Given a semisimple group over a local field of residual characteristic p, its topological group of rational points admits maximal pro-p-subgroups. Quasi-split simply-connected semisimple groups can be described in the combinatorial terms of…
We provide algorithms for performing computations in generalized numerical semigroups, that is, submonoids of $\mathbb{N}^{d}$ with finite complement in $\mathbb{N}^{d}$. These semigroups are affine semigroups, which in particular implies…
Let $m,n$ be positive integers and $p$ a prime. We denote by $\nu(G)$ an extension of the non-abelian tensor square $G \otimes G$ by $G \times G$. We prove that if $G$ is a residually finite group satisfying some non-trivial identity $f…
A finite \'etale map between irreducible, normal varieties is called tame, if it is tamely ramified with respect to all partial compactifications whose boundary is the support of a strict normal crossings divisor. We prove that if the…
Let $K$ be a complete discretely valued field with algebraically closed residue field and let $\mathfrak C$ be a smooth projective and geometrically connected algebraic $K$-curve of genus $g$. Assume that $g\geq 2$, so that there exists a…
In this paper we show there exists an infinite family of number fields $L$, Galois over $\mathbb{Q}$, for which the smallest prime $p$ of $\mathbb{Q}$ which splits completely in $L$ has size at least $( \log(|D_L|) )^{2+o(1)}$. This gives a…
We interpret Galois covers in terms of particular monoidal functors, extending the correspondence between torsors and fiber functors. As applications we characterize tame $G$-covers between normal varieties for finite and \'etale group…
The famous Tits' alternative states that a linear group either contains a nonabelian free group or is soluble-by-(locally finite). We study in this paper similar alternatives in pseudofinite groups. We show for instance that an…
We extend the characterization of abelian groups with ramification structures given by Garion and Penegini to finite nilpotent groups whose Sylow $p$-subgroups have a `nice power structure', including regular $p$-groups, powerful $p$-groups…
The smallest non-abelian p-groups play a fundamental role in the theory of Galois p-extensions. We illustrate this by highlighting their role in the definition of the norm residue map in Galois cohomology. We then determine how often these…
Let $K/\mathbb{Q}$ be a finitely generated field of characteristic zero and $X/K$ a smooth projective variety. Fix $q\in\mathbb{N}$. For every prime number $\ell$ let $\rho_\ell$ be the representation of $\mathrm{Gal}(K)$ on the \'etale…
Let p be a rational prime, k be a perfect field of characteristic p and K be a finite totally ramified extension of the fraction field of the Witt ring of k. Let G be a finite flat commutative group scheme over O_K killed by some p-power.…
We study dp-minimal infinite profinite groups that are equipped with a uniformly definable fundamental system of open subgroups. We show that these groups have an open subgroup $A$ such that either $A$ is a direct product of countably many…
If G and H are finitely generated, residually nilpotent metabelian groups, H is termed para-G if there is a homomorphism of G into H which induces an isomorphism between the corresponding terms of their lower central quotient groups. We…
Let $q=p^s$ be a prime power, $F$ a field containing a root of unity of order $q$, and $G_F$ its absolute Galois group. We determine a new canonical quotient $\mathrm{Gal}(F_{(3)}/F)$ of $G_F$ which encodes the full mod-$q$ cohomology ring…
Let $K$ be a number field and $G$ a finite abelian group. We study the asymptotic behaviour of the number of tamely ramified $G$-extensions of $K$ with ring of integers of fixed realisable class as a Galois module.
Suppose $G$ is a finitely presented group that is hyperbolic relative to ${\bf P}$ a finite collection of 1-ended finitely generated proper subgroups of $G$. If $G$ and the ${\bf P}$ are 1-ended and the boundary $\partial (G,{\bf P})$ has…
Given a Hilbertian field $k$ and a finite set $\mathcal{S}$ of Krull valuations of $k$, we show that every finite split embedding problem $G \rightarrow {\rm{Gal}}(L/k)$ over $k$ with abelian kernel has a solu\-tion ${\rm{Gal}}(F/k)…
Let $\mathcal K$ be a field of formal Laurent series with coefficients in a finite field of characteristic $p$. For $M\ge 1$, let $\mathcal G_{<p,M}$ be the maximal quotient of the Galois group of $\mathcal K$ of period $p^M$ and nilpotent…
