The aim of this paper is to prove a theorem of Ax-Lindemann type for complex semi-abelian varieties as an application of a big Picard theorem proved by the author in 1981, and then apply it to prove a theorem of classical Manin-Mumford…
Given a Hilbertian field $k$ and a finite set $\mathcal{S}$ of Krull valuations of $k$, we show that every finite split embedding problem $G \rightarrow {\rm{Gal}}(L/k)$ over $k$ with abelian kernel has a solu\-tion ${\rm{Gal}}(F/k)…
In this short note we present an elementary proof of the Ax-Lindemann-Weierstrass theorem for abelian and semi-abelian varieties. The proof uses ideas of Pila, Ullmo, Yafaev, Zannier and is based on basic properties of sets definable in…
We prove an analogue of the Lindemann-Weierstrass theorem (that the exponentials of Q-linearly independent algebraic numbers are algebraically independent) for commutative algebraic groups G without unipotent quotients, over function…
We develop a Galois theory for systems of linear difference equations with an action of an endomorphism {\sigma}. This provides a technique to test whether solutions of such systems satisfy {\sigma}-polynomial equations and, if yes, then…
We use Galois closures of finite rational maps between complex projective varieties to introduce a new method for producing varieties such that the holomorphic part of the cup product map has non-trivial kernel. We then apply our result to…
Let $K$ be a number field, $A/K$ be an absolutely simple abelian variety of CM type, and $\ell$ be a prime number. We give explicit bounds on the degree over $K$ of the division fields $K(A[\ell^n])$, and when $A$ is an elliptic curve we…
Let $G$ be a split semisimple linear algebraic group over a field and let $X$ be a generic twisted flag variety of $G$. Extending the Hilbert basis techniques to Laurent polynomials over integers we give an explicit presentation of the…
This is (mostly) a survey article. We use an information about Galois properties of points of small order on an abelian variety in order to describe its endomorphism algebra over an algebraic closure of the ground field. We discuss in…
We present a new method for determining the Galois module structure of the cohomology of coherent sheaves on varieties over the integers with a tame action of a finite group. This uses a novel Adams-Riemann-Roch type theorem obtained by…
Let $K$ be a field finitely generated over the field of rational numbers, $K(c)$ the extension of $K$ obtained by adjoining all roots of unity, $L$ an infinite Galois extension of $K$, $X$ an abelian variety defined over $K$. We prove that…
Let ${\mathcal L}/{\mathcal K}$ be a finite Galois extension and let $X$ be an affine algebraic variety defined over ${\mathcal L}$. Weil's Galois descent theorem provides necessary and sufficient conditions for $X$ to be definable over…
We study a symplectic variant of algebraic $K$-theory of the integers, which comes equipped with a canonical action of the absolute Galois group of $\mathbf{Q}$. We compute this action explicitly. The representations we see are extensions…
We present a Galois theory of difference equations designed to measure the differential dependencies among solutions of linear difference equations. With this we are able to reprove Hoelder's Theorem that the Gamma function satisfies no…
We describe a generalization of the large sieve to situations where the underlying groups are nonabelian, and give several applications to the arithmetic of abelian varieties. In our applications, we sieve the set of primes via the system…
We develop a Galois (descent) theory for comonads within the framework of bicategories. We give generalizations of Beck's theorem and the Joyal-Tierney theorem. Many examples are provided, including classical descent theory, Hopf-Galois…
In this paper the new techniques and results concerning the structure theory of modules over non-commutative Iwasawa algebras are applied to arithmetic: we study Iwasawa modules over p-adic Lie extensions K of number fields k "up to…
We give model theoretic accounts and proofs of the existence and uniqueness of differential Galois extensions with no new constants, for logarithmic differential equations over a differential field K, when the field C of constants of K is…
