We consider the class of complete discretely valued fields such that the residue field is of prime characteristic p and the cardinality of a $p$-base is 1. This class includes two-dimensional local and local-global fields. A new definition…
Quaternion extensions are often the smallest extensions to exhibit special properties. In the setting of the Hasse-Arf Theorem, for instance, quaternion extensions are used to illustrate the fact that upper ramification numbers need not be…
We consider p-extensions of number fields such that the filtration of the Galois group by higher ramification groups is of prescribed finite length. We extend well-known properties of tame extensions to this more general setting; for…
We compute the ramification filtration on wildly ramified $p^2$-cyclic extensions of local fields of characteristic $p$. The ramification filtration on the compositum of two $p$-cyclic and $p^2$-cyclic extensions are also computed. As an…
A self-similar growth-fragmentation describes the evolution of particles that grow and split as time passes. Its genealogy yields a self-similar continuum tree endowed with an intrinsic measure. Extending results of Haas for pure…
We extend classical results on simple varieties of trees (asymptotic enumeration, average behavior of tree parameters) to trees counted by their number of leaves. Motivated by genome comparison of related species, we then apply these…
In this paper we present a classification of the possible upper ramification jumps for an elementary abelian p-extension of a p-adic field. The fundamental step for the proof of the main result is the computation of the ramification…
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…
We give a brief re-exposition of the theory due to Pauli and Sinclair of ramification polygons of Eisenstein polynomials over p-adic fields, their associated residual polynomials and an algorithm to produce all extensions for a given…
We show how the ramification filtration on the maximal elementary abelian p-extension (p prime) on a local number field of residual characteristic p can be derived using only Kummer theory and a certain orthogonality relation for the Kummer…
This is an introduction to author's ramification theory of a complete discrete valuation field with residue field whose p-basis consists of at most one element. New lower and upper filtrations are defined; cyclic extensions of degree p may…
We present a novel approach for deriving KAM-type linearization theorems directly -- and almost immediately -- from the existence of the stable foliation for a renormalization operator. We give a few illustrations in dynamics in one and…
Let $p$ be a prime and let $\mathbb{Q}_p$ be the field of $p$-adic numbers. It is known that the finite extensions of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ of a given degree are finite up to isomorphism. Given a cubic field extension $L$ of $\mathbb{Q}_p$…
In this summary of my talk at Strings 2016, I explain how classical dynamics on an infinite tree graph can be dual to a conformal field theory defined over the $p$-adic numbers. An informal introduction to $p$-adic numbers is followed by a…
We examine a pair of dynamical systems on the plane induced by a pair of spanning trees in the Cayley graph of the Super-Apollonian group of Graham, Lagarias, Mallows, Wilks and Yan. The dynamical systems compute Gaussian rational…
This write-up contains some minor results and notes related to our work [HQ15] (some of them already known in the literature). In particular, it shows the following: - We show that a graph with polynomial expansion have sublinear…
We compute the higher ramification groups and the Artin conductors of radical extensions of the rationals. As an application, we give formulas for their discriminant (using the conductor-discriminant formula). The interest in such number…
Let K be a complete discretely valued field of mixed characteristic (0, p) with possibly imperfect residue field. We prove a Hasse-Arf theorem for the arithmetic ramification filtrations on G_K, except possibly in the absolutely unramified…
For certain HNN extensions including Baumslag-Solitar groups, a treeing is constructed from their certain probability-measure-preserving actions. This is a treeing of a quotient groupoid of the translation groupoid associated with their…
Suppose G is a semi-direct product of the form Z/p^n \rtimes Z/m where p is prime and m is relatively prime to p. Suppose K is a local field of characteristic p > 0. The main result states necessary and sufficient conditions on the…
