Suppose a finite group $G$ acts on a manifold $M$. By a theorem of Mostow, also Palais, there is a $G$-equivariant embedding of $M$ into the $m$-dimensional Euclidean space $\RR^{m}$ for some $m$. We are interested in some explicit bounds…

In this article we present a new method to obtain polynomial lower bounds for Galois orbits of torsion points of one dimensional group varieties.

We begin with a review of the notion of a braid group. We then discuss some known solutions to decision problems in braid groups. We then move on to proving new results in braid group algorithmics. We offer a quick solution to the…

This paper introduces a systematic approach towards the inverse problem for arboreal Galois representations of finite index attached to quadratic polynomials. Let $F$ be a field of characteristic $\neq 2$, $f\in F[x]$ be monic and quadratic…

Chiral vertex-operators are defined for continuous quantum-group spins $J$ from free-field realizations of the Coulomb-gas type. It is shown that these generalized chiral vertex operators satisfy closed braiding relations on the unit…

This paper studies Galois extensions over real quadratic number fields or cyclotomic number fields ramified only at one prime. In both cases, the ray class groups are computed, and they give restrictions on the finite groups that can occur…

Greither and Pareigis have established a connection between Hopf Galois structures on a Galois extension $L/K$ with Galois group $G$, and the regular subgroups of the group of permutations on $G$, which are normalized by $G$. Byott has…

We show that the author's notion of Galois extensions of braided tensor categories [22], see also [3], gives rise to braided crossed G-categories, recently introduced for the purposes of 3-manifold topology [31]. The Galois extensions C…

In this note we solve the twisted conjugacy problem for braid groups, i.e. we propose an algorithm which, given two braids $u,v\in B_n$ and an automorphism $\phi \in Aut (B_n)$, decides whether $v=(\phi (x))^{-1}ux$ for some $x\in B_n$. As…

In this article, we realize some groups as Galois groups over rational numbers and finite extension of rational numbers by studying right splitting of some exact sequences, Galois correspondence and algebraic operations on Galois…

We realize Frobenius conjugacy classes in Galois groups of certain $q$-polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$ using specific degree 1 ideals. We combine this with methods from elementary linear algebra and group theory to realize transvections…

Let $C \subset \mathbb{P}^2$ be a plane curve of degree at least three. A point $P$ in projective plane is said to be Galois if the function field extension induced by the projection $\pi_P: C \dashrightarrow \mathbb P^1$ from $P$ is…

Let $\widehat{G}$ be a finite group, $N $ a normal subgroup of $\widehat{G}$ and $\theta\in \operatorname{Irr}N$. Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a subfield of the complex numbers and assume that the Galois orbit of $\theta$ over $\mathbb{F}$ is…

The braid group has recently attracted much attention. This is primarily based upon the discovery of its usage in various cryptosystems [AAG],[KLCHKP]. One major focus of current research has been in solving decision problems in braid…

We establish automatic realizations of Galois groups among groups M\rtimes G, where G is a cyclic group of order p^n for a prime p and M is a quotient of the group ring Fp[G].

For any $n>1$, we construct examples branched Galois coverings from $M$ to the nth projective space ${\mathbb P}^n$ where $M$ is one of $({\mathbb P}^1)^n$, ${\mathbb C}^n$ or $(B_1)^n$, and $B_1$ is the 1-ball. In terms of orbifolds, this…

Let $F$ be a field with characteristic $\neq 2$. We show that $F$ is a nonrigid field if and only if certain small 2-groups occur as Galois groups over $F$. These results provide new "automatic realizability" results for Galois groups over…

We show that for a large class of finite groups G, the number of Galois extensions E/Q of group G and discriminant $|d_E|\leq y$ grows like a power of $y$ (for some specified exponent). The groups G are the regular Galois groups over Q and…

In this preprint we present an outline of the multidimensional version of topological Galois theory. The theory studies topological obstruction to solvability of equations "in finite terms" (i.e. to their solvability by radicals, by…
