We attempt to generalize the $p$-modular representation theory of finite groups to finite transporter categories, which are regarded as generalized groups. We shall carry on our tasks through modules of transporter category algebras, a type…

Fractional calculus is the calculus of differentiation and integration of non-integer orders. In a recently paper (Annals of Physics 323 (2008) 2756-2778), the Fundamental Theorem of Fractional Calculus is highlighted. Based on this…

We propose the notion of the {\em crystalline sub-representation functor} defined on $p$-adic representations of the Galois groups of finite extensions of $\Qp$, with certain restrictions in the case of integral representations. By studying…

A categorical theory for the discretization of a large class of dynamical systems with variable coefficients is proposed. It is based on the existence of covariant functors between the Rota category of Galois differential algebras and…

By Langlands and Deligne we know that the local constants are extendible functions. Therefore, to give an explicit formula of the local constant of an induced representation of a local Galois group of a non-Archimedean local field $F$ of…

In this note we generalize Nori's definition of the fundamental group scheme from a rational point to an arbitrary base point so that when we take $X$ to be a field $k$ and the point to be $k\subseteq \bar{k}$ we still get a non trivial…

We consider the distribution of the Galois groups $\operatorname{Gal}(K^{\operatorname{un}}/K)$ of maximal unramified extensions as $K$ ranges over $\Gamma$-extensions of $\mathbb{Q}$ or $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$. We prove two properties of…

We classify the finite groups whose non-linear irreducible characters that are not conjugate under the natural Galois action have distinct degrees, therefore extending the results in Berkovich et al. [Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. {\bf 115}…

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…

Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field different from $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-1})$ and $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-3})$. For a positive integer $N$, let $K_\mathfrak{n}$ be the ray class field of $K$ modulo $\mathfrak{n}=N\mathcal{O}_K$. By using the…

A major open problem in current Galois theory is to characterize those profinite groups which appear as absolute Galois groups of various fields. Obtaining detailed knowledge of the structure of quotients and subgroup filtrations of Galois…

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 generalize Wagoner's representation of the automorphism group of a two-sided subshifts of finite type as the fundamental group of a certain CW-complex to groupoids having a certain refinement structure. This significantly streamlines the…

This work results from a study of Nicholas Kuhn's paper entitled "Generic representation theory of finite fields in nondescribing characteristic". Our goal is to abstract the categorical structure required to obtain an equivalence between…

We generalize toposic Galois theory to higher topoi. We show that locally constant sheaves in a locally (n-1)-connected n-topos are equivalent to representations of its fundamental pro-n-groupoid, and that the latter can be described in…

To a "stable homotopy theory" (a presentable, symmetric monoidal stable $\infty$-category), we naturally associate a category of finite \'etale algebra objects and, using Grothendieck's categorical machine, a profinite group that we call…

In this paper, we will calculate the number of Galois extensions of local fields with Galois group A_n and S_n.

We classify all cubic function fields over any finite field, particularly developing a complete Galois theory which includes those cases when the constant field is missing certain roots of unity. In doing so, we find criteria which allow…

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 we introduce the notion of a categorical Mackey functor. This categorical notion allows us to obtain new Mackey functors by passing to Quillen's $K$-theory of the corresponding abelian categories. In the case of an action by…
