The Becker-Gottlieb Transfer: a Geometric Description
[OWP-2019-13] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-05-14)In this note, we examine geometric aspects of the Becker-Gottlieb transfer in terms of the Umkehr and index maps, and rework some classic index theorems, using the cohomological formulae of the Becker-Gottlieb transfer. ... -
Cataland: Why the Fuß?
[OWP-2019-01] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-01-21)The three main objects in noncrossing Catalan combinatorics associated to a finite Coxeter system are noncrossing partitions, clusters, and sortable elements. The first two of these have known Fuß-Catalan generalizations. ... -
A Cheeger Type Inequality in Finite Cayley Sum Graphs
[OWP-2019-21] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-07-31) - (5 May - 27 July 2019)Let $G$ be a finite group and $S$ be a symmetric generating set of $G$ with $|S| = d$. We show that if the undirected Cayley sum graph $C_{\Sigma}(G,S)$ is an expander graph and is non-bipartite, then the spectrum of its ... -
Chirality of Real Non-Singular Cubic Fourfolds and Their Pure Deformation Classification
[OWP-2019-14] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-05-15)In our previous works we have classified real non-singular cubic hypersurfaces in the 5-dimensional projective space up to equivalence that includes both real projective transformations and continuous variations of ... -
Congruences Associated with Families of Nilpotent Subgroups and a Theorem of Hirsch
[OWP-2019-16] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-05-27)Our main result associates a family of congruences with each suitable system of nilpotent subgroups of a finite group. Using this result, we complete and correct the proof of a theorem of Hirsch concerning the class number ... -
Experimenting with Symplectic Hypergeometric Monodromy Groups
[OWP-2019-15] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-05-22)We present new computational results for symplectic monodromy groups of hypergeometric differential equations. In particular, we compute the arithmetic closure of each group, sometimes justifying arithmeticity. The results ... -
The First Hochschild Cohomology as a Lie Algebra
[OWP-2019-09] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-04-16)In this paper we study sufficient conditions for the solvability of the first Hochschild cohomology of a finite dimensional algebra as a Lie algebra in terms of its Ext-quiver in arbitrary characteristic. In particular, ... -
The Fourier Transform on Harmonic Manifolds of Purely Exponential Volume Growth
[OWP-2019-12] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-05-08)Let $X$ be a complete, simply connected harmonic manifold of purely exponential volume growth. This class contains all non-flat harmonic manifolds of non-positive curvature and, in particular all known examples of harmonic ... -
A Function Algebra Providing New Mergelyan Type Theorems in Several Complex Variables
[OWP-2019-02] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-02-11)For compact sets $K\subset \mathbb C^{d}$, we introduce a subalgebra $A_{D}(K)$ of $A(K)$, which allows us to obtain Mergelyan type theorems for products of planar compact sets as well as for graphs of functions. -
Global Solutions to Stochastic Wave Equations with Superlinear Coefficients
[OWP-2019-26] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-11-13)We prove existence and uniqueness of a random field solution $(u(t,x);(t,x)\in [0,T]\times \mathbb{R}^d)$ to a stochastic wave equation in dimensions $d=1,2,3$ with diffusion and drift coefficients of the form $|x| ... -
Group Algebras of Compact Groups. A New Way of Producing Group Hopf Algebras over Real and Complex Fields: Weakly Complete Topological Vector Spaces
[OWP-2019-06] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-02-27)Weakly complete real or complex associative algebras $A$ are necessarily projective limits of finite dimensional algebras. Their group of units $A^{-1}$ is a pro-Lie group with the associated topological Lie algebra $A_{\rm ... -
Group-Graded Rings Satisfying the Strong Rank Condition
[OWP-2019-22] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-08-16)A ring $R$ satisfies the $\textit{strong rank condition}$ (SRC) if, for every natural number $n$, the free $R$-submodules of $R^n$ all have rank $\leq n$. Let $G$ be a group and $R$ a ring strongly graded by $G$ such that ... -
Groups with Spanier-Whitehead Duality
[OWP-2019-23] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-09-17)We introduce the notion of Spanier-Whitehead $K$-duality for a discrete group $G$, defined as duality in the KK-category between two $C*$-algebras which are naturally attached to the group, namely the reduced group ... -
Hölder Continuity of the Spectra for Aperiodic Hamiltonians
[OWP-2019-05] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-02-26)We study the spectral location of a strongly pattern equivariant Hamiltonians arising through configurations on a colored lattice. Roughly speaking, two configurations are "close to each other" if, up to a translation, ... -
Matchings and Squarefree Powers of Edge Ideals
[OWP-2019-25] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-11-11)Squarefree powers of edge ideals are intimately related to matchings of the underlying graph. In this paper we give bounds for the regularity of squarefree powers of edge ideals, and we consider the question of when such ... -
Minimal Codimension One Foliation of a Symmetric Space by Damek-Ricci Spaces
[OWP-2019-11] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-05-07)In this article we consider solvable hypersurfaces of the form $N \exp(\mathbb{R} H)$ with induced metrics in the symmetric space $M = SL(3,\mathbb{C})/SU(3)$, where $H$ a suitable unit length vector in the subgroup $A$ ... -
On a Cheeger Type Inequality in Cayley Graphs of Finite Groups
[OWP-2019-20] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-07-22) - (7 July - 7 October 2017)Let $G$ be a finite group. It was remarked by Breuillard-Green-Guralnick-Tao that if the Cayley graph $C(G,S)$ is an expander graph and is non-bipartite then the spectrum of the adjacency operator $T$ is bounded away from ... -
On a Group Functor Describing Invariants of Algebraic Surfaces
[OWP-2019-08] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-03-01)Liedtke (2008) has introduced group functors $K$ and $\tilde K$, which are used in the context of describing certain invariants for complex algebraic surfaces. He proved that these functors are connected to the theory of ... -
On Co-Minimal Pairs in Abelian Groups
[OWP-2019-19] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-07-09)A pair of non-empty subsets $(W,W')$ in an abelian group $G$ is a complement pair if $W+W'=G$. $W'$ is said to be minimal to $W$ if $W+(W'\setminus \{w'\}) \neq G, \forall \,w'\in W'$. In general, given an arbitrary subset ... -
On Residuals of Finite Groups
[OWP-2019-17] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-05-28)A theorem of Dolfi, Herzog, Kaplan, and Lev [DHKL07, Thm. C] asserts that in a finite group with trivial Fitting subgroup, the size of the soluble residual of the group is bounded from below by a certain power of the group ...
