We study on finite unramified extensions of global function fields (function fields of one valuable over a finite field). We show two results. One is an extension of Perret's result about the ideal class group problem. Another is a…
Recently, much work has been done to investigate Galois module structure of local field extensions, particularly through the use of Galois scaffolds. Given a totally ramified $p$-extension of local fields $L/K$, a Galois Scaffold gives us a…
Let $k$ be a perfect field of characteristic $p > 2$, and let $K$ be a finite totally ramified extension of $W(k)[\frac{1}{p}]$ of ramification degree $e$. We consider an unramified base ring $R_0$ over $W(k)$ satisfying certain conditions,…
Let $K$ be a finite extension of $\Q_p$, let $L/K$ be a finite abelian Galois extension of odd degree and let $\bo_L$ be the valuation ring of $L$. We define $A_{L/K}$ to be the unique fractional $\bo_L$-ideal with square equal to the…
Let $K$ be a finite extension of the field $\mathbb{Q}_p$ of $p$-adic numbers and $\O$ be its integral ring. The convergent power series with coefficients in $\O$ are studied as dynamical systems on $\O$. A minimal decomposition theorem for…

Let p be an odd prime number, E an elliptic curve over a number field k, and F/k a Galois extension of degree twice a power of p. We study the Z_p-corank rk_p(E/F) of the p-power Selmer group of E over F. We obtain lower bounds for…
Let $p$ be an odd prime and $L/K$ a $p$-adic Lie extension whose Galois group is of the form $\mathbb{Z}_p^{d-1}\rtimes \mathbb{Z}_p$. Under certain assumptions on the ramification of $p$ and the structure of an Iwasawa module associated to…
We extend the theory of Kisin modules and crystalline representations to allow more general coefficient fields and lifts of Frobenius. In particular, for a finite and totally ramified extension $F/\mathbb Q_p$, and an arbitrary finite…
We investigate the supersymmetric extension of k-field models, in which the scalar field is described by generalized dynamics. We illustrate some results with models that support static solutions with the standard kink or the compact…
Let p a prime number, Q_p the field of p-adic numbers, K a finite extension of Q_p, \bar{K} an algebraic closure, and C_p the completion of Q_p, on which the valuation on Q_p extends. In his proof of the Ax-Sen-Tate theorem, Ax shows that…
Let k be a perfect field of positive characteristic, k(t)_{per} the perfect closure of k(t) and A=k[[X_1,...,X_n]]. We show that for any maximal ideal N of A'=k(t)_{per}\otimes_k A, the elements in \hat{A'_N} which are annihilated by the…
We completely calculate the Fitting ideal of the classical $p$-ramified Iwasawa module for any abelian extension $K/k$ of totally real fields, using the shifted Fitting ideals recently developed by the second author. This generalizes former…
Let M be a field of finite type over {\bf Q} and X a variety defined over M. We study when the set {P \in X(K) \mid f^{\circ n} (P) = P for some n \geq 1} is finite for any finite extension fields K of M and for any dominant K-morphisms f :…
We introduce a condition for Hopf-Galois extensions that generalizes the notion of Kummer Galois extension. Namely, an $H$-Galois extension $L/K$ is $H$-Kummer if $L$ can be generated by adjoining to $K$ a finite set $S$ of eigenvectors for…
Let $L$ be finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ with ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_L$. I show that periodic topological cyclic homology of $\mathcal{O}_L$, over the base $\mathbb{E}_{\infty}$-ring $\mathbb{S}_{W(\mathbb{F}_q)}[z]$ carries a…
In this paper we prove the following theorem. Let L/\Q_p be a finite extension with ring of integers O_L and maximal ideal lambda. Theorem 1. Suppose that p >= 5. Suppose also that \rho:G_\Q -> GL_2(O_L) is a continuous representation…
