1. A partial converse ghost lemma for the derived category of a commutative Noetherian ring

   https://doi.org/10.1090/proc/16294  

   Liu, Jian; Pollitz, Josh (January 2023, Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society)

   In this article a condition is given to detect the containment among thick subcategories of the bounded derived category of a commutative noetherian ring. More precisely, for a commutative noetherian ring $R$and complexes of $R$-modules with finitely generated homology $M$and $N$, we show $N$is in the thick subcategory generated by $M$if and only if the ghost index of $N_{\mathfrak{p}}$with respect to $M_{\mathfrak{p}}$is finite for each prime $\mathfrak{p}$of $R$. To do so, we establish a “converse coghost lemma” for the bounded derived category of a non-negatively graded DG algebra with noetherian homology.

2. Derived 𝑝-adic heights and the leading coefficient of the Bertolini–Darmon–Prasanna 𝑝-adic 𝐿-function

   https://doi.org/10.1090/btran/227  

   Castella, Francesc; Hsu, Chi-Yun; Kundu, Debanjana; Lee, Yu-Sheng; Liu, Zheng (May 2025, Transactions of the American Mathematical Society, Series B)

   Let $E/\mathbf{Q}$be an elliptic curve and let $p$be an odd prime of good reduction for $E$. Let $K$be an imaginary quadratic field satisfying the classical Heegner hypothesis and in which $p$splits. The goal of this paper is two-fold: (1) we formulate a $p$-adic BSD conjecture for the $p$-adic $L$-function $L_{\mathfrak{p}}^{\mathrm{B}\mathrm{D}\mathrm{P}}$introduced by Bertolini–Darmon–Prasanna [Duke Math. J. 162 (2013), pp. 1033–1148]; and (2) for an algebraic analogue $F_{\stackrel{¯<\#comment/>}{\mathfrak{p}}}^{\mathrm{B}\mathrm{D}\mathrm{P}}$of $L_{\mathfrak{p}}^{\mathrm{B}\mathrm{D}\mathrm{P}}$, we show that the “leading coefficient” part of our conjecture holds, and that the “order of vanishing” part follows from the expected “maximal non-degeneracy” of an anticyclotomic $p$-adic height. In particular, when the Iwasawa–Greenberg Main Conjecture $\left(F_{\stackrel{¯<\#comment/>}{\mathfrak{p}}}^{\mathrm{B}\mathrm{D}\mathrm{P}}\right)=\left(L_{\mathfrak{p}}^{\mathrm{B}\mathrm{D}\mathrm{P}}\right)$is known, our results determine the leading coefficient of $L_{\mathfrak{p}}^{\mathrm{B}\mathrm{D}\mathrm{P}}$at $T=0$up to a $p$-adic unit. Moreover, by adapting the approach of Burungale–Castella–Kim [Algebra Number Theory 15 (2021), pp. 1627–1653], we prove the main conjecture for supersingular primes $p$under mild hypotheses. In the $p$-ordinary case, and under some additional hypotheses, similar results were obtained by Agboola–Castella [J. Théor. Nombres Bordeaux 33 (2021), pp 629–658], but our method is new and completely independent from theirs, and apply to all good primes.

3. Relations between Poincaré series for quasi-complete intersection homomorphisms

   https://doi.org/10.1090/proc/17078  

   Pollitz, Josh; Şega, Liana (January 2025, Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society)

   In this article we study base change of Poincaré series along a quasi-complete intersection homomorphism $\mathrm{\phi <\#comment/>}:<\#comment/>Q\to <\#comment/>R$, where $Q$is a local ring with maximal ideal $\mathfrak{m}$. In particular, we give a precise relationship between the Poincaré series ${\mathrm{P}}_M^Q\left(t\right)$of a finitely generated $R$-module $M$to ${\mathrm{P}}_M^R\left(t\right)$when the kernel of $\mathrm{\phi <\#comment/>}$is contained in $\mathfrak{m}{\mathrm{a}\mathrm{n}\mathrm{n}}_Q\left(M\right)$. This generalizes a classical result of Shamash for complete intersection homomorphisms. Our proof goes through base change formulas for Poincaré series under the map of dg algebras $Q\to <\#comment/>E$, with $E$the Koszul complex on a minimal set of generators for the kernel of $\mathrm{\phi <\#comment/>}$.

4. Uniform Lech’s inequality

   https://doi.org/10.1090/proc/16304  

   Ma, Linquan; Smirnov, Ilya (February 2023, Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society)

   Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$be a Noetherian local ring of dimension $d\ge <\#comment/>2$. We prove that if $e\left({\stackrel{^<\#comment/>}{R}}_{red}\right)>1$, then the classical Lech’s inequality can be improved uniformly for all $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideals, that is, there exists $\mathrm{\epsilon <\#comment/>}>0$such that $e\left(I\right)\le <\#comment/>d!\left(e\right(R)-<\#comment/>\mathrm{\epsilon <\#comment/>})\mathrm{\ell <\#comment/>}\left(R/I\right)$for all $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideals $I\subseteq <\#comment/>R$. This answers a question raised by Huneke, Ma, Quy, and Smirnov [Adv. Math. 372 (2020), pp. 107296, 33]. We also obtain partial results towards improvements of Lech’s inequality when we fix the number of generators of $I$.

5. Braid group action and quasi-split affine 𝚤quantum groups I

   https://doi.org/10.1090/ert/657  

   Lu, Ming; Wang, Weiqiang; Zhang, Weinan (October 2023, Representation Theory of the American Mathematical Society)

   This is the first of our papers on quasi-split affine quantum symmetric pairs $(\stackrel{~<\#comment/>}{\mathbf{U}}\left(\stackrel{^<\#comment/>}{\mathfrak{g}}\right),{\stackrel{~<\#comment/>}{\mathbf{U}}}^{\mathrm{ı<\#comment/>}})$, focusing on the real rank one case, i.e., $\mathfrak{g}={\mathfrak{s}\mathfrak{l}}_3$equipped with a diagram involution. We construct explicitly a relative braid group action of type $A_2^{\left(2\right)}$on the affine $\mathrm{ı<\#comment/>}$quantum group ${\stackrel{~<\#comment/>}{\mathbf{U}}}^{\mathrm{ı<\#comment/>}}$. Real and imaginary root vectors for ${\stackrel{~<\#comment/>}{\mathbf{U}}}^{\mathrm{ı<\#comment/>}}$are constructed, and a Drinfeld type presentation of ${\stackrel{~<\#comment/>}{\mathbf{U}}}^{\mathrm{ı<\#comment/>}}$is then established. This provides a new basic ingredient for the Drinfeld type presentation of higher rank quasi-split affine $\mathrm{ı<\#comment/>}$quantum groups in the sequels.
