We generalize the main result of arXiv:1206.6631 [math.NT] to all totally real fields. In other words, for $p>2$ prime, we prove (under a mild Taylor-Wiles hypothesis) that if a modular representation is unramified and $p$-distinguished at…

We show that a smooth Moishezon space $Y$ is non-projective if and only if it contains a rational curve such that $-[C] \in \overline{\mathrm{NE}}(Y)$. More generally, this holds if $Y$ has $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial, log terminal…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic, $\mathfrak{g}$ be its Lie algebra, and $B$ be a Borel subgroup. We prove a formula for the dimensions of extension groups, in…

Let $C$ be an elliptic curve, $w\in C$, and let $S\subset C$ be a finite subset of cardinality at least $3$. We prove a Torelli type theorem for the moduli space of rank two parabolic vector bundles with determinant line bundle $\mathcal…

Let $\fg$ be any untwisted affine Kac-Moody algebra, $\mu$ any fixed complex number, and $\wt\fg(\mu)$ the corresponding toroidal extended affine Lie algebra of nullity two. For any $k$-tuple $\bm{\lambda}=({\lambda}_1, \cdots,…

Let $X$ be a normal compact K\"ahler space with klt singularities and torsion canonical bundle. We show that $X$ admits arbitrarily small deformations that are projective varieties if its locally trivial deformation space is smooth. We then…

We discuss the projectivity of the moduli space of semistable vector bundles on a curve of genus $g\geq 2$. This is a classical result from the 1960s, obtained using geometric invariant theory. We outline a modern approach that combines the…

Let R be an associative ring with identity. We study an elementary generalization of the classical Zariski topology, applied to the set of isomorphism classes of simple left R-modules (or, more generally, simple objects in a complete…

One of the major open problems in noncommutative algebraic geometry is the classification of noncommutative projective surfaces (or, slightly more generally, of noetherian connected graded domains of Gelfand-Kirillov dimension 3). Earlier…

Let $R/S$ be a Frobenius extension and $k$ be a positive integer. We prove that an $R$-module is $k$-torsionfree if and only if so is its underlying $S$-module. As an application, we obtain that if $S$ is a quasi $k$-Gorenstein ring then so…

We define the notion of "projective" multiresolution analyses, for which, by definition, the initial space corresponds to a finitely generated projective module over the algebra $C(\btn)$ of continuous complex-valued functions on an…

Let $C,A$ be countable abelian groups. In this paper we determine the complexity of classifying extensions $C$ by $A$, in the cases when $C$ is torsion-free and $A$ is a $p$-group, a torsion group with bounded primary components, or a free…

For each classical irreducible bounded symmetric domain $\mathcal{D}$, Klingler has computed the minimum number $m_{\mathcal{D}}$ such that any smooth projective quotient $X=\mathcal{D}/\Gamma$, for $\Gamma\in\textrm{Aut}^0(\mathcal{D})$,…

For any ring $R$, we investigate balanced pairs of classes of modules and their relations to cotorsion triples. We characterize the case when a balanced pair generates a tilting cotorsion pair, and dually, when it cogenerates a cotilting…

Answering a long-standing question in the theory of torsion modules, we show that weakly productively bounded domains are necessarily productively bounded. Moreover, we prove a twin result for the ideal lattice L of a domain equating weak…

Let U be a smooth quasi-projective variety over a field k that is finite, the algebraic closure of a finite field or algebraically closed of characteristic 0. Let X be a suitable projective compactification of U, and D an effective divisor…

An important result in real algebraic geometry is the projection theorem: every projection of a semialgebraic set is again semialgebraic. This theorem and some of its conclusions lie at the basis of many other results, for example the…

Let A be a ring of dimension d and let P be a projective A-module of rank d. We prove that if for every finite extension R of A, R^d is cancellative, then P is cancellative. This gives an alternate proof of Bhatwadekar's result: every…

Let \frak a be an ideal of a commutative Noetherian ring R and M a finitely generated R-module. It is shown that {\rm Ann}_R(H_{\frak a}^{{\dim M}({\frak a}, M)}(M))= {\rm Ann}_R(M/T_R({\frak a}, M)), where T_R({\frak a}, M) is the largest…

Let $X$ be a Banach space and let $\kappa(X)$ denote the kernel of a quotient map $\ell_1(\Gamma)\to X$. We show that $\Ext^2(X,X^*)=0$ if and only if bilinear forms on $\kappa(X)$ extend to $\ell_1(\Gamma)$. From that we obtain i) If…
