Given a $2$-adic field $K$, we give formulae for the number of totally ramified quartic field extensions $L/K$ with a given discriminant valuation and Galois closure group. We use these formulae to prove a refinement of Serre's mass…

Let $ K / k $ be a purely inseparable extension of characteristic $ p> 0 $ and of finite size. We recall that $K/k$ is modular if for every $n \in \mathbb{N}$,$K^{p^n}$ and $k$ are $k\cap K^{p^ n}$-linearly disjoint. A natural…

Recently, much work has been done to investigate Galois module structure of local field extensions, particularly through the use of Galois scaffolds. Given a totally ramified $p$-extension of local fields $L/K$, a Galois Scaffold gives us a…

Let $K$ be a local field and let $L/K$ be a totally ramified Galois extension of degree $p^n$. Being semistable and possessing a Galois scaffold are two conditions which facilitate the computation of the additive Galois module structure of…

Upon quotienting by units, the elements of norm 1 in a number field $K$ form a countable subset of a torus of dimension $r_1 + r_2 - 1$ where $r_1$ and $r_2$ are the numbers of real and pairs of complex embeddings. When $K$ is Galois with…

Malle proposed a conjecture for counting the number of $G$-extensions $L/K$ with discriminant bounded above by $X$, denoted $N(K,G;X)$, where $G$ is a fixed transitive subgroup $G\subset S_n$ and $X$ tends towards infinity. We introduce a…

This paper is a finishing touch to the (over 200 years) {\em classical} `Galois Theory' of {\em arbitrary} finite field extensions, i.e. the goal of it is to describe intermediate subfields of an arbitrary finite field extension via {\em…

- Let p be a prime number and K an algebraic number field. What is the arithmetic structure of Galois extensions L/K having p-adic analytic Galois group $\Gamma$ = Gal(L/K)? The celebrated Tame Fontaine-Mazur conjecture predicts that such…

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 $K$.…
