The aim of this article is to classify two-dimensional split trianguline representations of p-adic fields. This is a generalization of a result of Colmez who classified two-dimensional split trianguline representations of for p≠2 by using (φ,Γ)-modules over a Robba ring. In this article, for any prime p and for any p-adic field K, we classify two-dimensional split trianguline representations of using B-pairs as defined by Berger.

Classifying spaces and moduli spaces are constructed for two invariants of isolated hypersurface singularities, for the polarized mixed Hodge structure on the middle cohomology of the Milnor fibre, and for the Brieskorn lattice as a subspace of the Gauß–Manin connection. The relations between them, period mappings for μ-constant families of singularities, and Torelli theorems are discussed.

We associate a Taylor tower supplied by the calculus of the embedding functor to the space of long knots and study its cohomology spectral sequence. The combinatorics of the spectral sequence along the line of total degree zero leads to chord diagrams with relations as in finite type knot theory. We show that the spectral sequence collapses along this line and that the Taylor tower represents a universal finite type knot invariant.

We complete our proof that given an overconvergent F-isocrystal on a variety over a field of positive characteristic, one can pull back along a suitable generically finite cover to obtain an isocrystal which extends, with logarithmic singularities and nilpotent residues, to some complete variety. We also establish an analogue for F-isocrystals overconvergent inside a partial compactification. By previous results, this reduces to solving a local problem in a neighborhood of a valuation of height 1 and residual transcendence degree zero. We do this by studying the variation of some numerical invariants attached to p-adic differential modules, analogous to the irregularity of a complex meromorphic connection. This allows for an induction on the transcendence defect of the valuation, i.e., the discrepancy between the dimension of the variety and the rational rank of the valuation.

Let R be a homogeneous ring over an infinite field, I⊂R a homogeneous ideal, and $\frak a$⊂I an ideal generated by s forms of degrees d1,…,ds so that codim($\frak a$:I)[ges ]s. We give broad conditions for when the Hilbert function of R/$\frak a$ or of R/($\frak a$:I) is determined by I and the degrees d1,…,ds. These conditions are expressed in terms of residual intersections of I, culminating in the notion of residually S2 ideals. We prove that the residually S2 property is implied by the vanishing of certain Ext modules and deduce that generic projections tend to produce ideals with this property.

In this paper, we resolve a conjecture of Schäffer on the solvability of Diophantine equations of the shape $1^k + 2^k + \dotsb + x^k = y^n$, for $1 \leq k \leq 11$. Our method, which may, with a modicum of effort, be extended to higher values of k, combines a wide variety of techniques, classical and modern, in Diophantine analysis.

The new homotopy theory of exact$\infty$-categories is introduced and employed to prove a Theorem of the Heart for algebraic $K$-theory (in the sense of Waldhausen). This implies a new compatibility between Waldhausen $K$-theory and Neeman $K$-theory. Additionally, it provides a new proof of the Dévissage and Localization theorems of Blumberg–Mandell, new models for the $G$-theory of schemes, and a proof of the invariance of $G$-theory under derived nil-thickenings.

We show that the birational classification in positive characteristic of smooth Fano threefolds $X$ with Picard number 1 is the same as in characteristic zero. In particular, there are no exotic such Fanos; as a consequence of the classification, $X$ is shown to be liftable without ramification to characteristic zero and to contain a line. The main techniques employed are those of Ekedahl and of Mori and Takeuchi.

In this paper, we show that there is an equivalence between the 2-category of smooth Deligne–Mumford stacks with torus embeddings and actions and the 1-category of stacky fans. To this end, we prove two main results. The first is related to a combinatorial aspect of the 2-category of toric algebraic stacks defined by I. Iwanari [Logarithmic geometry, minimal free resolutions and toric algebraic stacks, Preprint (2007)]; we establish an equivalence between the 2-category of toric algebraic stacks and the 1-category of stacky fans. The second result provides a geometric characterization of toric algebraic stacks. Logarithmic geometry in the sense of Fontaine–Illusie plays a central role in obtaining our results.

We apply Zagier's result for the traces of singular moduli to construct Borcherds products in higher level cases.

We establish the Langlands functoriality conjecture for the transfer from the generic spectrum of GSp(4) to GL(4) and give a criterion for the cuspidality of its image. We apply this to prove results toward the generalized Ramanujan conjecture for generic representations of GSp(4).

