Given two elliptic curves and the degree of an isogeny between them, finding the isogeny is believed to be a difficult problem—upon which rests the security of nearly any isogeny-based scheme. If, however, to the data above we add information about the beh ...
Let G be a finite subgroup of SU(4) such that its elements have age at most one. In the first part of this paper, we define K-theoretic stable pair invariants on a crepant resolution of the affine quotient C4/G, and conjecture a closed formula for their ge ...
Let h be a connective homology theory. We construct a functorial relative plus construction as a Bousfield localization functor in the category of maps of spaces. It allows us to associate to a pair (X,H), consisting of a connected space X and an hperfect ...
The Cremona group is the group of birational transformations of the complex projective plane. In this paper we classify its subgroups that consist only of elliptic elements using elementary model theory. This yields in particular a description of the struc ...
We show that the finitely generated simple left orderable groups G(rho) constructed by the first two authors in Hyde and Lodha [Finitely generated infinite simple groups of homeomorphisms of the real line. Invent. Math. (2019), doi:10.1007/s00222-01900880- ...
We present a self-contained proof of the following famous extension theorem due to Carl Herz. A closed subgroup H of a locally compact group G is a set of p-synthesis in G if and only if, for every u is an element of A(p)(H) boolean AND C-00(H) and for eve ...
Ghys and Sergiescu proved in the 1980s that Thompson's group T, and hence F, admits actions by C-infinity diffeomorphisms of the circle. They proved that the standard actions of these groups are topologically conjugate to a group of C-infinity diffeomorphi ...
We examine how, in prime characteristic p, the group of endotrivial modules of a finite group G and the group of endotrivial modules of a quotient of G modulo a normal subgroup of order prime to p are related. There is always an inflation map, but examples ...
We prove that a closed subgroup H of a locally compact group G is a set of p-uniqueness (1 < p < infinity) if and only if H is locally negligible. We also obtain the inverse projection theorem for sets of p-uniqueness. ...
The Tarski number of a nonamenable group is the smallest number of pieces needed for a paradoxical decomposition of the group. Nonamenable groups of piecewise projective homeomorphisms were introduced in [N. Monod, Groups of piecewise projective homeomorph ...
We prove formulas for power moments for point counts of elliptic curves over a finite field k such that the groups of k-points of the curves contain a chosen subgroup. These formulas express the moments in terms of traces of Hecke operators for certain con ...
It is well-known that a finite group possesses a universal central extension if and only if it is a perfect group. Similarly, given a prime number p, we show that a finite group possesses a universal p′-central extension if and only if the p′-part of its a ...
A genome and physiological comparison was made of the type strains of Desulfotomaculum species belonging to subgroup 1a and of 'Desulfotomaculum reducens' strain MI-1. Phenotypically, 'Desulfotomaculum reducens' strain MI-1 can be distinguished from the ot ...
For Figa-Talamanca-Herz algebras A(p)(G), 1 < p < infinity, of a locally compact group G and a closed subgroup H of G, we prove an injection theorem for local Ditkin sets. ...
A linear algebraic group G defined over a field k is called special if every G-torsor over every field extension of k is trivial. In 1958 Grothendieck classified special groups in the case where the base field is algebraically closed. In this paper we desc ...
Motivated by the Benjamini-Schramm non-unicity of percolation conjecture we study the following question. For a given finitely generated nonamenable group Gamma, does there exist a generating set S such that the Cayley graph (Gamma, S), without loops and m ...
For G a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0, we determine the irreducible representations ρ:G→I(V), where I(V) denotes one of the classical groups SL(V), Sp(V), SO(V), such that ρ sends some distinguished unipotent ...
We address two questions of Simon Thomas. First, we show that for any n >= 3 one can find a four-generated free subgroup of SLn (Z) which is profinitely dense. More generally, we show that an arithmetic group Gamma that admits the congruence subgroup prope ...
We introduce a relative fixed point property for subgroups of a locally compact group, which we call relative amenability. It is a priori weaker than amenability. We establish equivalent conditions, related among others to a problem studied by Reiter in 19 ...
It is a well-known open problem since the 1970s whether a finitely generated perfect group can be normally generated by a single element or not. We prove that the topological version of this problem has an affirmative answer as long as we exclude infinite ...
