth algebraic group G, DG_r the Drinfeld double of G_r, and M a finite dimensional DG_r-module. We prove that the cohomology algebra H*(DG_r,k) is finitely…
Let $P(x)$ be a polynomial of degree $m$, with nonnegative and non-decreasing coefficients. We settle the conjecture that for any positive real number $d$, the coefficients of $P(x+d)$ form a unimodal sequence, of which the special case $d$…
In algebraic geometry, one studies the solutions to polynomial equations, or, equivalently, to linear partial differential equations with constant coefficients. These lecture notes address the more general case when the coefficients are…
Let $p$ be a prime number and $k$ be a positive integer not divisible by $p$. We describe the Heller translates of the periodic Lie module $\mathrm{Lie}(pk)$ in characteristic $p$ and show that it has period $2p-2$ when $p$ is odd and $1$…
Reconstructing magnetizations from measurements of the generated magnetic potential is generally non-unique. The non-uniqueness still remains if one restricts the magnetization to those induced by an ambient magnetic dipole field (i.e., the…
Let $p$ be a prime number, $V$ a discrete valuation ring of unequal caracteristics $(0,p)$, $G$ a smooth affine algebraic group over $Spec \,V$. Using partial divided powers techniques of Berthelot, we construct arithmetic distribution…
In this paper we generalize the classical Groebner basis technique to prove the existence and present a method of computation of a dimension polynomial in two variables associated with a finitely generated D-module, that is, a finitely…
Let $Z=X_1\times...\times X_n$ be a product of Drinfeld modular curves. We characterize those algebraic subvarieties $X \subset Z$ containing a Zariski-dense set of CM points, i.e. points corresponding to $n$-tuples of Drinfeld modules with…
Let (R,m,k) be an excellent, local, normal ring of characteristic p with a perfect residue field and dim R=d. Let M be a finitely generated R-module. We show that there exists a real number beta(M) such that lambda(M/I^[q]M) = e_{HK}(M) q^d…
Let D be a domain with quotient field K and A a D-algebra. We call a polynomial with coefficients in K that maps every element of A to an element of A "integer-valued on A". For commutative A we also consider integer-valued polynomials in…
