We provide a simple method of constructing isogeny classes of abelian varieties over certain fields $k$ such that no variety in the isogeny class has a principal polarization. In particular, given a field $k$, a Galois extension $\ell$ of…
This is an integrated part of our Geo-Arithmetic Program. In this paper we initiate a geometrically oriented construction of non-abelian zeta functions for curves defined over finite fields by a weighted count of semi-stable bundles. Basic…
Let $K/\mathbb{Q}$ be a finitely generated field of characteristic zero and $X/K$ a smooth projective variety. Fix $q\in\mathbb{N}$. For every prime number $\ell$ let $\rho_\ell$ be the representation of $\mathrm{Gal}(K)$ on the \'etale…
The class-invariant homomorphism allows one to measure the Galois module structure of extensions obtained by dividing points on abelian varieties. In this paper, we consider the case when the abelian variety is the Jacobian of a Fermat…
A Galois scaffold, in a Galois extension of local fields with perfect residue fields, is an adaptation of the normal basis to the valuation of the extension field, and thus can be applied to answer questions of Galois module structure. Here…
Let $U/L$ be a finite abelian extension of number fields. We first construct a universal primitive generator of $U$ over $L$ whose relative trace to any intermediate field $F$ becomes a generator of $F$ over $L$, too. We also develop a…
We consider the deconstruction/reconstruction of extensions in varieties of algebras which are modules expanded by multilinear operators. The parametrization of extensions determined by abelian ideals with unary actions agrees with the…
The notion of formal Siegel modular forms for an arithmetic subgroup $\Gamma$ of the symplectic group of genus $n$ is a generalization of symmetric formal Fourier-Jacobi series. Assuming an upper bound on the affine covering number of the…
Given a $p$-adic field $K$ and a prime number $\ell$, we count the total number of the isomorphism classes of $p^\ell$-extensions of $K$ having no intermediate fields. Moreover for each group that can appear as Galois group of the normal…
We give a canonical procedure associating to an algebraic number a first a hyperelliptic curve C_a, and then a triangle curve (D_a, G_a) obtained through the normal closure of an associated Belyi function. In this way we show that the…
We prove that for all non-abelian finite simple groups $S$, there exists a fake mth Galois action on IBr$(X)$ with respect to $X \lhd X \rtimes $ Aut$(X)$, where $X$ is the universal covering group of $S$ and $m$ is any non-negative integer…
This text answers a question raised by Joux and the second author about the computation of discrete logarithms in the multiplicative group of finite fields. Given a finite residue field $\bK$, one looks for a smoothness basis for $\bK^*$…
We determine the Galois module structure of the ring of integers for all cubic fields using roots of the generic cyclic cubic polynomial $f_n(X)=X^3-nX^2-(n+3)X-1$. Let $L_n=\mathbb Q(\rho_n)$ be a cyclic cubic field with Galois group…
We describe the exact G-module F* for any cyclic extension F/K of locals fields of characteristic zero, where G is the Galois group of F/K. We also describe a parametrized space Wa,b,m,n which is most often a direct factor in F*.
Our goal is to give a purely algebraic characterization of finite abelian Galois covers of a complete, irreducible, non-singular curve $X$ over an algebraically closed field $\k$. To achieve this, we make use of the Galois theory of…
We give an example of a regular dessin d'enfant whose field of moduli is not an abelian extension of the rational numbers, namely it is the field generated by a cubic root of 2. This answers a previous question. We also prove that the…
This paper studies the structure of the Mordell--Weil groups of semiabelian varieties over algebraic extensions of number fields whose absolute Galois group is finitely generated, with particular emphasis on that generated by a single…
Let $\mathcal{O}$ be a Dedekind domain whose field of fractions $K$ is a global field. Let $A$ be a finite-dimensional separable $K$-algebra and let $\Lambda$ be an $\mathcal{O}$-order in $A$. Let $n$ be a positive integer and suppose that…
Let $p$ be prime, and $n,m \in \mathbb{N}$. When $K/F$ is a cyclic extension of degree $p^n$, we determine the $\mathbb{Z}/p^m\mathbb{Z}[\text{Gal}(K/F)]$-module structure of $K^\times/K^{\times p^m}$. With at most one exception, each…
In this paper, we study the problem of removing an element from an additive basis in a general abelian group. We introduce analogues of the classical functions $X$, $S$ and $E$ (defined in the case of the integers) and obtain bounds on…
