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…

We completely determine the autotopism group of the (as of now) largest family of commutative semifields found by G\"olo\u{g}lu and K\"olsch. Since this family of semifields generally does not have large nuclei, this process is considerably…

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…

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 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…

We prove that two arithmetically significant extensions of a field F coincide if and only if the Witt ring WF is a group ring Z/n[G]. Furthermore, working modulo squares with Galois groups which are 2-groups, we establish a theorem…

We compare several definitions of the Galois group of a linear difference equation that have arisen in algebra, analysis and model theory and show, that these groups are isomorphic over suitable fields. In addition, we study properties of…

In 2018, Legrand and Paran proved a weaker form of the Inverse Galois Problem for all Hilbertian fields and all finite groups: that is, there exist possibly non-Galois extensions over given Hilbertian base field with given finite group as…

In this paper we investigate algebraic function fields in positive characteristic mainly obtained as double Artin-Schreier extensions of rational function fields with a plane model. The goal is to extend to such extensions large…

In a previous work, the second-named author gave a complete description of the action of automorphisms on the ordinary irreducible characters of the finite symplectic groups. We generalise this in two directions. Firstly, using work of the…

For a generic value of the central charge, we prove the holomorphic factorization of partition functions for free superconformal fields which are defined on a compact Riemann surface without boundary. The partition functions are viewed as…

We give a complete characterization of all Galois subfields of the generalized Giulietti--Korchm\'aros function fields $\mathcal C_n / \fqn$ for $n\ge 5$. Calculating the genera of the corresponding fixed fields, we find new additions to…

The purpose of this paper is to constructively develop a Galois theory on irreducible shifts of finite type (SFTs) and to analyze the automorphism groups of SFTs using this framework. Let $X$ and $Y$ be irreducible SFTs. We demonstrate that…

In this paper we compute the automorphism group of the curves $\mathcal{X}_{a,b,n,s}$ and $\mathcal{Y}_{n,s}$ introduced in Tafazolian et al. in 2016 as new examples of maximal curves which cannot be covered by the Hermitian curve. They…

We study two possible tropical analogues of Weierstrass semigroups on graphs, called rank and functional Weierstrass sets. We prove that on simple graphs, the first is contained in the second. We completely characterize the subsets of N…

Let k be a finite field, a global field or a local non-archimedean field. Let H_1 and H_2 be two split, connected, semisimple algebraic groups defined over k. We prove that if H_1 and H_2 share the same set of maximal k-tori up to…

In this article we construct for any prime power $q$ and odd $n \ge 5$, a new $\mathbb{F}_{q^{2n}}$-maximal curve $\mathcal X_n$. Like the Garcia--G\" uneri--Stichtenoth maximal curves, our curves generalize the Giulietti--Korchm\'aros…

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the asymptotic behavior of automorphism groups of function fields when genus tends to infinity. Motivated by applications in coding and cryptography, we consider the maximum size of abelian…

We introduce the Hermitian-invariant group $\Gamma_f$ of a proper rational map $f$ between the unit ball in complex Euclidean space and a generalized ball in a space of typically higher dimension. We use properties of the groups to define…

We enhance the analogy between field extensions and covering spaces by introducing the concept of splitting covering which correspondences to the splitting field in Galois theory. We define semi-topological Galois groups for Weierstrass…
