We prove an analogue of the celebrated Hall-Higman theorem, which gives a lower bound for the degree of the minimal polynomial of any semisimple element of prime power order $p^{a}$ of a finite classical group in any nontrivial irreducible…

Let $G$ be a subgroup of the symmetric group $S_n$, and let $\delta_G=|S_n/G|^{-1}$ where $|S_n/G|$ is the index of $G$ in $S_n$. Then there are at most $O_{n, \epsilon}(H^{n-1+\delta_G+\epsilon})$ monic integer polynomials of degree $n$…

Let $H$ be a skew field of finite dimension over its center $k$. We solve the Inverse Galois Problem over the field of fractions $H(X)$ of the ring of polynomial functions over $H$ in the variable $X$, if $k$ contains an ample field.

We prove the modularity of minimally ramified ordinary residually reducible p-adic Galois representations of an imaginary quadratic field F under certain assumptions. We first exhibit conditions under which the residual representation is…

In this note we provide a quick proof of the Sklar's Theorem on the existence of copulas by using the generalized inverse functions as in the one dimensional case, but a little more sophisticated.

In this work, we prove that if a triangular algebra $A$ admits a strongly simply connected universal Galois covering for a given presentation then the fundamental group associated to this presentation is free.

We prove an almost minimal R=T theorem for self-dual Galois representations with coefficients in a finite field satisfying a property called rigid. We also prove the rigidity property for a large family of residual Galois representations…

Let $F$ be a $p$-adic field, and $K$ a quadratic extension of $F$. Using Tadic's classification of the unitary dual of $GL(n,K)$, we give the list of irreducible unitary representations of this group distinguished by $GL(n,F)$, in terms of…

We prove the existence of GSpin-valued Galois representations corresponding to cohomological cuspidal automorphic representations of general symplectic groups over totally real number fields under the local hypothesis that there is a…

We consider the problem of existence of representations of topological groupoids on a principal bundle and the classification of such representations up to gauge transformation. Such representations naturally occur in various contexts such…

A superelliptic curve over a DVR ${\mathcal O}$ of residual characteristic $p$ is a curve given by an equation $C:y^n=f(x)$. The purpose of the present article is to describe the Galois representation attached to such a curve under the…

We show how a polar representation of a compact connected Lie group can be linearly determined from its dimension and isotropy subgroup data in the general reducible case.

We provide a short proof of a classical result of Kasteleyn, and prove several variants thereof. One of these results has become key in the parametrization of positroid varieties, and thus deserves the short direct proof which we provide.

We construct an example of a torus $T$ over a field $K$ for which the Galois symbol $K(K; T,T)/n K(K; T,T) \to H^2(K, T[n]\otimes T[n])$ is not injective for some $n$. Here $K(K; T,T)$ is the Milnor $K$-group attached to $T$ introduced by…

This paper studies crystalline representations of G_K with coefficients of any dimension, where K is the unramified extension of Q_p of degree a. We prove a theorem of Fontaine-Laffaille type when \sigma-invariant Hodge-Tate weight less…

Given an elliptic curve $E$ without complex multiplication defined over a number field $K$, consider the image of the Galois representation defined by letting Galois act on the torsion of $E$. Serre's open image theorem implies that there…

The "unit theorem" to which the present mini-course is devoted is a theorem from algebra that has a combinatorial flavour, and that originated in fact from algebraic combinatorics. Beyond a proof, the course also addresses applications, one…

Let R^univ be the universal deformation ring of a residual representation of a local Galois group. Kisin showed that many loci in MaxSpec(R^univ[1/p]) of interest are Zariski closed, and gave a way to study the generic fiber of the…

We prove a generalized version of Kazhdan's theorem for canonical forms on Riemann surfaces. In the classical version, one starts with an ascending sequence $\{S_n \rightarrow S\}$ of finite Galois covers of a hyperbolic Riemann Surface…

We prove a normality theorem for the "true" elementary subgroups of $SL_n(A)$ defined by the ideals of a commutative unital ring $A$. Our result is an analogue of a normality theorem, due to Suslin, for the standard elementary subgroups,…
