Recently the second author has associated a finite $\F_q[T]$-module $H$ to the Carlitz module over a finite extension of $\F_q(T)$. This module is an analogue of the ideal class group of a number field. In this paper we study the Galois…

We prove a kind of reflection principle for certain non-archimedean $L$-series in positive characteristic. We also prove the pseudo-cyclicity and pseudo-nullity of certain several variable generalizations of the class modules introduced by…

We generalize some results of Greither and Popescu to a geometric Galois cover $X\rightarrow Y$ which appears naturally for example in extensions generated by $\mathfrak{p}^n$-torsion points of a rank 1 normalized Drinfeld module (i.e. in…

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

Recently we have used the Carlitz exponential map to define a finitely generated submodule of the Carlitz module having the right properties to be a function field analogue of the group of units in a number field. Similarly, we constructed…

We derive the group structure for cyclotomic function fields obtained by applying the Carlitz action for extensions of an initial constant field. The tame and wild structures are isolated to describe the Galois action on differentials. We…

The main object of this paper is the minus class groups associated to CM-fields as Galois modules. In a previous article of the authors, we introduced a notion of equivalence for modules and determined the equivalence classes of the minus…

We prove a function field analogue of the Herbrand-Ribet theorem on cyclotomic number fields. The Herbrand-Ribet theorem can be interpreted as a result about cohomology with $\mu_p$-coefficients over the splitting field of $\mu_p$, and in…

Let $K$ be a function field of one variable over a finite field $\mathbb{F}$. Weil's celebrated theorem states that the congruent zeta function of $K/\mathbb{F}$ is determined by the $\mathrm{Gal}(\overline{\mathbb{F}}/\mathbb{F})$-module…

We present several new examples of reflection principles which apply to both class groups of number fields and picard groups of of curves over $\mathbb{P}^{1}/\mathbb{F}_{p}$. This proves a conjecture of Lemmermeyer about equality of 2-rank…

We prove an Ax-Lindemann-Weierstrass differential transcendence result for Euler's gamma function, namely that the functions $\Gamma(\nu-\zeta_1(\nu)),\dots,\Gamma(\nu-\zeta_n(\nu))$ are differentially independent over the field of rational…

This is a concise survey of links between Galois module theory and class field theory (CFT). It explores various uses of CFT in Galois module theory, it comments on the absence of CFT in contexts where it might be expected to play a role…

In this paper, we study the fine Selmer groups attached to a Galois module defined over a commutative complete Noetherian ring with finite residue field of characteristic p. Namely, we are interested in its properties upon taking residual…

In this paper, we introduce a Carlitz module analogue of Mersenne primes, and prove Carlitz module analogues of several classical results concerning Mersenne primes. In contrast to the classical case, we can show that there are infinitely…

We prove that two arithmetically significant extensions of a field F coincide if and only if the Witt ring WF is a group ring Z/n[G]. Furthermore, working modulo squares with Galois groups which are 2-groups, we establish a theorem…

Suppose O is a complete discrete valuation ring of positive characteristic with perfect residue field. The category of finite flat strict modules was introduced recently by Faltings and appears as an equal characteristic analogue of the…

We show that Galois theory of cyclotomic number fields provides a powerful tool to construct systematically integer-valued matrices commuting with the modular matrix S, as well as automorphisms of the fusion rules. Both of these…

We compare two approaches to the study of Galois module structures: on the one hand factor equivalence, a technique that has been used by Fr\"ohlich and others to investigate the Galois module structure of rings of integers of number fields…

In an earlier article we proved the existence of a canonical Kolyvagin derivative homomorphism between the modules of Euler and Kolyvagin systems (in any given rank) that are associated to $p$-adic representations over number fields. We now…

The aim of this note is to gather formal similarities between two apparently different functions; {\em Euler's function} $\Gamma$ and {\em Anderson-Thakur function} $\omega$. We discuss these similarities in the framework of the {\em…
