Let $L/K$ be a finite Galois, totally ramified $p$-extension of complete local fields with perfect residue fields of characteristic $p>0$. In this paper, we give conditions, valid for any Galois $p$-group $G={Gal}(L/K)$ (abelian or not) and…
Let r : G_Q -> GL_n Q_l be a motivic l-adic Galois representation. For fixed m > 1 we initiate an investigation of the density of the set of primes p such that the trace of the image of an arithmetic Frobenius at p under r is an m^th power…
Let $K$ be a number field and $f\in K[X]$ an irreducible monic polynomial with coefficients in $O_K$, the ring of integers of $K$. We aim to enounce an effective criterion, in terms of the Galois group of $f$ over $K$ and a linear…
This paper proves that if $E$ is a field, such that the Galois group $\mathcal{G}(E(p)/E)$ of the maximal $p$-extension $E(p)/E$ is a Demushkin group of finite rank $r(p)_{E} \ge 3$, for some prime number $p$, then $\mathcal{G}(E(p)/E)$…
We show that, for any prime $p$ and integer $k \geq 2$, a simple GF($p$)-representable matroid with sufficiently high rank has a rank-$k$ flat which is either independent in $M$, or is a projective or affine geometry. As a corollary we…
Let $p$ be a prime number and $K$ a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$. We state conjectures on the smooth representations of $\mathrm{GL}_n(K)$ that occur in spaces of mod $p$ automorphic forms (for compact unitary groups). In particular,…
For a prime p, we study the Galois groups of maximal pro-$p$ extensions of imaginary quadratic fields unramified outside a finite set $S$, where $S$ consists of one or two finite places not lying above $p$. When $p$ is odd, we give explicit…
We use Galois cohomology methods to produce optimal mod $p^d$ level lowering congruences to a $p$-adic Galois representation that we construct as a well chosen lift of a given residual mod $p$ representation. Using our explicit Galois…
The object of study is the group of units O^\ast(X) in the coordinate ring of a normal affine variety X over an algebraically closed field k. Methods of Galois cohomology are applied to those varieties that can be presented as a finite…
In this paper, we show examples of local cohomology modules over ramified regular local ring, having finite set of associated primes. In doing so we consider our ramified regular local ring as Eisenstein extension of an unramified regular…
For a semisimple real Lie group $G$ with an irreducible representation $\rho$ on a finite-dimensional real vector space $V$, we give a sufficient criterion on $\rho$ for existence of a group of affine transformations of $V$ whose linear…
Let $K$ be a number field with ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_K$ and let $G$ be a finite group. Given a $G$-Galois $K$-algebra $K_h$, let $\mathcal{O}_h$ denote its ring of integers. If $K_h/K$ is tame, then a classical theorem of E. Noether…
For a quasi-projective scheme $X$ admitting a smooth compactification over a local field of residue characteristic $p > 0$, we construct a continuous reciprocity homomorphism from a tame class group to the abelian tame etale fundamental…
Let $A$ be the ring of integers of a number field $K$. Let $G \subseteq GL_3(A)$ be a finite group. Let $G$ act linearly on $R = A[X,Y, Z]$ (fixing $A$) and let $S = R^G$ be the ring of invariants. Assume the Veronese subring $S^{<m>}$ of…
Let $\mathcal K$ be a field of formal Laurent series with coefficients in a finite field of characteristic $p$, $\mathcal G_{<p}$ -- the maximal quotient of $\operatorname{Gal} (\mathcal K_{sep}/\mathcal K)$ of period $p$ and nilpotent…
Let $k$ be a field, $K/k$ finitely generated and $L/K$ a finite, separable extension. We show that the existence of a $k$-valuation on $L$ which ramifies in $L/K$ implies the existence of a normal model $X$ of $K$ and a prime divisor $D$ on…
Let $K$ be a complete discrete valuation field. Let $\mathcal{O}_K$ be its ring of integers. Let $k$ be its residue field which we assume to be algebraically closed of characteristic exponent $p\geq1$. Let $G/K$ be a semi-abelian variety.…
Let $A$ be the product of an abelian variety and a torus over a number field $K$, and let $m$ be a positive integer. If $\alpha \in A(K)$ is a point of infinite order, we consider the set of primes $\mathfrak p$ of $K$ such that the…
Classically the ramification filtration of the Galois group of a complete discrete valuation field is defined in the case where the residue field is perfect. In this paper, we define without any assumption on the residue field, two…
