Galois representations attached to elliptic curves with complex multiplication Algebra Number Theory (IF 1.061) Pub Date : 2022-08-05 Álvaro Lozano-Robledo
We give an explicit classification of the possible p-adic Galois representations that are attached to elliptic curves E with CM defined over ℚ(j(E)). More precisely, let K be an imaginary quadratic field, and let 𝒪K,f be an order in K of conductor f ≥ 1. Let E be an elliptic curve with CM by 𝒪K,f, such that E is defined by a model over ℚ(j(E)). Let p ≥ 2 be a prime, let Gℚ(j(E)) be the absolute Galois

Snowflake modules and Enright functor for Kac–Moody superalgebras Algebra Number Theory (IF 1.061) Pub Date : 2022-08-05 Maria Gorelik, Vera Serganova
We introduce a class of modules over Kac–Moody superalgebras; we call these modules snowflake modules. These modules are characterized by invariance property of their characters with respect to a certain subgroup of the Weyl group. Examples of snowflake modules appear as admissible modules in representation theory of affine vertex algebras and in the classification of bounded weight modules. Using

Parametrizing roots of polynomial congruences Algebra Number Theory (IF 1.061) Pub Date : 2022-08-05 Matthew Welsh
We use the arithmetic of ideals in orders to parametrize the roots μ(mod m) of the polynomial congruence F(μ) ≡ 0(mod m), F(X) ∈ ℤ[X] monic, irreducible and degree d. Our parametrization generalizes Gauss’s classic parametrization of the roots of quadratic congruences using binary quadratic forms, which had previously only been extended to the cubic polynomial F(X) = X3 − 2. We show that only a special

Stability of normal bundles of space curves Algebra Number Theory (IF 1.061) Pub Date : 2022-08-05 Izzet Coskun, Eric Larson, Isabel Vogt
We prove that the normal bundle of a general Brill–Noether space curve of degree d and genus g ≥ 2 is stable if and only if (d,g)∉{(5,2),(6,4)}. When g ≤ 1 and the characteristic of the ground field is zero, it is classical that the normal bundle is strictly semistable. We show that this still holds in positive characteristic except when the characteristic is 2, the genus is 0 and the degree is even

The integral monodromy of isolated quasihomogeneous singularities Algebra Number Theory (IF 1.061) Pub Date : 2022-08-05 Claus Hertling, Makiko Mase
The integral monodromy on the Milnor lattice of an isolated quasihomogeneous singularity is subject of an almost untouched conjecture of Orlik from 1972. We prove this conjecture for all iterated Thom–Sebastiani sums of chain type singularities and cycle type singularities. The main part of the paper is purely algebraic. It provides tools for dealing with sums and tensor products of ℤ-lattices with

The arithmetic Kuznetsov formula on GL(3), II: The general case Algebra Number Theory (IF 1.061) Pub Date : 2022-07-09 Jack Buttcane
We obtain the last of the standard Kuznetsov formulas for SL (3, ℤ). In the previous paper, we were able to exploit the relationship between the positive-sign Bessel function and the Whittaker function to apply Wallach’s Whittaker expansion; now we demonstrate the expansion of functions into Bessel functions for all four signs, generalizing Wallach’s theorem for SL (3). As applications, we again

Integral period relations and congruences Algebra Number Theory (IF 1.061) Pub Date : 2022-07-09 Jacques Tilouine, Eric Urban
Under relatively mild and natural conditions, we establish integral period relations for the (real or imaginary) quadratic base change of an elliptic cusp form. This answers a conjecture of Hida regarding the congruence ideal controlling the congruences between this base change and other eigenforms which are not base change. As a corollary, we establish the Bloch–Kato conjecture for adjoint modular

In this paper, we study the representations of the periplectic Lie superalgebra using the Duflo–Serganova functor. Given a simple 𝔭(n)-module L and a certain odd element x ∈ 𝔭(n) of rank 1, we give an explicit description of the composition factors of the 𝔭(n−1)-module DS x(L), which is defined as the homology of the complex ΠM →xM →xΠM, where Π denotes the parity-change functor (−) ⊗ ℂ0|1.

