Let $k$ be a number field, $K/k$ a finite Galois extension with Galois group $G$, $\chi$ a faithful character of $G$. We prove that the Artin L-function $L(s,\chi,K/k)$ determines the Galois closure of $K$ over $\Q$. In the special case…

Let $K/\mathbb Q$ be a finite Galois extension and let $\chi_1,\ldots,\chi_r$ be the irreducible characters of the Galois group $G:=Gal(K/\mathbb Q)$. Let $f_1:=L(s,\chi_1),\ldots,f_r:=L(s,\chi_r)$ be their associated Artin L-functions. For…

If $K/\mathbb Q$ is a finite Galois extension with an almost monomial Galois group and if $s_0\in\mathbb C\setminus\{1\}$ is not a common zero for any two Artin L-functions associated to distinct complex irreducible characters of the Galois…

Let $K/\mathbb Q$ be a finite Galois extension, $s_0\in \mathbb C\setminus \{1\}$, ${\it Hol}(s_0)$ the semigroup of Artin L-functions holomorphic at $s_0$. If the Galois group is almost monomial then Artin's L-functions are holomorphic at…

Let $K/{\mathbb Q}$ be a finite Galois extension, and let $s_0\neq 1$ be a complex number. We present two new criteria for the Artin L-functions to be holomorphic at $s_0$.

The Linear Independence hypothesis (LI), which states roughly that the imaginary parts of the critical zeros of Dirichlet L-functions are linearly independent over the rationals, is known to have interesting consequences in the study of…

The aim of this paper is to provide an analogue of the Ball-Rivoal theorem for $p$-adic $L$-values of Dirichlet characters. More precisely, we prove for a Dirichlet character $\chi$ and a number field $K$ the formula…

We investigate special values of Goss L-functions for Dirichlet characters at s=1 over rings of class number one and prove results on their transcendence and algebraic independence.

In this paper we develop a general method to prove independence of algebraic monodromy groups in compatible systems of representations, and we apply it to deduce independence results for compatible systems both in automorphic and in…

In this paper we obtain new quantitative forms of Hilbert's Irreducibility Theorem. In particular, we show that if $f(X, T_1, \ldots, T_s)$ is an irreducible polynomial with integer coefficients, having Galois group $G$ over the function…

Using tools from the Siegel-Shidlovskii theory of transcendental numbers, we prove that a nontrivial solution of the Airy equation, its derivative, and an antiderivative are algebraically independent over the field of rational functions.…

Let pi be a regular, algebraic, essentially self-dual cuspidal automorphic representation of GL_n(A_F), where F is a totally real field and n is at most 5. We show that for all primes l, the l-adic Galois representations associated to pi…

In the frame of Mahler's method for algebraic independence we show that the algebraic relations over Q linking the values of functions solutions of a system of functional equations come from the algebraic relations between the functions…

Let $K$ be the function field of a curve over a finite field of odd characteristic. We investigate using $L$-functions of Galois extensions of $K$ to effectively recover $K$. When $K$ is the function field of the projective line with four…

Let $F$ be a field of prime characteristic $p$ and let $q$ be a power of $p$. We assume that $F$ contains the finite field of order $q$. A $q$-polynomial $L$ over $F$ is an element of the polynomial ring $F[x]$ with the property that those…

Let G be a finite solvable group and $\chi\in \Irr(G)$ be a faithful character. We show that the derived length of G is bounded by a linear function of the number of distinct irreducible constituents of $\chi\bar{\chi}$. We also discuss…

Let $\chi$ be a real non-principal character modulo a prime $q$ and $L(s,\chi)$ be the corresponding $L$-function. We prove that for any real number $s\geq 1$ there holds $$ -\frac{L'(s,\chi )}{L(s,\chi)}\leq c \log q,$$ where $c$ can be…

Using a generalization of forward elimination, it is proved that functions $f_1,...,f_n:X\to\mathbb{A}$, where $\mathbb{A}$ is a field, are linearly independent if and only if there exists a nonsingular matrix $[f_i(x_j)]$ of size $n$,…
