We describe the equivariant cobordism classification of smooth actions of the group , considered as the group generated by two commuting involutions, on closed smooth -dimensional manifolds , for which the fixed point set of the action is a connected manifold of dimension and or . For , the classification is known.

Let be a monic polynomial in with no rational roots but with roots in for all , or equivalently, with roots mod for all . It is known that cannot be irreducible but can be a product of two or more irreducible polynomials, and that if is a product of irreducible polynomials, then its Galois group must be a union of conjugates of proper subgroups. We prove that for any , every finite solvable group that is a union of conjugates of proper subgroups (where all these conjugates have trivial intersection) occurs as the Galois group of such a polynomial, and that the same result (with ) holds for all Frobenius groups. It is also observed that every nonsolvable Frobenius group is realizable as the Galois group of a geometric, i.e. regular, extension of .

A well-known problem of B. Grünbaum (1960) asks whether for every continuous mass distribution (measure) on there exist hyperplanes dividing into parts of equal measure. It is known that the answer is positive in dimension (see H. Hadwiger (1966)) and negative for (see D. Avis (1984) and E. Ramos (1996)). We give a partial solution to Grünbaum's problem in the critical dimension by proving that each measure in admits an equipartition by hyperplanes, provided that it is symmetric with respect to a -dimensional affine subspace of . Moreover we show, by computing the complete obstruction in the relevant group of normal bordisms, that without the symmetry condition, a naturally associated topological problem has a negative solution. The computation is based on Koschorke's exact singularity sequence (1981) and the remarkable properties of the essentially unique, balanced binary Gray code in dimension ; see G. C. Tootill (1956) and D. E. Knuth (2001).

In most previous works on the existence of solutions to the -Yamabe problem, one assumes that the initial metric is -admissible. This is a pointwise condition. In this paper we prove that this condition can be replaced by a weaker integral condition.

We consider symmetric Markov chains on where we do not assume that the conductance between two points must be zero if the points are far apart. Under a uniform second moment condition on the conductances, we obtain upper bounds on the transition probabilities, estimates for exit time probabilities, and certain lower bounds on the transition probabilities. We show that a uniform Harnack inequality holds if an additional assumption is made, but that without this assumption such an inequality need not hold. We establish a central limit theorem giving conditions for a sequence of normalized symmetric Markov chains to converge to a diffusion on corresponding to an elliptic operator in divergence form.

We show that every minimal, free action of the group on the Cantor set is orbit equivalent to an AF-relation. As a consequence, this extends the classification of minimal systems on the Cantor set up to orbit equivalence to include AF-relations, -actions and -actions.

Let be a number field with real places and complex places, and let be the ring of integers of . The quotient has cusps, where is the class number of . We show that under the assumption of the generalized Riemann hypothesis that if is not or an imaginary quadratic field and if , then has infinitely many maximal subgroups with cusps. A key element in the proof is a connection to Artin's Primitive Root Conjecture.

This paper provides a topological method to construct all simply-connected, spin, smooth -manifolds with torsion-free homology using simply-connected, smooth -manifolds as building blocks. We explicitly determine the invariants that classify these -manifolds from the intersection form and specific homology classes of the -manifold building blocks.

We show that, for each , there is an -tensor norm (in the sense of Grothendieck) with the surprising property that the -tensor product has local unconditional structure for each choice of arbitrary -spaces . In fact, is the tensor norm associated to the ideal of multiple -summing -linear forms on Banach spaces.

It is an observation due to J. J. Kohn that for a smooth bounded pseudoconvex domain in there exists such that the -Neumann operator on maps (the space of -forms with coefficient functions in -Sobolev space of order ) into itself continuously. We show that this conclusion does not hold without the smoothness assumption by constructing a bounded pseudoconvex domain in , smooth except at one point, whose -Neumann operator is not bounded on for any .

An explicit Dirichlet series is obtained, which represents an analytic function of in the half-plane except for having simple poles at points that correspond to exceptional eigenvalues of the non-Euclidean Laplacian for Hecke congruence subgroups by the relation for . Coefficients of the Dirichlet series involve all class numbers of real quadratic number fields. But, only the terms with for sufficiently large discriminants contribute to the residues of the Dirichlet series at the poles , where is the multiplicity of the eigenvalue for . This may indicate (I'm not able to prove yet) that the multiplicity of exceptional eigenvalues can be arbitrarily large. On the other hand, by density theorem the multiplicity of exceptional eigenvalues is bounded above by a constant depending only on .

We propose an analogue of Solomon's descent theory for the case of a wreath product , where is a finite abelian group. Our construction mixes a number of ingredients: Mantaci-Reutenauer algebras, Specht's theory for the representations of wreath products, Okada's extension to wreath products of the Robinson-Schensted correspondence, and Poirier's quasisymmetric functions. We insist on the functorial aspect of our definitions and explain the relation of our results with previous work concerning the hyperoctaedral group.

Let be a closed, oriented -manifold. A folklore conjecture states that admits a symplectic structure if and only if admits a fibration over the circle. We will prove this conjecture in the case when is irreducible and its fundamental group satisfies appropriate subgroup separability conditions. This statement includes -manifolds with vanishing Thurston norm, graph manifolds and -manifolds with surface subgroup separability (a condition satisfied conjecturally by all hyperbolic -manifolds). Our result covers, in particular, the case of 0-framed surgeries along knots of genus one. The statement follows from the proof that twisted Alexander polynomials decide fiberability for all the -manifolds listed above. As a corollary, it follows that twisted Alexander polynomials decide if a knot of genus one is fibered.
