Mumford-Tate groups are the fundamental symmetry groups of Hodge theory, a subject which rests at the center of contemporary complex algebraic geometry. This book is the first comprehensive exploration of Mumford-Tate groups and domains. Containing basic theory and a wealth of new views and results, it will become an essential resource for graduate students and researchers. Although Mumford-Tate groups can be defined for general structures, their theory and use to date has mainly been in the classical case of abelian varieties. While the book does examine this area, it focuses on the nonclassical case. The general theory turns out to be very rich, such as in the unexpected connections of finite dimensional and infinite dimensional representation theory of real, semisimple Lie groups. The authors give the complete classification of Hodge representations, a topic that should become a standard in the finite-dimensional representation theory of noncompact, real, semisimple Lie groups. They also indicate that in the future, a connection seems ready to be made between Lie groups that admit discrete series representations and the study of automorphic cohomology on quotients of Mumford-Tate domains by arithmetic groups. Bringing together complex geometry, representation theory, and arithmetic, this book opens up a fresh perspective on an important subject.

In recent years, considerable progress has been made in studying algebraic cycles using infinitesimal methods. These methods have usually been applied to Hodge-theoretic constructions such as the cycle class and the Abel-Jacobi map. Substantial advances have also occurred in the infinitesimal theory for subvarieties of a given smooth variety, centered around the normal bundle and the obstructions coming from the normal bundle's first cohomology group. Here, Mark Green and Phillip Griffiths set forth the initial stages of an infinitesimal theory for algebraic cycles. The book aims in part to understand the geometric basis and the limitations of Spencer Bloch's beautiful formula for the tangent space to Chow groups. Bloch's formula is motivated by algebraic K-theory and involves differentials over Q. The theory developed here is characterized by the appearance of arithmetic considerations even in the local infinitesimal theory of algebraic cycles. The map from the tangent space to the Hilbert scheme to the tangent space to algebraic cycles passes through a variant of an interesting construction in commutative algebra due to Angeniol and Lejeune-Jalabert. The link between the theory given here and Bloch's formula arises from an interpretation of the Cousin flasque resolution of differentials over Q as the tangent sequence to the Gersten resolution in algebraic K-theory. The case of 0-cycles on a surface is used for illustrative purposes to avoid undue technical complications.

Rep. JAMIE RASKIN (D-MD): "This fine book is an essential primer about the stakes in '24. We owe Mark a debt of gratitude." LAURENCE TRIBE: "Written with searing clarity and biting humor." The Inflection Election: Democracy or Fascism in 2024? aims to warn busy and credulous Americans that this November will be a choice between a Party of Progress and a Party of Dangerous Extremism that may determine the path for American governance for generations. This is not a "both-sides" analysis by a journalistic spectator, but is instead a blunt "one-sided" guide by an experienced partisan--a public interest lawyer, elected Democrat, and prolific author. Mark Green makes the case for Democracy and Freedom and against Trump's blatant Caesarism and MAGA's fringeworthy agenda. While neither side has a prohibitive advantage as of mid-2024, the stakes are no mystery. If the GOP should now win both the White House and Congress--with a reactionary Supreme Court already in its column--a numerical minority of Americans would then enjoy a temporary governing majority that could cancel a century of progress and make the world's oldest democracy no longer democratic. There must be a word that binds together such threats but it sure isn't "conservative" in the way Eisenhower, Reagan, or the Bushes would have understood it. For if all the corruption, lies, violence, and racism described throughout The Inflection Election were aggregated into a pointillist painting, the portrait would resemble Orb n far more than Obama. This is extremism posing as patriotism . . . whether it's called fascism, dictatorship, autocracy, or authoritarianism. While the country can hope that the courts will hold Trump accountable, Green concludes that crushing it in 2024 is the best way to return to a healthy two-party system where losers respect the choice of voters, like in the good old days of 1789-2020. In a likely close 2024 national contest, The Inflection Election is an entertaining and informative manifesto that will become part of this year's urgent political conversation. It is a one-stop primer that synthesizes fresh phrases, narratives and values to keep Democrats on offense and Trump's MAGA party on-the-ropes. Green's conclusion is that the GOP "sounds like a casting call for the delirious jury in the classic film Idiocracy, which was supposed to be a satire on reverse Darwinism, not reality TV." November 5, 2024 is either/or time. This book explains why.

British Punk music has created a genre of simplistic but dynamic Rock 'n' Roll that shook the stiff establishment during dreadful years in 1976 to 1979. Skrewdriver was one of those protagonists on their quest for rebellion and fame. A band labelled as infamous, but their early Punk 'career' remained often nebulous. 'A Case of Pride' is the full story of young adventures told in an unstained and authentic way...

I'm An-ti-social, An-ti-social, An-ti-Social, I hate the world... Mit diesem Lied schaffte die Band Skrewdriver sich lautstark Geh r in der Punkmusikwelt anno 1977. Viele Jugendliche und Heranwachsende identifizierten sich mit dieser Textzeile w hrend einer Zeit einer herrschenden Tristesse, die aber auch gepr gt war von steigenden gesellschaftlichen sowie politischen Spannungen. Skrewdriver folgten (wie viele andere auch) dem Ruf der aufkommenden britischen Punkbewegung mit der "Do It Yourself"-Philosophie. Sie traten mit den Sex Pistols auf, er ffneten Shows f r The Damned, Mot rhead, Billy Idols Generation X, Boomtown Rats oder auch f r Siouxie & The Banshees und standen kurz vor einer wohl erfolgreichen Musikkarriere, aber Ausschreitungen bei einem wichtigen Konzert in London zerst rten j h die Tr ume der ambitionierten Musiker. Dieses Buch dokumentiert die spannende Reise von Skrewdriver w hrend ihrer Punkphase bis 1979. Archivmaterial mit bis dato unver ffentlichten Bildern, Interviews mit Zeitzeugen und ehemaligen Bandmitgliedern gew hren einen tiefen Einblick in eine Zeit der pr genden, rebellischen Musikkultur.

The 'eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month' of 1918 was supposed to be the conclusion of the 'war to end all wars'. Just twenty-one years after the armistice was signed, Barnsley, its borough and the world braced itself for a global conflict that history would eventually testify to be deadlier than the war that destroyed a generation of Barnsley men and boys. After the Great War, the famous market town stumbled into a new era that promised social change, including universal suffrage, economic and political stability and establishments of new international organisations such as the League of Nations to steer the masses. In reality, the town suffered in poverty, endured pit disasters, countless industrial deaths all the while still lamenting its lost generation, mercilessly butchered on The Somme. The books narrative explains in detail Barnsley's transition from its interwar years, to the euphoria of victory in 1945, supported by a timeline of national events that helped shape the town. It steers away from the common two-dimensional viewpoints some people had on the Home Front and the endless reusing of the same themes - 'the Great British spirit', Churchillian greatness, D-Day, Dunkirk and VE day. Although one cannot dismiss those remarkable qualities the town developed during the war, it also explores controversial topics such as social impacts, the rise in juvenile delinquency, misplaced optimism, increase in crime and the acceptance of the status quo by some members of the ruling council. Indeed, Barnsley rose to the challenge as it did years earlier, women once again revealed their rightful place in society as equals, miners smashed productivity records, men and women took up arms in anticipation of invasion. The Second World War had arguably the same impacts on Barnsley as the Great War, further local names etched on the memorials as a timeless reminder of the men, women and children who died or gave their life for their town, county and country. Never to be forgotten.
