We introduce and study a natural class of fields in which certain first-order definable sets are existentially definable, and characterise this class by a number of equivalent conditions. We show that global fields belong to this class, and…

We construct non-isogenous simple ordinary abelian varieties over an algebraic closure of a finite field with isomorphic endomorphism algebras.

It is shown that there exists a duality among fields. If a field is dual to another field, the solution of the field can be obtained from the dual field by the duality transformation. We give a general result on the dual fields. Different…

In this paper we explore the concept of {\em good heredity} for fields from a group theoretic perspective. Extending results from \cite{alice}, we show that several natural families of fields are of good heredity, and some others are not.…

We consider infinite parametric families of high degree number fields composed of quadratic fields with pure cubic, pure quartic, pure sextic fields and with the so called simplest cubic, simplest quartic fields. We explicitly describe an…

We construct and study fields F with the property that F has infinitely many extensions of some fixed degree, but E*/(E*)^n is finite for every finite extension E of F and every n>0.

Given a totally real number field $F$, we show that there are only finitely many totally real extensions of $K$ of a fixed degree that admit a universal quadratic form defined over $F$. We further obtain several explicit classification…

Let G be an algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic zero. We give a simple proof of the following result: if H^1(L, G) = {1} for some finitely generated field extension L/k of transcendence degree \ge…

We introduce the notion of differential largeness for fields equipped with several commuting derivations (as an analogue to largeness of fields). We lay out the foundations of this new class of "tame" differential fields. We state several…

Let $A$ be a finite-dimensional $k$-algebra and $K/k$ be a finite separable field extension. We prove that $A$ is derived equivalent to a hereditary algebra if and only if so is $A\otimes_kK$.

We give a full classification, up to equivalence, of finite-dimensional graded division algebras over the field of real numbers. The grading group is any abelian group.

We prove that if $\mathbb{F}$ is an algebraically closed field of zero characteristic which has infinite transcendence degree over $\mathbb{Q}$, then there exists a field automorphism $\varphi$ of ${\rm SL}_n(\mathbb{F})$ and ${\rm…

This article initiates the study of topological transcendental fields $\FF$ which are subfields of the topological field $\CC$ of all complex numbers such that $\FF$ consists of only rational numbers and a nonempty set of transcendental…

We examine when division algebras can share common splitting fields of certain types. In particular, we show that one can find fields for which one has infinitely many Brauer classes of the same index and period at least 3, all…

We prove the following theorem for a finitely generated field $K$: Let $M$ be a Galois extension of $K$ which is not separably closed. Then $M$ is not PAC over $K$.

We construct a computable, computably categorical field of infinite transcendence degree over the rational numbers, using the Fermat polynomials and assorted results from algebraic geometry. We also show that this field has an intrinsically…

In this work, we classify all finite groups such that for every field extension F of \mathbb{Q}, F is the field of values of at most 3 irreducible characters.

We provide a characterisation of differentially large fields in arbitrary characteristic and a single derivation in the spirit of Blum axioms for differentially closed fields. In the case of characteristic zero, we use these axioms to…

We show that any finitely generated group $F$ with infinitely many ends is not a group of fractions of any finitely generated proper subsemigroup $P$, that is $F$ cannot be expressed as a product $P P^{-1}$. In particular this solves a…

Given a field $F$, an \'etale extension $L/F$ and an Azumaya algebra $A/L$, one knows that there are extensions $E/F$ such that $A \otimes_F E$ is a split algebra over $L \otimes_F E$. In this paper we bound the degree of a minimal…
