In this paper, we prove that a refinement of the Alperin-McKay Conjecture for $p$-blocks of finite groups, formulated by I. M. Isaacs and G. Navarro in 2002, holds for all covering groups of the symmetric and alternating groups, whenever…

We give a streamlined and effective proof of Ozaki's theorem that any finite $p$-group $\Gamma$ is the Galois group of the $p$-Hilbert class field tower of some number field $\rm F$. Our work is inspired by Ozaki's and applies in broader…

Let $p$ be an odd prime. In the paper, by using the properties of Legendre polynomials we prove some congruences for $\sum_{k=0}^{\frac{p-1}2}\binom{2k}k^2m^{-k}\mod {p^2}$. In particular, we confirm several conjectures of Z.W. Sun. We also…

Let $p$ be a prime and $\mathcal{K}$ be an imaginary quadratic field. In this paper we generalize a recent construction of a new type of $p$-adic $L$-function and $p$-adic Waldspurger formula by Andreatta-Iovita for $p$ non-split in…

For a rational prime $p\neq 2$, we compute the sequence of ramification groups of a Galois, radical and finite extension $L/F$ where $F/\mathbb{Q}_p$ is an unramified finite extension. First, we compute it in the case where the exponent of…

We describe a method for counting the number of extensions of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ with a given Galois group $G$, founded upon the description of the absolute Galois group of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ due to Jannsen and Wingberg. Because this description is…

Let f be a Bianchi modular form, that is, an automorphic form for GL(2) over an imaginary quadratic field F. In this paper, we prove an exceptional zero conjecture in the case where f is new at a prime above p. More precisely, for each…

Let $G$ be a finite solvable group, and let $p$ be a prime. In this note, we prove that $p$ does not divide $\varphi(1)$ for every irreducible monomial $p$-Brauer character $\varphi$ of $G$ if and only if $G$ has a normal Sylow…

We prove the "strong conjecture" expressed by Gazeau et al. in arXiv:1203.3936v1 [math-ph] about the coefficients of the Taylor expansion of the exponential of a polynomial. This implies the "weak conjecture" as a special case. The proof…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $P$ a Sylow $2$-subgroup of $G$. We obtain both asymptotic and explicit bounds for the number of odd-degree irreducible complex representations of $G$ in terms of the size of the abelianization of $P$. To do…

We prove for finite reductive groups $G$ of classical type, that every irreducible character of $L$ extends to its inertia group in $N$, where $L$ is an abelian centraliser of a Sylow $d$-torus $\mathbf S$ of $G$ and $N:=N_G(\mathbf S)$.…

Recently, Malle and Navarro obtained a Galois strengthening of Brauer's height zero conjecture for principal $p$-blocks when $p=2$, considering a particular Galois automorphism of order~$2$. In this paper, for any prime $p$ we consider a…

We prove in particular that for any sufficiently large prime $p$ there is $1\le a<p$ such that all partial quotients of $a/p$ are bounded by $O(\log p/\log \log p)$. For composite denominators a similar result is obtained. This improves the…

Given a finite group $G$ and a prime $p$, let $\mathcal{A}_p(G)$ be the poset of nontrivial elementary abelian $p$-subgroups of $G$. The group $G$ satisfies the Quillen dimension property at $p$ if $\mathcal{A}_p(G)$ has non-zero homology…

We give a systematic method of providing numerical evidence for higher order Stark-type conjectures such as (in chronological order) Stark's conjecture over $\mathbb{Q}$, Rubin's conjecture, Popescu's conjecture, and a conjecture due to…

A finite group G with center Z is of central type if there exists a fully ramified character $\lambda\in\mathrm{Irr}(Z)$, i.e. the induced character $\lambda^G$ is a multiple of an irreducible character. Howlett-Isaacs have shown that G is…

We prove a variant of the Theorem of Ito-Michler, investigating the properties of finite groups where a prime number $p$ does not divide the degree of any irreducible character left invariant by some Galois automorphism $\sigma$ of order…

For an odd prime p, we determine a minimal set of topological generators of the pro-p Iwahori subgroup of a split reductive group G over Z\_p. In the simple adjoint case and for any sufficiently large regular prime p, we also construct…

In this paper, for a CM abelian extension $K/k$ of number fields, we propose a conjecture which describes completely the Fitting ideal of the minus part of the Pontryagin dual of the $T$-ray class group of $K$ for a set $T$ of primes as a…

Let $G$ be a finite $p$-group, where $p$ is an odd prime number, $H$ be a subgroup of $G$ and $\theta\in \Irr(H)$ be an irreducible character of $H$. Assume also that $|G:H|=p^2$. Then the character $\theta^G$ of $ G$ induced by $\theta$ is…
