Let $f$ be an irreducible polynomial of prime degree $p\geq 5$ over $\QQ$, with precisely $k$ pairs of complex roots. Using a result of Jens H\"{o}chsmann (1999), we show that if $p\geq 4k+1$ then $\Gal(f/\QQ)$ is isomorphic to $A_{p}$ or…
Let $L/K$ be a Galois extension of number fields and let $G=\mathrm{Gal}(L/K)$. We show that under certain hypotheses on $G$, for a fixed prime number $p$, Leopoldt's conjecture at $p$ for certain proper intermediate fields of $L/K$ implies…
Let $H$ be a skew field of finite dimension over its center $k$. We solve the Inverse Galois Problem over the field of fractions $H(X)$ of the ring of polynomial functions over $H$ in the variable $X$, if $k$ contains an ample field.
Let $G$ be a finite classical group of Lie type of rank $\ell$, defined over a field of characteristic $p>2$. In this work, we classify the irreducible representations of $G$ whose dimensions are bounded by a constant proportional to…
We produce infinitely many finite 2-groups that do not embed with index 2 in any group generated by involutions. This disproves a conjecture of Lemmermeyer and restricts the possible Galois groups of unramified 2-extensions, Galois over the…
In this paper we interpret the solutions to a particular Galois embedding problem over an extension K/F whose Galois group is a finite, cyclic p group in terms of certain Galois submodules within the parameterizing space of elementary…
For each finite group G, we define the Grothendieck-Teichm\"uller group of G, denoted GT(G), and explore its properties. The theory of dessins d'enfants shows that the inverse limit of GT(G) as G varies can be identified with a group…
We develop the theory of root clusters further in this article and give some applications. We introduce some new notions as well as recall earlier notions for field extensions over a perfect base field: root cluster size, its generalization…
The main problem this thesis deals with is the characterization of profinite groups which are realizable as absolute Galois groups of fields: this is currently one of the major problems in Galois theory. Usually one reduces the problem to…
We investigate the first two Galois cohomology groups of $p$-extensions over a base field which does not necessarily contain a primitive $p$th root of unity. We use twisted coefficients in a systematic way. We describe field extensions…
Using Galois representations attached to elliptic curves, we construct Galois extensions of $\mathbb{Q}$ with group $GL_2(p)$ in which all decomposition groups are cyclic. This is the first such realization for all primes $p$.
We show that if F is the rational numbers or a multiquadratic number field, p is 2,3, or 5, and K/F is a Galois extension of degree a power of p, then for elliptic curves E/Q ordered by height, the average dimension of the p-Selmer groups…
For any finite cyclic $p$-group $G$, we will show that every $\mathbb{Z}_p$-torsion free finitely generated $\mathbb{Z}_p[G]$-module appears as $\mathcal{O}_K^\times\otimes_{\mathbb{Z}}\mathbb{Z}_p$ up to $\mathbb{Z}_p[G]$-free direct…
Let F be an unramified extension of Qp. The first aim of this work is to develop a purely local method to compute the potentially Barsotti-Tate deformations rings with tame Galois type of irreducible two-dimensional representations of the…
We extend the lifting methods of our previous paper to lift reducible odd representations $\bar{\rho}:\mathrm{Gal}(\overline{F}/F) \to G(k)$ of Galois groups of global fields $F$ valued in Chevalley groups $G(k)$. Lifting results, when…
Continuing the line of thought of an earlier work, we provide the first infinite family of quadratic number fields with everywhere unramified Galois extensions of Galois group $SL_2(5)$, the (unique) smallest nonsolvable group for which…
We investigate the rank gain of elliptic curves, and more generally, Jacobian varieties, over non-Galois extensions whose Galois closure has Galois group permutation-isomorphic to a prescribed group $G$ (in short, "$G$-extensions"). In…
For a number field $k$ and an odd prime number $p$, we consider the maximal multiple $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension $\tilde{k}$ of $k$ and the unramified Iwasawa module $X(\tilde{k})$, which is the Galois group of the maximal unramified abelian…
We consider a mod 7 Galois representation attached to a genus 2 Siegel cuspforms of level 1 and weight 28 and using some of its Fourier coefficients and eigenvalues computed by N. Skoruppa and the classification of maximal subgroups of…
Let $p$ be an odd prime. For a number field $K$, we let $K_\infty$ be the maximal unramified pro-$p$ extension of $K$; we call the group $\mathrm{Gal}(K_\infty/K)$ the $p$-class tower group of $K$. In a previous work, as a non-abelian…
