We study the completion of a group relative to a Zariski dense representation in a reductive algebraic group over a field $k$. The characteristic zero case was worked out previously by R. Hain; we extend his results to arbitrary…
We compute the completion of the special linear group over the coordinate ring of a curve over a number field $k$ relative to its representation in $\slnk$, and relate this to the study of $K_2$ of the curve.
For N=5, 6 and 7, using the classification of perfect quadratic forms, we compute the homology of the Voronoi cell complexes attached to the modular groups SL_N(\Z) and GL_N(\Z). From this we deduce the rational cohomology of those groups.
The Hodge de Rham theory of relative Malcev completion is developed in this paper. In the special case where one takes the corresponding reductive group to be trivial, one recovers Chen's de Rham theory of the fundamental group and the…
Two standard invariants used to study the fundamental group G of the complement X of a hyperplane arrangement are the Malcev completion of G and the cohomology groups of X with coefficients in rank one local systems. In this paper, we…
We show that the associated Lie algebra of the Malcev $\mathbb{Q}$-completion of the lamplighter group is the pronilpotent completion of the lamplighter Lie algebra. We also prove that the homology of this completed Lie algebra is of…
Some properties of [L]-homotopy group for finite complex L are investigated. It is proved that for complex L whose extension type lying between Sn and Sn+1 n-th [L]-homotopy group of Sn is isomorphic to Z.
We construct the finite-dimensional continuous complex representations of $\mathrm{SL}_2$ over compact discrete valuation rings of even residual characteristic. We also prove that the complex group algebras of $\mathrm{SL}_2$ over finite…
The powerful group theoretical formalism of potential algebras is extended to non-Hermitian Hamiltonians with real eigenvalues by complexifying so(2,1), thereby getting the complex algebra sl(2,\C) or $A_1$. This leads to new types of both…
We give several resolutions of the Steinberg representation St_n for the general linear group over a principal ideal domain, in particular over Z. We compare them, and use these results to prove that the computations in [AGM4] are…
In this paper we study the proalgebraic completion of mapping class relative to their maps to the symplectic group. The main result is that the natural map from the unipotent (a.k.a. Malcev) completion of the Torelli group to the…
We study equivariant Hermitian K-theory for representations of symplectic groups, especially $\mathrm{SL}_2$. The results are used to establish an Atiyah-Segal completion theorem for Hermitian $K$-theory and symplectic groups.
The homological properties of localizations and completions of metabelian groups are studied. It is shown that, for $R=\mathbb Q$ or $R=\mathbb Z/n$ and a finitely presented metabelian group $G$, the natural map from $G$ to its…
We prove analogues of the fundamental theorem of algebraic K-theory for the second and third homology of SL_2 over an infinite field k. The statements involve Milnor-Witt K-theory and scissors congruence groups. We use these results to…
We complete the classification of the finite special linear groups $\SL_n(q)$ which are $(2,3)$-generated, i.e., which are generated by an involution and an element of order $3$. This also gives the classification of the finite simple…
We develop an explicit algebriac de Rham theory for relative completion of $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$. This allows the construction of iterated integrals involving modular forms of the second kind, generalizing iterated integrals of…
We prove that a large class of metrizable group topologies for subgroups of $\mathbb{R}^n$ and the completions of the subgroups are locally isometric to, respectively, metrizable group topologies for $\mathbb{Z}$ and their completions,…
The aim of this note is to completely determine the second homology group of the special queer Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{sq}_n(R)$ coordinatized by a unital associative superalgebra $R$, which will be achieved via an isomorphism between…
We consider conformal actions of simple Lie groups on compact Lorentzian manifolds. Mainly motivated by the Lorentzian version of a conjecture of Lichnerowicz, we establish the alternative: Either the group acts isometrically for some…
We present a full list of all representations of the special linear group $\mathrm{SL}_n$ over the complex numbers with complete intersection invariant ring, completing the classification of Shmelkin. For this task, we combine three…
