The aim of this paper is to investigate the algebraicity behavior of reductions of $D$-finite power series modulo prime numbers. For many classes of D-finite functions, such as diagonals of multivariate algebraic series or hypergeometric…

Starting from certain rational varieties blown-up from (P^1)^N, we construct a tropical, i.e., subtraction-free birational, representation of Weyl groups as a group of pseudo isomorphisms of the varieties. Furthermore, we develop an…

We show how the size of the Galois groups of iterates of a quadratic polynomial $f(x)$ can be parametrized by certain rational points on the curves $C_n:y^2=f^n(x)$ and their quadratic twists. To that end, we study the arithmetic of such…

Let $X$ be a complete smooth variety defined over number field $K$ and $i$ an integer. The absolute Galois group of $K$ acts on the $i$th $l$-adic etale cohomology of $X$ for all $l$, producing a system of $l$-adic representations…

Galois categories can be viewed as the combinatorial analog of Tannakian categories. We introduce the notion of pre-Galois category, which can be viewed as the combinatorial analog of pre-Tannakian categories. Given an oligomorphic group…

We prove that there are infinitely many finite simple groups of symplectic Lie type, of any specified characteristic and rank, which appear as Galois groups over the field of rational numbers. This generalizes a result of Wiese, which…

We examine which representations of the absolute Galois group of a field of finite characteristic with image over a finite field of the same characteristic may be constructed by the Galois group's action on the division points of an…

This paper establishes restrictions on the possible Galois actions on the pro-l-unipotent fundamental group of a smooth variety X of good reduction over a local field K. In particular, if X is proper and l is not equal to the residue…

We show that the presentation of affine $\mathbb{T}$-varieties of complexity one in terms of polyhedral divisors holds over an arbitrary field. We also describe a class of multigraded algebras over Dedekind domains. We study how the algebra…

The study of arboreal Galois representations (that is, Galois groups arising from iteration of polynomial and rational functions) originated with work of Odoni in the 1980s. Beginning in the early 2000s it underwent a period of renewed…

For positive integers $n$, the truncated binomial expansions of $(1+x)^n$ which consist of all the terms of degree $\le r$ where $1 \le r \le n-2$ appear always to be irreducible. For fixed $r$ and $n$ sufficiently large, this is known to…

The representation zeta function of a profinite group $G$ encodes the distribution of continuous irreducible complex representations of $G$ as a function of the dimension. Its abscissa of convergence $\alpha(G)$ describes the polynomial…

The aim of the inverse Galois problem is to find extensions of a given field whose Galois group is isomorphic to a given group. In this article, we are interested in subgroups of GL(2,Z/nZ) where n is an integer. We know that, in general,…

A cubic Galois polynomial is a cubic polynomial with rational coefficients that defines a cubic Galois field. Its discriminant is a full square and its roots $x_1,x_2,x_3$ (enumerated in some order) are real. There exists (and only one)…
