We establish sharp bounds for the second moment of symmetric-square L-functions attached to Hecke Maass cusp forms $u_j$ with spectral parameter $t_j$, where the second moment is a sum over $t_j$ in a short interval. At the central point $s=1/2$ of the L-function, our interval is smaller than previous known results. More specifically, for $\left \lvert t_j\right \rvert $ of size T, our interval is of size $T^{1/5}$, whereas the previous best was $T^{1/3}$, from work of Lam. A little higher up on the critical line, our second moment yields a subconvexity bound for the symmetric-square L-function. More specifically, we get subconvexity at $s=1/2+it$ provided $\left \lvert t_j\right \rvert ^{6/7+\delta }\le \lvert t\rvert \le (2-\delta )\left \lvert t_j\right \rvert $ for any fixed $\delta>0$. Since $\lvert t\rvert $ can be taken significantly smaller than $\left \lvert t_j\right \rvert $, this may be viewed as an approximation to the notorious subconvexity problem for the symmetric-square L-function in the spectral aspect at $s=1/2$.

We study the limiting behavior of Maass forms on sequences of large-volume compact quotients of $\operatorname {SL}_d({\mathbb R})/\textrm {SO}(d)$, $d\ge 3$, whose spectral parameter stays in a fixed window. We prove a form of quantum ergodicity in this level aspect which extends results of Le Masson and Sahlsten to the higher rank case.

It is proved that if $\varphi \colon A\to B$ is a local homomorphism of commutative noetherian local rings, a nonzero finitely generated B-module N whose flat dimension over A is at most $\operatorname {edim} A - \operatorname {edim} B$ is free over B and $\varphi $ is a special type of complete intersection. This result is motivated by a ‘patching method’ developed by Taylor and Wiles and a conjecture of de Smit, proved by the first author, dealing with the special case when N is flat over A.

In this article, we study a Gysin triangle in the category of motives with modulus (Theorem 1.2). We can understand this Gysin triangle as a motivic lift of the Gysin triangle of log-crystalline cohomology due to Nakkajima and Shiho. After that we compare motives with modulus and Voevodsky motives (Corollary 1.6). The corollary implies that an object in $\operatorname {\mathbf {MDM}^{\operatorname {eff}}}$ decomposes into a p-torsion part and a Voevodsky motive part. We can understand the corollary as a motivic analogue of the relationship between rigid cohomology and log-crystalline cohomology.

For each $k\geq 3$, we construct a $1$-parameter family of complete properly Alexandrov-embedded minimal surfaces in the Riemannian product space $\mathbb {H}^2\times \mathbb {R}$ with genus $1$ and k embedded ends asymptotic to vertical planes. We also obtain complete minimal surfaces with genus $1$ and $2k$ ends in the quotient of $\mathbb {H}^2\times \mathbb {R}$ by an arbitrary vertical translation. They all have dihedral symmetry with respect to k vertical planes, as well as finite total curvature $-4k\pi $. Finally, we provide examples of complete properly Alexandrov-embedded minimal surfaces with finite total curvature with genus $1$ in quotients of $\mathbb {H}^2\times \mathbb {R}$ by the action of a hyperbolic or parabolic translation.

In this work we prove a Fourier–Bros–Iagolnitzer (F.B.I.) characterisation for Gevrey vectors on hypo-analytic structures and we analyse the main differences of Gevrey regularity and hypo-analyticity concerning the F.B.I. transform. We end with an application of this characterisation on a propagation of Gevrey singularities result for solutions of the nonhomogeneous system associated with the hypo-analytic structure for analytic structures of tube type.

The formula of the title relates p-adic heights of Heegner points and derivatives of p-adic L-functions. It was originally proved by Perrin-Riou for p-ordinary elliptic curves over the rationals, under the assumption that p splits in the relevant quadratic extension. We remove this assumption, in the more general setting of Hilbert-modular abelian varieties.

