We show that the existence of rational points on smooth varieties over a field can be detected using homotopy fixed points of etale topological types under the Galois action. As our main example we show that the surjectivity statement in…

Galois categories can be viewed as the combinatorial analog of Tannakian categories. We introduce the notion of pre-Galois category, which can be viewed as the combinatorial analog of pre-Tannakian categories. Given an oligomorphic group…

In this paper, we prove that the group of homotopy automorphisms of the profinite completion of the operad of little $2$-disks is isomorphic to the profinite Grothendieck-Teichm\"uller group. In particular, the absolute Galois group of…

This note presents Galois theory for finite fields. It was written as a handout for the MAT401 course ``Polynomial equations and fields'' taught at the University of Toronto in Spring 2026. We use without proofs some basic properties of…

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…

Finite \'etale covers of a connected scheme $X$ are parametrised by the \'etale fundamental group via the monodromy correspondence. This was generalised to an exodromy correspondence for constructible sheaves, first in the topological…

It is well known that the Galois group of an extension puts constraints on the structure of the relative ideal class groups. Using only basic parts of the theory of group representations, we give a unified approach to such results.

Semi-topological Galois theory associates a canonical finite splitting covering to a monic Weierstrass polynomial. The inverse limit of the corresponding deck groups defines the absolute semi-topological Galois group, $\PiST(X,x)$. This…

In this paper we investigate an infinitely categorical analogue of the theory of Grothendieck topoi. In particular, we define infinity topoi and prove an analogue of Giraud's theorem, expressing the equivalence of ``intrinsic'' and…

Generalized \'etale homotopy pro-groups $\pi_1^{\ets}(\mc{C}, x)$ associated to pointed connected small Grothendieck sites $(\mc{C}, x)$ are defined and their relationship to Galois theory and the theory of pointed torsors for discrete…

We generalize the notions of composition series and composition factors for profinite groups, and prove a profinite version of the Jordan-Holder Theorem. We apply this to prove a Galois Theorem for infinite prosolvable extensions. In…

We study the relationship between the local and global Galois theory of function fields over a complete discretely valued field. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for local separable extensions to descend to global extensions, and…

This paper investigates the behavior of $n$-precluster tilting subcategories under the push-down functor in the context of Galois coverings of locally bounded categories. Building on higher Auslander-Reiten theory and covering techniques,…

The main problem this thesis deals with is the characterization of profinite groups which are realizable as absolute Galois groups of fields: this is currently one of the major problems in Galois theory. Usually one reduces the problem to…

We construct Galois theory for sublattices of certain complete modular lattices and their automorphism groups. A well-known description of the intermediate subgroups of the general linear group over an Artinian ring containing the group of…

This paper formulates a group condition which is enjoyed by absolute Galois groups, and which guarantees that profinite groups satisfying the condition can be approximated as an inverse limit of groups which are profinite analogues of…

Let G be a group, and H a G-group defined by an imbedding map $G\rightarrow H$; in [12] we have defined a topology on a subset of normal subgroups of $H$, the so-called prime ideals. In this work, we generalize this topology to other…

Given a smooth projective curve $X$ of genus at least 2 over a number field $k$, Grothendieck's Section Conjecture predicts that the canonical projection from the \'etale fundamental group of $X$ onto the absolute Galois group of $k$ has a…

The main aim of the present work is to arrive at a mathematical theory close to the historically original conception of generalized functions, i.e. set theoretical functions defined on, and with values in, a suitable ring of scalars and…

We establish a criterion for deciding whether a class of structures is the class of models of a geometric theory inside Grothendieck toposes; then we specialize this result to obtain a characterization of the infinitary first-order theories…
