We study $(\sigma,\tau)$-derivations of a group ring $RG$ where $G$ is a group with center having finite index in $G$ and $R$ is a semiprime ring with $1$ such that either $R$ has no torsion elements or that if $R$ has $p$-torsion elements,…

In this work, we identify a certain family of higher-dimensional formal groups over the ring of $p$-adic integers such that any two formal groups in that class coincide if they share infinitely many torsion points. As a useful application,…

This is the text accompanying my Bourbaki seminar on the work of Einsiedler and Lindenstrauss on joinings. The first five sections surveys their proof of the classification of joinings of higher-rank torus actions on arithmetic quotients of…

Assuming the classical Farrell-Jones conjecture we produce an explicit (commutative) group ring $R$ and a thick subcategory $\mathsf{C}$ of perfect $R$-complexes such that the Waldhausen $K$-theory space $\mathrm{K}(\mathsf{C})$ is…

By the Telescope Conjecture for Module Categories, we mean the following claim: "Let R be any ring and (A, B) be a hereditary cotorsion pair in Mod-R with A and B closed under direct limits. Then (A, B) is of finite type." We prove a…

We give a simple combinatorial proof that the rotation number for each element in Thompson's group ${\bf T}$ is rational.

Let $Q$ be a conjugacy closed loop, and $N(Q)$ its nucleus. Then $Z(N(Q))$ contains all associators of elements of $Q$. If in addition $Q$ is diassociative (i.e., an extra loop), then all these associators have order 2. If $Q$ is…

We prove Thurston's bending measure conjecture for quasifuchsian once punctured torus groups. The conjecture states that the bending measures of the two components of the convex hull boundary uniquely determine the group.

For G = PSL(2,p^f) denote by ZG the integral group ring, by V(ZG) the group of normalized units of ZG and let r be a prime different from p. Using the so called HeLP-method we prove, that units of r-power order in V(ZG) are rationally…

In this note we formulate a conjecture about two group ring identities and prove that it would imply the Alon-Jaeger-Tarsi conjecture.

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…

Abstract. We address the conjecture which states that an intersection of parabolic subgroups of an Artin-Tits group is a parabolic subgroup. We prove that the conjecture is equivalent to a, a priori, weaker conjecture. We also prove the…

Four-graviton couplings in the low energy effective action of type II string vacua compactified on tori are strongly constrained by supersymmetry and U-duality. While the $R^4$ and $D^4 R^4$ couplings are known exactly in terms of…

This is a first instalment of much larger work about relations between birational geometry and moduli of triples. The extraction of work is mainly related to Theorem 6. It is a weak version of Kawamata's Conjecture 1 and an important…

In this thesis, we aim to develop p-adic analogs of known results for classical periods, focusing specifically on 1-motives. We establish an integration theory for 1-motives with good reductions, which generalizes the…

We formulate a strong positivity conjecture on characters afforded by the Alvis-Curtis dual of the intersection cohomology of Deligne-Lusztig varieties. This conjecture provides a powerful tool to determine decomposition numbers of…

We report on some computational experiments related to the trivial units property and unique product property for group rings of torsion-free groups. These properties are related to Kaplansky's unit and zero-divisor conjectures. Our…

Exceptional groups of type $E_6$ contain dual pairs where one member is $\mathrm{Spin}(8)$, and the other is $T\rtimes \mathbb Z/2\mathbb Z$, where $T$ is a two-dimensional torus and the non-trivial element in $\mathbb Z/2\mathbb Z$ acts on…

We prove the Weinstein conjecture for non-trivial contact connected sums under either of two topological conditions: non-trivial fundamental group or torsion-free homology.

We prove a strengthening of the "reciprocity conjecture" of Khare and Wintenberger. The input to the original conjecture is an odd prime p, a CM number field F containing the pth roots of unity, and a pair of primes of the maximal totally…
