We show that a closed finite index subgroup of a free proalgebraic group is itself a free proalgebraic group. Our main motivation for this result is an application in differential Galois theory: The absolute differential Galois group of a…
We determine the differential Galois group of the family of all regular singular differential equations on the Riemann sphere. It is the free proalgebraic group on a set of cardinality $|\mathbb{C}|$.
We study families of linear differential equations parametrized by an algebraic variety $\mathcal{X}$ and show that the set of all points $x\in \mathcal{X}$, such that the differential Galois group at the generic fibre specializes to the…
We show that every linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero is the differential Galois group of a regular singular linear differential equation with rational function coefficients.
Let $C \langle t_1, \dots t_l\rangle$ be the differential field generated by $l$ differential indeterminates $\boldsymbol{t}=(t_1, \dots ,t_l)$ over an algebraically closed field $C$ of characteristic zero. We develop a lower bound…
Let $G$ be a classical group of Lie rank $l$ and let $C$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. For $l$ differential indeterminates $\boldsymbol{v}=(v_1,\dots,v_l)$ over $C$ we constructed in a previous paper a general…
In this manuscript, we apply patching methods to give a positive answer to the inverse differential Galois problem over function fields over Laurent series fields of characteristic zero. More precisely, we show that any linear algebraic…
We study the inverse problem in the difference Galois theory of linear differential equations over the difference-differential field $\mathbb{C}(x)$ with derivation $\frac{d}{dx}$ and endomorphism $f(x)\mapsto f(x+1)$. Our main result is…
We present an algorithm that determines the Galois group of linear difference equations with rational function coefficients.
We classify all cubic function fields over any finite field, particularly developing a complete Galois theory which includes those cases when the constant field is missing certain roots of unity. In doing so, we find criteria which allow…
We introduce the notion of differential torsors, which allows the adaptation of constructions from algebraic geometry to differential Galois theory. Using these differential torsors, we set up a general framework for applying patching…
We give an explicit description of the arithmetic-geometric extension of iterated Galois groups of rational functions. This yields a complete solution to the extension problem when either the arithmetic or the geometric iterated Galois…
Using the action of the Galois group of a normal extension of number fields, we generalize and symmetrize various fundamental statements in algebra and algebraic number theory concerning splitting types of prime ideals, factorization types…
Let $P\in\mathbb Q[t,x]$ be a polynomial in two variables with rational coefficients, and let $G$ be the Galois group of $P$ over the field $\mathbb Q(t)$. It follows from Hilbert's Irreducibility Theorem that for most rational numbers $c$…
Let $H$ be a skew field of finite dimension over its center $k$. We solve the Inverse Galois Problem over the field of fractions $H(X)$ of the ring of polynomial functions over $H$ in the variable $X$, if $k$ contains an ample field.
A central conjecture in inverse Galois theory, proposed by D\`{e}bes and Deschamps, asserts that every finite split embedding problem over an arbitrary field can be regularly solved. We give an unconditional proof of a consequence of this…
Replacing finite groups by linear algebraic groups, we study an algebraic-geometric counterpart of the theory of free profinite groups. In particular, we introduce free proalgebraic groups and characterize them in terms of embedding…
Let k be a p-adic field. Some time ago, D. Harbater [9] proved that any finite group G may be realized as a regular Galois group over the rational function field in one variable k(t), namely there exists a finite field extension $F/k(t)$,…
We give a complete list of rational functions $A$ such that the genus $g$ of the Galois closure of $\mathbb C(z)/\mathbb C(A)$ equals zero. We also provide a geometric description of $A$ for which $g=1.$
