Let K be F_q((T)), or more generally any field of characteristic p equipped with a valuation having a finite residue field of q elements. Then a polynomial f(x) in K[x] having k+1 nonzero coefficients has at most q^k distinct zeros in K. We…

We address the question of whether it may be worthwhile to convert certain, now classical, NP-complete problems to one of a smaller number of kernel NP-complete problems. In particular, we show that Karp's classical set of 21 NP-complete…

Using aritmethic conditions on affine semigroups we prove that for a simplicial toric variety of codimension 2 the property of being a set-theoretic complete intersection on binomials in characteristic $p$ holds either for all primes $p$,…

We study valued fields equipped with an automorphism. We prove that all of them have an extension admitting an equivariant cross-section of the valuation. In residual characteristic zero, and in the presence of such a cross-section, we show…

Let R be a discrete valuation ring of unequal characteristic which contains a primitive p^2-th root of unity. If K is the fraction field of R, it is well known that (Z/p^2 Z)_K is isomorphic to \mu_{p^2,K}. We prove that any finite and flat…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p. Let X(p^e;N) be the curve parameterizing elliptic curves with full level N structure (where p does not divide N) and full level p^e Igusa structure. By modular curve, we mean a…

Let K be a field and G a finite group. The question of 'admissibility' of G over K was originally posed by Schacher, who gave partial results in the case K = Q. In this paper, we give necessary conditions for admissibility of a finite group…

We consider problems where the input is a set of points in the plane and an integer $k$, and the task is to find a subset $S$ of the input points of size $k$ such that $S$ satisfies some property. We focus on properties that depend only on…

We study the computational complexity of fundamental problems over the $p$-adic numbers ${\mathbb Q}_p$ and the $p$-adic integers ${\mathbb Z}_p$. Gu\'epin, Haase, and Worrell proved that checking satisfiability of systems of linear…

Let Z{t} be the ring of arithmetic power series that converge on the complex open unit disc. A classical result of Harbater asserts that every finite group occurs as a Galois group over the quotient field of Z{t}. We strengthen this by…

Fix any field $K$ of characteristic $p$ such that $[K:K^p]$ is finite. We discuss excellence for Noetherian domains whose fraction field is $K$, showing for example, that $R$ is excellent if and only if the Frobenius map is finite on $R$.…

We prove a conjecture of J. Carlson, N. Mazza and J. Th\'evenaz; namely, we will prove that if $G$ is a finite $p$-nilpotent group which contains a non-cyclic elementary Abelian $p$-subgroup and $k$ is an algebraically closed field of…

Let $F$ be a non-Archimedean local field and let $p$ be the residual characteristic of $F$. Let $G=GL_2(F)$ and let $P$ be a Borel subgroup of $G$. In this paper we study the restriction of irreducible representations of $G$ on $E$-vector…

Strictly proper kernel scores are well-known tool in probabilistic forecasting, while characteristic kernels have been extensively investigated in the machine learning literature. We first show that both notions coincide, so that insights…

The aim of this short paper is to offer a complete characterization of all (not necessarily surjective) isometric embeddings of the Wasserstein space $\mathcal{W}_p(\mathcal{X})$, where $\mathcal{X}$ is a countable discrete metric space and…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of odd characteristic. We describe derivations of a large class of quantizations of affine normal Poisson varieties over k.

In all forms of the local Langlands program the abelian category of smooth representations of p-adic groups G in vector spaces over a field k plays a central role. Of particular interest are its finiteness properties. If the field k has…

Let K be a field of characteristic p>0, and let q be a power of p. We determine all polynomials f in K[t]\K[t^p] of degree q(q-1)/2 such that the Galois group of f(t)-u over K(u) has a transitive normal subgroup isomorphic to PSL_2(q),…

We give a construction of a large first-order definable family of subrings of finitely generated fields $K$ of any characteristic. We deduce that for any such $K$ there exists a first-order sentence $\varphi_K$ characterising $K$ in the…

In this paper, we characterize NIP henselian valued fields modulo the theory of their residue field, both in an algebraic and in a model-theoretic way. Assuming the conjecture that every infinite NIP field is either separably closed, real…
