In a previous work, the second-named author gave a complete description of the action of automorphisms on the ordinary irreducible characters of the finite symplectic groups. We generalise this in two directions. Firstly, using work of the…

Bhargava has given a formula, derived from a formula of Serre, computing a certain count of extensions of a local field, weighted by conductor and by number of automorphisms. We interpret this result as a counting formula for permutation…

We introduce a new fundamental group scheme for varieties defined over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic and we use it to study generalization of some of C. Simpson's results to positive characteristic. We also study…

In this paper, we utilize our previous results on mod p monodromy of cyclic coverings of the projective line to realize a large series of groups of the form PSL(n, q) and PSU(n, q) as Galois groups over Q. We achieve for the first time a…

It is proved that there exist plane rational curves of degree twelve (resp. twenty-four) with two different outer Galois points such that the Galois group at one of two Galois points is an alternating group $A_4$ (resp. a symmetric group…

For a Galois number field $K$, the Galois group $\text{Gal}(K/\mathbb{Q})$ acts on the class group $Cl_K$ in a very natural way: $\sigma\cdot[I]=[\sigma(I)]$ for any $\sigma \in \text{Gal}(K/\mathbb{Q})$, $[I]\in Cl_K$. In this paper, we…

Over a global field (number field or function field of a curve over a finite field), theorems for the Galois cohomology of algebraic groups have long been known. For $F$ the function field of a curve over the formal series field…

In his thesis, S. Checcoli shows that, among other results, if $K$ is a number field and if $L/K$ is an infinite Galois extension with Galois group $G$ of finite exponent, then $L$ has uniformly bounded local degrees at every prime of $K$.…

We present a difference analogue of a result given by Hrushovski on differential Galois groups under specialization. Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and $\mathbb{X}$ an irreducible affine algebraic variety…

We prove the existence of certain rationally rigid triples E8 in good characteristic and thereby show that these groups over the prime field occur as Galois groups over the field of rational numbers. We show that these triples give rise to…

Let F be a finitely generated field of characteristic zero and \Gamma<GL_n(F) a finitely generated subgroup. For an element g in \Gamma, let Gal(F(g)/ F) be the Galois group of the splitting field of the characteristic polynomial of g over…

Let $H$ be a skew field of finite dimension over its center $k$. We solve the Inverse Galois Problem over the field of fractions $H(X)$ of the ring of polynomial functions over $H$ in the variable $X$, if $k$ contains an ample field.

We classify Galois objects for the dual of a group algebra of a finite group over an arbitrary field.

We make explicit certain results around the Galois correspondence in the context of definable automorphism groups, and point out the relation to some recent papers dealing with the Galois theory of algebraic differential equations when the…

Jacobson developed a counterpart of Galois theory for purely inseparable field extensions in positive characteristic. In his theory, a certain type of derivations replace the role of the generators of Galois groups. This article provides a…

Via counting over finite fields, we derive explicit formulas for the E-polynomials and Euler characteristics of GL(d)- and PGL(d)-character varieties of free groups. We prove a positivity property for these polynomials and relate them to…

Let A be an abelian variety defined over a number field k and F a finite Galois extension of k. Let p be a prime number. Then under certain not-too-stringent conditions on A and F we investigate the explicit Galois structure of the…

We examine the ramification groups of finite Galois extensions over complete discrete valuation fields of equal characteristic $p>0$. Brylinski (1983) calculated the ramification groups in the case where the Galois groups are abelian. We…

We prove an upper bound for the asymptotics of counting functions of number fields with nilpotent Galois groups.

In this paper we consider gradings by a finite abelian group $G$ on the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sl}_n(F)$ over an algebraically closed field $F$ of characteristic different from 2 and not dividing $n$.
