Let $K$ be a field of characteristic $0$ and $E/K$ an elliptic curve over $K$. For a finite extension $L/K$ and a prime~$\ell$, we provide Galois-theoretic sufficient conditions on $L/K$ under which…

Let $L/K$ be a finite, totally ramified $p$-extension of complete local fields with residue fields of characteristic $p > 0$, and let $A$ be a $K$-algebra acting on $L$. We define the concept of an $A$-scaffold on $L$, thereby extending and…

A major open problem in current Galois theory is to characterize those profinite groups which appear as absolute Galois groups of various fields. Obtaining detailed knowledge of the structure of quotients and subgroup filtrations of Galois…

We develop a Galois theory for difference ring extensions, inspired by Magid's separable Galois theory for ring extensions and by Janelidze's categorical Galois theory. Our difference Galois theorem states that the category of difference…

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…

Given a p-form defined on the smooth locus of a normal variety, and a resolution of singularities, we study the problem of extending the pull-back of the p-form over the exceptional set of the desingularization. For log canonical pairs and…

We present a generalization of Galois descent to finite modular normal field extension $L/K$, using the Heerma-Galois group $Aut(L[\bar{X}]/K[\bar{X}])$ where $L[\bar{X}]=L[X]/(X^{p^e})$ and $e$ is the exponent of $L$ over $K$.

We consider a complex of tori of length 2 defined over a number field k. We establish here some local and global duality theorems for the (\'etale or Galois) hypercohomology of such a complex. We prove the existence of a Poitou-Tate exact…

An extension B\subset A of algebras over a commutative ring k is an H-extension for an L-bialgebroid H if A is an H-comodule algebra and B is the subalgebra of its coinvariants. It is H-Galois if the canonical map A\otimes_B A\to A\otimes_L…

These are the notes for an undergraduate course at the University of Edinburgh, 2021-2023. Assuming basic knowledge of ring theory, group theory and linear algebra, the notes lay out the theory of field extensions and their Galois groups,…

For important cases of algebraic extensions of valued fields, we develop presentations of the associated K\"ahler differentials of the extensions of their valuation rings. We compute their annihilators as well as the associated Dedekind…

We develop the representation theory for reductive linear differential algebraic groups (LDAGs). In particular, we exhibit an explicit sharp upper bound for orders of derivatives in differential representations of reductive LDAGs, extending…

Let F be a differential field of characteristic zero. In this article, we construct Picard-Vessiot extensions of F whose differential Galois group is isomorphic to the full unipotent subgroup of the upper triangular group defined over the…

For all primes $p$ and all fields, we find a sufficient and necessary condition of the existence of a unipotent Galois extension of degree $p^6$. The main goal of this paper is to describe an explicit construction of such a Galois extension…

We carry out some of Galois's work in the setting of an arbitrary first-order theory T. We replace the ambient algebraically closed field by a large model M of T, replace fields by definably closed subsets of M, assume that T codes finite…

We describe a new construction of families of Galois coverings of the line using basic properties of configuration spaces, covering theory, and the Grauert-Remmert Extension Theorem. Our construction provides an alternative to a previous…

We show that for a large class of finite groups G, the number of Galois extensions E/Q of group G and discriminant $|d_E|\leq y$ grows like a power of $y$ (for some specified exponent). The groups G are the regular Galois groups over Q and…

A point $P$ in projective space is said to be Galois with respect to a hypersurface if the function field extension induced by the projection from $P$ is Galois. We present a hyperplane section theorem for Galois points. Precisely, if $P$…

We present a Galois theory of difference equations designed to measure the differential dependencies among solutions of linear difference equations. With this we are able to reprove Hoelder's Theorem that the Gamma function satisfies no…

We study normal extensions with Galois group Hol($C_8$) that are unramified over a complex quadratic subfield. The Galois group is either the semi-dihedral group or the modular group of order $16$. We present an explicit construction of…
