On the method of Coleman and Chabauty.
We take another approach to Hitchin’s strategy of computing the cohomology of moduli spaces of Higgs bundles by localization with respect to the circle action. Our computation is done in the dimensional completion of the Grothendieck ring of varieties and starts by describing the classes of moduli stacks of chains rather than their coarse moduli spaces. As an application we show that the -torsion of the Jacobian acts trivially on the middle dimensional cohomology of the moduli space of twisted...
In 2001, motivated by his results on finite-type knot diagram invariants, Östlund conjectured that Reidemeister moves 1 and 3 are sufficient to describe a homotopy from any generic immersion S¹ → ℝ² to the standard embedding of the circle. We show that this conjecture is false.
Elliptic curves with CM unveil a new phenomenon in the theory of large algebraic fields. Rather than drawing a line between and or and they give an example where the line goes beween and and another one where the line goes between and .
