Let be a smooth cubic fourfold. A well known conjecture asserts that is rational if and only if there a Hodge theoretically associated K3 surface . The surface can be associated to in two other different ways. If there is an equivalence of categories where is the Kuznetsov component of and is a Brauer class, or if there is an isomorphism between the transcendental motive and the (twisted ) transcendental motive of a K3 surface . In this note we consider families of cubic fourfolds with a finite group of automorphisms and describe the cases where there is an associated K3 surface in one of the above senses.

Let be a regular, irreducible curve that is projective over a field. We obtain bounds in terms of the arithmetic genus of for the generators that are required for the cokernel of the tame symbol, as well as, under a simplifying assumption, its kernel. We briefly discuss a potential application to Chow groups.

We discuss cases where Voevodsky’s smash nilpotence conjecture is known, and give a few new ones. In particular we explain a theorem of the cube for 1-cycles, which is due to Oussama Ouriachi.

In this paper we discuss a general notion of Weil cohomology theories, both in algebraic geometry and in rigid analytic geometry. We allow our Weil cohomology theories to have coefficients in arbitrary commutative ring spectra. Using the theory of motives, we give three equivalent viewpoints on Weil cohomology theories: as a cohomology theory on smooth varieties, as a motivic spectrum and as a realization functor. We also associate to every Weil cohomology theory a motivic Hopf algebroid generalizing the construction we gave in Ayoub (2014) for the Betti cohomology. Exploiting results and constructions from Ayoub (2020), we are able to prove that the motivic Hopf algebroids of all the classical Weil cohomology theories are connective. In particular, they give rise to motivic Galois groupoids which are spectral affine groupoid schemes.

Two -analogs of the hypercube graph are introduced and shown to be related through a graph quotient. The roles of the subspace lattice graph, of a twisted primitive element of and of the dual -Krawtchouk polynomials are elaborated upon. This paper is dedicated to Tom Koornwinder.

For self-similar measures with overlaps, closed formulas of the -spectrum have been obtained by Ngai and the author for measures that are essentially of finite type in [J. Aust. Math. Soc. 106 (2019), 56–103]. We extend the results of Ngai and the author (Ngai and Xie, 2019) to graph-directed self-similar measures. For graph-directed self-similar measures satisfying the graph open set condition, the -spectrum has been studied by Edgar and Mauldin (1992). The main novelty of our results is that the graph-directed self-similar measures we consider do not need to satisfy the graph open set condition. For graph-directed self-similar measures on
