For a number field $F$ and an odd prime number $p,$ let $\tilde{F}$ be the compositum of all $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extensions of $F$ and $\tilde{\Lambda}$ the associated Iwasawa algebra. Let $G_{S}(\tilde{F})$ be the Galois group over $\tilde{F}$…
We describe the classification of ranked definably quasi-Frobenius groups of odd type : dihedral configurations are isomorphic to PGL(2, K) for K an algebraically closed field of characteristic other than two; Frobenius groups are spilt and…
Given a field K, one may ask which finite groups are Galois groups of field extensions L/K such that L is a maximal subfield of a division algebra with center K. This connection between inverse Galois theory and division algebras was first…
Let p be an odd prime, let S be a finite set of primes q congruent to 1 mod p but not mod p^2 and let G_S be the Galois group of the maximal p-extension of Q un-ramified outside of S. If r is a continuous homomorphism of G_S into GL_2(Z_p)…
We study the unflavored Schur indices in the $\mathcal{N}=4$ super-Yang-Mills theory for the $B_n,C_n,D_n, G_2$ gauge groups. We explore two methods, namely the character expansion method and the Fermi gas method, to efficiently compute the…
Profinite groups with a cyclotomic $p$-orientation are introduced and studied. The special interest in this class of groups arises from the fact that any absolute Galois group $G_{K}$ of a field $K$ is indeed a profinite group with a…
Let $G$ be a finite $p$-group of order $p^n$. It is known that $|\mathcal{M}(G)|=p^{\f{1}{2}n(n-1)-t(G)}$ and $t(G)\geq 0$. The structure of $G$ characterized when $t(G)\leq 4$ in \cite{be,el,ni,sa,zh}. The structure description of $G$ is…
We present an elementary proof that the Schur polynomial corresponding to an increasing sequence of exponents (c_0,..., c_{n-1}) with c_0 = 0 is irreducible over every field of characteristic p whenever the numbers d_i = c_{i+1} - c_i are…
Each finite $p$-perfect group $G$ ($p$ a prime) has a universal central $p$-extension. For a perfect group these central extensions come from its {\sl Schur multiplier}. Serre gave a Stiefel-Whitney class approach to analyzing spin covers…
Given a prime number l greater than or equal to 5, we construct an infinite family of three-dimensional abelian varieties over Q such that, for any A/Q in the family, the Galois representation \rho_{A, l}: Gal_Q -> GSp(6, l) attached to the…
Let $F$ be any field. We give a short and elementary proof that any finite subgroup $G$ of $PGL(2,F)$ occurs as a Galois group over the function field $F(x)$. We also develop a theory of descent to subfields of $F$. This enables us to…
Generalizing results of Morishita and Vogel, an explicit description of the triple Massey product for the Galois group $G_S(2)$ of the maximal 2-extension of $\mathbb{Q}$ unramified outside a finite set of prime numbers $S$ containing 2 is…
Let $p$ be a prime, $k$ a finite extension of $\mathbf{F}_p$ of cardinal $q$, $l$ a finite extension of $k$ of group $\Sigma=\mathrm{Gal}(l|k)$, and $T$ a subgroup of $l^\times$. Using the method of "little groups", we classify irreducible…
We prove the existence of certain rationally rigid triples in F_4(p) for good primes p (i.e., p>3), thereby showing that these groups occur as regular Galois groups over Q(t) and so also over Q. We show that these triples give rise to rigid…
Let $q$ be a prime with $q \equiv 7 \mod 8$, and let $K=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-q})$. Then $2$ splits in $K$, and we write $\mathfrak{p}$ for either of the primes $K$ above $2$. Let $K_\infty$ be the unique $\mathbb{Z}_2$-extension of $K$…
For certain algebraic Hecke characters chi of an imaginary quadratic field F we define an Eisenstein ideal in a p-adic Hecke algebra acting on cuspidal automorphic forms of GL_2/F. By finding congruences between Eisenstein cohomology…
In [Li and Chen, A new characterization of the simple group A_1(p^n), Sib. Math. J., 2012], it is proved that the simple group A_1(p^n) is uniquely determined by the set of orders of its maximal abelian subgroups. Also in [Momen and…
Let $p\geq 5$ be a prime. We construct modular Galois representations for which the $\mathbb{Z}_p$-corank of the $p$-primary Selmer group (i.e., $\lambda$-invariant) over the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension is large. More precisely, for…
Let $p$ be a prime. The right-angled Artin pro-$p$ group $G_{\Gamma}$ associated to a fnite simplicial graph $\Gamma$ is the pro-$p$ completion of the right-angled Artin group associated to $\Gamma$. We prove that the following assertions…
Let $p$ be an irregular prime. Let $K=\Q(\zeta)$ be the $p$-cyclotomic field. From Kummer and class field theory, there exist Galois extensions $S/\Q$ of degree $p(p-1)$ such that $S/K$ is a cyclic unramified extension of degree $[S:K]=p$.…
