For a smooth surface X over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic, we consider the ramification of an Artin-Schreier extension of X. A ramification at a point of codimension 1 of X is understood by the Swan conductor. A…

The goal of this paper is to generalize and refine the classical ramification theory of complete discrete valuation rings to more general valuation rings, in the case of Artin-Schreier extensions. We define refined versions of invariants of…

Given an $F$-finite regular scheme $X$ of positive characteristic and a simple normal crossing divisor $E$ on $X$, we introduce a filtration on the de Rham-Witt complex $W_m\Omega^\bullet_{X\setminus E}$. When $X$ is the spectrum of a…

Let $K/\mathbb{Q}$ be a finitely generated field of characteristic zero and $X/K$ a smooth projective variety. Fix $q\in\mathbb{N}$. For every prime number $\ell$ let $\rho_\ell$ be the representation of $\mathrm{Gal}(K)$ on the \'etale…

For a Henselian discrete valued field $K$ of characteristic $p>0$, Kato defined a ramification filtration $\{{\rm fil}_nH^q(K,\mathbb Q_p/\mathbb Z_p(q-1))\}_{n \ge 0}$ on $H^q(K,\mathbb Q_p/\mathbb Z_p(q-1))$. One can also define a…

We study the relative algebraic closure $K$ of $\bar{\mathbb{F}}_p((t))$ inside $\bar{\mathbb{F}}((t^{\mathbb{Q}}))$. We show that the supports of elements in $K$ have order type strictly less than $\omega^\omega$. We also recover a theorem…

Formal orbifolds are defined in higher dimension. Their \'etale fundamental groups are also defined. It is shown that the fundamental groups of formal orbifolds have certain finiteness property and it is also shown that they can be used to…

This article is the second installment in a series on the Berkovich ramification locus for nonconstant rational functions f: P^1 -> P^1. Here we show the ramification locus of f is contained in a strong tubular neighborhood of finite radius…

Let $K$ be a number field, let $v$ be a finite place of $K$, let $f\in K[z]$ be a degree $d\geqslant2$ polynomial with $v|d$, and let $a\in K$. We show that if $f$ is postcritically bounded and has potential good reduction with respect to…

Given a field K, one may ask which finite groups are Galois groups of field extensions L/K such that L is a maximal subfield of a division algebra with center K. This connection between inverse Galois theory and division algebras was first…

Quaternion extensions are often the smallest extensions to exhibit special properties. In the setting of the Hasse-Arf Theorem, for instance, quaternion extensions are used to illustrate the fact that upper ramification numbers need not be…

We prove a local-global principle for the embedding problems of global fields with restricted ramification. By this local-global principle, for a global field $k$, we use only the local information to give a presentation of the maximal…

Let $L$ and $M$ be finite extensions of $K = \mathbb{C}(t)$. If $L\otimes _K M$ is a field of genus $0$, then at least one of $L$ and $M$ is ramified over at most four valuations of $K$.

Let $G\subset x{\mathbb F}_q[\![x]\!]$ ($q$ is a power of the prime $p$) be a subset of formal power series over a finite field such that it forms a compact abelian $p$-adic Lie group of dimension $d\ge 1$. We establish a necessary and…

For a totally real field $F$, a finite extension $\mathbf{F}$ of $\mathbf{F}_p$ and a Galois character $\chi: G_F \to \mathbf{F}^{\times}$ unramified away from a finite set of places $\Sigma \supset \{\mathfrak{p} \mid p\}$ consider the…

This work contains a list of all known results on the quotient filtration on the Milnor K-groups of a complete discrete valuation field in terms of differential modules over the residue field . Author's recent study of the case of a tamely…

Given a compact Lie group $G$ acting on a space $X$, the classical Atiyah-Segal completion theorem identifies topological $K$-theory of the homotopy quotient $X/G$ with an explicit completion of $G$-equivariant topological $K$-theory of…

Let $q$ be a non-negative integer. We prove that a perfect field $K$ has cohomological dimension at most $q+1$ if, and only if, for any finite extension $L$ of $K$ and for any homogeneous space $Z$ under a smooth linear connected algebraic…

Let $ K $ be a number field and let $ L/K $ be a tamely ramified radical extension of prime degree $ p $. If $ K $ contains a primitive $ p^{th} $ root of unity then $ L/K $ is a cyclic Kummer extension; in this case the group algebra $…

This paper justifies an assertion in (Elder, Proc AMS 137 (2009), no 4, 1193--1203) that Galois scaffolds make the questions of Galois module structure tractable. Let $k$ be a perfect field of characteristic $p$ and let $K=k((T))$. For the…
