Motivated by the intermediate Lang conjectures on hyperbolicity and rational points, we prove new finiteness results for non-constant morphisms from a fixed variety to a fixed variety defined over a number field by applying Faltings's…

This is a systematic study of the behaviour of finite coverings of (affine) schemes with regard to two Grothendieck topologies: the canonical topology and the fpqc topology. The history of the problem takes roots in the foundations of…

We prove that any noetherian quasi-excellent scheme of characteristic zero admits a strong desingularization which is functorial with respect to all regular morphisms. We show that as an easy formal consequence of this result one obtains…

We prove, for quasicompact separated schemes over ground fields, that Cech cohomology coincides with sheaf cohomology with respect to the Nisnevich topology. This is a partial generalization of Artin's result that for noetherian schemes…

This paper is concerned with a refinement of the Stein factorization, and with applications to the study of deformations of surjective morphisms. We show that every surjective morphism f:X->Y between normal projective varieties factors…

We extend the classical (connected, etale) factorization of locally connected geometric morphisms into a (terminally connected, pro-etale) factorization for all geometric morphisms between Grothendieck topoi. We discuss properties of both…

The category of coherent sheaves over a noetherian scheme is very important for studying the properties of a given scheme. For noetherian schemes it is a well-known fact that the topology can be fully recovered from the corresponding…

The primary goal of this paper is to investigate the structure of irreducible monomorphisms to and irreducible epimorphisms from finitely generated free modules over a noetherian local ring. Then we show that over such a ring,…

Let $f : X \longrightarrow Y$ be a proper and local complete intersection morphism of schemes. We prove that $\mathbb{R}f_{*}$ preserves perfect complexes, without any projectivity or noetherian assumptions. This provides a different proof…

We initiate a systematic study of the perfection of affine group schemes of finite type over fields of positive characteristic. The main result intrinsically characterises and classifies the perfections of reductive groups, and obtains a…

Formal orbifolds are defined in higher dimension. Their \'etale fundamental groups are also defined. It is shown that the fundamental groups of formal orbifolds have certain finiteness property and it is also shown that they can be used to…

Let u be a local homomorphism of noetherian local rings forming part of a commutative square vf=gu. We give some conditions on the square which imply that u is formally smooth. This result encapsulates a variety of (apparently unrelated)…

This article aims to study non-local Lagrangians with an infinite number of degrees of freedom. We obtain an extension of Noether's theorem and Noether's identities for such Lagrangians. We then set up a Hamiltonian formalism for them. In…

Automorphisms of finite order and real forms of "smooth" affine Kac-Moody algebras are studied, i.e. of 2-dimensional extensions of the algebra of smooth loops in a simple Lie algebra. It is shown that they can be parametrized by certain…

Given a morphism $f \colon X \to Y$ of schemes over a field, we prove several finiteness results about the fibers of the induced map on arc spaces $f_\infty \colon X_\infty \to Y_\infty$. Assuming that $f$ is quasi-finite and $X$ is…

This is an expended and revised version of the preprint "Schematization of homotopy types". The purpose of this work is to introduce a notion of \emph{affine stacks}, which is a homotopy version of the notion of affine schemes, and to give…

We prove that every local complete intersection curve in $Spec(A)$, where $A$ is a commutative Noetherian ring of dimension three, is a set-theoretic complete intersection. An analogous result is established for local complete intersection…

We study the degree of irreducible morphisms in any Auslander-Reiten component of a finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field. We give a characterization for an irreducible morphism to have finite left (or right) degree.…

We analyse infinitesimal deformations of morphisms of locally free sheaves on a smooth projective variety $X$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. In particular, we describe a differential graded Lie algebra…

In this paper, we introduce variants of formal nearby cycles for a locally noetherian formal scheme over a complete discrete valuation ring. If the formal scheme is locally algebraizable, then our nearby cycle gives a generalization of…