We prove an extension of the Kato–Saito unramified class field theory for smooth projective schemes over a finite field to a class of normal projective schemes. As an application, we obtain Bloch’s formula for the Chow groups of $0$-cycles on such schemes. We identify the Chow group of $0$-cycles on a normal projective scheme over an algebraically closed field to the Suslin homology of its regular locus. Our final result is a Roitman torsion theorem for smooth quasiprojective schemes over algebraically closed fields. This completes the missing p-part in the torsion theorem of Spieß and Szamuely.

In this article, we show that the Abel–Jacobi images of the Heegner cycles over the Shimura curves constructed by Nekovar, Besser and the theta elements contructed by Chida–Hsieh form a bipartite Euler system in the sense of Howard. As an application of this, we deduce a converse to Gross–Zagier–Kolyvagin type theorem for higher weight modular forms generalising works of Wei Zhang and Skinner for modular forms of weight 2. That is, we show that if the rank of certain residual Selmer group is 1, then the Abel–Jacobi image of the Heegner cycle is nonzero in this residual Selmer group.

We investigate Carlson–Griffiths’ equidistribution theory of meormorphic mappings from a complete Kähler manifold into a complex projective algebraic manifold. By using a technique of Brownian motions developed by Atsuji, we obtain a second main theorem in Nevanlinna theory provided that the source manifold is of nonpositive sectional curvature. In particular, a defect relation follows if some growth condition is imposed.

Using crossed homomorphisms, we show that the category of weak representations (respectively admissible representations) of Lie–Rinehart algebras (respectively Leibniz pairs) is a left module category over the monoidal category of representations of Lie algebras. In particular, the corresponding bifunctor of monoidal categories is established to give new weak representations (respectively admissible representations) of Lie–Rinehart algebras (respectively Leibniz pairs). This generalises and unifies various existing constructions of representations of many Lie algebras by using this new bifunctor. We construct some crossed homomorphisms in different situations and use our actions of monoidal categories to recover some known constructions of representations of various Lie algebras and to obtain new representations for generalised Witt algebras and their Lie subalgebras. The cohomology theory of crossed homomorphisms between Lie algebras is introduced and used to study linear deformations of crossed homomorphisms.

In this article we study integral models of Shimura varieties, called Pappas–Rapoport splitting model, for ramified P.E.L. Shimira data. We study the special fiber and some stratification of these models, in particular we show that these are smooth and the Rapoport locus and the $\mu $-ordinary locus are dense, under some condition on the ramification.

We give a motivic proof of the fact that for nonsingular real tropical complete intersections, the Euler characteristic of the real part is equal to the signature of the complex part. This was originally proved by Itenberg in the case of surfaces in $\mathbb {C}P^{3}$, and has been successively generalized by Bertrand and by Bihan and Bertrand. Our proof, different from previous approaches, is an application of the motivic nearby fiber of semistable degenerations. In particular, it extends the original result by Itenberg, Bertrand, and Bihan to real analytic families admitting a $\mathbb {Q}$-nonsingular tropical limit.

We show that the conjecture of [27] for the special value at $s=1$ of the zeta function of an arithmetic surface is equivalent to the Birch–Swinnerton–Dyer conjecture for the Jacobian of the generic fibre.

We construct examples of quasi-isometric embeddings of word hyperbolic groups into $\mathsf {SL}(d,\mathbb {R})$ for $d \geq 4$ which are not limits of Anosov representations into $\mathsf {SL}(d,\mathbb {R})$. As a consequence, we conclude that an analogue of the density theorem for $\mathsf {PSL}(2,\mathbb {C})$ does not hold for $\mathsf {SL}(d,\mathbb {R})$ when $d \geq 4$.

For X a smooth projective variety and $D=D_1+\dotsb +D_n$ a simple normal crossing divisor, we establish a precise cycle-level correspondence between the genus $0$ local Gromov–Witten theory of the bundle $\oplus _{i=1}^n \mathcal {O}_X(-D_i)$ and the maximal contact Gromov–Witten theory of the multiroot stack $X_{D,\vec r}$. The proof is an implementation of the rank-reduction strategy. We use this point of view to clarify the relationship between logarithmic and orbifold invariants.
