This is a survey of our results on the relation between perturbative renormalization and motivic Galois theory. The main result is that all quantum field theories share a common universal symmetry realized as a motivic Galois group, whose…
In this paper, we examine the non-relativistic stationary Schr\"odinger equation from a differential Galois-theoretic perspective. The main algorithmic tools are pullbacks of second order ordinary linear differential operators, so as to…
Choose a polynomial $f$ uniformly at random from the set of all monic polynomials of degree $n$ with integer coefficients in the box $[-L,L]^n$. The main result of the paper asserts that if $L=L(n)$ grows to infinity, then the Galois group…
In this paper we revisit the following inverse problem: given a curve invariant under an irreducible finite linear algebraic group, can we construct an ordinary linear differential equation whose Schwarz map parametrizes it? We present an…
The classical Noether Normalization Lemma states that if $S$ is a finitely generated algebra over a field $k$, then there exist elements $x_1,\dots,x_n$ which are algebraically independent over $k$ such that $S$ is a finite module over…
We provide an algebraic characterization of transitive, finite-dimensional algebraic Lie pseudogroups (or $\mathcal{D}$-groupoids) that are algebraic integrable, that is, isogenous to the action groupoid of an algebraic group action. Our…
Symmetric $k$-varieties are a natural generalization of symmetric spaces to general fields $k$. We study the action of minimal parabolic $k$-subgroups on symmetric $k$-varieties and define a map that embeds these orbits within the orbits…
We solve the Kato square root problem for bounded measurable perturbations of subelliptic operators on connected Lie groups. The subelliptic operators are divergence form operators with complex bounded coefficients, which may have lower…
Consider the action of an algebraic group $G$ on an irreducible algebraic variety $X$ all defined over a field $k$. M. Rosenlicht showed that orbits in general position in $X$ can be separated by rational invariants. We prove a dynamical…
Let G be a finite group and V a finite-dimensional rational G-representation. We ask whether there exists a finite Galois extension L/K of number fields with Galois group G, an elliptic curve E/K, and a G-submodule of E(L) tensor Q…
We extend L\"uck's determinant conjecture from groups to invariant random subgroups (IRS) of free groups, a framework generalizing groups where a non-sofic object is known to exist. For every free group, we prove the existence of an IRS…
The question of existence of outer automorphisms of a simple algebraic group $G$ arises naturally both when working with the Galois cohomology of $G$ and as an example of the algebro-geometric problem of determining which connected…
This paper focuses on a refinement of the inverse Galois problem. We explore what finite groups appear as the Galois group of an extension of the rational numbers in which only a predetermined set of primes may ramify. After presenting new…
We construct a birational equivalence between certain quotients of s-tuples of equidimensional linear subspaces of $C^n$ and some quotients of products of square matrices modulo diagonal conjugations. In particular, we prove the rationality…
We develop practical techniques to compute with arithmetic groups $H\leq \mathrm{SL}(n,\mathbb{Q})$ for $n>2$. Our approach relies on constructing a principal congruence subgroup in $H$. Problems solved include testing membership in $H$,…
A Galois correspondence theorem is proved for the case of inverse semigroups acting orthogonally on commutative rings as a consequence of the Galois correspondence theorem for groupoid actions. To this end, we use a classic result of…
This paper deals with the Weak Inverse Galois Problem which, for a given field $k$, states that, for every finite group $G$, there exists a finite separable extension $L/k$ such that ${\rm{Aut}}(L/k)=G$. One of its goals is to explain how…
This is an announcement of certain rationality results for the critical values of the degree-2n L-functions attached to GL(1) $\times$ SO(n, n) over $\mathbb Q$ for an even positive integer n. The proof follows from studying the rank-one…
We consider the Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov system of linear differential equations. The coefficients of this system are generated by elements of the symmetric group $S_n$. We separately investigate the case $S_4$. In this case we solve the…
Let $G$ be a connected semisimple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $k$. In 1965 Steinberg proved that if $G$ is simply connected, then in $G$ there exists a closed irreducible cross-section of the set of closures of…