The main goal of this paper is to deduce (from a recent resolution of singularities result of Gabber) the following fact: (effective) Chow motives with ℤ[1/p]-coefficients over a perfect field k of characteristic p generate the category DMeffgm[1/p] (of effective geometric Voevodsky’s motives with ℤ[1/p]-coefficients). It follows that DMeffgm[1/p] can be endowed with a Chow weight structure wChow whose heart is Choweff[1/p] (weight structures were introduced in a preceding paper, where the existence of wChow for DMeffgmℚ was also proved). As shown in previous papers, this statement immediately yields the existence of a conservative weight complex functor DMeffgm[1/p]→Kb (Choweff [1/p]) (which induces an isomorphism on K0-groups), as well as the existence of canonical and functorial (Chow)-weight spectral sequences and weight filtrations for any cohomology theory on DMeffgm[1/p] . We also mention a certain Chow t-structure for DMeff−[1/p] and relate it with unramified cohomology.

In this paper we take up the problem of discussing $C R$ manifolds of arbitrary $C R$ codimension. We closely follow the general method of N. Tanaka, while concentrating our attention to the case of manifolds endowed with partial complex structures. This study required a deeper understanding of the structure of the Levi–Tanaka algebras, which are the canonical prolongation of pseudocomplex fundamental graded Lie algebras. These algebras enjoy special properties, the understanding of which provided also a way to build up several different examples and points to a rich field of investigations. Here we restrained further our consideration to the homogeneous models.

We prove a theorem on the extension of holomorphic sections of powers of adjoint bundles from submanifolds of complex codimension 1 having non-trivial normal bundle. The first such result, due to Takayama, considers the case where the canonical bundle is twisted by a line bundle that is a sum of a big and nef line bundle and a -divisor that has Kawamata log terminal singularities on the submanifold from which extension occurs. In this paper we weaken the positivity assumptions on the twisting line bundle to what we believe to be the minimal positivity hypotheses. The main new idea is an L2 extension theorem of Ohsawa–Takegoshi type, in which twisted canonical sections are extended from submanifolds with non-trivial normal bundle.

In the context of varieties of representations of arbitrary quivers, possibly carrying loops, we define a generalization of Lusztig Lagrangian subvarieties. From the combinatorial study of their irreducible components arises a structure richer than the usual Kashiwara crystals. Along with the geometric study of Nakajima quiver varieties, in the same context, this yields a notion of generalized crystals, coming with a tensor product. As an application, we define the semicanonical basis of the Hopf algebra generalizing quantum groups, which was already equipped with a canonical basis. The irreducible components of the Nakajima varieties provide the family of highest weight crystals associated to dominant weights, as in the classical case.

We establish various properties of the definition of cohomology of topological groups given by Grothendieck, Artin and Verdier in SGA4, including a Hochschild–Serre spectral sequence and a continuity theorem for compact groups. We use these properties to compute the cohomology of the Weil group of a totally imaginary field, and of the Weil-étale topology of a number ring recently introduced by Lichtenbaum (both with integer coefficients).

We prove that certain roots of the Bernstein–Sato polynomial (i.e. $b$-function) are jumping coefficients up to a sign, showing a partial converse of a theorem of L. Ein, R. Lazarsfeld, K. E. Smith, and D. Varolin. We also prove that certain roots are determined by a filtration on the Milnor cohomology, generalizing a theorem of B. Malgrange in the isolated singularity case. This implies a certain relation with the spectrum which is determined by the Hodge filtration, because the above filtration is related to the pole order filtration. For multiplier ideals we prove an explicit formula in the case of locally conical divisors along a stratification, generalizing a formula of Mustaţ̌a in the case of hyperplane arrangements. We also give another proof of a formula of U. Walther on the $b$-function of a generic hyperplane arrangement, including the multiplicity of $-1$.

In this paper, we construct a generalization of the Kohnen plus space for Hilbert modular forms of half-integral weight. The Kohnen plus space can be characterized by the eigenspace of a certain Hecke operator. It can be also characterized by the behavior of the Fourier coefficients. For example, in the parallel weight case, a modular form of weight $\kappa + (1/ 2)$ with $\xi \mathrm{th} $ Fourier coefficient $c(\xi )$ belongs to the Kohnen plus space if and only if $c(\xi )= 0$ unless $\mathop{(- 1)}\nolimits ^{\kappa } \xi $ is congruent to a square modulo $4$. The Kohnen subspace is isomorphic to a certain space of Jacobi forms. We also prove a generalization of the Kohnen–Zagier formula.

We prove that the Sebastiani–Thom isomorphism for Milnor fibres and their monodromies exists as a natural isomorphism between vanishing cycles in the derived category.
