For an algebraic torus $T$, the finite central extensions $G$ of $T$ are characterized in terms of ramification theory of regular actions of $G$ on Krull algebras over an algebraically closed base field $K$ of any characteristic.

In this paper, we investigate the possibility of constructing isomonodromic deformations of logarithmic connections on curves by using ramified covers. We give new examples and prove a classification result.

We obtain several finiteness results for the unramified cohomology of function fields of algebraic varieties defined over fields of type (F'_m), a class that includes algebraically closed fields, finite fields, local fields, and some higher…

Let $[K:\mathbb{Q}]=p$ be a prime number and let $E/K$ be an elliptic curve with $j(E) \in \mathbb{Q}$. We determine the all possibilities for $E(K)_{tors}$. We obtain these results by studying Galois representations of $E$ and of it's…

Given a field $K$, a rational function $\phi \in K(x)$, and a point $b \in \mathbb{P}^1(K)$, we study the extension $K(\phi^{-\infty}(b))$ generated by the union over $n$ of all solutions to $\phi^n(x) = b$, where $\phi^n$ is the $n$th…

Let E --> C be an elliptic surface defined over a number field K. For each finite covering C' --> C defined over K, let E' --> C' be the pullback. We give a strong upper bound for the rank of E'(C'/K) in the case that C' --> C is an…

Let K be a field and let L/K be a finite extension. Let X/K be a scheme of finite type. A point of X(L) is said to be new if it does not belong to the union of X(F), when F runs over all proper subextensions of L. Fix now an integer g>0 and…

Let $R$ be a real closed field and $K:=R(i)$ its algebraic closure. Let $U\subset K^n$ be an open and definable set in a fixed o-minimal structure. In this note, we study the relationship between definability of a $K$-holomorphic function…

We study K3 surfaces over a number field $k$ which are double covers of extremal rational elliptic surfaces. We provide a list of all elliptic fibrations on certain K3 surfaces together with the degree of a field extension over which each…

Let $F$ be a field complete with respect to a discrete valuation whose residue field is perfect of characteristic $p>0$. We prove that every smooth, projective, geometrically irreducible curve of genus one defined over $F$ with a non-zero…

The Hurwitz space is a compactification of the space of rational functions of a given degree. We study the intersection of various strata of this space with its boundary. A study of the cohomology ring of the Hurwitz space then allows us to…

In various contexts, the zeta function of an object splits into a product of $L$-functions. We categorify this product formula for quadratic covers of objects in the following contexts: quadratic extensions of number fields, ramified double…