We define the covering gonality and separable covering gonality of varieties over arbitrary fields, generalizing the definition given by Bastianelli, De Poi, Ein, Lazarsfeld, and Ullery for complex varieties. We show that, over an algebraically closed field, a smooth multidegree (d1,… ,dk) complete intersection in ℙN has separable covering gonality at least d − N + 1, where d = d1 + ⋯ + dk. We also

Using twisted sheaves, formal-local methods, and elementary transformations we show that separated algebraic spaces which are constructed as pushouts or contractions (of curves) have enough Azumaya algebras. This implies (1) Under mild hypothesis, every cohomological Brauer class is representable by an Azumaya algebra away from a closed subset of codimension ≥ 3, generalizing an early result of Grothendieck

Rank 2 local systems, Barsotti–Tate groups, and Shimura curves Algebra Number Theory (IF 1.061) Pub Date : 2022-04-27 Raju Krishnamoorthy
We construct a descent-of-scalars criterion for K-linear abelian categories. Using advances in the Langlands correspondence due to Abe, we build a correspondence between certain rank 2 local systems and certain Barsotti–Tate groups on complete curves over a finite field. We conjecture that such Barsotti–Tate groups “come from” a family of fake elliptic curves. As an application of these ideas, we provide

Formal groups and lifts of the field of norms Algebra Number Theory (IF 1.061) Pub Date : 2022-04-27 Léo Poyeton
Let K be a finite extension of ℚp. The field of norms of a strictly APF extension K∞∕K is a local field of characteristic p equipped with an action of Gal (K∞∕K). When can we lift this action to characteristic zero, along with a compatible Frobenius map? In this article, we explain what we mean by lifting the field of norms, explain its relevance to the theory of (φ,Γ)-modules, and show that under

Let K be a characteristic zero algebraic function field with a valuation ν. Let L be a finite extension of K and ω be an extension of ν to L. We establish that the valuation ring V ω of ω is essentially finitely generated over the valuation ring V ν of ν if and only if the initial index 𝜖(ω|ν) is equal to the ramification index e(ω|ν) of the extension. This gives a positive answer, for characteristic

Descent on elliptic surfaces and arithmetic bounds for the Mordell–Weil rank Algebra Number Theory (IF 1.061) Pub Date : 2022-04-27 Jean Gillibert, Aaron Levin
We introduce the use of p-descent techniques for elliptic surfaces over a perfect field of characteristic not 2 or 3. Under mild hypotheses, we obtain an upper bound for the rank of a nonconstant elliptic surface. When p = 2, this bound is an arithmetic refinement of a well-known geometric bound for the rank deduced from Igusa’s inequality. This answers a question raised by Ulmer. We give some applications

For a regular scheme and a prime number p, we define the FW-cotangent bundle as a vector bundle on the closed subscheme defined by p = 0, under a certain finiteness condition. For a constructible complex on the étale site of the scheme, we introduce the condition to be microsupported on a closed conical subset in the FW-cotangent bundle. At the end of the article, we compute the singular supports in

We study the same construction for a ring over ℤ(p) and prove a regularity criterion. For a local ring, the tensor product with the residue field is constructed in a different way by O. Gabber and L.

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p and X the projective line over k with three points removed. We investigate which finite groups G can arise as the monodromy group of finite étale covers of X that are tamely ramified over the three removed points. This provides new information about the tame fundamental group of the projective line. In particular, we show that for each prime

On the Grothendieck-Serre conjecture about principal bundles and its generalizations Algebra Number Theory (IF 1.061) Pub Date : 2022-04-27 Roman Fedorov
Let U be a regular connected affine semilocal scheme over a field k. Let G be a reductive group scheme over U. Assuming that G has an appropriate parabolic subgroup scheme, we prove the following statement. Given an affine k-scheme W, a principal G-bundle over W ×kU is trivial if it is trivial over the generic fiber of the projection W ×kU → U. We also simplify the proof of the Grothendieck–Serre conjecture:

Noncommutative hypersurfaces, in particular, noncommutative quadric hypersurfaces are major objects of study in noncommutative algebraic geometry. In the commutative case, Knörrer’s periodicity theorem is a powerful tool to study Cohen–Macaulay representation theory since it reduces the number of variables in computing the stable category CM ¯(A) of maximal Cohen–Macaulay modules over a hypersurface

We prove that, in certain situations, intersection numbers on formal schemes that come in profinite families vary locally constantly in the parameter. To this end, we define the product S × M of a profinite set S with a locally noetherian formal scheme M and study intersections thereon. Our application is to the arithmetic fundamental lemma of W. Zhang where the result helps to overcome a restriction

We compute the relative orbifold Gromov–Witten invariants of [ℂ2∕ℤn+1] × ℙ1 with respect to vertical fibers. Via a vanishing property of the Hurwitz–Hodge bundle, 2-point rubber invariants are calculated explicitly using Pixton’s formula for the double ramification cycle, and the orbifold quantum Riemann–Roch. As a result parallel to its crepant resolution counterpart for 𝒜n, the GW/DT/Hilb/Sym correspondence

