In this paper, we give a partial solution to a new isomorphism problem about $2$-$(v,k,k-1)$ designs from disjoint difference families in finite fields and Galois rings. Our results are obtained by carefully calculating and bounding some…
Let $F$ be a number field, $f$ an algebraic automorphic newform on $\mathrm{GL}(2)$ over $F$, $p$ an odd prime does not divide the class number of $F$ and the level of $f$. We prove that $f$ is determined by its $L$-values twisted by Galois…
We study the Galois groups of polynomials arising from a compatible family of representations with big orthogonal monodromy. We show that the Galois groups are usually as large as possible given the constraints imposed on them by a…
We establish an analog of a theorem of Stallings which asserts the homomorphisms between the universal nilpotent quotients induced by a homomorphism $G \to H$ of groups are isomorphisms provided a pair of homological conditions are…
Let $K$ be a totally real field and $\pi$ be a regular algebraic polarized cuspidal automorphic representation of $\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbb A_K)$. Let $\{\rho_{\pi,\lambda}:\mathrm{Gal}_K\to\mathrm{GL}_n(\overline E_\lambda)\}_\lambda$ be the…
Recently, Dor\"oz et al. (2017) proposed a new hard problem, called the finite field isomorphism problem, and constructed a fully homomorphic encryption scheme based on this problem. In this paper, we generalize the problem to the case of…
Given a KHT Shimura variety provided with an action of its unramified Hecke algebra $\mathbb T$, we proved in a previous work, see also the work of Caraiani-Scholze for other PEL Shimura varieties, that its localized cohomology groups at a…
In this article we survey and examine the realizability of $p$-groups as Galois groups over arbitrary fields. In particular we consider various cohomological criteria that lead to necessary and sufficient conditions for the realizability of…
Grothendieck's anabelian conjectures predict that certain classes of varieties over number fields are largely determined by their {\'e}tale fundamental groups. A theorem of Mochizuki shows that for hyperbolic curves over number fields or…
Let $L/K$ be a finite Galois extension of fields with group $\Gamma$. Associated to each Hopf-Galois structure on $L/K$ is a group $G$ of the same order as the Galois group $\Gamma$. The type of the Hopf-Galois structure is by definition…
We remove the assumption "let p be odd or k totally imaginary" from several well-known theorems in Galois cohomology of number fields. For example, we show that the Galois group of the maximal extension of a number field k which is…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of positive characteistic $p$ and let ${\rm SL}(n, k)$ denote the special linear algebraic group of degree $n$ over $k$. In this paper, we describe homomorphisms from ${\rm SL}(2, k)$ to ${\rm SL}(4,…
Let $K$ be a number field and $k\geq 2$ be an integer. Let $(n_1,n_2, \dots, n_k)$ be a vector with entries $n_i\in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 2}$. Given a number field extension $L/K$, we denote by $\widetilde{L}$ the Galois closure of $L$ over $K$.…
This article is the first part of a series of three articles about compatible systems of symplectic Galois representations and applications to the inverse Galois problem. In this first part, we determine the smallest field over which the…
We show that one can find two nonisomorphic curves over a field K that become isomorphic to one another over two finite extensions of K whose degrees over K are coprime to one another. More specifically, let K_0 be an arbitrary prime field…
Recently, two new constructions of $(v,k,k-1)$ disjoint difference families in Galois rings were presented by Davis, Huczynska, and Mullen and Momihara. Both were motivated by a well-known construction of difference families from cyclotomy…
Let Z{t} be the ring of arithmetic power series that converge on the complex open unit disc. A classical result of Harbater asserts that every finite group occurs as a Galois group over the quotient field of Z{t}. We strengthen this by…
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…
We introduce Galois Theory for Hopf-Galois Extensions proving existence of a Galois connection between subalgebras of an H-comodule algebra and generalised quotients of the Hopf algebra H. Moreover, we show that these quotients Q which…
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…
