Regular groups and fields are common generalizations of minimal and quasi-minimal groups and fields, so the conjectures that minimal or quasi-minimal fields are algebraically closed have their common generalization to the conjecture that…

We prove that united K-theory is a surjective functor from the category of real simple purely infinite C*-algebras to the cateogry of countable acyclic CRT-modules.

We give an upper bound for the norm of the determinant of additively indecomposable, totally positive definite quadratic forms defined over the ring of integers of totally real number fields. We apply these results to find lower and upper…

We obtain good estimates on the ranks of universal quadratic forms over Shanks' family of the simplest cubic fields and several other families of totally real number fields. As the main tool we characterize all the indecomposable integers…

We study the collection of group structures that can be realized as a group of rational points on an elliptic curve over a finite field (such groups are well known to be of rank at most two). We also study various subsets of this collection…

A field $k$ is called large if every irreducible $k$-curve with a $k$-rational smooth point has infinitely many $k$-points. Let $k$ be a perfect large field and let $f \in k[x]$. Consider the evaluation map $f_k: k \to k$. Assume that $f_k$…

Let $K$ be a number field of degree $n$ over ${\mathbb Q}$. Then the 4-rank of the strict class group of $K$ is at least ${\text{rank}_2 \, } ({ E_{K}^{+} } / E_K^2) - \lfloor n /2 \rfloor$ where $E_K$ and ${ E_{K}^{+} }$ denote the units…

We investigate the relative assembly map from the family of finite subgroups to the family of virtually cyclic subgroups for the algebraic $K$-theory of twisted group rings of a group G with coefficients in a regular ring R or, more…

This paper establishes a relationship between finite extensions and norm groups of formally real quasilocal fields, which yields a generally nonabelian local class field theory, including analogues to the fundamental correspondence, the…

An element $\alpha \in \mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ is normal over $\mathbb{F}_q$ if $\mathcal{B}=\{\alpha, \alpha^q, \alpha^{q^2}, \cdots, \alpha^{q^{n-1}}\}$ forms a basis of $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ as a vector space over $\mathbb{F}_q$. It is well known…

We consider the valued field $\mathds{K}:=\mathbb{R}((\Gamma))$ of generalized series (with real coefficients and monomials in a totally ordered multiplicative group $\Gamma$). We investigate how to endow $\mathds{K}$ with a series…

For every number field $\mathbb{K}$, with $[\mathbb{K}:\mathbb{Q}] \geq 3$, we show that the number of non-associates of the same norm in a full module in $\mathbb{K}$ does not depend only on $\mathbb{K}$, but can also depend on the module…

By a proper cover of a finite group G we mean an extension of a nontrivial finite group by G. Our purpose is to show that a proper cover of a finite simple group L of Lie type always contains an element whose order differs from the element…

The K-theory of a functor may be viewed as a relative version of the K-theory of a ring. In the case of a Galois extension of a number field F/L with rings of integers A/B respectively, this K-theory of the "norm functor" is an extension of…

We determine a necessary and sufficient condition for a polynomial over an algebraically closed field $k$ to induce a surjective map on matrix algebras $M_n(k)$ for $n \ge 2$. The criterion is given in terms of critical points and uses…

Let $k$ be a rational congruence function field and consider an arbitrary finite separable extension $K/k$. If for each prime in $k$ ramified in $K$ we have that at least one ramification index is not divided by the characteristic of $K$,…

In this paper, a method for constructing a near optimal normal basis for algebraic extensions of a finite field is described. In each extension, except for the squares of basis elements, the product of two distinct normal basis elements can…

We give a completely normal element in the maximal real subfield of a cyclotomic field over the field of rational numbers, which is different from that of Okada. This result is a consequence of the criterion for a normal element developed…

For valued fields $K$ of rank higher than 1, we describe how elements in the henselization $K^h$ of $K$ can be approximated from within $K$; our result is a handy generalization of the well-known fact that in rank 1, all of these elements…

We consider complex rational vector fields that admit a first integral whose logarithmic derivative lies in a finite extension of the rational function field $K$. In view of the Prelle-Singer theorem, these are the rational vector fields…
