We show that the Kervaire invariant one elements $\\theta _j \\epsilon \\pi _{2^{j+1}-2}S^0$ exist only for j ≤ 6. By Browder's Theorem, this means that smooth framed manifolds of Kervaire invariant one exist only in dimensions 2, 6, 14, 30, 62, and possibly 126. Except for dimension 126 this resolves a longstanding problem in algebraic topology.

The main result of this paper is the existence of Galois representations associated with the mod p (or mod pm) cohomology of the locally symmetric spaces for GLn over a totally real or CM field, proving conjectures of Ash and others. Following an old suggestion of Clozel, recently realized by Harris-Lan-Taylor-Thorne for characteristic 0 cohomology classes, one realizes the cohomology of the locally symmetric spaces for GLn as a boundary contribution of the cohomology of symplectic or unitary Shimura varieties, so that the key problem is to understand torsion in the cohomology of Shimura varieties. Thus, we prove new results on the p-adic geometry of Shimura varieties (of Hodge type). Namely, the Shimura varieties become perfectoid when passing to the inverse limit over all levels at p, and a new period map towards the flag variety exists on them, called the Hodge-Tate period map. It is roughly analogous to the embedding of the hermitian symmetric domain (which is roughly the inverse limit over all levels of the complex points of the Shimura variety) into its compact dual. The Hodge-Tate period map has several favorable properties, the most important being that it commutes with the Hecke operators away from p (for the trivial action of these Hecke operators on the flag variety), and that automorphic vector bundles come via pullback from the flag variety.

We prove that faithful traces on separable and nuclear C*-algebras in the UCT class are quasidiagonal. This has a number of consequences. Firstly, by results of many hands, the classification of unital, separable, simple and nuclear C*-algebras of finite nuclear dimension which satisfy the UCT is now complete. Secondly, our result links the finite to the general version of the Toms-Winter conjecture in the expected way and hence clarifies the relation between decomposition rank and nuclear dimension. Finally, we confirm the Rosenberg conjecture: discrete, amenable groups have quasidiagonal C*-algebras.

We endow the set of lattices in ${\\mathrm{\\mathbb{Q}}}_{\\mathrm{p}}^{\\mathrm{n}}$ with a reasonable algebro-geometric structure. As a result, we prove the representability of affine Grassmannians and establish the geometric Satake equivalence in mixed characteristic. We also give an application of our theory to the study of Rapoport-Zink spaces.

We show that log canonical thresholds satisfy the ACC.

We prove Soergel's conjecture on the characters of indecomposable Soergel bimodules. We deduce that Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials have positive coefficients for arbitrary Coxeter systems. Using results of Soergel one may deduce an algebraic proof of the Kazhdan-Lusztig conjecture.

The goal of this paper is to show that the cohomology of compact unitary Shimura varieties is concentrated in the middle degree and torsion-free, after localizing at a maximal ideal of the Hecke algebra satisfying a suitable genericity assumption. Along the way, we establish various foundational results on the geometry of the Hodge-Tate period map. In particular, we compare the fibres of the Hodge-Tate period map with Igusa varieties.

We prove that the canonical ring of a smooth projective variety is finitely generated.

In this paper we first develop various enhancements of the theory of spectral invariants of Hamiltonian Floer homology and of Entov-Polterovich theory of spectral symplectic quasi-states and quasi-morphisms by incorporating The most novel part of this paper is to use open-closed Gromov-Witten-Floer theory (operator We use this open-closed Gromov-Witten-Floer theory to produce new examples. Especially using the calculation of Lagrangian Floer cohomology with bulk deformation in Fukaya, et al. (2010, 2011, 2016), we produce examples of compact symplectic manifolds Many of these applications were announced in Fukaya, et al. (2010, 2011, 2012).

For any nondegenerate, quasi-homogeneous hypersurface singularity, we describe a family of moduli spaces, a virtual cycle, and a corresponding cohomological field theory associated to the singularity. This theory is analogous to Gromov-Witten theory and generalizes the theory of r-spin curves, which corresponds to the simple singularity A r-1 . We also resolve two outstanding conjectures of Witten. The first conjecture is that ADE-singularities are self-dual, and the second conjecture is that the total potential functions of ADE-singularities satisfy corresponding ADE-integrable hierarchies. Other cases of integrable hierarchies are also discussed.
