We consider $p$-blocks with abelian defect groups and in the first part prove a relationship between its Loewy length and that for blocks of normal subgroups of index $p$. Using this, we show that if $B$ is a $2$-block of a finite group…
In this paper, we study the fine Selmer groups of two congruent Galois representations over an admissible $p$-adic Lie extension. We show that under appropriate congruence conditions, if the dual fine Selmer group of one is pseudo-null, so…
We put forward a conjecture for the leading constant in Malle's conjecture on number fields of bounded discriminant, guided by stacky versions of conjectures of Batyrev-Manin, Batyrev-Tschinkel, and Peyre on rational points of bounded…
The Galois Alperin weight (GAW) conjecture has been reduced to the inductive GAW condition for simple groups. We proceed in two steps to refine this reduction. First, we propose the blockwise Galois Alperin weight (BGAW) conjecture and…
In the representation theory of finite groups, there is a well-known and important conjecture, due to Brou\'e saying that for any prime p, if a p-block A of a finite group G has an abelian defect group P, then A and its Brauer corresponding…
We prove Breuil's lattice conjecture for higher Hodge-Tate weights in the case of $\mathrm{GL}_2(K)$ where $K$ is an unramified extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$. More precisely, under some genericity conditions, we show that the lattice inside a…
We present several constraints on the absolute Galois groups G_F of fields F containing a primitive pth root of unity, using restrictions on the cohomology of index p normal subgroups from a previous paper by three of the authors. We first…

We extend the Brauer-Siegel theorem to new families of number fields, both in the classical setting of asymptotically bad families and in the more general framework due to Tsfasman and Vl\u{a}du\c{t} of asymptotically exact families. We…
In 2005 Wolfgang Willems put forward a conjecture proposing a lower bound for the sum of squares of the degrees of the irreducible $p$-Brauer characters of a finite group $G$. We prove this conjecture for the prime $p=2$. For this we rely…
We propose a conjectural characterization of when the dynamical Galois group associated to a polynomial is abelian, and we prove our conjecture in several cases, including the stable quadratic case over ${\mathbb Q}$. In the postcritically…
In 2002, M. A. Tsfasman and S. G. Vl\u{a}du\c{t} formulated the generalized Brauer-Siegel conjecture for asymptotically exact families of number fields. In this article, we establish this conjecture for asymptotically good towers and…
We determine the numerical invariants of blocks with defect group D_{2^n}\times C_{2^m}, where D_{2^n} denotes a dihedral group of order 2^n and C_{2^m} denotes a cyclic group of order 2^m. This generalizes Brauer's results for m=0. As a…
The goal of this paper is to obtain lower bounds on the height of an algebraic number in a relative setting, extending previous work of Amoroso and Masser. Specifically, in our first theorem we obtain an effective bound for the height of an…
We study a new object that can be attached to an abelian variety or a complex torus: the invariant Brauer group, as recently defined by Yang Cao. Over the field of complex numbers this is an elementary abelian 2-group with an explicit upper…
We prove an integral R = T theorem for odd two dimensional p-adic representations of the absolute Galois group which are unramified at p, extending results of [CG] to the non-minimal case. We prove, for any p, the existence of Katz modular…
We show that each $p$-block of ${\rm SL}(2,p^n)$ and ${\rm GL}(2,p^n)$ over an arbitrary complete discrete valuation ring is splendidly Rickard equivalent to its Brauer correspondent, hence give new evidence for a refined version of…
Let $p$ be a prime. We prove that a positive solution to Efrat's Elementary Type Conjecture implies a positive solution to the strengthened version of Mina\v{c}--T\^an's Massey Vanishing Conjecture in the case of finitely generated maximal…
For a homogeneous space X of a connected algebraic group G (with connected stabilizers) over a field k of characteristic zero, we construct a canonical complex of Galois modules of length 3 and a canonical isomorphism between an…
Answering a question of P\'alfy and Pyber, we first prove the following extension of the k(GV)-Problem: Let G be a finite group and A\le Aut(G) such that (|G|,|A|)=1. Then the number of conjugacy classes of the semidirect product GA is at…
