We provide a class of commutative Noetherian domains $R$ of dimension $d$ such that every finitely generated projective $R$-module $P$ of rank $d$ splits off a free summand of rank one. On this class, we also show that $P$ is cancellative.…
In this paper we prove that every $2$-generator finite $p$-group $G$ has a non-inner automorphism of order $p$ leaving $G^p\gamma_4(G)$ elementwise fixed ($p\ge 5$). Moreover, we prove a $2$-generator finite $3$-group satisfying…
We study the finitely generated abelian group $T(G)$ of endo-trivial $kG$-modules where $kG$ is the group algebra of a finite group $G$ over a field of characteristic $p>0$. When the representation type of the group algebra is not wild, the…
Let G be a compact p-adic analytic group. We study K-theoretic questions related to the representation theory of the completed group algebra kG of G with coefficients in a finite field k of characteristic p. We show that if M is a finitely…
We develop the theory of Hopf bimodules for a finite rigid tensor category C. Then we use this theory to define a distinguished invertible object D of C and an isomorphism of tensor functors ?^{**} and D tensor ^{**}? tensor D^{-1}. This…
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…
A duality theorem for the stable module category of representations of a finite group scheme is proved. One of its consequences is an analogue of Serre duality, and the existence of Auslander-Reiten triangles for the $\mathfrak{p}$-local…
For any type of fundamental groupoid scheme, we construct an algebraic cohomology theory for varieties with coefficients in the base field. This is a minor variant of \'etale cohomology, involving neither de Rham complexes nor…
We study fundamental groups of non compact Riemannian manifolds. We find conditions which ensure that the fundamental group is trivial, finite or finitely generated.
We explore applications of the celebrated construction of the Milnor connecting homomorphism from the odd to the even K-groups in the context of Hopf--Galois theory. For a finitely generated projective module associated to any piecewise…
Let $g$ be a principal modulus with rational Fourier coefficients for a discrete subgroup of $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{R})$ between $\Gamma(N)$ or $\Gamma_0(N)^\dag$ for a positive integer $N$. Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field. We give…
Let $(\mathcal{G},\otimes)$ be any closed symmetric monoidal Grothendieck category. We show that K-flat covers exist universally in the category of chain complexes and that the Verdier quotient of $K(\mathcal{G})$ by the K-flat complexes is…
We introduce the stable module $\infty$-category for groups of type $\Phi$ as an enhancement of the stable category defined by N. Mazza and P. Symonds. For groups of type $\Phi$ which act on a tree, we show that the stable module…
We prove some conditions for higher dimensional algebraic fibering of pro-$p$ group extensions and we establish corollaries about incoherence of pro-$p$ groups. In particular, if $G = K \rtimes \Gamma$ is a pro-$p$ group, $\Gamma$ a…
We show that certain subrings of the cohomology of a finite p-group P may be realised as the images of restriction from suitable virtually free groups. We deduce that the cohomology of P is a finite module for any such subring. Examples…
Let k be the field with p>0 elements, and let G be a finite group. By exhibiting an E-infinity-operad action on Hom(P,k) for a complete projective resolution P of the trivial kG-module k, we obtain power operations of Dyer-Lashof type on…
Let $G$ be a finite simple group. In this paper we consider the existence of small subsets $A$ of $G$ with the property that, if $y \in G$ is chosen uniformly at random, then with high probability $y$ invariably generates $G$ together with…
Let M be a smooth and compact moduli space of stable coherent sheaves on a projective surface S with an effective (or trivial) anti-canonical line bundle. We find generators for the cohomology ring of M, with integral coefficients. When S…
Asymptotic properties of finitely generated subgroups of free groups, and of finite group presentations, can be considered in several fashions, depending on the way these objects are represented and on the distribution assumed on these…
We present an algorithm for explicitly computing the number of generators of the stable cohomology algebra of any rationally smooth partial toroidal compactification of ${\mathcal A}_g$, satisfying certain additivity and finiteness…
