چکیده

If C is a smooth curve over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic exponent p, then the structure of the maximal prime-top quotient of thé etale fundamental group is known by analytic methods. In this paper, we discuss the properties of the fundamental group that can be deduced by purely algebraic techniques. We describe a general reduction from an arbitrary curve to the projective line minus three points, and show what can be proven unconditionally about the maximal pro-nilpotent and pro-solvable quotients of the prime-top fundamental group. Included is an appendix which treats the tame fundamental group from a stack-theoretic perspective.

There is a constant C 0 such that all nonabelian finite simple groups of rank n over Fq, with the possible exception of the Ree groups 2 G 2 (3 2e+1), have presentations with at most C 0 generators and relations and total length at most C 0 (log n + log q). As a corollary, we deduce a conjecture of Holt: there is a constant C such that dim H 2 (G, M) ≤ C dim M for every finite simple group G, e...

We study Cox rings of K3-surfaces. A first result is that a K3surface has a finitely generated Cox ring if and only if its effective cone is rational polyhedral. Moreover, we investigate degrees of generators and relations for Cox rings of K3-surfaces of Picard number two, and explicitly compute the Cox rings of generic K3-surfaces with a non-symplectic involution that have Picard number 2 to 5...

If a finite group G has a presentation with d generators and r relations, it is well-known that r−d is at least the rank of the Schur multiplier of G; a presentation is called efficient if equality holds. There is an analogous definition for proficient profinite presentations. We show that many perfect groups have proficient presentations. Moreover, we prove that infinitely many alternating gro...
