Let $\mathbb{K}$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. An affine algebraic variety $X$ over $\mathbb{K}$ is toral if it is isomorphic to a closed subvariety of a torus $(\mathbb{K}^*)^d$. We study the group…

Following the work of Burger, Iozzi and Wienhard for representations, in this paper we introduce the notion of maximal measurable cocycles of a surface group. More precisely, let $\mathbf{G}$ be a semisimple algebraic $\mathbb{R}$-group…

We investigate the class of root systems $R$ obtained by extending an $A_1$-type irreducible root system by a free abelian group $G$. In this context there is a Weyl group $W$ and a group $U$ with the presentation by conjugation. Both…

This is a companion paper to our previous work, where we proved the finiteness of the Tate-Shafarevich group for an arbitrary torus $T$ over a finitely generated field $K$ with respect to any divisorial set $V$ of places of $K$. Here, we…

We introduce the notion of algebraic cogroup over a subfield $k$ of the complex numbers, and use it to prove that every Nori motive over $k$ is isomorphic to a quotient of a motive of the form $H^n(X, Y)(i)$.

The problem of understanding whether two given function fields are isomorphic is well-known to be difficult, particularly when the aim is to prove that an isomorphism does not exist. In this paper we investigate a family of maximal function…

We study the structure of the Mordell--Weil groups of semiabelian varieties over large algebraic extensions of a finitely generated field of characteristic zero. We consider two types of algebraic extensions in this paper; one is of…

We prove that if $G$ is finite 2-generated $p$-group of nilpotence class at most 2 then the group algebra of $G$ with coefficients in the field with $p$ elements determines $G$ up to isomorphisms.

Let G be a split Kac-Moody group over a non-archimedean local field. We define a completion of the Iwahori-Hecke algebra of G. We determine its center and prove that it is isomorphic to the spherical Hecke algebra of G using the Satake…

The Lascoux-Leclerc-Thibon conjecture, reformulated and solved by S. Ariki, asserts that the K-group of the representations of the affine Hecke algebras of type A is isomorphic to the algebra of functions on the maximal unipotent subgroup…

Let G be a split semisimple linear algebraic group over a field k0. Let E be a G-torsor over a field extension k of k0. Let h be an algebraic oriented cohomology theory in the sense of Levine-Morel. Consider a twisted form E/B of the…

Let C be the centralizer in a finite Weyl group of an elementary abelian 2-subgroup. We show that every complex representation of C can be realized over the field of rational numbers. The same holds for a Sylow 2-subgroup of C.

We count the conjugacy classes of maximal tori in the groups of symplectomorphisms of S^2 \times S^2 and of the blow-up of CP^2 at a point.

In this paper, we show that the maximal divisible subgroup of groups $K_1$ and $K_2$ of an elliptic curve $E$ over a function field is uniquely divisible. Further those $K$-groups modulo this uniquely divisible subgroup are explicitly…

We address the problem of when two finite dimensional central division algebras over the same field are necessarily isomorphic given that they have the same maximal subfields.

We give a classification of maximal elements of the set of finite groups that can be realized as the full automorphism groups of polarized abelian surfaces over finite fields.

The normalizer $N_G(H_G)$ of a maximal torus $H_G$ in a semisimple complex Lie group $G$ does not in general allow a presentation as a semidirect product of $H_G$ and the corresponding Weyl group $W_G$. Meanwhile, splitting holds for…

Let $k$ be an infinite field of positive characteristic. We determine all homomorphisms between Weyl modules for $GLn(k)$, where one of the partitions is a hook. As a consequence we obtain a nonvanishing result concerning homomorphisms…

The Lascoux-Leclerc-Thibon-Ariki theory asserts that the K-group of the representations of the affine Hecke algebras of type A is isomorphic to the algebra of functions on the maximal unipotent subgroup of the group associated with a Lie…

We study arithmetical and geometrical properties of maximal curves, that is, curves defined over the finite field F_{q^2} whose number of F_{q^2}-rational points reaches the Hasse-Weil upper bound. Under a hypothesis on non-gaps at a…
