We extend the work of Ash and Stevens [Ash-Stevens 97] on p-adic analytic families of p-ordinary arithmetic cohomology classes for GL(N,Q) by introducing and investigating the concept of p-adic rigidity of arithmetic Hecke eigenclasses. An…
We prove there is only one involution (up to conjugacy) on the n-torus which acts as $-\mathrm{Id}$ on the first homology group when $n$ is of the form $4k$, is of the form $4k+1$, or is less than $4$. In all other cases we prove there are…
The D-brane spectrum of a class of $\Zop_2$ orbifolds of toroidally compactified Type IIA and Type IIB string theory is analysed systematically. The corresponding K-theory groups are determined and complete agreement is found. The charge…
S. Bigelow proved that the braid groups are linear. That is, there is a faithful representation of the braid group into the general linear group of some field. Using this, we deduce from previously known results that the mapping class group…
We consider here operators which are sum of (possibly) fractional derivatives, with (possibly different) order. The main constructive assumption is that the operator is of order~$2$ in one variable. By constructing an explicit barrier, we…
We give a new proof for the maximality of the monodromy group of a Nikulin orbifold, a symplectic orbifold arising as terminalisation of a symplectic quotient of a $K3^{[2]}$-type fourfold.
The first main result is a topological rigidity theorem for complete immersed hypersurfaces of spherical space forms which extends similar results due to do Carmo/Warner, Wang/Xia and Longa/Ripoll. Under certain sharp conditions on the…
We deal with the symmetries of a (2-term) graded vector space or bundle. Our first theorem shows that they define a (strict) Lie 2-groupoid in a natural way. Our second theorem explores the construction of nerves for Lie 2-categories,…
For an orbifold, there is a notion of an orbifold embedding, which is more general than the one of sub-orbifolds. We develop several properties of orbifold embeddings. In the case of translation groupoids, we show that such a notion is…
In this paper, which is a sequel of arXiv:2002.07494, we investigate, for any reductive group $G$ over an algebraically closed field $k$, the Picard group of the universal moduli stack $\mathrm{Bun}_{G,g,n}$ of $G$-bundles over $n$-pointed…
There are (at least) two different approaches to define equivariant analogue of the Euler charateristic for a space with a finite group action. The first one defines it as an element of the Burnside ring of the group. The second approach…
In this paper, we study geometric rigidity of Riemannian manifolds admitting stable solutions of certain elliptic problems (stability in a variational sense), that is, under suitable hypotheses, we are able to characterize the Riemannian…
Let $M$ be a compact complex manifold. The corresponding Teichmuller space $\Teich$ is a space of all complex structures on $M$ up to the action of the group of isotopies. The group $\Gamma$ of connected components of the diffeomorphism…
The discrete tensorial charges carried by orientifold planes define n-gerbes in space-time. The simplest way to ensure a consistent string compactification is to require these gerbes to be flat. This results in expressions for the local…
Upper bounds on projective rigidity of each homogeneously embedded homogeneous variety are determined; and a new, invariant characterization of the Fubini forms is given.
The modular variety of non singular and complete hyperelliptic curves with level-two structure of genus 3 is a 5-dimensional quasi projective variety which admits several standard compactifications. The first one, X, comes from the…
We discuss topological rigidity of vector bundles with asymptotically conical (AC) total spaces of rank greater than 1 with a sufficiently connected link; our focus will mainly be on ALE (asymptotically locally Euclidean) bundles. Within…
In this paper we prove the scalar curvature extremality and rigidity for a class of warped product spaces that are possibly degenerate at the two ends. The leaves of these warped product spaces can be any closed Riemannian manifolds with…
We show that the problem of deciding whether a closed three-manifold admits an elliptic structure lies in NP. Furthermore, determining the homeomorphism type of an elliptic manifold lies in the complexity class FNP. These are both…
For a complex connected semisimple linear algebraic group $G$ of adjoint type and of rank $n$, De Concini and Procesi constructed its wonderful compactification $\bar{G}$, which is a smooth Fano $G \times G$-variety of Picard number $n$…
