A univariate polynomial f over a field is decomposable if f = g o h = g(h) for nonlinear polynomials g and h. It is intuitively clear that the decomposable polynomials form a small minority among all polynomials over a finite field. The…

T. Saito established a ramification theory for ring extensions locally of complete intersection. We show that for a Henselian valuation ring $A$ with field of fractions $K$ and for a finite Galois extension $L$ of $K$, the integral closure…

We give a refinement of the local class field theory of Serre and Hazewinkel. This refinement allows the theory to treat extensions that are not necessarily totally ramified. Such a refinement was obtained and used in the authors' paper on…

We prove three theorems concerning the Hopf-Galois module structure of fractional ideals in a finite tamely ramified extension of $ p $-adic fields or number fields which is $ H $-Galois for a commutative Hopf algebra $ H $. Firstly, we…

Let $G$ be a complex reductive group. For a smooth affine spherical $G$-variety $X$, assume that the unramified relative local Langlands conjecture of Ben-Zvi-Sakellaridis-Venkatesh for $X$ holds, the loop space $LX$ is an $L^+G$--placid…

We continue the work of Kaplansky on immediate valued field extensions and determine special properties of elements in such extensions. In particular, we are interested in the question when an immediate valued function field of…

We show that any separated essentially finite-type map $f$ of noetherian schemes globally factors as $f = hi$ where $i$ is an injective localization map and $h$ a separated finite-type map. In particular, via Nagata's compactification…

We explore the situation where all companion $n \times n$ matrices over a field $F$ are weakly periodic of index of nilpotence $2$ and prove that this can be happen uniquely when $F$ is a countable field of positive characteristic, which is…

We derive basic properties of minimal extensions of local rings and their restrictions to subrings. Some applications are included to subrings of truncated polynomial rings.

Let $F$ be an archimedean local field and let $E$ be $F\times F$ (resp. a quadratic extension of $F$). We prove that an irreducible generic (resp. nearly tempered) representation of $\operatorname{GL}_n(E)$ is $\operatorname{GL}_n(F)$…

Let $F$ be a nonarchimedean local field, let $E$ be a Galois quadratic extension of $F$ and let $G$ be a quasisplit group defined over $F$; a conjecture by Dipendra Prasad states that the Steinberg representation of $G(E)$ is then…

An important result for regular foliations is their formal semi-local triviality near simply connected leaves. We extend this result to singular foliations for all 2-connected leaves and a wide class of 1- connected leaves by proving a…

Let $L/K$ be a finite Galois extension of local fields. The Hasse-Arf theorem says that if Gal$(L/K)$ is abelian then the upper ramification breaks of $L/K$ must be integers. We prove the following converse to the Hasse-Arf theorem: Let $G$…

In this self-contained short note, we prove that {\it every arithmetic function} $F$ {\it has infinitely many Ramanujan coefficients} $G$ {\it giving an absolutely convergent Ramanujan expansion for $F$}. This is "coefficients'…

We introduce a notion of equivalence on tilings which is formulated in terms of their local structure. We compare it with the known concept of locally deriving one tiling from another and show that two tilings of finite type are…

Using limit linear series and a result controlling degeneration from separable maps to inseparable maps, we give a formula for the number of self-maps of the projective line with ramification to order e_i at general points P_i, in the case…

Let $F$ be a local field of characteristic $p$ and $G$ be a connected reductive group over $F$. Recall that Shalika's germ expansion of orbital integrals of regular semi-simple elements near the identity, when it exists, is a sum indexed by…

Leivant's ramified recurrence is one of the earliest examples of an implicit characterization of the polytime functions as a subalgebra of the primitive recursive functions. Leivant's result, however, is originally stated and proved only…

In the present work, we determine explicitly the genus of any separable cubic extension of any global function field given the minimal polynomial of the extension. We give algorithms computing the ramification data and the genus of any…

In this paper we obtain the genus field of a general Kummer extension of a global rational function field. We study first the case of a general Kummer extension of degree a power of a prime. Then we prove that the genus field of a composite…
