For an elliptic curve defined over a number field, the absolute Galois group acts on the group of torsion points of the elliptic curve, giving rise to a Galois representation in $\mathrm{GL}_2(\hat{\mathbb{Z}})$. The obstructions to the…
Numerical homotopy continuation of solutions to polynomial equations is the foundation for numerical algebraic geometry, whose development has been driven by applications of mathematics. We use numerical homotopy continuation to investigate…
In this work, linearized multivariate skew polynomials over division rings are introduced. Such polynomials are right linear over the corresponding centralizer and generalize linearized polynomial rings over finite fields, group rings or…
We study the inverse Galois problem with local conditions. In particular, we ask whether every finite group occurs as the Galois group of a Galois extension of $\mathbb{Q}$ all of whose decomposition groups are cyclic (resp., abelian). This…
For many finite groups, the Inverse Galois Problem can be approached through modular/automorphic Galois representations. This is a report explaining the basic strategy, ideas and methods behind some recent results. It focusses mostly on the…
In this paper, we introduce \textit{splitting numbers} of subvarieties in a smooth variety for a Galois cover, and prove that the splitting numbers are invariant under certain homeomorphisms. By splitting numbers, we give a necessary and…
A unified splitting result for Ext calculated in the category of modules over a Leibniz algebra is given for the case where coefficients are either both symmetric modules or both antisymmetric modules. This is a generalization of results of…
This paper studies Galois extensions over real quadratic number fields or cyclotomic number fields ramified only at one prime. In both cases, the ray class groups are computed, and they give restrictions on the finite groups that can occur…
We compute explicit polynomials having the sporadic Higman-Sims group HS and its automorphism group Aut(HS) as Galois groups over the rational function field Q(t).
Using the mixed Lie algebras of Lazard, we extend the results of the first author on mild groups to the case p=2. In particular, we show that for any finite set S_0 of odd rational primes we can find a finite set S of odd rational primes…
We present an algorithm which, given a connected smooth projective curve $X$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$ and its Hasse--Witt matrix, as well as a positive integer $n$, computes all \'etale Galois covers of $X$…
We prove an effective form of Hilbert's irreducibility theorem for polynomials over a global field $K$. More precisely, we give effective bounds for the number of specializations $t\in \mathcal{O}_K$ that do not preserve the irreducibility…
We investigate symmetric quotient algebras of symmetric algebras, with an emphasis on finite group algebras over a complete discrete valuation ring ${\mathcal O}$. Using elementary methods, we show that if an ordinary irreducible character…
We introduce a new optimization problem regarding embeddings of a graph into a Euclidean space and discuss its relation to the two, mutually dual, optimizations problems introduced by Goering-Helmberg-Wappler. We prove that the Laplace…
A celebrated theorem of P.M.Cohn says that for any two division rings (not necessarily finite dimensional) over a field F, their amalgamated product over F is a domain which can be embedded in a division ring. Note that even with the two…
Given a number field $F$, a finite group $G$ and an indeterminate $T$, {\it{a $G$-parametric extension over $F$}} is a finite Galois extension $E/F(T)$ with Galois group $G$ and $E/F$ regular that has all the Galois extensions of $F$ with…
In this paper I generalize the notion of a polynomial over an ordered field to that of a naked polynomial over a non-Archimedean ordered field, subsequently showing that the notion of a naked polynomial ring forms an Euclidean domain. This…
We classify all cubic extensions of any field of arbitrary characteristic, up to isomorphism, via an explicit construction involving three fundamental types of cubic forms. We deduce a classification of any Galois cubic extension of a…
For a finite group $G$ and a sufficiently large (but fixed) prime power $q$ coprime to $G$ we obtain asymptotics for the number of regular Galois extensions $L/ \mathbb{F}_q(t)$, with $\mathrm{Gal}(L/\mathbb{F}_q(t)) \cong G$, ramified at a…
Let $K$ be a number field and let $G$ be a finitely generated subgroup of $K^\times$. For all but finitely many primes $\mathfrak p$ of $K$, the reduction $(G \bmod \mathfrak p)$ generates a well-defined subgroup of the multiplicative group…
