In the first part of this paper we try to explain to a general mathematical audience some of the remarkable web of conjectures linking representations of Galois groups with algebraic geometry, complex analysis and discrete subgroups of Lie…
In this paper, we prove a new characterization theorem for Picard-Vessiot extensions whose differential Galois groups have solvable identity components.
In Proposition I of "Memoire sur les conditions de resolubilite des equations par radicaux", Galois established that any intermediate extension of the splitting field of a polynomial with rational coefficients is the fixed field of its…
This note presents Galois theory for finite fields. It was written as a handout for the MAT401 course ``Polynomial equations and fields'' taught at the University of Toronto in Spring 2026. We use without proofs some basic properties of…
We present short elementary proofs of the well-known Ruffini-Abel-Galois theorems on insolvability of algebraic equations in radicals. These proofs are obtained from existing expositions by stripping away material not required for the…
This paper is purely expository. We present short elementary proofs of * the Gauss Theorem on constructibility of regular polygons; * the existence of a cubic equation unsolvable in real radicals; * the existence of a quintic equation…
A simple proof of the celebrated theorem of Lee and Yang is attempted in this short note.
We consider the Kisin variety associated to a $n$-dimensional absolutely irreducible mod $p$ Galois representation $\bar\rho$ of a $p$-adic field $K$ and a cocharacter $\mu$. Kisin conjectured that the Kisin variety is connected in this…
We prove a discretized Product Theorem for general simple Lie groups, in the spirit of Bourgain's Discretized Sum-Product Theorem.
We give an algebraic proof for a theorem of Mislin in the case of cohomology of saturated fusion systems defined on p-groups when p is odd. Some applications of this theorem to block algebras of finite groups are also given.
In the spirit of an earlier result of M\"uller on the Heisenberg group we prove a restriction theorem on a certain class of two step nilpotent Lie groups. Our result extends that of M\"uller also in the framework of the Heisenberg group.
In this paper, we study the Galois representations attached to products of Drinfeld modules. As an analogue of Serre's classical result on the images of Galois representations associated with products of elliptic curves, we prove that for…
We prove the existence of $\mathrm{GSpin}_{2n}$-valued Galois representations corresponding to cohomological cuspidal automorphic representations of certain quasi-split forms of $\mathrm{GSO}_{2n}$ under the local hypotheses that there is a…
We obtain character formulas of minimal affinizations of representations of quantum groups when the underlying simple Lie algebra is orthogonal and the support of the highest weight is contained in the first three nodes of the Dynkin…
We compute explicit reductions of crystalline representations of the absolute Galois group $\text{Gal}(\overline{\mathbb{Q}}_p/\mathbb{Q}_{p^f})$ with labeled Hodge-Tate weights in the range $p+2\le k_{0}\le 2p-4$ and $2\le k_i\le p-3$ for…
In this note, we present a simple non-directed graph proof of Sharkovsky's theorem which is different from the one given in [2].
This note is a development of our two previous papers, arXiv:1212.3392v1 and 1306.3660v1. The fundamental question is whether there exists a Galois theory, in which the Galois group is a quantum group. For a linear equations with respect to…
This note contains a Stone-style representation theorem for compact Hausdorff spaces.
We propose an analytical approach to the Galois theory of singular regular linear q-difference systems. We use Tannaka duality along with Birkhoff's classification scheme with the connection matrix to define and describe their Galois…
Let $K$ be a number field, $A/K$ be an absolutely simple abelian variety of CM type, and $\ell$ be a prime number. We give explicit bounds on the degree over $K$ of the division fields $K(A[\ell^n])$, and when $A$ is an elliptic curve we…
