We extend our method to compute division polynomials of Jacobians of curves over Q to curves over Q(t), in view of computing mod ell Galois representations occurring in the \'etale cohomology of surfaces over Q. Although the division…

Let f(x) = x^n + (a[n-1] t + b[n-1]) x^(n-1) + ... + (a[0] t + b[0]) be of constant degree n in x and degree <= 1 in t, where all a[i],b[i] are randomly and uniformly selected from a finite field GF(q) of q elements. Then the probability…

We show that if G is a group and A is a finite subset of G with |A^2| < K|A|, then for all k there is a symmetric neighbourhood of the identity S with S^k a subset of A^2A^{-2} and |S| > exp(-K^{O(k)})|A|.

We study the trace form $q_L$ of $G$-Galois algebras $L/K$ when $G$ is a finite group and $K$ is a field of characteristic different from $2$. We introduce in this paper the category of $2$-reduced groups and, when $G$ is such a group, we…

We discuss rather systematically the principle, implicit in earlier works, that for a "random" element in an arithmetic subgroup of a (split, say) reductive algebraic group over a number field, the splitting field of the characteristic…

For finite Galois extension fields defined by odd degree irreducible polynomials over algebraic integer ring, we observe "Reciprocity Law" through Jacobian Variety by embedding all roots of the polynomials into 2-torsion points of Jacobian…

We calculate the abelianizations of the level $L$ subgroup of the genus $g$ mapping class group and the level $L$ congruence subgroup of the $2g \times 2g$ symplectic group for $L$ odd and $g \geq 3$.

We sketch a method to compute mod $\ell$ Galois representations contained in the H2 \'etale of surfaces. We apply this method to the case of a representation with values in GL(3,9) attached to an eigenform over a congruence subgroup of…

For a prime \(p\ge 2\) and a number field K with p-class group of type (p,p) it is shown that the class, coclass, and further invariants of the metabelian Galois group \(G=Gal(F_p^2(K) | K)\) of the second Hilbert p-class field \(F_p^2(K)\)…

In this paper we improve our previous results on classification of groups of points on abelian varieties over finite fields. The classification is given in terms of the Weil polynomial of abelian varieties in a given $k$-isogeny class.

We study the action of $\operatorname{Gal}(\overline{\mathbb{Q}}/\mathbb{Q})$ on the category of Belyi functions (finite, \'{e}tale covers of $\mathbb{P}^1_{\overline{\mathbb{Q}}}\setminus \{0,1,\infty\}$). We describe a new combinatorial…

We compute a family of coverings with four ramification points, defined over $\mathbb{Q}$, with regular Galois group $PSL_5(2)$. On the one hand, this is (to my knowledge) the first explicit polynomial with group $PSL_5(2)$ over…

Let $X$ be a del Pezzo surface of degree $2$ or greater over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. The image $\Gamma$ of the Galois group $\operatorname{Gal}(\overline{\mathbb{F}}_q / \mathbb{F}_q)$ in the group…

We show that if $K$ is an arbitrary field and $G$ is a finite group then there exists a curve over $K$ with automorphism group $G$. We also give a positive solution to the weak inverse Galois problem for function fields over an arbitrary…

We explore families of pairs of quadratic polynomials $f(x)=x^2+c\in \mathbb{Q}$ and $a\in \mathbb{Q}$ with $a$ being a strictly preperiodic point of $f$ to provide infinitely many new examples for which the associated arboreal Galois…

The main result of this paper is a characterization of the abelian varieties $B/K$ defined over Galois number fields with the property that the zeta function $L(B/K;s)$ is equivalent to the product of zeta functions of non-CM newforms for…

The spectrum of a finite group is the set of its element orders, and two groups are said to be isospectral if they have the same spectra. A finite group $G$ is said to be recognizable by spectrum, if every finite group isospectral with $G$…

A conjecture of Odoni stated over Hilbertian fields $K$ of characteristic zero asserts that for every positive integer $d$, there exists a polynomial $f\in K[x]$ of degree $d$ such that for every positive integer $n$, each iterate $f^{\circ…

In this article we consider outer Galois actions on a free profinite group of rank two, induced by the \'etale fundamental group of a projective line minus three points or of a pointed elliptic curve over a number field. Under mild…

In this paper we describe all group gradings by a finite abelian group $\Gamma$ of a simple Lie algebra of type $G_2$ over an algebraically closed field $F$ of characteristic 0.
