1. Geodesic planes in geometrically finite acylindrical -manifolds

   BENOIST, YVES ; OH, HEE ( February 2022 , Ergodic Theory and Dynamical Systems)

   Abstract Let M be a geometrically finite acylindrical hyperbolic $3$ -manifold and let $M^*$ denote the interior of the convex core of M . We show that any geodesic plane in $M^*$ is either closed or dense, and that there are only countably many closed geodesic planes in $M^*$ . These results were obtained by McMullen, Mohammadi and Oh [Geodesic planes in hyperbolic 3-manifolds. Invent. Math. 209 (2017), 425–461; Geodesic planes in the convex core of an acylindrical 3-manifold. Duke Math. J. , to appear, Preprint , 2018, arXiv:1802.03853] when M is convex cocompact. As a corollary, we obtain that when M covers an arithmetic hyperbolic $3$ -manifold $M_0$ , the topological behavior of a geodesic plane in $M^*$ is governed by that of the corresponding plane in $M_0$ . We construct a counterexample of this phenomenon when $M_0$ is non-arithmetic.

   Abstract Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of prime characteristic $p$ , let $X$ be a semiabelian variety defined over a finite subfield of $K$ , let $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6F7}:X\longrightarrow X$ be a regular self-map defined over $K$ , let $V\subset X$ be a subvariety defined over $K$ , and let $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}\in X(K)$ . The dynamical Mordell–Lang conjecture in characteristic $p$ predicts that the set $S=\{n\in \mathbb{N}:\unicode[STIX]{x1D6F7}^{n}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC})\in V\}$ is a union of finitely many arithmetic progressions, along with finitely many $p$ -sets, which are sets of the form $\{\sum _{i=1}^{m}c_{i}p^{k_{i}n_{i}}:n_{i}\in \mathbb{N}\}$ for some $m\in \mathbb{N}$ , some rational numbers $c_{i}$ and some non-negative integers $k_{i}$ . We prove that this conjecture is equivalent with some difficult diophantine problem in characteristic 0. In the case $X$ is an algebraic torus, we can prove the conjecture in two cases: either when $\dim (V)\leqslant 2$ , or when no iterate of $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6F7}$ is a group endomorphism which induces the action of a power of the Frobenius on a positive dimensional algebraic subgroup of $X$ . We end by proving that Vojta’s conjecture implies the dynamical Mordell–Lang conjecture for tori with no restriction.

3. Simple weight modules with finite weight multiplicities over the Lie algebra of polynomial vector fields

   https://doi.org/10.1515/crelle-2022-0053  

   Grantcharov, Dimitar ; Serganova, Vera ( September 2022 , Journal für die reine und angewandte Mathematik (Crelles Journal))

   Abstract Let 𝒲 n {{\mathcal{W}}_{n}} be the Lie algebra of polynomial vector fields.We classify simple weight 𝒲 n {{\mathcal{W}}_{n}} -modules M with finite weight multiplicities. We prove that every such nontrivial module M is either a tensor module or the unique simple submodule in a tensor module associatedwith the de Rham complex on ℂ n {\mathbb{C}^{n}} .

4. Algebraic stability of meromorphic maps descended from Thurston’s pullback maps

   Let ϕ : S 2 → S 2 \phi :S^2 \to S^2 be an orientation-preserving branched covering whose post-critical set has finite cardinality n n . If ϕ \phi has a fully ramified periodic point p ∞ p_{\infty } and satisfies certain additional conditions, then, by work of Koch, ϕ \phi induces a meromorphic self-map R ϕ R_{\phi } on the moduli space M 0 , n \mathcal {M}_{0,n} ; R ϕ R_{\phi } descends from Thurston’s pullback map on Teichmüller space. Here, we relate the dynamics of R ϕ R_{\phi } on M 0 , n \mathcal {M}_{0,n} to the dynamics of ϕ \phi on S 2 S^2 . Let ℓ \ell be the length of the periodic cycle in which the fully ramified point p ∞ p_{\infty } lies; we show that R ϕ R_{\phi } is algebraically stable on the heavy-light Hassett space corresponding to ℓ \ell heavy marked points and ( n − ℓ ) (n-\ell ) light points.

5. Presentations for Subrings and Subalgebras of Finite CO-Rank

   https://doi.org/10.1093/qmathj/haz033  

   Mayr, Peter ; Ruškuc, Nik ( November 2019 , The Quarterly Journal of Mathematics)

   Let $K$ be a commutative Noetherian ring with identity, let $A$ be a $K$-algebra and let $B$ be a subalgebra of $A$ such that $A/B$ is finitely generated as a $K$-module. The main result of the paper is that $A$ is finitely presented (resp. finitely generated) if and only if $B$ is finitely presented (resp. finitely generated). As corollaries, we obtain: a subring of finite index in a finitely presented ring is finitely presented; a subalgebra of finite co-dimension in a finitely presented algebra over a field is finitely presented (already shown by Voden in 2009). We also discuss the role of the Noetherian assumption on $K$ and show that for finite generation it can be replaced by a weaker condition that the module $A/B$ be finitely presented. Finally, we demonstrate that the results do not readily extend to non-associative algebras, by exhibiting an ideal of co-dimension $1$ of the free Lie algebra of rank 2 which is not finitely generated as a Lie algebra.
