Classical applications of Galois theory concern algebraic numbers and algebraic functions. Still, the night before his duel, Galois wrote that his last mathematical thoughts had been directed toward applying his "theory of ambiguity to…
This work explores the deformation theory of algebraic structures in a very general setting. These structures include commutative, associative algebras, Lie algebras, and the infinity versions of these structures, the strongly homotopy…
From its early beginnings up to nowadays, algebraic number theory has evolved in symbiosis with Galois theory: indeed, one could hold that it consists in the very study of the absolute Galois group of the field of rational numbers. Nothing…
While geometry with transcendental curves, like the Quadratrix of Hippias and the Spiral of Archimedes, played a significant role in our modern developments of geometry and algebra. The investigation has fallen off in the modern era despite…
Higher structures - infinity algebras and other objects up to homotopy, categorified algebras, `oidified' concepts, operads, higher categories, higher Lie theory, higher gauge theory... - are currently intensively investigated in…
A mixture of an historical article, and of a survey of recent developments, containing also a couple of new results.
We describe the formalisation in Coq of a proof that the numbers e and $\pi$ are transcendental. This proof lies at the interface of two domains of mathematics that are often considered separately: calculus (real and elementary complex…
This is a survey paper presenting the history and both old and new results related to Kostant's problem. This problem asks for which modules over a semi-simple finite dimensional complex Lie algebra, the universal enveloping algebra…
Here we propose a survey on Mahler's theory for transcendence and algebraic independence focusing on certain applications to the arithmetic of periods of Anderson t-motives.
This expository article written for the Notices of the American Mathematical Society provides an overview of transcendental functions arising as solutions of the discrete Painlev\'e equations, for which the developments of the last two…
Attempting to create a general framework for studying new results on transcendental numbers, this paper begins with a survey on transcendental numbers and transcendence, it then presents several properties of the transcendental numbers $e$…
An introduction to modern theories for the origin of structure in the Universe is given. After a brief review of the growth of cosmological perturbations in an expanding Universe and a summary of some important observational results, the…
The Hodge theory of complex algebraic varieties is at heart a transcendental comparison of two algebraic structures. We survey the recent advances bounding this transcendence, mainly due to the introduction of o- minimal geometry as a…
In this paper, the definitions of algebras of quotients and Martandale-like qoutients of Leibniz algebras are introduced and the interactions between the two quotients are determined. Firstly, some important properties which not only hold…
In the last 30 years, the mathematical theory of aperiodic order has developed enormously. Many new tilings and properties have been discovered, few of which are covered or anticipated by the early papers and books. Here, we start from the…
These notes closely correspond to a series of lectures given by the first author in Toulouse, on the recent extension of the theory of ODE well-posedness to abstract spaces, jointly obtained by the two authors. In the last part, we describe…
This is a introductory survey of some recent developments of "Galois ideas" in Arithmetic, Complex Analysis, Transcendental Number Theory and Quantum Field Theory, and of some of their interrelations.
In the first part I set out some unexplored historical material about the early development of cosmic topology. In the second part I briefly comment new developments in the field since the Lachieze-Rey & Luminet report (1995), both from a…
Recently there has been a lot of research and progress in profinite groups. We survey some of the new results and discuss open problems. A central theme is decompositions of finite groups into bounded products of subsets of various kinds…
We study modules over the ring $\widetilde{\C}$ of complex generalized numbers from a topological point of view, introducing the notions of $\widetilde{\C}$-linear topology and locally convex $\widetilde{\C}$-linear topology. In this…
