Let $G$ be a finite group acting on the rational function field $\mathbb{C}(x_g : g\in G)$ by $\mathbb{C}$-automorphisms $h(x_g)=x_{hg}$ for any $g,h\in G$. Noether's problem asks whether the invariant field $\mathbb{C}(G)=k(x_g : g\in…

There are several variants of the inverse Galois problem which involve restrictions on ramification. In this paper we give sufficient conditions that a given finite group $G$ occurs infinitely often as a Galois group over the rationals…

We explore global Poisson-Lie (PL) symmetries using a Lagrangian, or "covariant phase space" approach, that manifestly preserves spacetime covariance. PL symmetries are the classical analog of quantum-group symmetries. In the Noetherian…

The rationality problem of two-dimensional purely quasi-monomial actions was solved completely by Hoshi, Kang and Kitayama [HKK]. As a generalization, we solve the rationality problem of two-dimensional quasi-monomial actions under the…

Let $G$ be a finite group. Then there exists a first-order statement $S(G)$ in the language of rings without parameters and depending only on $G$ such that, for any field $K$, we have that $K\models S(G)$ if and only if $K$ has a Galois…

We classify all rational maps $H \in K(x)^n$ for which ${\rm trdeg}_K K(tH_1,tH_2,\ldots,tH_n) \le 2$, where $K$ is any field and $t$ is another indeterminate. Furthermore, we classify all such maps for which additionally $JH \cdot H = {\rm…

Noether's problem asks whether, for a given field K and finite group G, the fixed field L := K(x_h : h \in G)^G is a purely transcendental extension of K, where G acts on the x_h by gx_h = x_gh. The field L is naturally the function field…

We prove that for a system of indeterminates (X_a) indiced by the P^2(2), the projective plane over F_2, there exists a 3-3 correspondance compatible with the incidence structures of P^2(2), such that (X_a) is one of the orbits of it. We…

For the completion B of a local geometric normal domain, V. Srinivas asked which subgroups of Cl B arise as the image of the map from Cl A to Cl B on class groups as A varies among normal geometric domains with B isomorphic to the…

An n-dimensional quantum torus is a twisted group algebra of the group $\Z^n$. It is called rational if all invertible commutators are roots of unity. In the present note we describe a normal form for rational n-dimensional quantum tori…

The projective orthogonal and symplectic groups $PO_n(F)$ and $PSp_n(F)$ have a natural action on the $F$ vector space $V' = M_n(F) \oplus ... \oplus M_n(F)$. Here we assume $F$ is an infinite field of characteristic not 2. If we assume…

We introduce and study a class of field extensions that we call pre-Galois; viz. extensions that become Galois after some linearly disjoint Galois base change. Among them are geometrically Galois extensions of k(T), with k a field:…
