We give a complete characterization of all Galois subfields of the generalized Giulietti--Korchm\'aros function fields $\mathcal C_n / \fqn$ for $n\ge 5$. Calculating the genera of the corresponding fixed fields, we find new additions to…

The functional equation f(p(z))=g(q(z)) is studied, where p,q are polynomials and f,g are trancendental meromorphic functions in C. We find all the pairs p,q for which there exist nonconstant f,g satisfying our equation and there exist no…

We survey recent work on normal functions, including limits and singularities of admissible normal functions, the Griffiths-Green approach to the Hodge conjecture, algebraicity of the zero-locus of a normal function, Neron models, and…

Let G be a connected linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field k, and let H be a connected closed subgroup of G. We prove that the homogeneous variety G/H is a rational variety over k whenever H is solvable, or when dim(G/H)…

We prove that every place of an algebraic function field F|K of arbitrary characteristic admits local uniformization in a finite extension F' of F. We show that F'|F can be chosen to be normal. If K is perfect and P is of rank 1, then…

We find the radius of starlikeness of order $\alpha$, $0\leq \alpha<1$, of normalized analytic functions $f$ on the unit disk satisfying either $\operatorname{Re}(f(z)/g(z))>0$ or $\left| (f(z)/g(z))-1\right|<1$ for some close-to-star…

In this paper we study the generating function f(t) for the sequence of the moments \int_{\gamma}P^i(z)q(z)d z, i\geq 0, where P(z),q(z) are rational functions of one complex variable and \gamma is a curve in C. We calculate an analytical…

Let $A$ be a rational function. For any decomposition of $A$ into a composition of rational functions $A=U\circ V$ the rational function $\widetilde A=V\circ U$ is called an elementary transformation of $A$, and rational functions $A$ and…

Let $\overline{\rho}: G_{\mathbf{Q}} \rightarrow {\rm GSp}_4(\mathbf{F}_3)$ be a continuous Galois representation with cyclotomic similitude character -- or, what turns out to be equivalent, the Galois representation associated to the…

In this technical report we describe a general class of monoids for which (sub)sequential rational can be characterised in terms of a congruence relation in the flavour of Myhill-Nerode relation. The class of monoids that we consider can be…

We provide a concrete example of a normal basis for a finite Galois extension which is not abelian. More precisely, let $\mathbb{C}(X(N))$ be the field of meromorphic functions on the modular curve $X(N)$ of level $N$. We construct a…

Let $f$ and $g$ be analytic functions on the open unit disk of the complex plane with $f/g$ belonging to the class $\mathcal{P} $ of functions with positive real part consisting of functions $p$ with $p(0)=1$ and $\operatorname{Re} p(z)>0$…

We study the ring of rational functions admitting a continuous extension to the real affine space. We establish several properties of this ring. In particular, we prove a strong Nullstelensatz. We study the scheme theoretic properties and…

We make explicit certain results around the Galois correspondence in the context of definable automorphism groups, and point out the relation to some recent papers dealing with the Galois theory of algebraic differential equations when the…

Under suitable hypotheses, we prove that a form of a projective homogeneous variety $G/P$ defined over the function field of a surface over an algebraically closed field has a rational point. The method uses an algebro-geometric analogue of…

We present a Galois theory connecting finitary operations with pairs of finitary relations one of which is contained in the other. The Galois closed sets on both sides are characterised as locally closed subuniverses of the full iterative…

The aim of this paper is to give an algebraic characterization of the rings $C(X,\mathbb{Q}_p)$ of all continuous $\mathbb{Q}_p$-valued functions on a compact space $X$. The characterization is similar to that of M. Stone from 1940 for the…

Over a global field (number field or function field of a curve over a finite field), theorems for the Galois cohomology of algebraic groups have long been known. For $F$ the function field of a curve over the formal series field…

If $K/\mathbb Q$ is a finite Galois extension with an almost monomial Galois group and if $s_0\in\mathbb C\setminus\{1\}$ is not a common zero for any two Artin L-functions associated to distinct complex irreducible characters of the Galois…

We study whether the norm one torus associated with a finite separable non-Galois field extension $K/k$ is $p$-retract rational over $k$ for a prime $p$, focusing on the case where the Galois group of the Galois closure of $K/k$ is either…
