In this article we study integral models of Shimura varieties, called Pappas–Rapoport splitting model, for ramified P.E.L. Shimira data. We study the special fiber and some stratification of these models, in particular we show that these are smooth and the Rapoport locus and the $\mu $-ordinary locus are dense, under some condition on the ramification.

While the classification project for the simple groups of finite Morley rank is unlikely to produce a classification of the simple groups of finite Morley rank, the enterprise has already arrived at a considerably closer approximation to that ideal goal than could have been realistically anticipated, with a mix of results of several flavors, some classificatory and others more structural, which can be combined when the stars are suitably aligned to produce results at a level of generality which, in parallel areas of group theory, would normally require either some additional geometric structure, or an explicit classification. And Bruno Poizat is generally awesome, though sometimes he goes too far.

We establish the optimal order of Malliavin-type remainders in the asymptotic density approximation formula for Beurling generalized integers. Given $\alpha \in (0,1]$ and $c>0$ (with $c\leq 1$ if $\alpha =1$), a generalized number system is constructed with Riemann prime counting function $ \Pi (x)= \operatorname {\mathrm {Li}}(x)+ O(x\exp (-c \log ^{\alpha } x ) +\log _{2}x), $ and whose integer counting function satisfies the extremal oscillation estimate $N(x)=\rho x + \Omega _{\pm }(x\exp (- c'(\log x\log _{2} x)^{\frac {\alpha }{\alpha +1}})$ for any $c'>(c(\alpha +1))^{\frac {1}{\alpha +1}}$, where $\rho>0$ is its asymptotic density. In particular, this improves and extends upon the earlier work [Adv. Math. 370 (2020), Article 107240].

In this article, we study a Gysin triangle in the category of motives with modulus (Theorem 1.2). We can understand this Gysin triangle as a motivic lift of the Gysin triangle of log-crystalline cohomology due to Nakkajima and Shiho. After that we compare motives with modulus and Voevodsky motives (Corollary 1.6). The corollary implies that an object in $\operatorname {\mathbf {MDM}^{\operatorname {eff}}}$ decomposes into a p-torsion part and a Voevodsky motive part. We can understand the corollary as a motivic analogue of the relationship between rigid cohomology and log-crystalline cohomology.

Let $G$ be a semisimple Lie group with associated symmetric space $D$, and let $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}\subset G$ be a cocompact arithmetic group. Let $\mathscr{L}$ be a lattice inside a $\mathbb{Z}\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}$-module arising from a rational finite-dimensional complex representation of $G$. Bergeron and Venkatesh recently gave a precise conjecture about the growth of the order of the torsion subgroup $H_{i}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}_{k};\mathscr{L})_{\operatorname{tors}}$ as $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}_{k}$ ranges over a tower of congruence subgroups of $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}$. In particular, they conjectured that the ratio $\log |H_{i}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}_{k};\mathscr{L})_{\operatorname{tors}}|/[\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}:\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}_{k}]$ should tend to a nonzero limit if and only if $i=(\dim (D)-1)/2$ and $G$ is a group of deficiency $1$. Furthermore, they gave a precise expression for the limit. In this paper, we investigate computationally the cohomology of several (non-cocompact) arithmetic groups, including $\operatorname{GL}_{n}(\mathbb{Z})$ for $n=3,4,5$ and $\operatorname{GL}_{2}(\mathscr{O})$ for various rings of integers, and observe its growth as a function of level. In all cases where our dataset is sufficiently large, we observe excellent agreement with the same limit as in the predictions of Bergeron–Venkatesh. Our data also prompts us to make two new conjectures on the growth of torsion not covered by the Bergeron–Venkatesh conjecture.

In this paper, we formulate and present ample evidence towards the conjecture that the partition function (i.e. the exponential of the generating series of intersection numbers with monomials in psi classes) of the Pixton class on the moduli space of stable curves is the topological tau function of the noncommutative Korteweg-de Vries hierarchy, which we introduced in a previous work. The specialisation of this conjecture to the top degree part of Pixton’s class states that the partition function of the double ramification cycle is the tau function of the dispersionless limit of this hierarchy. In fact, we prove that this conjecture follows from the double ramification/Dubrovin–Zhang equivalence conjecture. We also provide several independent computational checks in support of it.

This paper introduces a generalization of the $dd^c$-condition for complex manifolds. Like the $dd^c$-condition, it admits a diverse collection of characterizations, and is hereditary under various geometric constructions. Most notably, it is an open property with respect to small deformations. The condition is satisfied by a wide range of complex manifolds, including all compact complex surfaces, and all compact Vaisman manifolds. We show there are computable invariants of a real homotopy type which in many cases prohibit it from containing any complex manifold satisfying such $dd^c$-type conditions in low degrees. This gives rise to numerous examples of almost complex manifolds which cannot be homotopy equivalent to any of these complex manifolds.

We study normal reflection subgroups of complex reflection groups. Our approach leads to a refinement of a theorem of Orlik and Solomon to the effect that the generating function for fixed-space dimension over a reflection group is a product of linear factors involving generalised exponents. Our refinement gives a uniform proof and generalisation of a recent theorem of the second author.

