We consider families of number fields of degree 4 whose normal closures over $\mathbb{Q}$ have Galois group isomorphic to $D_4$, the symmetries of a square. To any such field $L$, one can associate the Artin conductor of the corresponding…

We provide an infinite family of quadratic number fields with everywhere unramified Galois extensions of Galois group $SL_2(7)$. To my knowledge, this is the first instance of infinitely many such realizations for a perfect group which is…

We give a classification theorem for certain four-dimensional families of geometric $\lambda$-adic Galois representations attached to a pure motive. More precisely, we consider families attached to the cohomology of a smooth projective…

We determine the shapes of pure cubic fields and show that they fall into two families based on whether the field is wildly or tamely ramified (of Type I or Type II in the sense of Dedekind). We show that the shapes of Type I fields are…

For each real quadratic field we constructively show the existence of infinitely many exceptional quartic number fields containing that quadratic field. On the other hand, another infinite collection of quartic exceptional fields without…

The shape of a number field is a subtle arithmetic invariant arising from the geometry of numbers. It is defined as the equivalence class of the lattice of integers with respect to linear operations that are composites of rotations,…

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 realize infinitely many covering groups $2.A_n$ (where $A_n$ is the alternating group) as the Galois group of everywhere unramified Galois extensions over infinitely many quadratic number fields. After several predecessor works…

In this paper, we consider integral and irreducible binary quartic forms whose Galois group is isomorphic to a subgroup of the dihedral group of order eight. We first show that the set of all such forms is a union of families indexed by…

We compute the asymptotic number of octic number fields whose Galois groups over $\mathbb Q$ are isomorphic to $D_4$, the symmetries of a square, when ordering such fields by their absolute discriminants. In particular, we verify the strong…

When ordered by discriminant, it is known that about 83% of quartic fields over Q have associated Galois group S_4, while the remaining 17% have Galois group D_4. We study these proportions over a general number field F. We find that…

We relate proper isometry classes of maximal lattices in a totally definite quaternary quadratic space (V,q) with trivial discriminant to certain equivalence classes of ideals in the quaternion algebra representing the Clifford invariant of…

We study quadratic forms that can occur as trace forms of Galois field extensions L/K, under the assumption that K contains a primitive 4th root of unity. M. Epkenhans conjectured that any such form is a scaled Pfister form. We prove this…

In this paper we give a survey of recent methods for the asymptotic and exact enumeration of number fields with given Galois group of the Galois closure. In particular, the case of fields of degree up to 4 is now almost completely solved,…

Let $k$ be a field, with absolute Galois group $\Gamma$. Let $A/k$ be a finite \'etale group scheme of multiplicative type, i.e. a discrete $\Gamma$-module. Let $n \geq 2$ be an integer, and let $x \in H^n(k,A)$ be a cohomology class. We…

For $n=3$, 4, and 5, we prove that, when $S_n$-number fields of degree $n$ are ordered by their absolute discriminants, the lattice shapes of the rings of integers in these fields become equidistributed in the space of lattices.
