Real forms of a complex reductive group are classified in terms of Galois cohomology $H^1(\Gamma,G_{ad})$ where $G_{ad}$ is the adjoint group. Alternatively, the theory of the Cartan involution gives a description in terms of cohomology…

Let K be a global field, that is, a number field or a global function field. It is known that the answer to the question in the title over K is "Yes" when K has no real embeddings. We show that otherwise the answer is "No". Namely, we show…

For a connected semisimple group G over the field of real numbers R, using a method of Onishchik and Vinberg, we compute the first Galois cohomology set H^1(R,G) in terms of Kac labelings of the affine Dynkin diagram of G.

We prove that any semi-simple representation of the Galois group of a number field coming from geometry appears as a subquotient of the ring of regular functions on the pro-algebraic completion of the fundamental group of the projective…

The fundamental group of Fermat and generalized Fermat curves is computed. These curves are Galois ramified covers of the projective line with abelian Galois groups $H$. We provide a unified study of the action of both cover Galois group…

Let G be a linear algebraic group, not necessarily connected or reductive, over the field of real numbers R. We describe a method, implemented on computer, to find the first Galois cohomology set H^1(R,G). The output is a list of 1-cocycles…

Let G be a connected, compact, semisimple algebraic group over the field of real numbers R. Using Kac diagrams, we describe combinatorially the first Galois cohomology sets H^1(R,H) for all inner forms H of G. As examples, we compute…

We give a description of the Picard group of a reductive group over a number field as an abelianized Galois cohomology group. It gives another approach of a result due to Labesse.

We classify Galois objects for the dual of a group algebra of a finite group over an arbitrary field.

We classify all cubic function fields over any finite field, particularly developing a complete Galois theory which includes those cases when the constant field is missing certain roots of unity. In doing so, we find criteria which allow…

For any type of fundamental groupoid scheme, we construct an algebraic cohomology theory for varieties with coefficients in the base field. This is a minor variant of \'etale cohomology, involving neither de Rham complexes nor…

In this ongoing work, we extend to a class of well-behaved pre-special hyperfields the work of J. Min\'a\v c and Spira (\cite{minac1996witt}) that describes a (pro-2)-group of a field extension that encodes the quadratic form theory of a…

We prove that for any split almost-simple connected reductive group G over a p-adic field F, the Kottwitz homomorphism exhibits a homomorphic section. We then extend this result to certain additional split connected reductive groups.

We study the global analogue of the Fargues-Fontaine curve over function fields $F$. We prove some foundational results about its moduli of $G$-bundles $\operatorname{Bun}_{G,F}$, which is a geometrization of the global Kottwitz set…

Some sorts of generalized morphisms are defined from very basic mathematical objects such as sets, functions, and partial functions. A wide range of mathematical notions such as continuous functions between topological spaces, ring…

Generalising the notion of Galois corings, Galois comodules were introduced as comodules $P$ over an $A$-coring $\cC$ for which $P_A$ is finitely generated and projective and the evaluation map $\mu_\cC:\Hom^\cC(P,\cC)\ot_SP\to \cC$ is an…

We introduce group corings, and study functors between categories of comodules over group corings, and the relationship to graded modules over graded rings. Galois group corings are defined, and a Structure Theorem for the $G$-comodules…

We make further observations on the features of Galois cohomology in the general model theoretic context. We make explicit the connection between forms of definable groups and first cohomology sets with coefficients in a suitable…

We develop Kummer theory for algebraic function fields in finitely many transcendental variables. We consider any finitely generated Kummer extension (possibly, over a cyclotomic extension) of an algebraic function field, and describe the…

The absolute Galois group of the cyclotomic field $K={\mathbb Q}(\zeta_p)$ acts on the \'etale homology of the Fermat curve $X$ of exponent $p$. We study a Galois cohomology group which is valuable for measuring an obstruction for…