I construct infinitely many nondiffeomorphic examples of $5$ -dimensional contact manifolds which are tight, admit no strong fillings and do not have Giroux torsion. I obtain obstruction results for symplectic cobordisms, for which I give a proof not relying on the polyfold abstract perturbation scheme for Symplectic Field Theory (SFT). These results are part of my PhD thesis [23], and are the first applications of higher-dimensional Siefring intersection theory for holomorphic curves and hypersurfaces, as outlined in [23, 24], as a prequel to [30].

In [12], Kim and the first author proved a result comparing the virtual fundamental classes of the moduli spaces of $\varepsilon $ -stable quasimaps and $\varepsilon $ -stable $LG$ -quasimaps by studying localized Chern characters for $2$ -periodic complexes.

In this paper, we study a K-theoretic analogue of the localized Chern character map and show that for a Koszul $2$ -periodic complex it coincides with the cosection-localized Gysin map of Kiem and Li [11]. As an application, we compare the virtual structure sheaves of the moduli space of $\varepsilon $ -stable quasimaps and $\varepsilon $ -stable $LG$ -quasimaps.

These notes concern the nonlinear geometry of Banach spaces, asymptotic uniform smoothness and several Banach–Saks-like properties. We study the existence of certain concentration inequalities in asymptotically uniformly smooth Banach spaces as well as weakly sequentially continuous coarse (Lipschitz) embeddings into those spaces. Some results concerning the descriptive set theoretical complexity of those properties are also obtained. We finish the paper with a list of open problem.

For a unitary unramified genuine principal series representation of a covering group, we study the associated R-group. We prove a formula relating the R-group to the dimension of the Whittaker space for the irreducible constituents of such a principal series representation. Moreover, for certain saturated covers of a semisimple simply connected group, we also propose a simpler conjectural formula for such dimensions. This latter conjectural formula is verified in several cases, including covers of the symplectic groups.

Nous construisons un espace adapté à l’étude de l’entropie des applications méromorphes en utilisant des limites projectives. Nous en déduisons un principe variationnel pour ces applications.

In the joint work with Elmanto, Hoyois, Khan and Sosnilo, we computed infinite $\mathbb{P}^{1}$-loop spaces of motivic Thom spectra using the technique of framed correspondences. This result allows us to express non-negative $\mathbb{G}_{m}$-homotopy groups of motivic Thom spectra in terms of geometric generators and relations. Using this explicit description, we show that the unit map of the algebraic special linear cobordism spectrum induces an isomorphism on $\mathbb{G}_{m}$-homotopy sheaves.

For a prime number p and a free profinite group S on the basis X, let $S_{\left (n,p\right )}$ , $n=1,2,\dotsc ,$ be the p-Zassenhaus filtration of S. For $p>n$ , we give a word-combinatorial description of the cohomology group $H^2\left (S/S_{\left (n,p\right )},\mathbb {Z}/p\right )$ in terms of the shuffle algebra on X. We give a natural linear basis for this cohomology group, which is constructed by means of unitriangular representations arising from Lyndon words.

In this article, we construct examples of $L$-indistinguishable overconvergent eigenforms for an inner form of $\text{SL}_{2}$.

Let (X, cX) be a convex projective surface equipped with a real structure. The space of stable maps carries different real structures induced by cX and any order two element τ of permutation group Sk acting on marked points. Each corresponding real part ℝτ is a real normal projective variety. As the singular locus is of codimension bigger than two, these spaces thus carry a first Stiefel–Whitney class for which we determine a representative in the case k = c1(X)d − 1 where c1(X) is the first Chern class of X. Namely, we give a homological description of these classes in term of the real part of boundary divisors of the space of stable maps.

We study the behaviour of representation varieties of quivers with relations under the operation of node splitting. We show how splitting a node gives a correspondence between certain closed subvarieties of representation varieties for different algebras, which preserves properties like normality or having rational singularities. Furthermore, we describe how the defining equations of such closed subvarieties change under the correspondence.

By working in the ‘relative setting’ (splitting one node at a time), we demonstrate that there are many nonhereditary algebras whose irreducible components of representation varieties are all normal with rational singularities. We also obtain explicit generators of the prime defining ideals of these irreducible components. This class contains all radical square zero algebras, but also many others, as illustrated by examples throughout the paper. We also show that this is true when irreducible components are replaced by orbit closures, for a more restrictive class of algebras. Lastly, we provide applications to decompositions of moduli spaces of semistable representations of certain algebras.

We show that the theory of Galois actions of a torsion Abelian group A is companionable if and only if, for each prime p, the p-primary part of A is either finite or it coincides with the Prüfer p-group. We also provide a model-theoretic description of the model companions we obtain.

We prove that the category of (rigidified) Breuil–Kisin–Fargues modules up to isogeny is Tannakian. We then introduce and classify Breuil–Kisin–Fargues modules with complex multiplication mimicking the classical theory for rational Hodge structures. In particular, we compute an avatar of a ‘$p$-adic Serre group’.
