In previous papers we formulated an analogue of the Ichino--Ikeda conjectures for Whittaker--Fourier coefficients of automorphic forms on classical group and the metaplectic group. In the latter case we reduced the conjecture to a local…

This article is an extended version of the minicourse given by the second author at the summer school of the conference "Interactions of quantum affine algebras with cluster algebras, current algebras and categorification", held in June…

Sp\"ath showed that the Alperin-McKay conjecture in the representation theory of finite groups holds if the so-called inductive Alperin-McKay condition holds for all finite simple groups. In a previous article, we showed that the…

We use our extension of the Noether-Lefschetz theorem to describe generators of the class groups at the local rings of singularities of very general hypersurfaces containing a fixed base locus. We give several applications, including (1)…

The aim of this paper is to lay the foundations for the cohomological study of Bruhat-Tits group schemes over a semi-local Dedekind ring. In particular, we obtain a simplified proof of the Grothendieck-Serre conjecture in this case and also…

This is an expanded version of my talk given at the workshop "Hot Topics: Thin Groups and Super-strong Approximation" (MSRI, Berkeley, February 6-10, 2012).

This is an introduction to the finite groups, with focus on the groups of permutations and reflections, and more generally, on the finite groups of unitary matrices. We first discuss the basics of group theory, featuring the cyclic,…

We obtain a local central limit theorem for cocycles associated with a class of non abelian and non compact group extensions of Gibbs Markov maps. This class consists of multidimensional infinite dihedral groups. Unlike in the set up of the…

Group field theories are particular quantum field theories defined on D copies of a group which reproduce spin foam amplitudes on a space-time of dimension D. In these lecture notes, we present the general construction of group field…

This is a survey article on some recent developments in the arithmetic theory of linear algebraic groups over higher-dimensional fields, written for the Notices of the AMS.

The formal degree conjecture relates the formal degree of an irreducible square-integrable representation of a reductive group over a local field to the special value of the adjoint $\gamma$-factor of its $L$-parameter. In this paper, we…

These extended notes are based on a series of six lectures presented at the summer school ``Cohomology of groups and algebraic $K$-theory'' which took place in Hangzhou, China from July 1 until July 12 in 2007. They give an introduction to…

In this paper, we study a general Syracuse problem. We give some necessary conditions concerning the existence of eventual non trivial cycles. Some properties based on linear logarithmic forms are established. New general conjectures are…

We correct an error in the paper [BLO3], and take the opportunity to examine in more detail the derived functors of inverse limits over orbit categories of (infinite) locally finite groups. The main results show how to reduce this in many…

Using the ideas of E.I. Gordon we present and farther advance an approach, based on nonstandard analysis, to simultaneous approximations of locally compact abelian groups and their duals by (hyper)finite abelian groups, as well as to…

We overview a web of conjectures about torsors under reductive groups over regular rings and survey some techniques that have been used for making progress on such problems.

A certain family of orthogonal groups (called "Clifford groups" by G. E. Wall) has arisen in a variety of different contexts in recent years. These groups have a simple definition as the automorphism groups of certain generalized…

This paper gathers four lectures, based on a mini-course at IMA in 2014, whose aim was to discuss the structure of approximate subgroups of an arbitrary group, following the works of Hrushovski and of Green, Tao and the author. Along the…

We discuss the relationship among various conjectures in the minimal model theory including the finite generation conjecture of the log canonical rings and the abundance conjecture. In particular, we show that the finite generation…

Let $S$ be a surface, $G$ a simply-connected classical group, and $G'$ the associated adjoint form of the group. In \cite{FG1}, it was shown that the moduli spaces of framed local systems $\X_{G',S}$ and $\A_{G,S}$ have the structure of…
