Let $K$ be a field of characteristic $0$ and $E/K$ an elliptic curve over $K$. For a finite extension $L/K$ and a prime~$\ell$, we provide Galois-theoretic sufficient conditions on $L/K$ under which…
The minimal ramification problem may be considered as a quantitative version of the inverse Galois problem. For a nontrivial finite group $G$, let $m(G)$ be the minimal integer $m$ for which there exists a Galois extension $N/\mathbb{Q}$…
Let $k$ be a perfect field of characteristic $p > 2$, and let $K$ be a finite totally ramified extension over $W(k)[\frac{1}{p}]$ of ramification degree $e$. Let $R_0$ be a relative base ring over $W(k)\langle t_1^{\pm 1}, \ldots, t_m^{\pm…
We prove several results on backward orbits of rational functions over number fields. First, we show that if $K$ is a number field, $\phi\in K(x)$ and $\alpha\in K$ then the extension of $K$ generated by the abelian points in the backward…
Let $A$ be an abelian variety over a number field $K$. If $P$ and $Q$ are $K$-rational points of $A$ such that the order of the reduction of $Q$ divides that of $P$ for all but finitely many primes of the ring of integers of $K$, then there…
Let K be a local field of characteristic p with perfect residue field k. In this paper we find a set of representatives for the k-isomorphism classes of totally ramified separable extensions L/K of degree p. This extends work of Klopsch,…
We classify all non-degenerate skew-hermitian forms defined over certain local rings, not necessarily commutative, and study some of the fundamental properties of the associated unitary groups, including their orders when the ring in…
Let $K$ be a complete discrete valuation field with residue class field $k$, where both are of positive characteristic $p$. Then the group of wild automorphisms of $K$ can be identified with the group under composition of formal power…
Let $F$ be a field of characteristic $2$ and let $K/F$ be a purely inseparable extension of exponent $1$. We show that the extension is excellent for quadratic forms. Using the excellence we recover and extend results by Aravire and…
Let $p$ be a prime and let $\mathbb{Q}_p$ be the field of $p$-adic numbers. It is known that the finite extensions of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ of a given degree are finite up to isomorphism. Given a cubic field extension $L$ of $\mathbb{Q}_p$…
We construct Belyi maps having specified behavior at finitely many points. Specifically, for any curve C defined over Q-bar, and any disjoint finite subsets S, T in C(Q-bar), we construct a finite morphism f: C -> P^1 such that f ramifies…
Suppose $K$ is a finite field extension of $\mathbb{Q} _p$ containing a primitive $p$-th root of unity. Let $\Gamma _{<p}$ be the Galois group of a maximal $p$-extension of $K$ with the Galois group of period $p$ and nilpotent class $<p$.…
For $X$ a finite category and $F$ a finite field, we study the additive image of the functor $\operatorname{H}_0(-,F) \colon \operatorname{rep}(X, \mathbf{Top}) \to \operatorname{rep}(X, \mathbf{Vect}_F)$, or equivalently, of the free…
We study the ramification groups of finite Galois extensions $L/K$ of a complete discrete valuation field $K$ of equal characteristic $p>0$ with perfect residue field and Galois group isomorphic to the group of unitriangular matrices…
We consider the potential density of rational points on an algebraic variety defined over a number field $K$, i.e., the property that the set of rational points of $X$ becomes Zariski dense after a finite field extension of $K$. For a…
We prove that a valued field of positive characteristic $p$ that has only finitely many distinct Artin-Schreier extensions (which is a property of infinite NTP$_2$ fields) is dense in its perfect hull. As a consequence, it is a deeply…
As an application of P. Delgine's theorem (Esnault and Kerz in Acta Math. Vietnam. 37:531-562, 2012) on a finiteness of $l$-adic sheaves on a variety over a finite field, we show the finiteness of \'etale coverings of such a variety with…
Given a natural number n and a number field K, we show the existence of an integer \ell_0 such that for any prime number \ell\geq \ell_0, there exists a finite extension F/K, unramified in all places above \ell, together with a principally…
Given an abelian algebraic group $A$ over a global field $F$, $\alpha \in A(F)$, and a prime $\ell$, the set of all preimages of $\alpha$ under some iterate of $[\ell]$ generates an extension of $F$ that contains all $\ell$-power torsion…
We study the action of the group of bimeromorphic automorphisms $\mathrm{Bim}(X)$ of a compact complex manifold $X$ on the image of the pluricanonical map, which we call the projective pluricanonical representation of this group. If $X$ is…
