Voevodsky has conjectured that numerical equivalence and smash-equivalence coincide for algebraic cycles on any smooth projective variety. Building on work of Vial and Kahn–Sebastian, we give some new examples of varieties where Voevodsky's conjecture is verified.

In this paper, we study the multiplicity of solutions for the following problem:

$$\begin{equation*} \begin{cases} -\Delta u-\Delta(|u|^{\alpha})|u|^{\alpha-2}u=g(x,u)+\theta h(x,u), \ \ x\in \Omega,\\ u=0, \ \ x\in \partial\Omega, \end{cases} \end{equation*}$$

We consider countably many three-dimensional PSL2($\mathbb{F}$7)-del Pezzo surface fibrations over ℙ1. Conjecturally, they are all irrational except two families, one of which is the product of a del Pezzo surface with ℙ1. We show that the other model is PSL2($\mathbb{F}$7)-equivariantly birational to ℙ2×ℙ1. Based on a result of Prokhorov, we show that they are non-conjugate as subgroups of the Cremona group Cr3(ℂ).

We present a ready to compute trace formula for Hecke operators on vector-valued modular forms of integral weight for SL2(ℤ) transforming under the Weil representation. As a corollary, we obtain a ready to compute dimension formula for the corresponding space of vector-valued cusp forms, which is more general than the dimension formulae previously published in the vector-valued setting.

We suggest a way to quantize, using Berezin–Toeplitz quantization, a compact hyperkähler manifold (equipped with a natural 3-plectic form), or a compact integral Kähler manifold of complex dimension n regarded as a (2n−1)-plectic manifold. We show that quantization has reasonable semiclassical properties.

We show that every fibrewise map from a Serre microfibration to a Serre fibration is n-connected if it is fibrewise n-connected. This generalises a result of M. Weiss and related results by Bökstedt–Madsen and Galatius–Randal–Williams. We also discuss an application to configuration spaces.

In this paper, we consider several homological dimensions of crossed products AασG, where A is a left Noetherian ring and G is a finite group. We revisit the induction and restriction functors in derived categories, generalizing a few classical results for separable extensions. The global dimension and finitistic dimension of AσαG are classified: global dimension of AσαG is either infinity or equal to that of A, and finitistic dimension of AσαG coincides with that of A. A criterion for skew group rings to have finite global dimensions is deduced. Under the hypothesis that A is a semiprimary algebra containing a complete set of primitive orthogonal idempotents closed under the action of a Sylow p-subgroup S ≤ G, we show that A and AασG share the same homological dimensions under extra assumptions, extending the main results in (Li, Representations of modular skew group algebras, Trans. Amer. Math. Soc.367(9) (2015), 6293–6314, Li, Finitistic dimensions and picewise hereditary property of skew group algebras, to Glasgow Math. J.57(3) (2015), 509–517).

We characterize dual spaces and compute hyperdimensions of irreducible representations for two classes of compact hypergroups namely conjugacy classes of compact groups and compact hypergroups constructed by joining compact and finite hypergroups. Also, studying the representation theory of finite hypergroups, we highlight some interesting differences and similarities between the representation theories of finite hypergroups and finite groups. Finally, we compute the Heisenberg inequality for compact hypergroups.

In a previous paper, we studied the homogenized enveloping algebra of the Lie algebra sℓ(2,ℂ) and the homogenized Verma modules. The aim of this paper is to study the homogenization $\mathcal{O}$B of the Bernstein–Gelfand–Gelfand category $\mathcal{O}$ of sℓ(2,ℂ), and to apply the ideas developed jointly with J. Mondragón in our work on Groebner basis algebras, to give the relations between the categories $\mathcal{O}$B and $\mathcal{O}$ as well as, between the derived categories $\mathcal{D}$b($\mathcal{O}$B) and $\mathcal{D}$b($\mathcal{O}$).

