For a given positive integer $n$ and $K/\mathbb{Q}_p$ a finite extension of ramification degree $e$, we determine the number of finite Galois extensions $L/K$ with inertia degree $f$ and a single nonnegative ramification jump at $n$ as long…
We study the Siegel-Weil formula in the second term range ($n+1\leq m\leq n+r$) for unitary groups of hermitian forms over a skew-field $D$ with involution of the second kind.
Let A be a supersingular abelian variety over a finite field k. We give an approximate description of the structure of the group A(k) of rational points of A over k in terms of the characteristic polynomial f of the Frobenius endomorphism…
We establish a trace formula for rigid varieties $X$ over a complete discretely valued field, which relates the set of unramified points on $X$ to the Galois action on its \'etale cohomology. We develop a theory of motivic integration for…
This is the second in a series of papers investigating the relationship between the twisted equivariant K-theory of a compact Lie group G and the "Verlinde ring" of its loop group. We introduce the Dirac family of Fredholm operators…
Let $\mathbf{F}$ be a real extension of $\mathbb{Q}$, $G$ a finite group and $\mathbf{F}G$ its group algebra. Given both a group homomorphism $\sigma:G\rightarrow \{\pm1\}$ (called an orientation) and a group involution $^\ast:G \rightarrow…
In this article, we prove that if $H$ is a skew field of center $k$ and $\sigma$ an automorphism of finite order of $H$ such that the fixed subfield $k^{\langle \sigma \rangle}$ of $k$ under the action of $\sigma$ contains an ample field,…
We present computational results which strongly support a conjecture of Morgan and Mullen (1996), which states that for every extension $E/F$ of Galois fields there exists a primitive element of $E$ which is completely normal over $F$.
Given a number field $K$, a finite abelian group $G$ and finitely many elements $\alpha_1,\ldots,\alpha_t\in K$, we construct abelian extensions $L/K$ with Galois group $G$ that realise all of the elements $\alpha_1,\ldots,\alpha_t$ as…
Let $C \langle \boldsymbol{t} \rangle$ be the differential field generated by $l$ differential indeterminates $\boldsymbol{t}=(t_1, \dots, t_l)$ over an algebraically closed field $C$ of characteristic zero. In this article we present an…
Let F be a field, let G be its absolute Galois group, and let R(G, k) be the representation ring of G over a suitable field k. In this preprint we construct a ring homomorphism from the mod 2 Milnor K-theory k_*(F) to the graded ring gr…
If $V$ is a commutative algebraic group over a field $k$, $O$ is a commutative ring that acts on $V$, and $I$ is a finitely generated free $O$-module with a right action of the absolute Galois group of $k$, then there is a commutative…
Let $p$ and $l$ be distinct odd primes and let $n\geq 2$ be a positive integer. Let $E$ be a finite Galois extension of degree $l$ of a $p$-adic field $F$. Let $q$ be the cardinality of the residue field of $F$. Let $\overline{\pi}_F$ be a…
Let $F/E$ be a finite Galois extension of fields with abelian Galois group $\Gamma$. A self-dual normal basis for $F/E$ is a normal basis with the additional property that $Tr_{F/E}(g(x),h(x))=\delta_{g,h}$ for $g,h\in\Gamma$.…
Fix a positive integer $g$ and a squarefree integer $m$. We prove the existence of a genus $g$ curve $C/\mathbb{Q}$ such that the mod $m$ representation of its Jacobian is tame. The method is to analyse the period matrices of hyperelliptic…
Let $K$ be a field with $G_K(2) \simeq G_{\mathbb{Q}}(2)$, where $G_F(2)$ denotes the maximal pro-2 quotient of the absolute Galois group of a field $F$. We prove that then $K$ admits a (non-trivial) valuation $v$ which is 2-henselian and…
Let W be a Weyl group. We can define the notion of positivity of a W-module in terms of the corresponding module over the asymptotic Iwahori-Hecke algebra. We state a conjecture which says that certain explicit W-modules are positive and we…

Let K/F be a finite Galois extension of global fields with Galois group G and let M be a 1-motive over F. We discuss the kernel and cokernel of the restriction map Sha^{i}(F,M) --> Sha^{i}(K,M)^{G} for i=1 and 2, independently of any…
