Let $p$ be an odd prime number. We construct explicit uniformizers for the totally ramified extension $\mathbb{Q}_p(\zeta_{p^2},\sqrt[p]{p})$ of the field of $p$-adic numbers $\mathbb{Q}_p$, where $\zeta_{p^2}$ is a primitive $p^2$-th root…
Answering a question of Browkin, we provide a new unconditional proof that the Dedekind zeta function of a number field $L$ has infinitely many nontrivial zeros of multiplicity at least 2 if $L$ has a subfield $K$ for which $L/K$ is a…
We consider certain Massey products in the cohomology of a Galois extension of fields with coefficients in p-power roots of unity. We prove formulas for these products both in general and in the special case that the Galois extension in…
In this paper we give a short, elementary proof of the following too extreme cases of the Leopoldt conjecture: the case when $\K/\Q$ is a solvable extension and the case when it is a totally real extension in which $p$ splits completely.…
For a number field K and a finite abelian group G, we determine the probabilities of various local completions of a random G-extension of K when extensions are ordered by conductor. In particular, for a fixed prime p of K, we determine the…
Let $K$ be a number field defined by a monic irreducible polynomial $F(X) \in \mathbb{Z}[X]$, $p$ a fixed rational prime, and $\nu_p$ the discrete valuation associated to $p$. Assume that $\overline{F}(X)$ factors modulo $p$ into the…
Given a $(0,p)$-mixed characteristic complete discrete valued field $\mathcal{K}$ we define a class of finite field extensions called \emph{pseudo-perfect} extensions such that the natural restriction map on the mod-$p$ Milnor $K$-groups is…
Some computations made about the Riemann Hypothesis and in particular, the verification that zeroes of zeta belong on the critical line and the extension of zero-free region are useful to get better effective estimates of number theory…
The author has previously extended the theory of regular and irregular primes to the setting of arbitrary totally real number fields. It has been conjectured that the Bernoulli numbers, or alternatively the values of the Riemann zeta…
Let L/F be a dihedral extension of degree 2p, where p is an odd prime. Let K/F and k/F be subextensions of L/F with degrees p and 2, respectively. Then we will study relations between the p-ranks of the class groups Cl(K) and Cl(k).
The purpose of this note is to introduce a new approach to the study of one of the most basic and seemingly intractable problems in partition theory, namely the conjecture that the partition function $p(n)$ is equidistributed modulo 2. Our…
For a real abelian field and for an odd prime p splitting in the field, we study a map between the p-parts of the class group and of the quotient of units modulo Cyclotomic Units, respectively, along the cyclotomic Z_p-extension of the…
We consider a family of isometric extensions of the full shift on p symbols (for p a prime) parametrized by a probability space. Using Heath-Brown's work on the Artin conjecture, it is shown that for all but two primes p the set of limit…
Let S/R be a finite extension of discrete valuation rings of characteristic p>0, and suppose that the corresponding extension L/K of fields of fractions is separable and is H-Galois for some K-Hopf algebra H. Let D_{S/R} be the different of…
Let $p$ be an odd prime, $F$ a field with a primitive $p^2$th root of unity, and $E=F(\sqrt[p]{b_1},\sqrt[p]{b_2})$ an elementary abelian extension of degree $p^2$. This paper studies the cohomological kernel $H^n(E/F,{\mathbb Z}/p{\mathbb…
Let $p$ be an odd prime, and let $K/K_0$ be a quadratic extension of number fields. Denote by $K_\pm$ the maximal $\mathbb{Z}_p$-power extensions of $K$ that are Galois over $K_0$, with $K_+$ abelian over $K_0$ and $K_-$ dihedral over…
In this note, we consider meromorphic univalent functions $f(z)$ in the unit disc with a simple pole at $z=p\in(0,1)$ which have a $k$-quasiconformal extension to the extended complex plane $\hat{\mathbb C},$ where $0\leq k < 1$. We denote…
We establish the Iwasawa main conjecture for semi-stable abelian varieties over a function field of characteristic $p$ under certain restrictive assumptions. Namely we consider $p$-torsion free $p$-adic Lie extensions of the base field…
