We study infinite groups interpretable in three families of valued fields: $V$-minimal, power bounded $T$-convex, and $p$-adically closed fields. We show that every such group $G$ has unbounded exponent and that if $G$ is dp-minimal then it…

The fundamental theorem of arithmetic factorizes any integer into a product of prime numbers. The Jordan-Holder theorem dissolves many groups by their normal series which can be refined into composition series. The main topic of this thesis…

In 1878, Jordan proved that if a finite group $G$ has a faithful representation of dimension $n$ over $\mathbb{C}$, then $G$ has a normal abelian subgroup with index bounded above by a function of $n$. The same result fails if one replaces…

In this paper we introduce a new method for finding Galois groups by computer. This is particularly effective in the case of Galois groups of p-extensions ramified at finitely many primes but unramified at the primes above p. Such Galois…

The distribution of $\alpha p$ modulo one, where $p$ runs over the rational primes and $\alpha$ is a fixed irrational real, has received a lot of attention. It is natural to ask for which exponents $\nu>0$ one can establish the infinitude…

This paper is the second in a series devoted to the study of unstable synthetic deformations through the lens of Malcev theories: certain $\infty$-categorical algebraic theories $\mathcal{P}$ with well-behaved $\infty$-categories…

We prove an upper bound for $\ell$-torsion in class groups of almost all fields in certain families of $D_4$-quartic fields. Our key tools are a new Chebotarev density theorem for these families of $D_4$-quartic fields and a lower bound for…

We compute all the moments of the p-torsion in the first step of a filtration of the class group defined by Gerth for cyclic fields of degree p, unconditionally for p=3 and under GRH in general. We show that it satisfies a distribution…

We investigate degree bounds for fields of rational invariants of representations of finite groups. We prove many cases of a bound for $\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z}$ conjectured by Blum-Smith, Garcia, Hidalgo, and Rodriguez. For arbitrary groups,…

This is the second article in a two-part project whose aim is to study algebraic and analytic ranks in $p$-adic families of modular forms. Let $f$ be a newform of weight $2$, square-free level $N$ and trivial character, let $A_f$ be the…

Given a finite group $\Gamma$, we prove results on the distribution of the prime-to-$q|\Gamma|$ part of fundamental groups of $\Gamma$-covers of the projective line $\mathbb P^1_{\mathbb F_q}$ over a finite field $\mathbb F_q$ as…

We prove new cases of the Tate conjecture for abelian varieties over finite fields, extending previous results of Dupuy--Kedlaya--Zureick-Brown, Lenstra--Zarhin, Tankeev, and Zarhin. Notably, our methods allow us to prove the Tate…

We study analogues for the Tate-Shafarevich group for Abelian schemes with everywhere good reduction over higher dimensional bases over finite fields.

For each integer $\ell \geq 1$, we prove an unconditional upper bound on the size of the $\ell$-torsion subgroup of the class group, which holds for all but a zero-density set of field extensions of $\mathbb{Q}$ of degree $d$, for any fixed…

We give a new general technique for constructing and counting number fields with an ideal class group of nontrivial m-rank. Our results can be viewed as providing a way of specializing the Picard group of a variety V over $\mathbb{Q}$ to…

We present several constraints on the absolute Galois groups G_F of fields F containing a primitive pth root of unity, using restrictions on the cohomology of index p normal subgroups from a previous paper by three of the authors. We first…

For any odd prime $p$ and any imaginary quadratic field $K$, the $p$-tower group $G_K$ associated to $K$ is the Galois group over $K$ of the maximal unramified pro-$p$-extension of $K$. This group comes with an action of a finite group…

In this paper, we study two topics. One is the divisibility problem of class groups of quadratic number fields and its connections to algebraic geometry. The other is the construction of Selmer group and Tate-Shafarevich group for an…

We prove the existence of a Galois closure for towers of torsors under finite group schemes over a proper, geometrically connected and geometrically reduced algebraic stack $X$ over a field $k$. This is done by describing the Nori…

In this paper it is shown that for every prime p>5 the dimension of the p-torsion in the Tate-Shafarevich group of E/K can be arbitrarily large, where E is an elliptic curve defined over a number field K, with [K:Q] bounded by a constant…
