One of the main themes in this thesis is the description of the signature of both the infinite place and the finite places in cubic function fields of any characteristic and quartic function fields of characteristic at least 5. For these…

We prove an analogue in Arakelov geometry of the Grothendieck-Riemann-Roch theorem.

We prove a Torelli-like theorem for higher-dimensional function fields, from the point of view of "almost-abelian" anabelian geometry.

We compute the Hausdorff dimension of the set of singular vectors in function fields and bound the Hausdorff dimension of the set of $\varepsilon$-Dirichlet improvable vectors in this setting. This is a function field analogue of the…

For $\alpha\geq 2$, we investigate a class of Fourier extension operators on fractional surfaces $(\xi,|\xi|^\alpha)$. For the corresponding $\alpha$-Strichartz inequalities, by applying the missing mass method and bilinear restriction…

The u-invariant of a field is the largest dimension of an anisotropic quadratic torsion form over the field. In this article we obtain a bound on the u-invariant of function fields in one variable over a henselian valued field with…

Under the assumption that orthogonal polynomials of several variables admit an addition formula, we can define a convolution structure and use it to study the Fourier orthogonal expansions on a homogeneous space. We define a maximal…

We give an asymptotic formula for the number of $D_4$ quartic extensions of a function field with discriminant equal to some bound, essentially reproducing the analogous result over number fields due Cohen, Diaz y Diaz, and Olivier, but…

We examine situations, where representations of a finite-dimensional $F$-algebra $A$ defined over a separable extension field $K/F$, have a unique minimal field of definition. Here the base field $F$ is assumed to be a $C_1$-field. In…

We give an elementary construction of an arbitrary differentially closed field and of a universal differential extension of a differential field in terms of Nash function fields. We also give a characterization of any Archimedean ordered…

Let $K$ be a number field and $K_{ur}$ be the maximal extension of $K$ that is unramified at all places. In a previous article, the first author found three real quadratic fields $K$ such that $Gal(K_{ur}/K)$ is finite and nonabelian simple…

Hecke has shown that the different of an extension of number fields is a square in the class group. We prove an analog for branched covers of closed $3$-manifolds saying that the branch divisor is a square in the first homology group.

Given a field F, one may ask which finite groups are Galois groups of field extensions E/F such that E is a maximal subfield of a division algebra with center F. This question was originally posed by Schacher, who gave partial results over…

Let $k$ be a function field of one variable over a finite field with the characteristic not equal to two. In this paper, we consider the prehomogeneous representation of the space of binary quadratic forms over $k$. We have two main…

We study the Vapnik-Chervonenkis (VC) dimension of the set of quadratic residues (i.e. squares) in finite fields, $\mathbb F_q$, when considered as a subset of the additive group. We conjecture that as $q \to \infty$, the squares have the…

In this article, we consider an analogue of Arakelov theory of arithmetic surfaces over a trivially valued field. In particular, we establish an arithmetic Hilbert-Samuel theorem and studies the effectivity up to R-linear equivalence of…

We classify all cubic extensions of any field of arbitrary characteristic, up to isomorphism, via an explicit construction involving three fundamental types of cubic forms. We deduce a classification of any Galois cubic extension of a…

We study arithmetic progressions of squares over quadratic extensions of number fields. Using a method inspired by an approach of Mordell, we characterize such progressions as quadratic points on a genus $5$ curve. Specifically, we…

We develop Kummer theory for algebraic function fields in finitely many transcendental variables. We consider any finitely generated Kummer extension (possibly, over a cyclotomic extension) of an algebraic function field, and describe the…

We prove that two arithmetically significant extensions of a field F coincide if and only if the Witt ring WF is a group ring Z/n[G]. Furthermore, working modulo squares with Galois groups which are 2-groups, we establish a theorem…
