DOWNLOAD EBOOK →This volume began as the last part of a one-term graduate course given at the Fields Institute for Research in the Mathematical Sciences in the Autumn of 1993. The course was one of four associated with the 1993-94 Fields Institute programme, which I helped to organise, entitled "Artin L-functions". Published as [132]' the final chapter of the course introduced a manner in which to construct class-group valued invariants from Galois actions on the algebraic K-groups, in dimensions two and three, of number rings. These invariants were inspired by the analogous Chin burg invariants of [34], which correspond to dimensions zero and one. The classical Chinburg invariants measure the Galois structure of classical objects such as units in rings of algebraic integers. However, at the "Galois Module Structure" workshop in February 1994, discussions about my invariant (0,1 (L/ K, 3) in the notation of Chapter 5) after my lecture revealed that a number of other higher-dimensional co homological and motivic invariants of a similar nature were beginning to surface in the work of several authors. Encouraged by this trend and convinced that K-theory is the archetypical motivic cohomology theory, I gratefully took the opportunity of collaboration on computing and generalizing these K-theoretic invariants. These generalizations took several forms - local and global, for example - as I followed part of number theory and the prevalent trends in the "Galois Module Structure" arithmetic geometry.

Application to problems of singular perturbations and finite cyclicity are discussed in the last chapter.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →This paper concerns the relation between the Lifted Root Number Conjecture, as introduced in [GRW2], and a new equivariant form of Iwasawa theory. A main conjecture of equivariant Iwasawa theory is formulated, and its equivalence to the Lifted Root Number Conjecture is shown subject to the validity of a semi-local version of the Root Number Conjecture, which itself is proved in the case of a tame extension of real abelian fields.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →In this text, the perturbation theory of non-commutatively integrable systems is revisited from the point of view of non-Abelian symmetry groups. Using a co-ordinate system intrinsic to the geometry of the symmetry, the book generalizes and geometrizes well-known estimates of Nekhoroshev (1977), in a class of systems having almost $G$-invariant Hamiltonians. These estimates are shown to have a natural interpretation in terms of momentum maps and co-adjoint orbits. The geometric framework adopted is described explicitly in examples, including the Euler-Poinsot rigid body.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →In this paper the authors develop homotopy theoretical methods for studying diagrams. In particular they explain how to construct homotopy colimits and limits in an arbitrary model category. The key concept introduced is that of a model approximation. A model approximation of a category $\mathcal{C}$ with a given class of weak equivalences is a model category $\mathcal{M}$ together with a pair of adjoint functors $\mathcal{M} \rightleftarrows \mathcal{C}$ which satisfy certain properties. The key result says that if $\mathcal{C}$ admits a model approximation then so does the functor category $Fun(I, \mathcal{C})$.

The pair ${\mathcal M}={\mathcal L} \rtimes_{\alpha} H \supseteq {\mathcal N}={\mathcal L} DEGREES{\alpha\mid_N}$ (of the crossed product ${\mathcal L} \rtimes_{\alpha} H$ and the fixed-point algebra ${\mathcal L} DEGREES{\alpha\mid_N}$) gives an irreducible inclusion of factors with Jones index $\# G$. The inclusion ${\mathcal M} \supseteq {\mathcal N}$ is of depth $2$ and hence known to correspond to a Kac algebra of dim

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →We develop the theory of compactness of maps between toposes, together with associated notions of separatedness. This theory is built around two versions of "propriety" for topos maps, introduced here in a parallel fashion. The first, giving what we simply call "proper" maps, is a relatively weak condition due to Johnstone. The second kind of proper maps, here called "tidy", satisfy a stronger condition due to Tierney and Lindgren. Various forms of the Beck-Chevalley condition for (lax) fibered product squares of toposes play a central role in the development of the theory. Applications include a version of the Reeb stability theorem for toposes, a characterization of hyperconnected Hausdorff toposes as classifying toposes of compact groups, and of strongly Hausdorff coherent toposes as classifiying toposes of profinite groupoids. Our results also enable us to develop further particular aspects of the factorization theory of geometric morphisms studied by Johnstone. Our final application is a (so-called lax) descent theorem for tidy maps between toposes. This theorem implies the lax descent theorem for coherent toposes, conjectured by Makkai and proved earlier by Zawadowski.
