Let G be a semisimple complex Lie group. In this article, we study Geometric Invariant Theory on a flag variety G/B with respect to the action of a principal 3-dimensional simple subgroup S of G. We determine explicitly the GIT-equivalence…

A Hopf Galois structure on a finite field extension L/K is given by a finite cocommutative K-Hopf algebra and a Hopf action. In this paper we present an algorithm written in the computational algebra system Magma which gives all Hopf Galois…

We discuss the construction of finite noncommutative geometries on Hopf algebras and finite groups in the `quantum groups approach'. We apply the author's previous classification theorem, implying that calculi in the factorisable case…

For odd primes we prove some structure theorems for finite $p$-groups $G$, such that $G''\neq 1$ and $|G'/G''|=p^3$. Building on results of Blackburn and Hall, it is shown that $\lcs G3$ is a maximal subgroup of $G'$, the group $G$ has a…

A Hopf Galois structure on a finite field extension $L/K$ is a pair $(H,\mu)$, where $H$ is a finite cocommutative $K$-Hopf algebra and $\mu$ a Hopf action. In this paper we present a program written in the computational algebra system…

Let p be an odd prime. The lattice of all normal subgroups and the terms of the lower and upper central series are determined for all metabelian p-groups with generator rank d=2 having abelianization of type (p,p) and minimal defect of…

The $\hat\kappa$-deformed extended Galilei Hopf group algebra, ${\rm Fun}_{\hat\kappa}(\tilde G_{(m)})$, is introduced. It provides an example of a cocycle bicrossproduct structure, and is shown to be the contraction limit of a…

All current techniques for showing that a number field has an infinite p-class field tower depend on one of various forms of the Golod-Shafarevich inequality. Such techniques can also be used to restrict the types of p-groups which can…

Let $K$ be a function field over a finite field $k$ of characteristic $p$ and let $K_{\infty}/K$ be a geometric extension with Galois group $\mathbb{Z}_p$. Let $K_n$ be the corresponding subextension with Galois group…

Complex reflection groups comprise a generalization of Weyl groups of semisimple Lie algebras, and even more generally of finite Coxeter groups. They have been heavily studied since their introduction and complete classification in the…

Let G denote a connected, quasi-split reductive group over a field F that is complete with respect to a discrete valuation and that has a perfect residue field. Under mild hypotheses, we produce a subset of the Lie algebra g(F) that picks…

In this paper we explore the possibility of defining p-local finite groups in terms of transfer properties of their classifying spaces. More precisely, we consider the question posed by Haynes Miller, whether an equivalent theory can be…

In this paper, we prove, under a technical assumption, that any semi-direct product of a $p$-group $G$ with a group $\Phi$ of order prime to $p$ can appear as the Galois group of a tower of extensions $H/K/F$ with the property that $H$ is…

A major open problem in current Galois theory is to characterize those profinite groups which appear as absolute Galois groups of various fields. Obtaining detailed knowledge of the structure of quotients and subgroup filtrations of Galois…

The topological classification of gerbes, as principal bundles with the structure group the projective unitary group of a complex Hilbert space, over a topological space $H$ is given by the third cohomology $\text{H}^3(H, \Bbb Z)$. When $H$…

In this article, we will prove a full topological version of Popa's measurable cocycle superrigidity theorem for full shifts. More precisely, we prove that every H\"older continuous cocycle for the full shifts of every finitely generated…

In this short mostly expository note, we sketch a program for gauging fully extended topological field theories in 3 dimensions. One begins with the spherical fusion category with which one wants to do Levin-Wen or Turaev-Viro. One then…

Let $f$ be an irreducible polynomial of prime degree $p\geq 5$ over $\QQ$, with precisely $k$ pairs of complex roots. Using a result of Jens H\"{o}chsmann (1999), we show that if $p\geq 4k+1$ then $\Gal(f/\QQ)$ is isomorphic to $A_{p}$ or…

We determine the Galois group of the 2-class field tower for two particular families of imaginary quadratic number fields $k$ with $2$-class field tower of length $2$.

Let $p$ be an odd prime number and $F$ a field containing a primitive $p$th root of unity. We prove a new restriction on the group-theoretic structure of the absolute Galois group $G_F$ of $F$. Namely, the third subgroup $G_F^{(3)}$ in the…
