We give an 'arithmetic regularity lemma' for groups definable in finite fields, analogous to Tao's 'algebraic regularity lemma' for graphs definable in finite fields. More specifically, we show that, for any $M>0$, any finite field…
For a natural class of cohomology theories with support (including \'etale or pro-\'etale cohomology with suitable coefficients), we prove a moving lemma for cohomology classes with support on smooth quasi-projective k-varieties that admit…
We introduce the notion of lef line bundles on a complex projective manifold. We prove that lef line bundles satisfy the Hard Lefschetz Theorem, the Lefschetz Decomposition and the Hodge-Riemann Bilinear Relations. We study proper…
We study multiplicative functions $f$ satisfying $|f(n)|\le 1$ for all $n$, the associated Dirichlet series $F(s):=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} f(n) n^{-s}$, and the summatory function $S_f(x):=\sum_{n\le x} f(n)$. Up to a possible trivial…
Normal affine algebraic varieties in characteristic 0 are uniquely determined (up to isomorphism) by the Lie algebra of derivations of their coordinate ring. This is not true without the hypothesis of normality. But, we show that (in…
We prove that the existence of an automorphism of finite order on a (defined over a number field) variety X implies the existence of algebraic linear relations between the logarithm of certain periods of X and the logarithm of special…
For a classical group $G$ over a field $F$ together with a finite-order automorphism $\theta$ that acts compatibly on $F$, we describe the fixed point subgroup of $\theta$ on $G$ and the eigenspaces of $\theta$ on the Lie algebra…
For a finitely generated free group F_n, of rank at least 2, any finite subgroup of Out(F_n) can be realized as a group of automorphisms of a graph with fundamental group F_n. This result, known as Out(F_n) realization, was proved by…
We establish a purely geometric form of the concentration theorem (also called localization theorem) for actions of a linearly reductive group $G$ on an affine scheme $X$ over an affine base scheme $S$. It asserts the existence of a…
Using the theory of o-minimality we show that the $p$-adic method of Skolem-Mahler-Lech-Chabauty may be adapted to prove instances of the dynamical Mordell-Lang conjecture for some real analytic dynamical systems. For example, we show that…
We prove some new results on the arithmetic of abelian varieties over function fields of one variable over finitely generated (infinite) fields. Among other things, we introduce certain new natural objects `discrete Selmer groups' and…
Let $G$ be a connected reductive group defined and split over a non-archimedean local field $F$. We give a new geometric proof of a special case of a recent theorem of Solleveld. Namely, we show that the class of standard Iwahori-spherical…
In the present paper we discuss questions concerning the arithmetic resolution for etale cohomology. Namely, consider a smooth quasi-projective variety X over a field k together with the local scheme U at a point x. Let Y be a smooth proper…
The Shapley-Folkman theorem shows that Minkowski averages of uniformly bounded sets tend to be convex when the number of terms in the sum becomes much larger than the ambient dimension. In optimization, Aubin and Ekeland [1976] show that…
Let $f$ be an inner function with $f(0)=0$ which is not a rotation and let $f^{n}$ be its $n$-th iterate. Let $\{a_{n}\}$ be a sequence of complex numbers. We prove that the series $\sum a_{n}f^{n}(\xi)$ converges at almost every point…
We characterize in terms of characteristic sequences the semigroups corresponding to branches at infinity of plane affine curves $\Gamma$ for which there exists a polynomial automorphism mapping $\Gamma$ onto the axis $x=0$.
For every affine variety over a global function field, we show that the set of its points with coordinates in an arbitrary rank-one multiplicative subgroup of this function field is topologically dense in the set of its points with…
In this paper we apply ideas from the theory of Uniform Distribution of sequences to Functional Analysis and then drawing inspiration from the consequent results, we study concepts and results in Uniform Distribution itself. So let $E$ be a…
This paper resolves the unicity conjecture of Bonahon and Wong for the Kauffman bracket skein algebras of all oriented finite type surfaces at all roots of unity. The proof is a consequence of a general unicity theorem that says that the…
We give a constructive elementary proof for the fact that any K-automorphism of the full nxn matrix algebra over a field K is conjugation by some invertible nxn matrix A over K.
