Given a Galois extension $L/K$ of number fields, we describe fine distribution properties of Frobenius elements via invariants from representations of finite Galois groups and ramification theory. We exhibit explicit families of extensions…
For a given positive integer $n$ and $K/\mathbb{Q}_p$ a finite extension of ramification degree $e$, we determine the number of finite Galois extensions $L/K$ with inertia degree $f$ and a single nonnegative ramification jump at $n$ as long…
Let $K/k$ be a pro-$p$-extension over a number field $k$ whose Galois group is finitely generated and $k_0\subseteq k_1\subseteq\cdots\subseteq k_n\subseteq\cdots$ an ascending sequence of intermediate fields of $K/k$ such that $k_n/k$ is…
Given a field $k$ and a finite group $G$, the Beckmann--Black problem asks whether every Galois field extension $F/k$ with group $G$ is the specialization at some $t_0 \in k$ of some Galois field extension $E/k(T)$ with group $G$ and $E…
Fix a non-negative integer g and a positive integer I dividing 2g-2. For any Henselian, discretely valued field K whose residue field is perfect and admits a degree I cyclic extension, we construct a curve C over K of genus g and index I.…
We count the number of Galois extensions $M/\mathbb{Q}$ with fixed Galois group $\text{Gal}(M/\mathbb{Q})=D_4$ ordered by multi-invariants introduced by Gundlach. We verify the asymptotic behavior predicted by Gundlach's version of Malle's…
Let A be an abelian variety defined over a number field k and F a finite Galois extension of k. Let p be a prime number. Then under certain not-too-stringent conditions on A and F we investigate the explicit Galois structure of the…
For various nonsolvable groups $G$, we prove the existence of extensions of the rationals $\mathbb{Q}$ with Galois group $G$ and inertia groups of order dividing $ge(G)$, where $ge(G)$ is the smallest exponent of a generating set for $G$.…
Let k be a number field, and denote by k^[d] the compositum of all degree d extensions of k in a fixed algebraic closure. We first consider the question of whether all algebraic extensions of k of degree less than d lie in k^[d]. We show…
Motivated by the work of Liu, we study certain canonical quotients of $G_{\emptyset}^T(K)$ -- the Galois group of the maximal unramified extension of a global field $K$ that is split completely at a finite nonempty set of places in $T$ --…
For important cases of algebraic extensions of valued fields, we develop presentations of the associated K\"ahler differentials of the extensions of their valuation rings. We compute their annihilators as well as the associated Dedekind…
We study the growth of the rank of elliptic curves and, more generally, Abelian varieties upon extensions of number fields. First, we show that if $L/K$ is a finite Galois extension of number fields such that $\Gal(L/K)$ does not have an…
Let $V$ be a projective limit, with respect to the renormalized norm mappings, of the groups of principal units corresponding to a strictly increasing sequence of finite separable totally and tamely ramified Galois extensions of a local…
In \cite{GQ2008} R. Gow and R. Quinlan have cast a new look on the endomorphism algebra of a $K$-vector space $V$ of dimension $n$ assuming that $K$ has a Galois extension $L$ of degree $n$. In this approach the $K$-space $L$ may serve as a…
This paper analyzes theorems about algebraic field extensions using the techniques of reverse mathematics. In section 2, we show that $\mathsf{WKL}_0$ is equivalent to the ability to extend $F$-automorphisms of field extensions to…
We describe the relations among the $\ell$-torsion conjecture, a conjecture of Malle giving an upper bound for the number of extensions, and the discriminant multiplicity conjecture. We prove that the latter two conjectures are equivalent…
Let l be an odd prime and K/k a Galois extension of totally real number fields with Galois group G such that K/k_\infty and k/Q are finite. We reduce the conjectured triviality of the reduced Whitehead group SK_1(QG) of the algebra…
There exist numerous results in the literature proving that within certain families of totally real number fields, the minimal rank of a universal quadratic lattice over such a field can be arbitrarily large. Kala introduced a technique of…
Let $K$ be a number field, $A/K$ be an absolutely simple abelian variety of CM type, and $\ell$ be a prime number. We give explicit bounds on the degree over $K$ of the division fields $K(A[\ell^n])$, and when $A$ is an elliptic curve we…
We study the number of degree $n$ number fields with discriminant bounded by $X$. In this article, we improve an upper bound due to Schmidt on the number of such fields that was previously the best known upper bound for $6 \leq n \leq 94$.
