This article is on the inverse Galois problem in Galois theory of linear iterative differential equations in positive characteristic. We show that it has an affirmative answer for reduced algebraic group schemes over any iterative…
We apply compact group theory to obtain some model-theoretic results about the relativized Lascar Galois group of a strong type.
We introduce a cohomology set for groups defined by algebraic difference equations and show that it classifies torsors under the group action. This allows us to compute all torsors for large classes of groups. We also develop some tools for…
We extend and apply the Galois theory of linear differential equations equipped with the action of an endomorphism. The Galois groups in this Galois theory are difference algebraic groups and we use structure theorems for these groups to…
Let $\operatorname{G}$ be a finite groupoid and $\alpha=(S_g,\alpha_g)_{g\in \operatorname{G}}$ a unital partial action of group-type of $\operatorname{G}$ on a commutative ring $S=\oplus_{y\in\operatorname{G}_0}S_y$. We shall prove a…
Much work has gone into matrix representations of Galois groups, but there is a whole new class of naturally occurring representations that have as yet gone almost unnoticed. In fact, it is well-known in various areas of mathematics that…
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…
Let A be an abelian variety defined over a number field k and F a finite Galois extension of k. Let p be a prime number. Then under certain not-too-stringent conditions on A and F we investigate the explicit Galois structure of the…
Let $G$ be a finite classical group of Lie type of rank $\ell$, defined over a field of characteristic $p>2$. In this work, we classify the irreducible representations of $G$ whose dimensions are bounded by a constant proportional to…
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,…
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…
We examine which representations of the absolute Galois group of a field of finite characteristic with image over a finite field of the same characteristic may be constructed by the Galois group's action on the division points of an…
We consider the action of a parabolic subgroup of the General Linear Group on a metabelian ideal. For those actions, we classify actions with finitely many orbits using methods from representation theory.
The Polya group of a number field K is the subgroup of the class group of K generated by the classes of the products of the maximal ideals with same norm. A Polya field is a number field whose Polya group is trivial. Our purpose is to start…
We introduce a new graph invariant of finite groups that provides a complete characterization of the splitting types of unramified prime ideals in normal number field extensions entirely in terms of the Galois group. In particular, each…
Problems of dense and closed extension of actions of compact transformation groups are solved. The method developed in the paper is applied to problems of extension of equivariant maps and of construction of equivariant compactifications.
A geometric interpretation and generalisation for the Galois action on finite group character tables is sketched. The generalisation is a Galois action on the space Map_G(G^n,\bar{Q})/S_n for each finite G, where G acts by simultaneous…
We use tools from combinatorial group theory in order to study actions of three types on groups acting on a curve, namely the automorphism group of a compact Riemann surface, the mapping class group acting on a surface (which now is allowed…
We study the inverse Galois problem with local conditions. In particular, we ask whether every finite group occurs as the Galois group of a Galois extension of $\mathbb{Q}$ all of whose decomposition groups are cyclic (resp., abelian). This…
The Linearization Theorem for proper Lie groupoids organizes and generalizes several results for classic geometries. Despite the various approaches and recent works on the subject, the problem of understanding invariant linearization…
