We prove that if $p \equiv 4,7 \pmod{9}$ is prime and $3$ is not a cube modulo $p$, then both of the equations $x^3+y^3=p$ and $x^3+y^3=p^2$ have a solution with $x,y \in \mathbb{Q}$.

In a previous paper, the third author proved that finite-degree polynomial functors over infinite fields are topologically Noetherian. In this paper, we prove that the same holds for polynomial functors from free $R$-modules to finitely…

This paper deals with symplectic varieties which do not have symplectic resolutions. Some moduli spaces of semi-stable torsion-free sheaves on a K3 surface, and symplectic V-manifolds are such varieties. We shall prove local Torelli theorem…

Noncommutative IR singularities and UV/IR mixing in relation with the Goldstone theorem for complex scalar field theory are investigated. The classical model has two coupling constants, $\lambda_1$ and $\lambda_2$, associated to the two…

We construct a non-linear theory of interacting spin-2 fields that is invariant under the partially massless (PM) symmetry to all orders. This theory is based on the SO(1,5) group, in analogy with the SO(2,4) formulation of conformal…

We explore a relationship between topological properties of orbits of 2-cycles in the symplectomorphism group Symp(M) and the existence of rational curves in M. Under the absence of rational curves hypothesis, we show that evaluation map…

It is shown that the first and second homotopy groups of the $\eta$-inverted sphere spectrum over a field of characteristic not two are zero. A cell presentation of higher Witt theory is given as well, at least over the complex numbers.

Let $K(\mathbb{F}_q)$ be the algebraic $K$-theory spectrum of the finite field with $q$ elements and let $p \geq 5$ be a prime number coprime to $q$. In this paper we study the mod $p$ and $v_1$ topological Hochschild homology of…

We show that for any k>1, stratified sets of finite complexity are insufficient to realize all homology classes of codimension k in all smooth manifolds. We also prove a similar result concerning smooth generic maps whose double-point sets…

We prove that the Morava-$K$-theory-based Eilenberg-Moore spectral sequence has good convergence properties whenever the base space is a $p$-local finite Postnikov system with vanishing $(n+1)$st homotopy group.

We introduce $k$-robust clique complexes, a family of simplicial complexes that generalizes the traditional clique complex. Here, a subset of vertices forms a simplex provided it does not contain an independent set of size $k$. We…

We address the problem of UV/IR mixing in noncommutative quantum field theories from the perspective of braided $L_\infty$-structures and the Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism. We describe the example of braided noncommutative scalar field…

The chromatic spectral sequence is introduced in \cite{mrw} to compute the $E_2$-term of the \ANSS\ for computing the stable homotopy groups of spheres. The $E_1$-term $E_1^{s,t}(k)$ of the spectral sequence is an Ext group of…

In the late 80s, V.~Arnold and V.~Vassiliev initiated the topological study of the space of real univariate polynomials of a given degree which have no real roots of multiplicity exceeding a given positive integer. Expanding their studies,…

Symmetric spectra were introduced by Jeff Smith as a symmetric monoidal category of spectra. In this paper, a detection functor is defined which detects stable equivalences of symmetric spectra. This detection functor is useful because the…

We compute topological Hochschild homology of $\mathbb{E}_3$-MU-algebra forms of the second truncated Brown-Peterson spectrum with Adams summand coefficients at $p=2$ and conditionally at arbitrary primes. We also provide a new…

We extend the Zariski topology on simp A, the finite dimensional simple A-representations, to a non-commutative topology (in the sense of Fred Van Oystaeyen) on rep A, all finite dimensional A-representations, using Jordan-Holder…

Let $S^{2n+1}\{p\}$ denote the homotopy fibre of the degree $p$ self map of $S^{2n+1}$. For primes $p \ge 5$, work of Selick shows that $S^{2n+1}\{p\}$ admits a nontrivial loop space decomposition if and only if $n=1$ or $p$.…

The Bousfield-Kan (or unstable Adams) spectral sequence can be constructed for various homology theories such as Brown-Peterson homology theory BP, Johnson-Wilson theory $E(n)$, or Morava $E$-theory $E_n$. For nice spaces the $E_2$-term is…

We consider dissipative Schroedinger operators of the form $H=-\Delta+V(x)$ on $L^2(\mathbb R^3)$, with $V(x)$ a complex, bounded and decaying potential with a non-positive imaginary part. We prove a topological version of Levinson's…
