Let $p$ be a prime number. In this article we present a theorem, suggested by Peter Scholze, which states that the absolute Galois group of $\mathbf{Q}_p$ is the \'etale fundamental group of a certain object $Z$ which is defined over an…

In 2003 Klazar proved that the ordinary generating function of the sequence of Bell numbers is differentially transcendental over the field $\mathbb{C}(\{t\})$ of meromorphic functions at $0$. We show that Klazar's result is an instance of…

We prove a Galois-type correspondence between compositions of purely inseparable field extensions (including infinite ones) and subalgebras of differential operators. This correspondence can be utilized to establish a connection between…

Grothendieck's conjecture on p-curvatures predicts that an arithmetic differential equation has a full set of algebraic solutions if and only if its reduction in positive characteristic has a full set of rational solutions for almost all…

In this paper we consider the problem of Galois descent for suitably completed algebraic K-theory of fields. One of the main results is a suitable form of rigidity for Borel-style generalized equivariant cohomology with respect to certain…

The fundamental theorem of arithmetic factorizes any integer into a product of prime numbers. The Jordan-Holder theorem dissolves many groups by their normal series which can be refined into composition series. The main topic of this thesis…

We give a quantitative version of a result due to N. Katz about L-functions of elliptic curves over function fields over finite fields. Roughly speaking, Katz's Theorem states that, on average over a suitably chosen algebraic family, the…

Differential Galois theory has played important roles in the theory of integrability of linear differential equation. In this paper we will extend the theory to nonlinear case and study the integrability of the first order nonlinear…

It is known that the existential theory of equations in free groups is decidable. This is a famous result of Makanin. On the other hand it has been shown that the scheme of his algorithm is not primitive recursive. In this paper we present…

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 study the irreducibility and Galois group of random polynomials over function fields. We prove that a random polynomial $f=y^n+\sum_{i=0}^{n-1}a_i(x)y^i\in\mathbb F_q[x][y]$ with i.i.d coefficients $a_i$ taking values in the set…

For a prime p, we study the Galois groups of maximal pro-$p$ extensions of imaginary quadratic fields unramified outside a finite set $S$, where $S$ consists of one or two finite places not lying above $p$. When $p$ is odd, we give explicit…

Let $F$ be a number field with ring of integers $O_F$ and let $G$ be a finite group. We describe an approach to the study of the set of realisable classes in the locally free class group $Cl(O_FG)$ of $O_FG$ that involves applying the work…

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…

These are the notes for an undergraduate course at the University of Edinburgh, 2021-2023. Assuming basic knowledge of ring theory, group theory and linear algebra, the notes lay out the theory of field extensions and their Galois groups,…

We prove an Ax-Lindemann-Weierstrass differential transcendence result for Euler's gamma function, namely that the functions $\Gamma(\nu-\zeta_1(\nu)),\dots,\Gamma(\nu-\zeta_n(\nu))$ are differentially independent over the field of rational…

Extension conjecture states that if a simple module over an artin algebra has nonzero first self-extension group then it has nonzero i-th self-extension group for infinitely many positive integers i. It is shown by recollement of…

According to Liouville's Theorem, an indefinite integral of an elementary function is usually not an elementary function. In this notes, we discuss that statement and a proof of this result. The differential Galois group of the extension…

We show that a finite-dimensional tame division algebra D over a Henselian field F has a maximal subfield Galois over F if and only if its residue division algebra has a maximal subfield Galois over the residue field of F. This generalizes…

We present a difference analogue of a result given by Hrushovski on differential Galois groups under specialization. Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and $\mathbb{X}$ an irreducible affine algebraic variety…
