Let $L/K$ be a Galois extension of number fields with Galois group $G$. We discuss a new method to obtain elements in $\mathbb{Z}[G]$ which annihilate the class group of $L$. Using this method, we obtain annihilators of class groups of…

There are well known algorithms to compute the class group of the maximal order $\mathcal{O}_K$ of a number field $K$ and the group of invertible ideal classes of a non-maximal order $R$. In this paper we explain how to compute also the…

This paper contributes to the theory of orders of number fields. This paper defines a notion of "ray class group" associated to an arbitrary order in a number field together with an arbitrary ray class modulus for that order (including…

We examine when division algebras can share common splitting fields of certain types. In particular, we show that one can find fields for which one has infinitely many Brauer classes of the same index and period at least 3, all…

We draw concrete consequences from our arithmetic duality for two-dimensional local rings with perfect residue field. These consequences include class field theory, Hasse principles for coverings and $K_{2}$ and a duality between divisor…

Let $K$ be a quartic CM field, that is, a totally imaginary quadratic extension of a real quadratic number field. In a 1962 article titled On the classfields obtained by complex multiplication of abelian varieties, Shimura considered a…

A method of constructing Cohomological Field Theories (CohFTs) with unit using minimal classes on the moduli spaces of curves is developed. As a simple consequence, CohFTs with unit are found which take values outside of the tautological…

Using the action of the Galois group of a normal extension of number fields, we generalize and symmetrize various fundamental statements in algebra and algebraic number theory concerning splitting types of prime ideals, factorization types…

We extend the unramified class field theory for arithmetic schemes of K. Kato and S. Saito to the tame case. Let $X$ be a regular proper arithmetic scheme and let $D$ be a divisor on $X$ whose vertical irreducible components are normal…

We prove a "discrete analogue" for Taelman's class modules of certain Conjectures formulated by R. Greenberg for cyclotomic fields.

This paper continues the study of K-theoretic invariants for semigroup C*-algebras attached to ax+b-semigroups over rings of algebraic integers in number fields. We show that from the semigroup C*-algebra together with its canonical…

Fix a non-negative integer g and a positive integer I dividing 2g-2. For any Henselian, discretely valued field K whose residue field is perfect and admits a degree I cyclic extension, we construct a curve C over K of genus g and index I.…

Cyclic number fields of odd prime degree are constructed as ray class fields over the rational number field. They are collected in multiplets sharing a common conductor and discriminant. The algorithms are implemented in Magma and applied…

This paper classifies the blocks of the cyclotomic Hecke algebras of type G(r,1,n) over an arbitrary field. Rather than working with the Hecke algebras directly we work instead with the cyclotomic Schur algebras. The advantage of these…

We propose a modification of the predictions of the Cohen--Lenstra heuristic for class groups of number fields in the case where roots of unity are present in the base field. As evidence for this modified formula we provide a large set of…

For squarefree $d>1$, let $M$ denote the ring class field for the order $Z[\sqrt{-3d}]$ in $F=Q(\sqrt{-3d})$. Hasse proved that $3$ divides the class number of $F$ if and only if there exists a cubic extension $E$ of $Q$ such that $E$ and…

This paper defines and develops cycle indices for the finite classical groups. These tools are then applied to study properties of a random matrix chosen uniformly from one of these groups. Properties studied by this technique will include…

Based on results obtained in a companion paper [MSRI preprint 1997-002], we construct groups of special $S$--units for function fields of characteristic $p>0$, and show that they satisfy Gras--type Conjectures. We use these results in order…

We compute the Z-rank of the subgroup of elements of the multiplicative group of a number field K that are norms from every finite level of the cyclotomic Z{\ell}-extension of K. Thus we compare its {\ell}-adification with the group of…

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…