Let ${\mathcal C}[{\mathcal X}]$ be any class of operators on a Banach space ${\mathcal X}$, and let ${Holo}^{-1}({\mathcal C})$ denote the class of operators A for which there exists a holomorphic function f on a neighbourhood ${\mathcal N}$ of the spectrum σ(A) of A such that f is non-constant on connected components of ${\mathcal N}$ and f(A) lies in ${\mathcal C}$. Let ${{\mathcal R}[{\mathcal X}]}$ denote the class of Riesz operators in ${{\mathcal B}[{\mathcal X}]}$. This paper considers perturbation of operators $A\in\Phi_{+}({\mathcal X})\Cup\Phi_{-}({\mathcal X})$ (the class of all upper or lower [semi] Fredholm operators) by commuting operators in $B\in{Holo}^{-1}({\mathcal R}[{\mathcal X}])$. We prove (amongst other results) that if πB(B) = ∏mi = 1(B − μi) is Riesz, then there exist decompositions ${\mathcal X}=\oplus_{i=1}^m{{\mathcal X}_i}$ and $B=\oplus_{i=1}^m{B|_{{\mathcal X}_i}}=\oplus_{i=1}^m{B_i}$ such that: (i) If λ ≠ 0, then $\pi_B(A,\lambda)=\prod_{i=1}^m{(A-\lambda\mu_i)^{\alpha_i}} \in\Phi_{+}({\mathcal X})$ (resp., $\in\Phi_{-}({\mathcal X})$) if and only if $A-\lambda B_0-\lambda\mu_i\in\Phi_{+}({\mathcal X})$ (resp., $\in\Phi_{-}({\mathcal X})$), and (ii) (case λ = 0) $A\in\Phi_{+}({\mathcal X})$ (resp., $\in\Phi_{-}({\mathcal X})$) if and only if $A-B_0\in\Phi_{+}({\mathcal X})$ (resp., $\in\Phi_{-}({\mathcal X})$), where B0 = ⊕mi = 1(Bi − μi); (iii) if $\pi_B(A,\lambda)\in\Phi_{+}({\mathcal X})$ (resp., $\in\Phi_{-}({\mathcal X})$) for some λ ≠ 0, then $A-\lambda B\in\Phi_{+}({\mathcal X})$ (resp., $\in\Phi_{-}({\mathcal X})$).

This paper investigates topological reconstruction, related to the reconstruction conjecture in graph theory. We ask whether the homeomorphism types of subspaces of a space X which are obtained by deleting singletons determine X uniquely up to homeomorphism. If the question can be answered affirmatively, such a space is called reconstructible. We prove that in various cases topological properties can be reconstructed. As main result we find that familiar spaces such as the reals ℝ, the rationals ℚ and the irrationals ℙ are reconstructible, as well as spaces occurring as Stone–Čech compactifications. Moreover, some non-reconstructible spaces are discovered, amongst them the Cantor set C.

We characterise the elements of the (maximum) idempotent-generated subsemigroup of the Kauffman monoid in terms of combinatorial data associated with certain normal forms. We also calculate the smallest size of a generating set and idempotent generating set.

We show in a straightforward way that the non-commutative Schwartz space is weakly amenable. At the end, we leave an open problem.

Given a complete hereditary cotorsion pair $(\mathcal{X}, \mathcal{Y})$, we introduce the concept of $(\mathcal{X}, \mathcal{X} \cap \mathcal{Y})$-Gorenstein projective modules and study its stability properties. As applications, we first get two model structures related to Gorenstein flat modules over a right coherent ring. Secondly, for any non-negative integer n, we construct a cofibrantly generated model structure on Mod(R) in which the class of fibrant objects are the modules of Gorenstein injective dimension ≤ n over a left Noetherian ring R. Similarly, if R is a left coherent ring in which all flat left R-modules have finite projective dimension, then there is a cofibrantly generated model structure on Mod(R) such that the cofibrant objects are the modules of Gorenstein projective dimension ≤ n. These structures have their analogous in the category of chain complexes.

A locally compact group G is compact if and only if its convolution algebras contain non-zero (weakly) completely continuous elements. Dually, G is discrete if its function algebras contain non-zero completely continuous elements. We prove non-commutative versions of these results in the case of locally compact quantum groups.

In this paper, we show that the known models for (∞, 1)-categories can all be extended to equivariant versions for any discrete group G. We show that in two of the models we can also consider actions of any simplicial group G.

In this note, we give a new simple construction of all maximal abelian ideals in a Borel subalgebra of a complex simple Lie algebra. We also derive formulas for dimensions of certain maximal abelian ideals in terms of the theory of Borel de Siebenthal.

We discuss the half-liberation operation X → X*, for the algebraic submanifolds of the unit sphere, $X\subset S^{N-1}_\mathbb C$. There are several ways of constructing this correspondence, and we take them into account. Our main results concern the computation of the affine quantum isometry group G+(X*), for the sphere itself.

Let $\mathbb{K}$ be a field and S = ${\mathbb{K}}$[x1, . . ., xn] be the polynomial ring in n variables over the field $\mathbb{K}$. For every monomial ideal I ⊂ S, we provide a recursive formula to determine a lower bound for the Stanley depth of S/I. We use this formula to prove the inequality sdepth(S/I) ≥ size(I) for a particular class of monomial ideals.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate sphere theorems for submanifolds with positive biorthogonal (sectional) curvature. We provide some upper bounds for the full norm of the second fundamental form under which a compact submanifold must be diffeomorphic to a sphere.
