Let p be an odd prime number and K be a p-adic field. In this paper, we develop an analogue of Fontaine's theory of (phi,Gamma)-modules replacing the p-cyclotomic extension by the extension K_infty obtained by adding to K a compatible…
The theory of p-ramification, regarding the Galois group of the maximal pro-p-extension of a number field K, unramified outside p and $\infty$, is well known including numerical experiments with PARI/GP programs. The case of ``incomplete…
We study a natural question in the Iwasawa theory of algebraic curves of genus $>1$. Fix a prime number $p$. Let $X$ be a smooth, projective, geometrically irreducible curve defined over a number field $K$ of genus $g>1$, such that the…
For a number field $k$ and an odd prime number $p$, we consider the maximal multiple $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension $\tilde{k}$ of $k$ and the unramified Iwasawa module $X(\tilde{k})$, which is the Galois group of the maximal unramified abelian…
In this paper we present two new results on the number of certain conjugacy classes of a finite group. For a finite group $G$, let $n(G)$ be the maximum of $k_{p}(G)$ taken over all primes $p$ where $k_{p}(G)$ denotes the number of…
We consider a tower of function fields F_0 < F_1 < ... over a finite field such that every place of every F_i ramified in the tower and the sequence genus(F_i)/[F_i:F_0] has a finite limit. We also construct a tower in which every place…
In this article we trace the genesis of a theorem that gives for the first time examples of Galois group $G_S$ of the maximal $p$-extension of $\mathbb{Q}$, unramified outside a finite set of primes not containing $p$, that are of…
We determine all the $p$-adic analytic groups that are realizable as Galois groups of the maximal pro-$p$ extensions of number fields with prescribed ramification and splitting under an assumption which allows us to move away from the Tame…
In this paper and a forthcoming joint one with Y. Hachimori we study Iwasawa modules over an infinite Galois extension K of a number field k whose Galois group G=G(K/k) is isomorphic to the semidirect product of two copies of the p-adic…
Cohen and Lenstra have given a heuristic which, for a fixed odd prime $p$, leads to many interesting predictions about the distribution of $p$-class groups of imaginary quadratic fields. We extend the Cohen-Lenstra heuristic to a…
Let $L/K$ be a finite Galois extension of fields with group $\Gamma$. When $\Gamma$ is nilpotent, we show that the problem of enumerating all nilpotent Hopf-Galois structures on $L/K$ can be reduced to the corresponding problem for the…
Let $G$ be a connected, absolutely almost simple, algebraic group defined over a finitely generated, infinite field $K$, and let $\Gamma$ be a Zariski dense subgroup of $G(K)$. We show, apart from some few exceptions, that the…
The tame Gras-Munnier Theorem gives a criterion for the existence of a ${\mathbb Z}/{\mathbb Z}$-extension of a number field $K$ ramified at exactly a set $S$ of places of $K$ prime to $p$ (allowing real Archimedean places when $p=2$) in…
Let $\gamma_i(G)$ and $Z_i(G)$ denote the $i$-th terms of the lower and upper central series of a group $G$, respectively. P. Hall showed that if $\gamma_{i+1}(G)$ is finite then the index $|G:Z_{2i}(G)|$ is finite. We prove that the same…
Let k be a global field, p an odd prime number different from char(k) and S, T disjoint, finite sets of primes of k. Let G_S^T(k)(p)=Gal(k_S^T(p)|k) be the Galois group of the maximal p-extension of k which is unramified outside S and…
Let k be a global field, p an odd prime number different from char(k) and S, T disjoint, finite sets of primes of k. Let G_S^T(k)(p)=Gal(k_S^T(p)|k) be the Galois group of the maximal p-extension of k which is unramified outside S and…
We prove a variation of Thompson's Theorem. Namely, if the first column of the character table of a finite group $G$ contains only two distinct values not divisible by a given prime number $p>3$, then $O^{pp'pp'}(G)=1$. This is done by…
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…
Let $p$ be an odd prime and $F_{\infty,\infty}$ a $p$-adic Lie extension of a number field $F$ with Galois group isomorphic to $\mathbb{Z}_p^r\rtimes\mathbb{Z}_p$, $r\geq 1$. Under certain assumptions, we prove an asymptotic formula for the…
The P\'olya-Ostrowski group of a Galois number field $K$, is the subgroup $Po(K)$ of the ideal class group $Cl(K)$ of $K$ generated by the classes of all the strongly ambiguous ideals of $K$. The number field $K$ is called a P\'olya field,…
