Let $k$ be a field with a real valuation $\nu$ and $R$ a $k$-algebra. We show that there exist a $k$-algebra $K$ and a real valuation $\mu$ on $K$ extending $\nu$ such that any real ring valuation of $R$ is induced by $\mu$ via some…

We prove existence and nonexistence results for certain differential forms in positive characteristic, called {\em good deformation data}. Some of these results are obtained by reduction modulo $p$ of Belyi maps. As an application, we solve…

Let R be an affine PI-algebra over an algebraically closed field k and let G be an affine algebraic k-group that acts rationally by algebra automorphisms on R. For R prime and G a torus, we show that R has only finitely many G-prime ideals…

Let $K/\mathbb{Q}_p$ be a finite extension. For all irreducible representations $\bar\rho: G_K \to G(\bar{\mathbb{F}}_p)$ valued in a general reductive group $G$, we construct crystalline lifts of $\bar\rho$ which are Hodge-Tate regular. We…

Let $K$ be a non-archimedean local field. We show that discrete subgroups without 2-torsion in $\mathrm{PSL}_2(K)$ can always be lifted to $\mathrm{SL}_2(K)$, and provide examples (when $\mathrm{char}(K) \neq 2$) which cannot be lifted if…

For cyclic totally real number fields $K$ with odd prime degree $n$, odd class number, $2$ inert, and the property that every totally positive unit is a square, the density of rational primes $p$ that satisfy the spin relation…

In this paper we present new examples of simple $p$-local compact groups for all odd primes. We also develop the necessary tools to show saturation, simpleness and the non-realizability as $p$-compact groups or compact Lie groups, which can…

Let $C$ be a Grothendieck topos, $G$ and $H$ group objects of $C$. Let $p:P\rightarrow X$ be an $H$-torsor. Suppose that $X$ is endowed with an action of $G$. In this paper, we study the obstructions to lift the action of $G$ on $X$ to $P$…

We consider the actions of (semi)groups on a locally compact group by automorphisms. We show the equivalence of distality and pointwise distality for the actions of a certain class of groups. We also show that a compactly generated locally…

Let G be a group which acts on a commutative ring k. We exhibit an induction formula which expresses an element x_G with tr_G(x_G)=1 by elements x_P with tr_P(x_P)=1, where P varies over prime order subgroups of P.

Let $p$ be a prime number, $G$ be a finite $p$-group and $K$ be a field of characteristic $p$. The Modular Isomorphism Problem (MIP) asks whether the group algebra $KG$ determines the group $G$. Dealing with MIP, we investigated a question…

Let $K$ be any field and $G$ be a finite group. Let $G$ act on the rational function field $K(x_g: \ g \in G)$ by $K$-automorphisms defined by $g \cdot x_h=x_{gh}$ for any $g, \ h \in G$. Denote by $K(G)$ the fixed field $K(x_g: \ g \in…

Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a finite group scheme over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic ${\rm char}(k)=p\geq 3$. In generalization of the familiar notion from the modular representation theory of finite groups, we define the…

For any odd prime $p$, we give an example of a locally finite $p$-group $G$ containing a left 3-Engel element $x$ where $\langle x \rangle^G$ is not nilpotent.

Let $p$ be a prime and $G$ a subgroup of $GL_d(p)$. We define $G$ to be $p$-exceptional if it has order divisible by $p$, but all its orbits on vectors have size coprime to $p$. We obtain a classification of $p$-exceptional linear groups.…

Let $k$ be a possibly non-perfect field of characteristic $p > 0$. In this work we prove the local existence of absolute $p$-bases for regular algebras of finite type over $k$. Namely, consider a regular variety $Z$ over $k$. Kimura and…

"Kourovka notebook" contains the question due to L.G. Kov\`acs (Problem 8.23): If the dihedral group $D$ of order 18 is a section of a direct product $X\times Y$, must at least one of $X$ and $Y$ have a section isomorphic to $D$? The goal…
