The Stickelberger elements attached to an abelian extension of number fields conjecturally participate, under certain conditions, in annihilator relations involving higher algebraic K-groups. In [Victor P. Snaith, Stark's conjecture and new…
To each Galois extension $L/K$ of number fields with Galois group $G$ and each integer $r \leq 0$ one can associate Stickelberger elements in the centre of the rational group ring $\mathbb{Q}[G]$ in terms of values of Artin $L$-series at…
We propose a candidate, which we call the fractional Galois ideal after Snaith's fractional ideal, for replacing the classical Stickelberger ideal associated to an abelian extension of number fields. The Stickelberger ideal can be seen as…
Let $K/k$ be a finite abelian CM-extension and $T$ a suitable finite set of finite primes of $k$. In this paper, we determine the Fitting ideal of the minus component of the $T$-ray class group of $K$, except for the $2$-component, assuming…
For an abelian number field K containing a primitive p-th root of unity (p an odd prime) and satisfying certain technical conditions, we parametrize the Z_p[G(K/Q)]-annihilators of the "minus" part A_K^- of the p-class group by means of…
Fix a relative quadratic extension E/F of totally real number rields and let G denote the Galois group of order 2. Let S be a finite set of primes of F containing the infinite primes and all those which ramify in E, let S_E denote the…
Fix a Galois extension E/F of totally real number fields such that the Galois group G has exponent 2. Let S be a finite set of primes of F containing the infinite primes and all those which ramify in E, let S_E denote the primes of E lying…
We study the annihilator of the cokernel of a map of free Z/2-graded modules over a Z/2-graded skew-commutative algebra in characteristic 0 and define analogues of its Fitting ideals. We show that in the ``generic'' case the annihilator is…
Let $K$ be a global function field and fix a place $\infty$ of $K$. Let $L/K$ be a finite real abelian extension, i.e. a finite, abelian extension such that $\infty$ splits completely in $L$. Then we define a group of elliptic units $C_L$…
We consider a field $F$ and positive integers $n$, $m$, such that $m$ is not divisible by $\mathrm{Char}(F)$ and is prime to $n!$. The absolute Galois group $G_F$ acts on the group $\mathbb{U}_n(\mathbb{Z}/m)$ of all $(n+1)\times(n+1)$…
The K-theory of a functor may be viewed as a relative version of the K-theory of a ring. In the case of a Galois extension of a number field F/L with rings of integers A/B respectively, this K-theory of the "norm functor" is an extension of…
Let L/k be a finite Galois extension of number fields with Galois group G. For every odd prime p satisfying certain mild technical hypotheses, we use values of Artin L-functions to construct an element in the centre of the group ring…
We study certain correspondences over Drinfeld modular varieties given by sums of Hecke correspondences. We propose generalizations of Stickelberger's theorem for higher dimensions. Using this result, we study anihilators for some cusp…
Let $L/K$ be a finite Galois CM-extension of number fields with Galois group $G$. In an earlier paper, the author has defined a module $SKu(L/K)$ over the center of the group ring $\mathbb Z[G]$ which coincides with the Sinnott-Kurihara…
Let $L/K$ be a Galois extension of number fields with Galois group $G$. We discuss a new method to obtain elements in $\mathbb{Z}[G]$ which annihilate the class group of $L$. Using this method, we obtain annihilators of class groups of…
We generalize some results of Greither and Popescu to a geometric Galois cover $X\rightarrow Y$ which appears naturally for example in extensions generated by $\mathfrak{p}^n$-torsion points of a rank 1 normalized Drinfeld module (i.e. in…
If $E$ is a graph and $K$ is a field, we consider an ideal $I$ of the Leavitt path algebra $L_K(E)$ of $E$ over $K$. We describe the admissible pair corresponding to the smallest graded ideal which contains $I$ where the grading in question…
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 $k$ be a real abelian number field and $p$ an odd prime not dividing $[k:\mathbb{Q}]$. For a natural number $d$, let $E_d$ denote the group of units of $k$ congruent to $1$ modulo $d$, $C_d$ the subgroup of $d$-circular units of $E_d$,…
We introduce a new ideal {\mathfrak D} of the p-adic Galois group-ring associated to a real abelian field and a related ideal {\mathfrak J} for imaginary abelian fields. Both result from an equivariant, Kummer-type pairing applied to Stark…
