We give an alternative proof of the mod $p$ vanishing theorem by F.Fang of Seiberg-Witten invariants under a cyclic group action of prime order, and generalize it to the case when $b_1>0$. Although we also use the finite dimensional…

For $R$ a Euclidean number ring, and let $\Gamma_n(p)$ be the level-$p$ principal congruence subgroup of $\text{SL}_n(R)$. Borel--Serre showed that the cohomology of $\Gamma_n(p)$ vanishes above a degree $\nu$ that is quadratic in $n$. Let…

We study the eta invariants of compact flat spin manifolds of dimension n with holonomy group cyclic of odd prime order p. We find explicit expressions for the twisted and relative eta invariants and show that the reduced eta invariant is…

We exhibit some new families of cyclotomic fields which have non-trivial plus parts of their class numbers. We also prove the $3$ - divisibility of the plus part of the class number of another family consisting of infinitely many cyclotomic…

Let $a\geq 1$ and $n>1$ be odd integers. For a given prime $p$, we prove under certain conditions that the class groups of imaginary quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{a^2-4p^n})$ have a subgroup isomorphic to $\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$. We…

Let $p$ be an odd prime number, and let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over a number field which has good reduction at every prime above $p$. Under suitable assumptions, we prove that the $\eta$-eigenspace and the $\bar{\eta}$-eigenspace…

We show vanishing of the second $L^p$-cohomology group for most semisimple algebraic groups of rank at least 3 over local fields. More precisely, we show this result for $\SL(4)$, for simple groups of rank $\geq 4$ that are not of…

For $N\geq 3$, we show Tate's conjecture for the elliptic modular surface $E(N)$ of level $N$ over $\mathbb{F}_p$ for a prime $p$ satisfying $p\equiv 1\mod N$ outside of a set of primes of density zero. We also prove a strong form of Tate's…

Let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be an elliptic curve and $p$ an odd prime. In 1991 Kolyvagin conjectured that the system of cohomology classes for torsion quotients of the $p$-adic Tate module of $E$ derived from Heegner points over ring class fields of…

Let p be an odd prime. Let K_p = \Q(zeta_p) be the p-cyclotomic field. We apply a Kummer and Stickelberger relation of K_p to some singular not primary numbers A of K_p connected to p-class group of K_p and prove they verify the congruence…

We prove that the profinite completion of the fundamental group of a compact 3-manifold $M$ satisfies a Tits alternative: if a closed subgroup $H$ does not contain a free pro-$p$ subgroup for any $p$, then $H$ is virtually soluble, and…

Let $\Gamma_{0,n}^+(p)\subset \mathrm{SL}_n(\mathbb{Z})$ be the congruence subgroup of level-$p$ whose first column is of the form $(*,0,\dots,0)^t\bmod p$. We prove that the top-dimensional cohomology group…

Let p be an odd prime. Let F_p^* be the no-null part of the finite field of p elements. Let K = Q(zeta) be the p-cyclotomic field and let O_K be the ring of integers of K. Let pi be the prime ideal of K lying over p. An integer B \in O_K is…

Let $\Gamma_n(p)$ be the level-$p$ principal congruence subgroup of $\text{SL}_n(\mathbb{Z})$. Borel-Serre proved that the cohomology of $\Gamma_n(p)$ vanishes above degree $\binom{n}{2}$. We study the cohomology in this top degree…

We examine in detail the stable reduction of Galois covers of the projective line over a complete discrete valuation field of mixed characteristic (0, p), where G has a cyclic p-Sylow subgroup of order p^n. If G is further assumed to be…

Let p be a prime = 3 (mod 4). A number of elegant number-theoretical properties of the sums T(p) = \sqrt{p}sum_{n=1}^{(p-1)/2} tan(n^2\pi/p) and C(p) = \sqrt{p}sum_{n=1}^{(p-1)/2} cot(n^2\pi/p) are proved. For example, T(p) equals p times…

Kummer's conjecture states that the relative class number of the $p$-th cyclotomic field follows a strict asymptotic law. Granville has shown it unlikely to be true -- it cannot be true if we assume the truth of two other widely believed…

The aim of this paper is to study the group of elliptic units of a cyclic extension $L$ of an imaginary quadratic field $K$ such that the degree $[L:K]$ is a power of an odd prime $p$. We construct an explicit root of the usual top…

We prove a conjecture of J. Carlson, N. Mazza and J. Th\'evenaz; namely, we will prove that if $G$ is a finite $p$-nilpotent group which contains a non-cyclic elementary Abelian $p$-subgroup and $k$ is an algebraically closed field of…
