Let $k$ be a commutative Noetherian ring and $\underline{\mathscr{C}}$ be a locally finite $k$-linear category equipped with a self-embedding functor of degree 1. We show under a moderate condition that finitely generated torsion…

Under mild assumptions, we characterise modules with projective resolutions of length n in the target category of filtrated K-theory over a finite topological space in terms of two conditions involving certain Tor-groups. We show that the…

We describe the construction which takes as input a profinite group, which when applied the the absolute Galois group of a geometric field F agrees in some cases with the algebraic K-theory of F. We prove that it agrees in the case of a…

Let $k$ be a field and let $E$ be a finite quiver. We study the structure of the finitely presented modules of finite length over the Leavitt path algebra $L_k (E)$ and show its close relationship with the finite-dimensional representations…

For every natural number k we introduce the notion of k-th order convolution of functions on abelian groups. We study the group of convolution preserving automorphisms of function algebras in the limit. It turns out that such groups have…

If G is a finitely generated group, and A an algebraic group, then Hom(G,A) is a possibly reducible algebraic variety denoted by R_A(G). Here we define the profile function, P_d(R_A(G)), of the representation variety of G over A to be…

There are several results in the literature concerning $p$-groups $G$ with a maximal elementary abelian normal subgroup of rank $k$ due to Thompson, Mann and others. Following an idea of Sambale we obtain bounds for the number of generators…

We develop a general method for computing the homological Euler characteristic of finite index subgroups G of GL_m(O_K) where O_K is the ring of integers in a number field K. With this method we find, that for large, explicitly computed…

Let l be an odd prime and K/k a Galois extension of totally real number fields with Galois group G such that K/k_\infty and k/Q are finite. We reduce the conjectured triviality of the reduced Whitehead group SK_1(QG) of the algebra…

In math.RT/0302174 we developed a framework to study representations of groups of the form $G((t))$, where $G$ is an algebraic group over a local field $K$. The main feature of this theory is that natural representations of groups of this…

Let G be a reductive group over a commutative ring R. We say that G has isotropic rank >=n, if every normal semisimple reductive R-subgroup of G contains (G_m)^n. We prove that if G has isotropic rank >=1 and R is a regular domain…

A representation $V$ of an algebraic group $G$ induces a vector bundle $[V/G] \to BG$. The representation $V$ of $G$ is neutral if, for every twisted form $\mathcal{V} \to \mathcal{G}$ of $[V/G] \to BG$ over a field $k$, we have…

Let F be a locally compact nonarchimedean field with residue characteristic p and G the group of F-rational points of a connected split reductive group over F. For k an arbitrary field, we study the homological properties of the…

We investigate rational $G$-modules $M$ for a linear algebraic group $G$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p > 0$ using filtrations by sub-coalgebras of the coordinate algebra $k[G]$ of $G$. Even in the special case…
