Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a field and $\mathsf{G}$ a group. This work is inspired in the following problem: "{\it given a division (simple) $\mathsf{G}$-graded $\mathbb{F}$-algebra, is there any other division (simple) $\mathsf{G}$-graded…
In an earlier preprint (math.AG/9810142) we gave an explicit description of the algebraic closure of the field of power series over a field of characteristic p, in terms of "generalized power series". In this paper, we give an analogous…
We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a type of generalized power series to be algebraic over the ring of power series with coefficients in a finite field. This result extend a classical theorem of Huang-Stefanescu.
For every algebraically closed field $\boldsymbol k$ of characteristic different from $2$, we prove the following: (1) Generic finite dimensional (not necessarily associative) $\boldsymbol k$-algebras of a fixed dimension, considered up to…
We present foundations of globally valued fields, i.e., of a class of fields with an extra structure, capturing some aspects of the geometry of global fields, based on the product formula. We provide a dictionary between various data…
A finite group G is admissible over a field M if there is a division algebra whose center is M with a maximal subfield G-Galois over M. We consider nine possible notions of being admissible over M with respect to a subfield K of M, where…
Let G be any group and F an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We show that any G-graded finite dimensional associative G-simple algebra over F is determined up to a G-graded isomorphism by its G-graded polynomial…
In this paper we obtain the genus field of a general Kummer extension of a global rational function field. We study first the case of a general Kummer extension of degree a power of a prime. Then we prove that the genus field of a composite…
We classify, up to equivalence, all finite-dimensional simple graded division algebras over the field of real numbers. The grading group is any finite abelian group.
Let F be a real quadratic field, and let R be an order in F. Suppose given a polarized abelian surface (A,\lambda) defined over a number field k with a symmetric action of R defined over k. This paper considers varying A within the…
In this article we prove a result comparing rationality of algebraic cycles over the function field of a projective homogeneous variety under a linear algebraic group of type $F_4$ or $E_8$ and over the base field, which can be of any…
In this paper, we give a valuation formula for rational top differential forms of function fields in characteristic zero for arbitrary Abhyankar places generalizing the classical valuation at prime divisors. This enables us to define log…
Let $k$ be a field with a real valuation $\nu$ and $R$ a $k$-algebra. We show that there exist a $k$-algebra $K$ and a real valuation $\mu$ on $K$ extending $\nu$ such that any real ring valuation of $R$ is induced by $\mu$ via some…
We study degree bounds on rational but not necessarily polynomial generators for the field $\mathbf{k}(V)^G$ of rational invariants of a linear action of a finite abelian group. We show that lattice-theoretic methods used recently by the…
If $L/K$ is a finite Galois extension of local fields, we say that the valuation criterion $VC(L/K)$ holds if there is an integer $d$ such that every element $x \in L$ with valuation $d$ generates a normal basis for $L/K$. Answering a…
In this paper, we establish some finiteness results about the multiplicative dependence of rational values modulo sets which are `close' (with respect to the Weil height) to division groups of finitely generated multiplicative groups of a…
This article is a natural construction of our previous works. In this article, we employ similar ideas due to MacLane to provide an estimate of IC(K(X)|K,v) when (K(X)|K,v) is a valuation algebraic extension. Our central result is an…
We prove that if $G$ is an Abelian group and $A_1,\ldots,A_k \subseteq G$ satisfy $m A_i=G$ (the $m$-fold sumset), then $A_1+\ldots+A_k=G$ provided that $k \ge c_m \log n$. This generalizes a result of Alon, Linial, and Meshulam [Additive…
The algebra of strongly regular functions F[G_m] on a symmetrizable minimal Kac-Moody group G_m over a field F of characteristic zero has been introduced by V. Kac and D. Peterson as a coordinate ring of the minimal Kac-Moody group. We…
We study amenability of affine algebras (based on the notion of almost-invariant finite-dimensional subspace), and apply it to algebras associated with finitely generated groups. We show that a group G is amenable if and only if its group…
