For any prime power $q$, a polynomial $f(X)\in\F_q[X]$ is ``exceptional'' if it induces bijections of $\F_{q^k}$ for infinitely many $k$; this condition is known to be equivalent to $f(X)$ inducing a bijection of $\F_{q^k}$ for at least one…
We use new over-convergent p-adic exponential power series, inspired by work of Pulita, to build self-dual normal basis generators for the square root of the inverse different of certain abelian weakly ramified extensions of an unramified…
Let $G$ be a finite nilpotent group and $K$ a number field with torsion relatively prime to the order of $G$. By a sequence of central group extensions with cyclic kernel we obtain an upper bound for the minimum number of prime ideals of…
Let $K$ be a number field, and let $G\subset K^\times$ be a finitely generated subgroup. Fix some prime number $\ell$, and consider the set of primes $\mathfrak{p}$ of $K$ satisfying the following property: the reduction of $G$ modulo…
Given a prime $p$, a number field $\K$ and a finite set of places $S$ of $\K$, let $\K_S$ be the maximal pro-$p$ extension of $\K$ unramified outside $S$. Using the Golod-Shafarevich criterion one can often show that $\K_S/\K$ is infinite.…
Let $G$ be a split connected reductive group over a finite extension $F$ of $Q_p$. We determine the extensions between unitary continuous $p$-adic and smooth mod $p$ principal series of $G(F)$ in the generic case. In order to do so, we…
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 $K$.
The $p$-adic logarithm appears in many places in number theory. Hence having a good description of the image of the $p$-adic logarithm could be useful, and in particular, to figure out the image of $1 + \mathfrak{m}_K$, where $K$ is an…
Let $\mathfrak{p}$ be a monic irreducible polynomial in $A:=\mathbb{F}_q[\theta]$, the ring of polynomials in the indeterminate $\theta$ over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, and let $\zeta$ be a root of $\mathfrak{p}$ in an algebraic…
Let K denote a finite extension of Qp. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for an infinite totally wildly ramified extension L/K to be strictly APF in the sense of Fontaine-Wintenberger. Our conditions are phrased in terms of the…
Let $N/K$ be a finite Galois extension of $p$-adic number fields and let $\rho^\mathrm{nr} : G_K \to \mathrm{Gl}_r(\mathbb Z_p)$ be an $r$-dimensional unramified representation of the absolute Galois group $G_K$ which is the restriction of…
Suppose that (K, $\nu$) is a valued field, f (z) $\in$ K[z] is a unitary and irreducible polynomial and (L, $\omega$) is an extension of valued fields, where L = K[z]/(f (z)). Further suppose that A is a local domain with quotient field K…
This is an introduction to the author theory of cyclic p-extensions of an absolutely unramified complete discrete valuation field K with arbitrary residue field of characteristic p. In this theory a homomorphism is constructed from the…
Let $K$ be a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$, and let $\mathfrak{m}_K$ be its maximal ideal. The image of the group of principal units $1+\mathfrak{m}_K$ under $p$-adic logarithm plays important role in several areas of number theory. In…
We complete the results of a previous article. Let $G$ be a split connected reductive group over a finite extension $F$ of $\mathbb{Q}_p$. When $F=\mathbb{Q}_p$, we determine the extensions between unitary continuous $p$-adic and smooth mod…
Let $f$ be a newform of even weight $2\kappa$ for $D^\times$, where $D$ is a possibly split indefinite quaternion algebra over $\mathbb{Q}$. Let $K$ be a quadratic imaginary field splitting $D$ and $p$ an odd prime split in $K$. We extend…
Let $p$ be an odd prime number and $k_p$ be the maximal pro-$p$ extension unramified outside $p$ of an imaginary quadratic field $k$. Let $\widetilde{k}$ be the maximal multiple $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$ extension over $k$ and $M_{\widetilde{k}}$ be…
For a prime number $\ell$ and an extension of number fields $K/F$, we prove new lower bounds on the $\ell$-rank of the ideal class group of $K$ based on prime ramification in $K/F$. Unlike related results from the literature, our bound is…
Suppose G is a semi-direct product of the form Z/p^n \rtimes Z/m where p is prime and m is relatively prime to p. Suppose K is a local field of characteristic p > 0. The main result states necessary and sufficient conditions on the…
Let $k$ be a field, $K/k$ finitely generated and $L/K$ a finite, separable extension. We show that the existence of a $k$-valuation on $L$ which ramifies in $L/K$ implies the existence of a normal model $X$ of $K$ and a prime divisor $D$ on…
