Let $\Gamma_{k}(V)$ be the Grassmann graph formed by $k$-dimensional subspaces of an $n$-dimensional vector space over the finite field ${\mathbb F}_{q}$ consisting of $q$ elements and $1<k<n-1$. Denote by $\Gamma(n,k)_q$ the restriction of…

For a prime power $q$, an integer $m$ and $0\leq e\leq m-1$ we study the $e$-Galois hull dimension of Gabidulin codes $G_k(\boldsymbol{\alpha})$ of length $m$ and dimension $k$ over $\mathbb{F}_{q^m}$. Using a self-dual basis…

In this manuscript, we investigate the automorphism group of a maximal function field with the second largest possible genus over finite field of even characteristic, which is called the Abd\'on--Torres function field. As an application, we…

We study the Galois groups of polynomials arising from a compatible family of representations with big orthogonal monodromy. We show that the Galois groups are usually as large as possible given the constraints imposed on them by a…

We compute explicitly the automorphism and outer automorphism group of all large-type free-of-infinity Artin groups. Our strategy involves reconstructing the associated Deligne complexes in a purely algebraic manner, i.e. in a way that is…

We develop an explicit geometric construction of automorphisms of finite fields arising from isogeny cycles. Let $k$ be a finite field, $E/k$ an elliptic curve, and $\ell$ an integer coprime to $\mathrm{char}(k)$. Let $\mathfrak{h}$ be an…

We look at AG codes associated to the projective line, re-examining the problem of determining their automorphism groups (originally investigated by Duer in 1987 using combinatorial techniques) using recent methods from algebraic geometry.…

We revisit Kolchin's results on definability of differential Galois groups of strongly normal extensions, in the case where the field of constants is not necessarily algebraically closed. In certain classes of differential topological…

Affine Grassmann codes are a variant of generalized Reed-Muller codes and are closely related to Grassmann codes. These codes were introduced in a recent work [2]. Here we consider, more generally, affine Grassmann codes of a given level.…

Graded-division algebras are building blocks in the theory of finite-dimensional associative algebras graded by a group G. If G is abelian, they can be described, using a loop construction, in terms of central simple graded-division…

Let $G\subset\GL(\BC^r)$ be a finite complex reflection group. We show that when $G$ is irreducible, apart from the exception $G=\Sgot_6$, as well as for a large class of non-irreducible groups, any automorphism of $G$ is the product of a…

The group of 2-by-2 matrices with integer entries and determinant $\pm > 1$ can be identified either with the group of outer automorphisms of a rank two free group or with the group of isotopy classes of homeomorphisms of a 2-dimensional…

Let $X=X(n,q)$ be the set of $n\times n$ Hermitian matrices over $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$. It is well known that $X$ gives rise to a metric translation association scheme whose classes are induced by the rank metric. We study $d$-codes in this…

We study the Hermitian hull-variation problem for vector rank-metric codes. Except for one parameter pair, we show that the Hermitian hull dimension of such a code can be reduced to any smaller value within its equivalence class, and in…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic $p>0$ and $C \to {\mathbb P}^1_k$ a $p$-cyclic cover of the projective line ramified in exactly one point. We are interested in the $p$-part of the full automorphism group…

For a polycyclic group $\Lambda$, $\text{rank} (\Lambda )$ is defined as the number of $\mathbb{Z}$ factors in a polycyclic decomposition of $\Lambda$. For a finitely generated group $G$, $\text{rank} (G)$ is defined as the infimum of $…

It is well known that the Tchebotarev density theorem implies that an irreducible $\ell$-adic representation $\rho$ of the absolute Galois group of a number field $K$ is determined (up to isomorphism) by the characteristic polynomials of…

Let $ K$ be a field admitting a Galois extension $L$ of degree $n$, denoting the Galois group as $G = \gal(L/K)$. Our focus lies on the space $\sym_K(L)$ of symmetric $K$-bilinear forms on $L$. We establish a decomposition of $\sym_K(L)$…

We study the outer automorphism group of a right-angled Artin group $A_\Gamma$ with finite defining graph $\Gamma$. We construct a subnormal series for $Out(A_\Gamma)$ such that each consecutive quotient is either finite, free-abelian,…

In the present paper, we shall show that for any prime number p, every finite p-group occurs as the Galois Group of the maximal unramified p-extension over a certain number field of finite degree. We shall also show that for any given…
