We study the decomposition of a generic element $g \in G$ of a connected reductive complex algebraic group $G$ in the form $g = N(g) B(g) \bar{u} N(g)^{-1}$ where $N: G \dashrightarrow \mathcal{N}_-$ and $B : G \dashrightarrow…
We give formulas for the number of polynomials over a finite field with given root multiplicities, in particular in cases when the formula is surprisingly simple (a power of q). Besides this concrete interpretation, we also prove an…
Let L/K be an extension of number fields where L/\Q is abelian. We define such an extension to be Leopoldt if the ring of integers O_L of L is free over the associated order A_L/K. Furthermore we define an abelian number field K to be…
Let $F$ be any field. We give a short and elementary proof that any finite subgroup $G$ of $PGL(2,F)$ occurs as a Galois group over the function field $F(x)$. We also develop a theory of descent to subfields of $F$. This enables us to…
Let $p$ be a prime number and $F$ a totally real number field unramified at places above $p$. Let $\bar{r}:\operatorname{Gal}(\bar F/F)\rightarrow\operatorname{GL}_2(\bar{\mathbb{F}_p})$ be a modular Galois representation which satisfies…
This is a guide to the construction of nonlinear number fields, which includes new points not found in our earlier article ``Geometric Galois theory, nonlinear number fields and a Galois group interpretation of the idele class group''.
Let $F$ be a finite extension of $Q_p$, $p>2$. We construct admissible unitary completions of certain representations of $GL_2(F)$ on $L$-vector spaces, where $L$ is a finite extension of $F$. When $F=Q_p$ using the results of Berger,…
We calculate the number of the isomorphism class of the finite flat models over the ring of integers of an absolutely ramified $p$-adic field of constant group schemes of rank two over finite fields, by counting the rational points of a…
In this paper, we develop an explicit method to express finite algebraic numbers (in particular, certain idempotents among them) in terms of linear recurrent sequences, and give applications to the characterization of the splitting primes…
We characterise simply-connected biquotients which potentially admit metrics of holonomy G_2. We prove that there are at most three real homotopy types of rationally elliptic such manifolds---all of them being formal. In the course of this…
The main purpose of this paper is to extend results on isomorphism types of the abelianized absolute Galois group $\mathcal G_K^{ab}$, where $K$ denotes imaginary quadratic field. In particular, we will show that if the class number $h_K$…
In recent work, the authors proved a general result on lifting $G$-irreducible odd Galois representations $\mathrm{Gal}(\overline{F}/F) \to G(\overline{\mathbb{F}}_{\ell})$, with $F$ a totally real number field and $G$ a reductive group, to…
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…
For a rational prime $p\neq 2$, we compute the sequence of ramification groups of a Galois, radical and finite extension $L/F$ where $F/\mathbb{Q}_p$ is an unramified finite extension. First, we compute it in the case where the exponent of…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ denote the finite field of odd characteristic $p$ with $q$ elements ($q=p^{n},n\in \mathbb{N} $) and $\mathbb{F}_q^*$ represent the nonzero elements of $\mathbb{F}_{q}$. In this paper, by using the Smith normal form we…
We first study some families of maximal real subfields of cyclotomic fields with even class number, and then explore the implications of large plus class numbers of cyclotomic fields. We also discuss capitulation of the minus part and the…
This is a book about computational aspects of modular forms and the Galois representations attached to them. The main result is the following: Galois representations over finite fields attached to modular forms of level one can, in almost…
Let $F$ be a field with characteristic $\neq 2$. We show that $F$ is a nonrigid field if and only if certain small 2-groups occur as Galois groups over $F$. These results provide new "automatic realizability" results for Galois groups over…
Let phi: P^1 --> P^1 be a rational map defined over a field K. We construct the moduli space M_d(N) parameterizing conjugacy classes of degree-d maps with a point of formal period N and present an algebraic proof that M_2(N) is…
We introduce a new class of generalised quadratic forms over totally real number fields, which is rich enough to capture the arithmetic of arbitrary systems of quadrics over the rational numbers. We explore this connection through a version…
