Quadratic base change of θ10

In case ofGL _n overp-adic fields, it is known that Shintani base change is well behaved. However, things are not so simple for general reductive groups. In the first part of this paper, we present a counterexample to the existence of quadratic base change descent for some Galois invariant representations. These are representations of type θ₁₀. In the second part, we compute the localL-factor of θ₁₀. Unlike many other supercuspidal representations, we find that theL-factor of θ₁₀ has two poles. Finally, we discuss these two results in relation to the local Langlands correspondence. The authors are supported in part by NSF grants.     

Global dimension and left derived functors of Hom

It is well known that the right global dimension of a ring R is usually computed by the right derived functors of Hom and the left projective resolutions of right R-modules. In this paper, for a left coherent and right perfect ring R, we characterize the right global dimension of R, from another point of view, using the left derived functors of Hom and the right projective resolutions of right R-modules. It is shown that rD(R)≤n (n≥2) if and only if the gl right Proj-dim MR≤n - 2 if and only if Extn-1(N, M) = 0 for all right R-modules N and M if and only if every (n - 2)th Proj-cosyzygy of a right R-module has a projective envelope with the unique mapping property. It is also proved that rD(R)≤n (n≥1) if and only if every (n-1)th Proj-cosyzygy of a right R-module has an epic projective envelope if and only if every nth Vroj-cosyzygy of a right R-module is projective. As corollaries, the right hereditary rings and the rings R with rD(R)≤2 are characterized.     

On pre-Λ-Sets and pre-v-Sets

We introduce the notions of a pre--set and a pre-V-set in a topological space. We study the fundamental properties of pre--sets and pre-V-sets and investigate the topologies defined by these families of sets.     

From spline approximation to Roth’s equation and Schur functors

Alfeld and Schumaker provide a formula for the dimension of the space of piecewise polynomial functions, called splines, of degree d and smoothness r on a generic triangulation of a planar simplicial complex Δ, for d ≥ 3r + 1. Schenck and Stiller conjectured that this formula actually holds for all d ≥ 2r + 1. Up to this moment there was not known a single example where one could show that the bound d ≥ 2r + 1 is sharp. However, in 2005, a possible such example was constructed to show that this bound is the best possible (i.e., the Alfeld–Schumaker formula does not hold if d = 2r), except that the proof that this formula actually works if d ≥ 2r + 1 has been a challenge until now when we finally show it to be true. The interesting subtle connections with representation theory, matrix theory and commutative and homological algebra seem to explain why this example presented such a challenge. Thus in this paper we present the first example when it is known that the bound d ≥ 2r + 1 is sharp for asserting the validity of the Alfeld–Schumaker formula.     

Λ-modules and holomorphic Lie algebroid connections

Let X be a complex smooth projective variety, and G a locally free sheaf on X. We show that there is a one-to-one correspondence between pairs (Λ, Ξ), where Λ is a sheaf of almost polynomial filtered algebras over X satisfying Simpson’s axioms and \( \equiv :Gr\Lambda \to Sym \bullet _{\mathcal{O}_X } \mathcal{G}\) is an isomorphism, and pairs (L, Σ), where L is a holomorphic Lie algebroid structure on \(\mathcal{G}\) and Σ is a class in F ¹ H ²(L, ?), the first Hodge filtration piece of the second cohomology of L.As an application, we construct moduli spaces of semistable flat L-connections for any holomorphic Lie algebroid L. Particular examples of these are given by generalized holomorphic bundles for any generalized complex structure associated to a holomorphic Poisson manifold.     

Λsp-sets and some weak separation axioms

We shall introduce the notions of Λsp-closed and spg-closed sets. We also investigate properties of these sets and introduce some related new separation axioms. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

BGP-reflection functors and Lusztig’s symmetries of modified quantized enveloping algebras

Let U be a quantized enveloping algebra and  its modified form.Lusztig gives some symmetries on U and.In view of the realization of U by the reduced Drinfeld double of the Ringel-Hall algebra,one can apply the BGP-reflection functors to the double Ringel-Hall algebra to obtain Lusztig's symmetries on U and their important properties,for instance,the braid relations.In this paper,we define a modified form ■ of the Ringel-Hall algebra and realize the Lusztig's symmetries on  by applying the BGP-reflection functors to ■.     

