An elementary approach is shown which derives the values of the Gauss sums over $\mathbb F_{p^r}$, $p$ odd, of a cubic character without using Davenport-Hasse's theorem. New links between Gauss sums over different field extensions are shown…

We give a complete characterization of all Galois subfields of the generalized Giulietti--Korchm\'aros function fields $\mathcal C_n / \fqn$ for $n\ge 5$. Calculating the genera of the corresponding fixed fields, we find new additions to…

In this paper we discuss applications of our earlier work in studying certain Galois groups and splitting fields of rational functions in $\mathbb Q\left(X_0(N)\right)$ using Hilbert's irreducibility theorem and modular forms. We also…

In this paper, we compute the unit groups and the $2$-class numbers of the Fr\"ohlich's triquadratic fields $\KK=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{2},\sqrt{p},\sqrt{q})$, where $p$ and $q$ are two prime numbers such that ($p\equiv 1 \pmod8$ and $q\equiv 3…

In this paper, we obtain a formula for the special value of Euler-Dirichlet $L$-function $L_E(s,\chi)$ at $s=1$. This leads to another class number formula of $\mathbb{Q}(\mu_{m})^{+}$, the maximal real subfield of $m$th cyclotomic field.…

Let $X$ be a minimal cubic surface over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. The image $\Gamma$ of the Galois group $\operatorname{Gal}(\overline{\mathbb{F}}_q / \mathbb{F}_q)$ in the group $\operatorname{Aut}(\operatorname{Pic}(\overline{X}))$…

We use Macaulay2 for several enriched counts in GW(k). First, we compute the count of lines on a general cubic surface using Macaulay2 over Fp in GW(Fp) for p a prime number and over the rational numbers Q in GW(Q). This gives a new proof…

In this note we present algorithms for computing Euclidean minima of cubic number fields; in particular, we were able to find all norm-Euclidean cubic number fields with discriminants -999 < d < 10000.

Let $k=\mathbb{C}(\!(\epsilon)\!)$ be the field of complex Laurent series. We use Galois descent techniques to show that the simple regular representations of the species of type $(1,\, 4)$ over $k$ are naturally parametrized by the closed…

We introduce and study a class of field extensions that we call pre-Galois; viz. extensions that become Galois after some linearly disjoint Galois base change. Among them are geometrically Galois extensions of k(T), with k a field:…

For each integer $k \in [0,9]$, we count the number of plane cubic curves defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ that do not share a common component and intersect in exactly $k\ \mathbb{F}_q$-rational points. We set this up as a…

We consider the action of the group $\mathrm{PGL}_4(K)$ on the smooth cubic surfaces of $\mathbb{P}^3_K$ ($K$ an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero). We classify, in an explicit way, all the smooth cubic surfaces with non…

This paper presents an algorithm for generating all imaginary and unusual discriminants up to a fixed degree bound that define a quadratic function field of positive 3-rank. Our method makes use of function field adaptations of a method due…

In this paper I explore the structure of the fields of definition of Galois branched covers of the projective line over \bar Q. The first main result states that every mere cover model has a unique minimal field of definition where its…

For each real quadratic field we constructively show the existence of infinitely many exceptional quartic number fields containing that quadratic field. On the other hand, another infinite collection of quartic exceptional fields without…

In this paper we study genus 2 function fields K with degree 3 elliptic subfields. We show that the number of Aut(K)-classes of such subfields of K is 0,1,2, or 4. Also we compute an equation for the locus of such K in the moduli space of…

We prove that all imaginary biquadratic fields and cyclic quartic fields of class number $1$ are Euclidean.

For any integer $k\ge 1$, we show that there are infinitely many complex quadratic fields whose 2-class groups are cyclic of order $2^k$. The proof combines the circle method with an algebraic criterion for a complex quadratic ideal class…

We prove that any semi-simple representation of the Galois group of a number field coming from geometry appears as a subquotient of the ring of regular functions on the pro-algebraic completion of the fundamental group of the projective…

We provide an equivalent condition for the monogenity of the ring of integers of any cyclic cubic field. We show that if a cyclic cubic field is monogenic then it is a simplest cubic field $K_t$ which is the splitting field of a Shanks…
