Perfectoid Pure and Signature Pairs

Abstract

We extend perfectoid purity and related invariants to divisor pairs in mixed characteristic. The resulting purity condition agrees with $F$-purity of pairs in characteristic $p$ as defined by Hara--Watanabe. For normal (respectively, demi-normal) log $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein pairs, we show that perfectoid pure implies log canonical (respectively, semi-log canonical). We similarly establish adjunction for perfectoid pure pairs and inversion of adjunction for principal pairs in complete intersections along a Cartier divisor. We also define perfectoid pure thresholds and prove localization and base change results, including a formula for local extensions with regular closed fiber. We establish upper bounds in terms of analytic spread, dimension, and log canonical thresholds. Finally, we also introduce perfectoid signatures for divisor pairs in mixed characteristic whose positivity characterizes the BCM-regularity of log $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein pairs. We prove a transformation rule under finite extensions and show continuity and convexity for scalings of a Cartier divisor.

On the fundamental groups of subelliptic varieties

We show that the fundamental group of any smooth subelliptic variety is finite. Moreover, it is also proved that every finite group can be realized as the fundamental group of a smooth subelliptic variety. As a consequence, it follows that there exists a smooth subelliptic variety homotopy equivalent to the $n$-sphere if and only if $n>1$. This result can be considered as a negative answer to the algebraic version of Gromov's problem on the homotopy types of Oka manifolds.

Minimal energy local systems on curves

Let $Σ_{g,n}$ be an orientable topological surface of genus $g$ with $n$ punctures. When $g = 0$, Deroin and Tholozan studied the class of supra-maximal representations $π_1(Σ_{0,n})\to \mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{R})$, and they showed that the supra-maximal representations form a compact component of a real relative character variety. We study a collection of rank $r$ local systems on $Σ_{g,n}$ which we call of minimal energy. These are generalizations of supra-maximal representations, and underlie polarizable complex variations of Hodge structure for any choice of complex structure on $Σ_{g,n}$. Like the supra-maximal representations, the minimal energy local systems form compact components of relative character varieties of real forms of $\mathrm{GL}_r(\mathbb{C})$. We show that when the local monodromy data around the punctures is chosen to be unitary and generic, and the relative character variety is nonempty, these minimal energy local systems always exist. When $g > 0$, we show that the minimal energy local systems come from unitary representations of $π_1(Σ_{g,n})$. If $g = 0$ we show that they do not always come from unitary representations, and we study their structure in general.

Hypergeometric local systems and parabolic bundles

Beukers and Heckman gave necessary and sufficient conditions for a hypergeometric function $_n F_{n-1}$ to be algebraic. We give a new proof of this theorem by passing through the Mehta-Seshadri correspondence. In particular, we explicitly write down the parabolic bundle corresponding to a unitary hypergeometric local system.