Lefschetz fixed point theorems for Fourier–Mukai functors and DG algebras

We propose some variants of Lefschetz fixed point theorem for Fourier–Mukai functors on a smooth projective algebraic variety. Independently we also suggest a similar theorem for endo-functors on the category of perfect modules over a smooth and proper DG algebra.     

Going-down functors, the Künneth formula, and the Baum-Connes conjecture

We study the connection between the Baum-Connes conjecture for a locally compact group G with coeefficient A and the Künneth formula for the K-theory of tensor products by the corresponding crossed product . The main tool for this is obtained by an application of a general reduction procedure which allows us to analyze certain functors connected to the topological K-theory of a group in terms of their restrictions to compact subgroups. We also discuss several other interesting applications of this method, including a general extension result for the Baum-Connes conjecture.     

Λ-Cofibration Categories and the Homotopy Categories of Global Actions and Simplicial Complexes

We investigate the homotopy category of a -cofibration category and compare the homotopy categories of Global Actions, Simplicial Complexes and Topological Spaces.     

Applications of BGP-reflection functors: isomorphisms of cluster algebras

Given a symmetrizable generalized Cartan matrix A, for any index k, one can define an automorphism associated with A, of the field Q(u1,…, un) of rational functions of n independent indeterminates u1,…,un.It is an isomorphism between two cluster algebras associated to the matrix A (see sec. 4 for the precise meaning). When A is of finite type, these isomorphisms behave nicely; they are compatible with the BGP-reflection functors of cluster categories defined in a previous work if we identify the indecomposable objects in the categories with cluster variables of the corresponding cluster algebras, and they are also compatible with the "truncated simple reflections" defined by Fomin-Zelevinsky. Using the construction of preprojective or preinjective modules of hereditary algebras by DIab-Ringel and the Coxeter automorphisms (i.e. a product of these isomorphisms), we construct infinitely many cluster variables for cluster algebras of infinite type and all cluster variables for finite types.     

Apéry base and polar invariants for real valuations

The main objective of this paper is to study real valuations?μ defined on the polynomial ring K[T] with coefficients in a field K such that the restriction of?μ to K is a proper valuation on K. For this, we consider the Apéry base and the iterated sequence of valuations associated with?μ and we show the main properties and the relation between both invariants. We also prove a factorization theorem for elements ${f\in K[T]}$ of the suitable degree such that?μ(f) is in the Apéry base of?μ, obtaining strong properties of their irreducible factors. In particular, some results of M. Merle, R. Ephraim and A. Granja for irreducible algebroid plane curve singularity are a special case of this theorem.     

Λ(Ψ)-Fluctuation and the Fourier-Walsh series of bounded functions

We consider the questions of convergence of Fourier-Walsh series in Lorentz spaces. Some condition is given on a function ? sufficient for its Fourier-Walsh series to converge in the Lorentz spaces “near” L _∞. We show that this result is sharp.     

Mislin’s theorem for fusion systems through Mackey functors

We state and prove a fusion system version of Mislin’s theorem [9 Mislin, G. On group homomorphisms inducing mod-p cohomology isomorphisms. Comment. Math. Helv. 65(3):454–461.[Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]] on cohomology and control of fusion using Mackey functors. The issue of an algebraic proof is also discussed.     

The Katětov property for finite degree seminormal functors

A seminormal functor kF enjoys the Katěetov property (K-property) if for every compact set X the hereditary normality of kF(X) implies the metrizability of X. We prove that every seminormal functor of finite degree n>3 enjoys the K-property. On assuming the continuum hypothesis (CH) we characterize the weight preserving seminormal functors with the K-property. We also prove that the nonmetrizable compact set constructed in [1] on assuming CH is a universal counterexample for the K-property in the class of weight preserving seminormal functors.
