Let $A$ be an abelian variety defined over a number field $F$. Suppose its dual abelian variety $A'$ has good non-ordinary reduction at the primes above $p$. Let $F_{\infty}/F$ be a $\mathbb Z_p$-extension, and for simplicity, assume that…
We verify a special case of a conjecture of G. Carlsson that describes the $\l$-adic $K$-theory of a field $F$ of characteristic prime to $\l$ in terms of the representation theory of the absolute Galois group $G_F$. This conjecture is…
We prove that the partition rank and the analytic rank of tensors are equal up to a constant, over finite fields of any characteristic and any large enough cardinality depending on the analytic rank. Moreover, we show that a plausible…
We give conditions for the monodromy group of a Hurwitz space over the configuration space of branch points to be the full alternating or symmetric group on the degree. Specializing the resulting coverings suggests the existence of many…
The Leopoldt conjecture is concerned with the image of the global units in the local units at the primes dividing p. In the definition of the global units the infinite place is distinguished. Exchanging p and infinity in the formulation one…
We previously obtained a generalization and refinement of results about the ramification theory of Artin-Schreier extensions of discretely valued fields in characteristic $p$ with perfect residue fields to the case of fields with more…
We use $\ell$-adic class field theory to take a new view on cyclotomic norms and Leopoldt or Gross generalized conjectures. By the way we recall and complete some classical results. We illustrate the logarithmic approach by various…
We consider an analogue of Artin's primitive root conjecture for units in real quadratic fields. Given such a nontrivial unit, for a rational prime p which is inert in the field the maximal order of the unit modulo p is p+1. An extension of…
The goal of this paper is to explain how a simple but apparently new fact of linear algebra together with the cohomological interpretation of L-functions allows one to produce many examples of L-functions over function fields vanishing to…
We prove that a refinement of Stark's Conjecture formulated by Rubin is true up to primes dividing the order of the Galois group, for finite, abelian extensions of function fields over finite fields. We also show that in the case of…
In this paper we prove Vogan's conjecture on Arthur packets for general linear groups over $p$-adic fields, building on earlier work. The proof uses a special case of endoscopic lifting, adapted from the 1992 book by Adams, Barbasch and…
Cohen, Lenstra, and Martinet have given conjectures for the distribution of class groups of extensions of number fields, but Achter and Malle have given theoretical and numerical evidence that these conjectures are wrong regarding the Sylow…
We prove that amenability of a discrete group is equivalent to dimension flatness of certain ring inclusions naturally associated with measure preserving actions of the group. This provides a group-measure space theoretic solution to a…
A long-standing conjecture of Podewski states that every minimal field is algebraically closed. It was proved by Wagner for fields of positive characteristic, but it remains wide open in the zero-characteristic case. We reduce Podewski's…
We provide a simple proof of the fact that the ramification index of the compositum of two finite extensions of local fields is equal to the least common multiple of the ramification indices when at least one of the extensions is tamely…
We prove that the approximation conjecture of Luck holds for all amenable groups in the complex group algebra case. This result was previously proved by Dodziuk, Linnell, Mathai, Schick and Yates under the assumption that the group is…
Let F be a non-Archimedean local field of characteristic 0, and let D be a finite dimensional central division algebra over F. We prove that any unitary irreducible representation of a Levi subgroup of GL(m,D), with m a positive integer,…
Using the recent advancements in the structure of algebraic groups over imperfect fields, we propose a generalization of Serre's Conjecture I and of results that revolve around it. In particular, we prove that the first Galois cohomology…
We give a new definition of a $p$-adic $L$-function for a mixed signature character of a real quadratic field and for a nontrivial ray class character of an imaginary quadratic field. We then state a $p$-adic Stark conjecture for this…
For an algebraic number $\alpha$ we consider the orders of the reductions of $\alpha$ in finite fields. In the case where $\alpha$ is an integer, it is known by the work on Artin's primitive root conjecture that the order is "almost always…
