We investigate the asymptotic behaviour of large eigenvalues for a class of finite difference self-adjoint operators with compact resolvent in $l^2$.

An important piece of information in the theory of the arithmetic Galois action on the geometric fundamental groups of schemes is that divisorial inertia is acted on cyclotomically. We detail in this note the content of this fact in the…

We recall that diagonals of rational functions naturally occur in lattice statistical mechanics and enumerative combinatorics. In all the examples emerging from physics, the minimal linear differential operators annihilating these diagonals…

A group $\Gamma$ is said to be finitely non-co-Hopfian, or renormalizable, if there exists a self-embedding $\varphi \colon \Gamma \to \Gamma$ whose image is a proper subgroup of finite index. Such a proper self-embedding is called a…

We construct and study the moduli of continuous representations of a profinite group with integral $p$-adic coefficients. We present this moduli space over the moduli space of continuous pseudorepresentations and show that this morphism is…

Let $K$ be the function field of a smooth, irreducible curve defined over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$. Let $f\in K[x]$ be of the form $f(x)=x^q+c$ where $q = p^{r}, r \ge 1,$ is a power of the prime number $p$, and let $\beta\in \overline{K}$.…

We study the distribution of the Galois group of a random $q$-additive polynomial over a rational function field: For $q$ a power of a prime $p$, let $f=X^{q^n}+a_{n-1}X^{q^{n-1}}+\ldots+a_1X^q+a_0X$ be a random polynomial chosen uniformly…

In this paper we study an action of the absolute Galois group $\Gamma$ on bicolored plane trees induced by the action of $\Gamma$ on equivalence classes of conservative polynomials which are the simplest example of postcritically finite…

For a hyperbolic toral automorphism, we construct a profinite completion of an isomorphic copy of the homoclinic group of its right action using isomorphic copies of the periodic data of its left action. The resulting profinite group has a…

This paper presents a connection between Galois points and rational functions over a finite field with small value sets. This paper proves that the defining polynomial of any plane curve admitting two Galois points is an irreducible…

A polynomial with integer coefficients yields a family of dynamical systems indexed by primes as follows: for any prime $p$, reduce its coefficients mod $p$ and consider its action on the field $\mathbb{F}_p$. We say a subset of…

We study the \'{e}tale fundamental groups of singular reduced connected curves defined over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary prime characteristic. It is shown that when the curve is projective, the \'{e}tale fundamental group is a…

Given a set $S=\{x^2+c_1,\dots,x^2+c_s\}$ defined over a field and an infinite sequence $\gamma$ of elements of $S$, one can associate an arboreal representation to $\gamma$, generalizing the case of iterating a single polynomial. We study…

This paper formulates a group condition which is enjoyed by absolute Galois groups, and which guarantees that profinite groups satisfying the condition can be approximated as an inverse limit of groups which are profinite analogues of…

Given a polynomial f of degree d defined over a complete local field, we construct a biholomorphic change of variables defined in a neighbourhood of infinity which transforms the action z->f(z) to the multiplicative action z->z^d. The…

We construct Grothendieck pairs witnessing that the following are not profinite invariants: stable commutator length, quasimorphisms (answering a question of Echtler and Kammeyer), property NL (which obstructs actions on hyperbolic spaces),…

Using the action of the Galois group of a normal extension of number fields, we generalize and symmetrize various fundamental statements in algebra and algebraic number theory concerning splitting types of prime ideals, factorization types…

We consider three isogeny invariants of abelian varieties over finite fields: the Galois group, Newton polygon, and the angle rank. Motivated by work of Dupuy, Kedlaya, and Zureick-Brown, we define a new invariant called the weighted…

A self-contained exposition is given of the topological and Galois-theoretic properties of the category of combinatorial 1-complexes, or graphs, very much in the spirit of Stallings. A number of classical, as well as some new results about…

We compute explicit polynomials having the sporadic Higman-Sims group HS and its automorphism group Aut(HS) as Galois groups over the rational function field Q(t).
