Using dynamical methods we give a new proof of the theorem saying that if $A,B,X$ are rational functions of degree at least two such that $A\circ X=X\circ B$ and $\mathbb C(B,X)=\mathbb C(z)$, then the Galois closure of the field extension…
We describe relations between maximal subfields in a division ring and in its rational extensions. More precisely, we prove that properties such as being Galois or purely inseparable over the centre generically carry over from one to…
Let $K/\Q$ be a cyclic extension of number fields with Galois group $G$. We study the ideal classes of primes $\mathfrak{p}$ of $K$ of residue degree bigger than one in the class group of $K$. In particular, we explore such extensions…
We construct an infinite family of real cyclotomic fields with non-trivial class group. This result generalizes the result in [1] in the sense that our family includes theirs.
We extend several predecessor works on even sextic monogenic polynomials. In particular, we prove a conjecture of Lenny Jones, thereby classifying even sextic monogenic polynomials with cyclic Galois group. This result is key to completing…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, $F$ be an algebraically closed extension of $k$ of transcendence degree one, and $G$ be the group of automorphisms over $k$ of the field $F$. The purpose of this note is to…
Using properties of the Frobenius eigenvalues, we show that, in a precise sense, ``most'' isomorphism classes of (principally polarized) simple abelian varieties over a finite field are characterized up to isogeny by the sequence of their…
We study cyclic finite Galois extensions of the rational function field of the projective line P^{1}(F_q) over a finite field F_q with q elements defined by considering quotient curves by finite subgroups of the projective linear group…
In this paper, we find all the generic polynomials for geometric $\ell$-cyclic function field extensions over the finite fields $\mathbb{F}_q$ where $q= p^n$, $p$ prime integer such that $q \equiv -1 \mod \ell$ and $(\ell , p)=1$.
With every family of finitely many subsets of a finite-dimensional vector space over the Galois-field with two elements we associate a cyclic transversal polytope. It turns out that those polytopes generalize several well-known polytopes…
Let (k1,k2,k3,k4) be a quartet of cyclic cubic number fields sharing a common conductor c=pqr divisible by exactly three prime(power)s p,q,r. For those components k of the quartet whose 3-class group Cl(3,k) = Z/3Z x Z/3Z is elementary…
Let~$E$ be a Hilbertian field of characteristic~$0$. R.W.K. Odoni conjectured that for every positive integer~$n$ there exists a polynomial~$f\in E[X]$ of degree~$n$ such that each iterate~$f^{\circ{k}}$ of~$f$ is irreducible and the Galois…
A main problem in Galois theory is to characterize the fields with a given absolute Galois group. We apply a K-theoretic method for constructing valuations to study this problem in various situations. As a first application we obtain an…
Classes of functions of several variables on arbitrary non-empty domains that are closed under permutation of variables and addition of dummy variables are characterized in terms of generalized constraints, and hereby Hellerstein's Galois…
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 examine the Galois groups of the extensions $K((f'\circ f^n)^{-1}(0))/K$ where $K$ is a number field for polynomials $f(x)\in K[x]$. We use our understanding of this group to study the proportion of primes for which $f$ has a $\mathfrak…
We study the distribution of the Galois group of a random $q$-additive polynomial over a rational function field: For $q$ a power of a prime $p$, let $f=X^{q^n}+a_{n-1}X^{q^{n-1}}+\ldots+a_1X^q+a_0X$ be a random polynomial chosen uniformly…
We address two interrelated problems concerning the permutation of roots of univariate polynomials whose coefficients depend on parameters. First, we compute the Galois group of polynomials $\varphi(x)\in\mathbb{C}[y_1,\cdots,y_k][x]$ over…
Let $L(x)$ be any $q$-linearized polynomial with coefficients in $\mathbb{F}_q$, of degree $q^n$. We consider the Galois group of $L(x)+tx$ over $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$, where $t$ is transcendental over $\mathbb{F}_q$. We prove that when $n$ is a…
This paper is a contribution to the description of some congruences on the odd prime factors of the class number of the number fields. An example of results obtained is: Let L/Q be a finite Galois solvable extension with [L:Q]=N, where N >…