Sato–Tate equidistribution for families of automorphic representations through the stable trace formula Algebra Number Theory (IF 1.061) Pub Date : 2022-02-22 Rahul Dalal
Shin and Templier studied families of automorphic representations with local restrictions: roughly, Archimedean components contained in a fixed L-packet of discrete series and non-Archimedean components ramified only up to a fixed level. They computed limiting statistics of local components as either the weight of the L-packet or level went to infinity. We extend their weight-aspect results to families

We show that the complete symmetric polynomials are dual generators of compressed artinian Gorenstein algebras satisfying the strong Lefschetz property. This is the first example of an explicit dual form with these properties. For complete symmetric forms of any degree in any number of variables, we provide an upper bound for the Waring rank by establishing an explicit power sum decomposition. Moreover

Cohomology of cluster varieties, I: Locally acyclic case Algebra Number Theory (IF 1.061) Pub Date : 2022-02-22 Thomas Lam, David E. Speyer
We initiate a systematic study of the cohomology of cluster varieties.

For cluster varieties satisfying the Louise property and of full rank, we show that the cohomology satisfies the curious Lefschetz property of Hausel and Rodriguez-Villegas

In particular, we show that the set of solutions of a “general” differential equation of order two and of degree d ≥ 3 in a differentially closed field is strongly minimal and disintegrated (in other words, is strongly minimal with trivial forking geometry). We also give two

Using a local monomialization result of Knaf and Kuhlmann, which was generalized by Cutkosky, we prove that the valuation ring of an Abhyankar valuation of a function field over an F-finite ground field of prime characteristic is Frobenius split. We show that a Frobenius splitting of a sufficiently well-behaved center lifts to a Frobenius splitting of the valuation ring. We also investigate properties

Malle proposed a conjecture for counting the number of G-extensions L∕K with discriminant bounded above by X, denoted N(K,G;X), where G is a fixed transitive subgroup G ⊂ Sn and X tends towards infinity.

The purpose of this article is to compare several versions of bivariant algebraic cobordism constructed previously by the author and others. In particular, we show that a simple construction based on the universal precobordism theory of Annala and Yokura agrees with the more complicated theory of bivariant derived algebraic cobordism constructed earlier by the author, and that both of these theories

Let ℓ≠3 be a prime. We show that there are only finitely many cyclic number fields F of degree ℓ for which the unit equation λ + μ = 1,λ,μ ∈𝒪F× has solutions. Our result is effective. For example, we deduce that the only cyclic quintic number field for which the unit equation has solutions is ℚ(ζ11)+.

We investigate integrality and divisibility properties of Fourier coefficients of meromorphic modular forms of weight $2k$ associated to positive definite integral binary quadratic forms. For example, we show that if there are no non-trivial cusp forms of weight $2k$, then the $n$-th coefficients of these meromorphic modular forms are divisible by $n^{k-1}$ for every natural number $n$. Moreover, we

Deformations of ordinary varieties of K3 type can be described in terms of displays by recent work of Langer-Zink. We extend this to the general (non-ordinary) case using displays with $G$-structure for a reductive group $G$. As a basis we suggest a modified definition of the tensor category of displays and variants which is similar to the Frobenius gauges of Fontaine-Jannsen.

We study the fine distribution of lattice points lying on expanding circles in the hyperbolic plane $\mathbb{H}$. The angles of lattice points arising from the orbit of the modular group $PSL_{2}(\mathbb{Z})$, and lying on hyperbolic circles, are shown to be equidistributed for generic radii. However, the angles fail to equidistribute on a thin set of exceptional radii, even in the presence of growing

We establish the analytic Hasse principle for Diophantine systems consisting of one diagonal form of degree $k$ and one general form of degree $d$, where $d$ is smaller than $k$. By employing a hybrid method that combines ideas from the study of general forms with techniques adapted to the diagonal case, we are able to obtain bounds that grow exponentially in $d$ but only quadratically in $k$, reflecting

Let K be a number field, and let E∕K be an elliptic curve over K. The Mordell–Weil theorem asserts that the K-rational points E(K) of E form a finitely generated abelian group. In this work, we complete the classification of the finite groups which appear as the torsion subgroup of E(K) for K a cubic number field. To do so, we determine the cubic points on the modular curves X1(N) for N = 21,22,24

Wild ramification, nearby cycle complexes, and characteristic cycles of ℓ-adic sheaves Algebra Number Theory (IF 1.061) Pub Date : 2021-10-16 Hiroki Kato
We prove a purely local form of a result of Saito and Yatagawa. They proved that the characteristic cycle of a constructible étale sheaf is determined by wild ramification of the sheaf along the boundary of a compactification. But they had to consider ramification at all the points of the compactification. We give a pointwise result, that is, we prove that the characteristic cycle of a constructible
