In the preprint we present an outline of the one dimensional version of topological Galois theory. The theory studies topological obstruction to solvability of equations "in finite terms" (i.e. to their solvabilty by radicals, by elementary…

We study the basic Galois connection induced by the "satisfaction" relation between external operations $A^n\rightarrow B$ defined on a set $A$ and valued in a possibly different set $B$ on the one hand, and ordered pairs $(R,S)$ of…

In this paper, we study modules over quotient spaces of certain categorified fiber bundles. These are understood as modules over entwining structures involving a small $K$-linear category $\mathcal D$ and a $K$-coalgebra $C$. We obtain…

This paper extends Hopf-Galois theory to infinite field extensions and provides a natural definition of subextensions. For separable (possibly infinite) Hopf-Galois extensions, it provides a Galois correspondence. This correspondence also…

The notion of a separable extension is an important concept in Galois theory. Traditionally, this concept is introduced using the minimal polynomial and the formal derivative. In this work, we present an alternative approach to this…

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…

The theory of factor-equivalence of integral lattices establishes a far-reaching relationship between the Galois module structure of the unit group of the ring of integers of a number field and its arithmetic. For a number field $K$ that is…

This work proves that the process of gluing finite lattices to form a larger lattice is bijective, that is each lattice is the glued sum of a unique system of finite lattices, provided the class of lattices is constrained to modular,…

Let $E/F$ be a quadratic extension of p-adic fields. We prove that every smooth irreducible ladder representation of the group $GL_n(E)$ which is contragredient to its own Galois conjugate, possesses the expected distinction properties…

In this paper we define operations of preradicals of any abelian category. We define idempotent preradicals and radicals. We prove that every adjoint pair between abelian categories induces a Galois connection between the corresponding…

We define a variant of normal basis, called a {\em Galois scaffolding}, that allows for an easy determination of valuation, and has implications for Galois module structure. We identify fully ramified, elementary abelian extensions of local…

It is shown that the coincidence isometries of certain modules in Euclidean $n$-space can be decomposed into a product of at most $n$ coincidence reflections defined by their non-zero elements. This generalizes previous results obtained for…

A conceptually simple model for strongly interacting compact U(1) lattice gauge theory is expressed as operators acting on qubits. The number of independent gauge links is reduced to its minimum through the use of Gauss's law. The model can…

We show the close connection between appearingly different Galois theories for comodules introduced recently in [J. G\'omez-Torrecillas and J. Vercruysse, Comatrix corings and Galois Comodules over firm rings, arXiv:math.RA/0509106.] and…

We consider the Grothendieck--Teichm\"uller group under a new aspect. Using real algebraic geometry and web theory we show that it preserves dihedral symmetry relations, present in the fundamental groupoids of configuration spaces of marked…

Let K/F be a cyclic field extension of odd prime degree. We consider Galois embedding problems involving Galois groups with common quotient Gal(K/F) such that corresponding normal subgroups are indecomposable Fp[Gal(K/F)]-modules. For these…

A Galois unitary is a generalization of the notion of anti-unitary operators. They act only on those vectors in Hilbert space whose entries belong to some chosen number field. For Mutually Unbiased Bases the relevant number field is a…

Let $E/F$ be a cyclic Galois extension of degree $p^l$ with Galois group $G$. It is shown that the Galois module structure of both sides of the Kummer pairing (for Kummer extensions of $E$) are the same. In other words, we show that the…

We consider connections between similar sublattices and coincidence site lattices (CSLs), and more generally between similar submodules and coincidence site modules of general (free) $\mathbb{Z}$-modules in $\mathbb{R}^d$. In particular, we…

The concept of edit distance, which dates back to the 1960s in the context of comparing word strings, has since found numerous applications with various adaptations in computer science, computational biology, and applied topology. By…
