We give formulas for the number of polynomials over a finite field with given root multiplicities, in particular in cases when the formula is surprisingly simple (a power of q). Besides this concrete interpretation, we also prove an…

Using Shimura's reciprocity law, we calculate the Galois action on the special values of theta functions associated to primitive Dirichlet characters of odd conductor, normalised by the Dedekind eta function, at the point i. As a…

If k is a commutative field and G a reductive (connected) algebraic group over k, we give bounds for the orders of the finite subgroups of G(k); these bounds depends on the type of G and on the Galois groups of the cyclotomic extensions of…

We compute the reductions of irreducible crystalline two-dimensional representations of $G_{\mathbf{Q}_p}$ of slope 1, for primes $p \geq 5$, and all weights. We describe the semisimplification of the reductions completely. In particular,…

We study a symplectic variant of algebraic $K$-theory of the integers, which comes equipped with a canonical action of the absolute Galois group of $\mathbf{Q}$. We compute this action explicitly. The representations we see are extensions…

We give generating functions for Gauss sums for finite general linear and unitary groups. For the general linear case only our method of proof is new, but we deduce a bound on Kloosterman sums which is sometimes sharper than Deligne's bound…

In this article, we study mappings acting between domains of two factor spaces by certain groups of M\"{o}bius automorphisms of the unit ball that act discontinuously and do not have fixed points. For such mappings, we have established…

We obtain convergent inverse factorial expansions for the sum $S_n(a,b;c)$ of the first $n$ terms of the Gauss hypergeometric function of unit argument valid for $n\geq 1$. The form of these expansions depends on the location of the…

We can associate an admissible unitary representation $\Pi(\rho_p)$ of $\GL_2(\Q_p)$ with every local Galois representation $\rho_p$ by the $p$-adic local Langlands correspondence. If $\rho_p$ is ordinary, we prove local and global…

We present the most general actions of a single scalar field and two scalar fields coupled to gravity, consistent with second order field equations in four dimensions, possessing local scale invariance. We apply two different methods to…

We estimate the local laws of the distribution of the middle prime factor of an integer, defined according to multiplicity or not. An asymptotic estimate with effective remainder is provided for a wide range of values. In particular this…

It is shown that the recently introduced lower cone distribution function and the associated set-valued multivariate quantile generate a Galois connection between a complete lattice of closed convex sets and the intervall [0,1]. This…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety over $\mathbb{Q}$ of dimension $g$ such that the image of its associated absolute Galois representation $\rho_A$ is open in $\operatorname{GSp}_{2g}(\hat{\mathbb{Z}})$. We investigate the arithmetic of the…

We outline a project to study the Galois action on a class of modular graphs (special type of dessins) which arise as the dual graphs of the sphere triangulations of non-negative curvature, classified by Thurston. Because of their…

Galton's rank order statistic is one of the oldest statistical tools for two-sample comparisons. It is also a very natural index to measure departures from stochastic dominance. Yet, its asymptotic behaviour has been investigated only…

A polynomial time algorithm to give a complete description of all subfields of a given number field was given in an article by van Hoeij et al. This article reports on a massive speedup of this algorithm. This is primary achieved by our new…

A rigorous way to obtain sharp bounds for Stokes constants is introduced and illustrated on a concrete problem arising in applications.

It is well known that for a field theory with the Chern-Simons action, expectation values of Wilson line operators are topological invariants. The standard result is expressed in terms of the Gaussian linkings of closed curves defining the…

We examine general aspects of parity functions arising in rational conformal field theories, as a result of Galois theoretic properties of modular transformations. We focus more specifically on parity functions associated with affine Lie…

In this exposition we discuss the theory of algebraic extensions of valued fields. Our approach is mostly through Galois theory. Most of the results are well-known, but some are new. No previous knowledge on the theory of valuations is…
