This article discusses variants of Weber's class number problem in the spirit of arithmetic topology to connect the results of Sinnott--Kisilevsky and Kionke. Let $p$ be a prime number. We first prove the $p$-adic convergence of class…

Author's generalization of one-dimensional class field theory to theory of abelian totally ramified p-extensions of a complete discrete valuation field with arbitrary non-separably p-closed residue field and its applications are described.

We use a generalization of a construction by Ziegler to show that for any field $F$ and any countable collection of countable subsets $A_i \subseteq F, i \in \calI \subset \Z_{>0}$ there exist infinitely many fields $K$ of arbitrary…

Let $k$ be a finite field extension of the function field $\bfF_p(T)$ and $\bar{k}$ its algebraic closure. We count points in projective space $\Bbb P ^{n-1}(\bar{k})$ with given height and of fixed degree $d$ over the field $k$. If…

Let $F$ be a totally real number field of class number one, and let $K$ be a CM-field with $F$ as its maximal real subfield. For each positive integer $N$, we construct a class group of certain binary quadratic forms over $F$ which is…

It is shown that the sum of class numbers of orders in totally complex quartic fields with no real quadratic subfield obeys an asymptotic law similar to the prime numbers, as the bound on the regulators tends to infinity. Here only orders…

We reduce the classification of finite extensions of function fields (of curves over finite fields) with the same class number to a finite computation; complete this computation in all cases except when both curves have base field…

Let K be a function field, let f be a rational function of degree d at least 2 defined over K, and suppose that f is not isotrivial. In this paper, we show that a point P in P^1(Kbar) has f-canonical height zero if and only if P is…

We obtain several finiteness results for the unramified cohomology of function fields of algebraic varieties defined over fields of type (F'_m), a class that includes algebraically closed fields, finite fields, local fields, and some higher…

Let $k = \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt {-m})$ and $p \geq 3$ split in $k$. We prove new properties of the $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extensions $K/k$, distinct from the cyclotomic one; we do not assume $K/k$ totally ramified, nor the triviality of the $p$-class…

Let $k$ be a field finitely generated over the finite field $\mathbb F_p$ of odd characteristic $p$. For any K3 surface $X$ over $k$ we prove that the prime to $p$ component of the cokernel of the natural map $Br(k)\to Br(X)$ is finite.

Let $q$ be a prime power. We estimate the number of tuples of degree bounded monic polynomials $(Q_1,\ldots,Q_v) \in (\mathbb{F}_q[z])^v$ that satisfy given pairwise coprimality conditions. We show how this generalises from monic…

Let $K$ be a number field and $d_K$ the absolute value of the discrimant of $K/\mathbb{Q}$. We consider the root discriminant $d_L^{\frac{1}{[L:\mathbb{Q}]}}$ of extensions $L/K$. We show that for any $N>0$ and any positive integer n, the…

Let us consider a generalized Artin-Schreier algebraic function field extension $F$ of the rational function field $\F_{p^n}(x)$ defined over the finite field extension $K=\F_{p^n}$ of the prime field $\F_p$. We assume that $K$ is…

We first find a sufficient condition for a product of theta constants to be a Siegel modular function of a given even level. And, when $K_{(2p)}$ denotes the ray class field of $K=\mathbb{Q}(e^{2\pi i/5})$ modulo $2p$ for an odd prime $p$,…

Let K denote a finite extension of Qp. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for an infinite totally wildly ramified extension L/K to be strictly APF in the sense of Fontaine-Wintenberger. Our conditions are phrased in terms of the…

Let $p$ be a prime number. If a number field $k$ has at least one complex place, there are infinitely many $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extensions over $k$, and some authors studied the behavior of Iwasawa invariants of these $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extensions.…

This article is the second installment in a series on the Berkovich ramification locus for nonconstant rational functions f: P^1 -> P^1. Here we show the ramification locus of f is contained in a strong tubular neighborhood of finite radius…

We investigate a novel geometric Iwasawa theory for $\mathbf{Z}_p$-extensions of function fields over a perfect field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$ by replacing the usual study of $p$-torsion in class groups with the study of $p$-torsion…

In this paper, we consider rational functions $f$ with some minor restrictions over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q^n},$ where $q=p^k$ for some prime $p$ and positive integer $k$. We establish a sufficient condition for the existence of a…
