Modern Birkhauser Classics Modern Birkhauser Classics Many of the original research and survey monographs in pure and applied mathematics published by Birkhauser in recent decades have been groundbreaking and have come to be regarded as foun­ dational to the subject. Through the MBC Series, a select number of these modern classics, entirely uncorrected, are being re-released in paperback (and as eBooks) to ensure that these treasures remain ac­ cessible to new generations of students, scholars, and researchers.

  • Λ-RINGS and the FIELD with ONE ELEMENT Introduction Many Writers Have Mused About Algebraic Geometry Over Deeper Bases Than
    Λ-RINGS AND THE FIELD WITH ONE ELEMENT JAMES BORGER Abstract. The theory of Λ-rings, in the sense of Grothendieck's Riemann{ Roch theory, is an enrichment of the theory of commutative rings. In the same way, we can enrich usual algebraic geometry over the ring Z of integers to produce Λ-algebraic geometry. We show that Λ-algebraic geometry is in a precise sense an algebraic geometry over a deeper base than Z and that it has many properties predicted for algebraic geometry over the mythical field with one element. Moreover, it does this is a way that is both formally robust and closely related to active areas in arithmetic algebraic geometry. Introduction Many writers have mused about algebraic geometry over deeper bases than the ring Z of integers. Although there are several, possibly unrelated reasons for this, here I will mention just two. The first is that the combinatorial nature of enumer- ation formulas in linear algebra over finite fields Fq as q tends to 1 suggests that, just as one can work over all finite fields simultaneously by using algebraic geome- try over Z, perhaps one could bring in the combinatorics of finite sets by working over an even deeper base, one which somehow allows q = 1. It is common, follow- ing Tits [60], to call this mythical base F1, the field with one element. (See also Steinberg [58], p. 279.) The second purpose is to prove the Riemann hypothesis. With the analogy between integers and polynomials in mind, we might hope that Spec Z would be a kind of curve over Spec F1, that Spec Z ⊗F1 Z would not only make sense but be a surface bearing some kind of intersection theory, and that we could then mimic over Z Weil's proof [64] of the Riemann hypothesis over function fields.1 Of course, since Z is the initial object in the category of rings, any theory of algebraic geometry over a deeper base would have to leave the usual world of rings and schemes.

  • Reminiscences of Grothendieck and His School
    REMINISCENCES OF GROTHENDIECK AND HIS SCHOOL LUC ILLUSIE, WITH SPENCER BLOCH, VLADIMIR DRINFELD, ET AL. In the afternoon of Tuesday, January 30, 2007 Illusie met with Beilinson, Bloch, Drinfeld and a few other guests at Beilinson's place in Chicago. He chatted by the fireside, recalling memories of his days with Grothendieck. Here is a slightly edited version of a transcript prepared by Thanos Papa¨ıoannou,Keerthi Madapusi Sampath, and Vadim Vologodsky. At the IHES |(Illusie) I began attending Grothendieck's seminars at the IHES in '64 for the first part of SGA 5 ('64{ '65). The second part was in '65{'66. The seminar was on Tuesdays. It started at 2:15 and lasted one hour and a half. After that we had tea. Most of the talks were given by Grothendieck. Usually, he had pre-notes prepared over the summer or before, and he would give them to the potential speakers. Among his many students he distributed the expos´es,and also he asked his students to write down notes. The first time I saw him I was scared. It was in '64. I had been introduced to him through Cartan, who said, For what you're doing, you should meet Grothendieck. I was indeed looking for an Atiyah-Singer index formula in a relative situation. A relative situation is of course in Grothendieck's style, so Cartan immediately saw the point. I was doing something with Hilbert bundles, complexes of Hilbert bundles with finite cohomology, and he said, It reminds me of something done by Grothendieck, you should discuss with him.

    Jean-Marc Fontaine (1944–2019) Pierre Berthelot, Luc Illusie, Nicholas M. Katz, William Messing, and Peter Scholze Jean-Marc Fontaine passed away on January 29, 2019. For half a century, and up until his very last days, he devoted his immense talent and energy to the development of one of the most powerful tools now available in number theory and arithmetic geometry, 푝-adic Hodge theory. His work has had and will continue to have a tremendous influence. It has many deep applications. With the following texts, we would like to express our admiration, gratitude, and friendship. Jean-Marc was born on March 13, 1944, in Boulogne- Billancourt, a city located in the southwest suburbs of Paris. Boulogne-Billancourt was then mainly known as hosting one of the biggest car plants in France, and as a labor union stronghold. However, Jean-Marc’s family background was different. Close to the Christian Democratic movement, his father, Andr´eFontaine, was a very influential journal- Figure 1.

This theory seems to have been forgot until the recents works by Bhatt and Beilinson, who gave several applications, in particular in p-adic Hodge Theory. On the other hand, the derived de Rham cohomology has a crucial role in a conjecture by Flach-Morin about special values of zeta functions for arithmetic schemes.

  • Vanishing Theorems for Torsion Automorphic Sheaves on General Pel-Type Shimura Varieties
    VANISHING THEOREMS FOR TORSION AUTOMORPHIC SHEAVES ON GENERAL PEL-TYPE SHIMURA VARIETIES KAI-WEN LAN AND JUNECUE SUH Abstract. We consider the interior cohomology (and the Hodge graded pieces in the case of the de Rham realization) of general | not necessarily compact | PEL-type Shimura varieties with coefficients in the local systems corre- sponding to sufficiently regular algebraic representations of the associated re- ductive group. For primes p bigger than an effective bound, we prove that the Fp- and Zp-cohomology groups are concentrated in the middle degree, that the Zp-cohomology groups are free of p-torsion, and that every Fp-cohomology class lifts to a Zp-cohomology class. Introduction In the introduction to [42], we asked the following question on the cohomology of a (general) Shimura variety with coefficients in algebraic representations of the associated reductive group: Question. Let p be a prime number. When is the (Betti) cohomology of the Shimura variety with (possibly nontrivial) integral coefficients p-torsion free? We provided a partial answer in [42], by proving the torsion freeness under the following conditions: that the Shimura variety is compact, is of PEL type, and has a neat and prime-to-p level; that the weight of the algebraic representation is suf- ficiently regular; and that p is greater than an explicit bound determined by the linear algebraic data and the weight (and independent of the neat and prime-to-p level). More precisely, we showed that the cohomology groups with p-torsion coeffi- cients are concentrated in the middle degree, and this last fact implied the desired p-torsion freeness statement.
