We realize the Pauli group $P$ as Galois group of polynomials over the rational numbers. It is shown by construction that each pure polynomial in the infinite family of the form $X^8+k^2$ for $k\neq \lambda^2, 2\lambda^2; k,\lambda \in…
Given a $2$-adic field $K$, we give formulae for the number of totally ramified quartic field extensions $L/K$ with a given discriminant valuation and Galois closure group. We use these formulae to prove a refinement of Serre's mass…
In this paper we present an infinite family of (h-)separable cowreaths with increasing dimension. Menini and Torrecillas proved in [20] that for $A=Cl(\alpha,\beta, \gamma)$, a four-dimensional Clifford algebra, and $H=H_4$, Sweedler's Hopf…
The Galois group of a family of cubic surfaces is the monodromy group of the 27 lines of its generic fibre. We describe a method to compute this group for linear systems of cubic surfaces using certified numerical computations. Applying…
We prove the existence of certain rationally rigid triples in F_4(p) for good primes p (i.e., p>3), thereby showing that these groups occur as regular Galois groups over Q(t) and so also over Q. We show that these triples give rise to rigid…
Let $p$ be a prime number and $c, d$ natural numbers. Up to isomorphism, there is a unique $p$-group $G^c_d$ of least order with rank $d$ and nilpotency class $c$ named disposition group. This group plays an important role in the…
Let $k$ be a number field. We provide an asymptotic formula for the number of Galois extensions of $k$ with absolute discriminant bounded by some $X \geq 1$, as $X\to\infty$. We also provide an asymptotic formula for the closely related…
We prove modularity of certain residually reducible ordinary 2-dimensional $p$-adic Galois representations with determinant a finite order odd character $\chi$. For certain non-quadratic $\chi$ we prove an $R=T$ result for $T$ the weight 1…
For real and complex homogeneous cubic polyomials in $n+1$ variables, we prove that the Chow variety of products of linear forms is generically complex identifiable for all ranks up to the generic rank minus two. By integrating fundamental…
Making use of the recent theory of noncommutative motives, we prove that every additive invariant satisfies Galois descent. Examples include mixed complexes, Hochschild homology, cyclic homology, periodic cyclic homology, negative cyclic…
In this paper we study the structure of polynomials of degree three and four that have high bias or high Gowers norm, over arbitrary prime fields. In particular we obtain the following results. 1. We give a canonical representation for…
We present a theory for splitting algebras of monic polynomials over rings, and apply the results to symmetric functions, and Galois theory. Our main result is that the ring of invariants of a splitting algebra under the symmetric group…
We show that the degree of the Alexander polynomial of an irreducible plane algebraic curve with nodes and cusps as the only singularities does not exceed ${5 \over 3}d-2$ where $d$ is the degree of the curve. We also show that the…
For an infinite family of monogenic trinomials $P(X) = X^3\pm 3rbX-b$ in $\mathbb{Z}\lbrack X\rbrack$, arithmetical invariants of the cubic number field $L = \mathbb{Q}(\theta)$, generated by a zero $\theta$ of $P(X)$, and of its Galois…
Let ${\mathcal {B}}$ be a reducible reduced plane curve. We introduce a new point of view to study the topology of $(\PP^2, {\mathcal {B}})$ via Galois covers and Alexander polynomials. We show its effectiveness through examples of Zariski…
The paper studies the probability for a Galois group of a random polynomial to be $A_n$. We focus on the so-called large box model, where we choose the coefficients of the polynomial independently and uniformly from $\{-L,\ldots, L\}$. The…
Define $r_4(N)$ to be the largest cardinality of a set $A \subset \{1,\dots,N\}$ which does not contain four elements in arithmetic progression. In 1998 Gowers proved that \[ r_4(N) \ll N(\log \log N)^{-c}\] for some absolute constant…
We present a computational method for detecting highly singular members in families of algebraic varieties. Applying this approach to a family of numerical Godeaux surfaces, we obtain explicit examples with many singularities. In…
A Hilbert cube of dimension $d$ is the set of integers \[ H(a_{0}; a_{1}, \ldots, a_{d})=a_{0}+\{0, a_{1}\}+\cdots+\{0, a_{d}\}=\left\{a_{0}+\sum_{i=1}^{d}\varepsilon_{i}a_{i}:\;\varepsilon_{i}\in\{0,1\}\right\}. \] Brown, Erd\H{o}s and…
In this paper we count the number $N_3^{\text{tor}}(X)$ of $3$-dimensional algebraic tori over $\mathbb{Q}$ whose Artin conductor is bounded by $X$. We prove that $N_3^{\text{tor}}(X) \ll_{\varepsilon} X^{1 + \frac{\log 2 +…
