Let $q=p^k$ be a prime power, let $n\geq2$ be an integer and let $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ be a finite field. It is shown that the set of primitive normal elements is a Salem set. Furthermore, it is proved that this set is strongly equidistributed…
We associate with every etale groupoid G two normal subgroups S(G) and A(G) of the topological full group of G, which are analogs of the symmetric and alternating groups. We prove that if G is a minimal groupoid of germs (e.g., of a group…
Let $G$ be a Frobenius group with an abelian Frobenius kernel $F$ and let $k$ be a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}$. We obtain an upper bound for the number of degree $|F|$ algebraic extensions $K/k$ with Galois group $G$ with the norm of…
Let $p$ be a prime number and let $F$ be a field of characteristic different from $p$. We prove that there exist a field extension $L/F$ and $a,b,c,d$ in $L^{\times}$ such that $(a,b)=(b,c)=(c,d)=0$ in $\mathrm{Br}(F)[p]$ but $\langle…
Let $E$ be a primarily quasilocal field, $M/E$ a finite Galois extension and $D$ a central division $E$-algebra of index divisible by $[M\colon E]$. In addition to the main result of Part I, this part of the paper shows that if the Galois…
In 2013, Huczynska, Mullen, Panario and Thomson introduced the concept of $k$-normal elements: an element $\alpha \in \mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ is $k$-normal over $\mathbb{F}_q$ if the greatest common divisor of the polynomials $g_{\alpha}(x)=…
If $L/K$ is a finite Galois extension of local fields, we say that the valuation criterion $VC(L/K)$ holds if there is an integer $d$ such that every element $x \in L$ with valuation $d$ generates a normal basis for $L/K$. Answering a…

Malle proposed a conjecture for counting the number of $G$-extensions $L/K$ with discriminant bounded above by $X$, denoted $N(K,G;X)$, where $G$ is a fixed transitive subgroup $G\subset S_n$ and $X$ tends towards infinity. We introduce a…
For a finite Galois extension K/k and an intermediate field F such that Gal(K/F) has a normal complement in Gal(K/k), we construct and characterize Hopf Galois structures on K/k which are induced by a pair of Hopf Galois structures on K/F…
Let a and f be coprime positive integers. Let g be an integer. Under the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH) it follows by a result of H.W. Lenstra that the set of primes p such that p=a(mod f) and g is a primitive root modulo p has a…

An element $\alpha \in \mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ is normal over $\mathbb{F}_q$ if $\mathcal{B}=\{\alpha, \alpha^q, \alpha^{q^2}, \cdots, \alpha^{q^{n-1}}\}$ forms a basis of $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ as a vector space over $\mathbb{F}_q$. It is well known…
We say a tame Galois field extension $L/K$ with Galois group $G$ has trivial Galois module structure if the rings of integers have the property that $\Cal{O}_{L}$ is a free $\Cal{O}_{K}[G]$-module. The work of Greither, Replogle, Rubin, and…
