We describe the main questions connected to torsion subgroups in the unit group of integral group rings of finite groups and algorithmic methods to attack these questions. We then prove the Zassenhaus Conjecture for Amitsur groups and prove…
Consider a connected topological space $X$ with a point $x \in X$ and let $K$ be a field with the discrete topology. We study the Tannakian category of finite dimensional (flat) vector bundles on $X$ and its Tannakian dual $\pi_K (X,x)$…
In this paper we determine the torsion free rank of the group of endotrivial modules for any finite group of Lie type, in both defining and non-defining characteristic. On our way to proving this, we classify the maximal rank $2$ elementary…
We give a uniform construction that, on input of a recursive presentation $P$ of a group, outputs a recursive presentation of a torsion-free group, isomorphic to $P$ whenever $P$ is itself torsion-free. We use this to re-obtain a known…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field. Let $C$ be an irreducible smooth projective curve over $k$. Let $E$ be a locally free sheaf on $C$ of rank $\geq 2$. Fix an integer $d \geq 2$. Let $\mathcal{Q}$ denote the Quot scheme…
In this paper, using a generalization of the notion of Prym variety for covers of quasi-projective varieties, we prove a structure theorem for the Mordell-Weil group of the abelian varieties over function fields that are twists of Abelian…
We introduce a new class of Abelian groups which lies strictly between the classes of co-Hopfian groups and Dedekind-finite groups, calling these groups {\it Bassian-finite}. We prove the surprising fact that in the torsion case the…
We prove an arithmetic regularity lemma for stable subsets of finite abelian groups, generalising our previous result for high-dimensional vector spaces over finite fields of prime order. A qualitative version of this generalisation was…
The Johnson kernel is the subgroup of the mapping class group of a closed oriented surface that is generated by Dehn twists along separating simple closed curves. The rational abelianization of the Johnson kernel has been computed by Dimca,…
We consider the braid groups $\mathbf{B}_n(X)$ on finite simplicial complexes $X$, which are generalizations of those on both manifolds and graphs that have been studied already by many authors. We figure out the relationships between…
For quasi-projective varieties over a higher local field $k_N$, we prove that its $K$-groups, above a suitable degree, are divisible-by-finite. We also prove the finiteness of the prime-to-$p$ torsion subgroup of certain higher Chow groups…
Using methods of p-adic analysis we give a different proof of Burnside's problem for automorphisms of quasiprojective varieties X defined over a field of characteristic 0. More precisely, we show that any finitely generated torsion subgroup…
Let $S$ be a certain affine algebraic surface over $\mathbb{Q}$ such that it admits a regular map to $\mathbb{A}^2/\mathbb{Q}$. We show that any non-trivial torsion line bundle in the relative Picard group $Pic^0\left(S/\mathbb{A}^2\right)$…
Let $Y$ be a principal homogeneous space of an abelian surface, or a K3 surface, over a finitely generated extension of $\mathbb{Q}$. In 2008, Skorobogatov and Zarhin showed that the Brauer group modulo algebraic classes $\text{Br}\, Y/…
Let $A$ be a 2-dimensional abelian variety defined over a number field $K$. Fix a prime number $\ell$ and suppose $\#A(\mathbb{F}_p) \equiv 0 \pmod{\ell^2}$ for a set of primes $\mathfrak{p} \subset \mathcal{O}_K$ of density 1. When…
Let X be a separated scheme of finite type over an algebraically closed field k and let m be a natural number. By an explicit geometric construction using torsors we construct a pairing between the first mod m Suslin homology and the first…
We investigate locally closed subspaces of projectivized strata of abelian differentials which classify trigonal curves with canonical divisor a multiple of a trigonal divisor. We describe their orbifold structure using linear systems on…
Let $R$ be a discrete valuation ring of field of fractions $K$ and of residue field $k$ of characteristic $p > 0$. In an earlier work, we studied the question of extending torsors on $K$-curves into torsors over $R$-regular models of the…
This paper is the sequel of our paper "Arithmetic height functions over finitely generated fields" (cf. math.NT/9809016). In this paper, we define the canonical height of subvarieties of an abelian variety over a finitely generated field…
In 1960 Fuchs posed the problem of characterizing the groups which are the groups of units of commutative rings. In the following years, some partial answers have been given to this question in particular cases. In this paper we address…
