On Hilbert Modular Threefolds Of Discriminant 49, Lev A. Borisov, Paul E. Gunnells Nov 2012

On Hilbert Modular Threefolds Of Discriminant 49, Lev A. Borisov, Paul E. Gunnells

Paul Gunnells

Let K be the totally real cubic field of discriminant 49 , let \fancyscriptO be its ring of integers, and let p⊂\fancyscriptO be the prime over 7 . Let Γ(p)⊂Γ=SL2(\fancyscriptO) be the principal congruence subgroup of level p . This paper investigates the geometry of the Hilbert modular threefold attached to Γ(p) and some related varieties. In particular, we discover an octic in P3 with 84 isolated singular points of type A2 .


Modular Forms And Elliptic Curves Over The Cubic Field Of Discriminant - 23, Paul E. Gunnells, Dan Yasaki Nov 2012

Modular Forms And Elliptic Curves Over The Cubic Field Of Discriminant - 23, Paul E. Gunnells, Dan Yasaki

Paul Gunnells

Let F be the cubic field of discriminant –23 and let O Ϲ F be its ring of integers. By explicitly computing cohomology of congruence subgroups of 〖GL〗_2(O) , we computationally investigate modularity of elliptic curves over F.


Generalised Burnside Rings, G-Categories And Module Categories, Paul E. Gunnells, Andrew Rose, Dmitriy Rumynin Mar 2012

Generalised Burnside Rings, G-Categories And Module Categories, Paul E. Gunnells, Andrew Rose, Dmitriy Rumynin

Paul Gunnells

This note describes an application of the theory of generalised Burnside rings to algebraic representation theory. Tables of marks are given explicitly for the groups S4 and S5 which are of particular interest in the context of reductive algebraic groups. As an application, the base sets for the nilpotent element F4(a3) are computed.
