We study the arithmetic of division fields of semistable abelian varieties A over the rationals. The Galois group of the 2-division field of A is analyzed when the conductor is odd and squarefree. The irreducible semistable mod 2…

Astonishing new discoveries with quartets and octets of cyclic cubic fields sharing a common conductor are presented. Four kinds of graphs describing cubic residue conditions among the prime divisors of the conductor enforce elementary bi-…

We study the distribution of algebraic points on curves in abelian varieties over finite fields.

This paper is an extension of the work of Dummit and Voight on modeling the 2-Selmer group of number fields. We extend their model to $S_n$-number fields of even degree and develop heuristics on the difference in the 2-ranks between the…

It has long been known that to a complex cubic surface or threefold one can canonically associate a principally polarized abelian variety. We give a construction which works for cubics over an arithmetic base. This answers, away from the…

We investigate the theory of affine group schemes over a symmetric tensor category, with particular attention to the tangent space at the identity. We show that this carries the structure of a restricted Lie algebra, and can be viewed as…

We provide a clarification of the classification of two-dimensional algebras over an arbitrary base field. Using this clarification, we determine the number of non-isomorphic two-dimensional algebras over a finite field.

The aim of this paper is to study the group of isomorphism classes of torsors of finite flat group schemes of rank 2 over a commutative ring $R$. This, in particular, generalises the group of quadratic algebras (free or projective), which…

We give an explicit necessary condition for pairs of orders in a quartic CM-field to have the same polarised class group. This generalises a simpler result for imaginary quadratic fields. We give an application of our results to computing…

We study the number of elements $x$ and $y$ of a finite group $G$ such that $x \otimes y= 1_{_{G \otimes G}}$ in the nonabelian tensor square $G \otimes G$ of $G$. This number, divided by $|G|^2$, is called the tensor degree of $G$ and has…

We consider the problem of separability: decide whether a Hermitian operator on a finite dimensional Hilbert tensor product is separable or entangled. We show that the tensor convolution defined for certain mappings on an almost arbitrary…

We determine the abelianization of the symmetric mapping class group of a double unbranched cover using the Riemann theta constant, Schottky theta constant, and the theta multiplier. We also give lower bounds of the abelianizations of some…

We study a notion of indecomposability in differential algebraic groups which is inspired by both model theory and differential algebra. After establishing some basic definitions and results, we prove an indecomposability theorem for…

Cremona, Mazur, and others have studied what they call visibility of elements of Shafarevich-Tate groups of elliptic curves. The analogue for an abelian number field $K$ is capitulation of ideal classes of $K$ in the minimal cyclotomic…

There is a long-standing problem of algebra to extend the symmetric monoidal structure of abelian groups, given by the tensor product, to a non abelian setting. In this paper we show that such an extension is possible. Morover our non…

Let A be an abelian variety defined over anumber field F. In this paper, we will investigate the growth of p-rank of the fine Selmer group in three situations. In particular, in each of these situations, we show that there is a strong…

A class of Cantor-type spaces and related geometric structures are discussed.

We first provide an overview of several results dealing with the genus of a division algebra and highlight the role of ramification in its analysis. We then give a survey of recent developments on the genus problem for simple algebraic…

We prove the following theorems: Theorem 1: For any E-field with cyclic kernel, in particular $\mathbb C$ or the Zilber fields, all real abelian algebraic numbers are pointwise definable. Theorem 2: For the Zilber fields, the only pointwise…

For a class of nonassociative metagroup algebras their separability is investigated. For this purpose the cohomology theory on them is utilized. Conditions are found under which nonassociative metagroup algebras are separable. Algebras…
