In this note we give generalizations and prove 'minimalistic' refinements of the t-birational Section Conjecture (t-BSC), cf. [Be], by doing both: First, by extending the class of base fields over which the t-BSC holds, and second, by…

Let $k$ be a fixed finite geometric extension of the rational function field $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$. Let $F/k$ be a finite abelian extension such that there is an $\Fq$-rational place $\infty$ in $k$ which splits in $F/k$ and let $\mathcal{O}_F$…

We give counterexamples for the modification on Malle's Conjecture given by T\"urkelli. T\"urkelli's modification on Malle's conjecture is inspired by an analogue of Malle's conjecture over a function field. As a consequence, our…

We prove that a triangulated category which is the underlying category of a stable derivator has a filtered enhancement, providing an affirmative answer to a conjecture in [3].

Let $p$ be a prime, $q=p^n$, and $D \subset \mathbb{F}_q^*$. A celebrated result of McConnel states that if $D$ is a proper subgroup of $\mathbb{F}_q^*$, and $f:\mathbb{F}_q \to \mathbb{F}_q$ is a function such that $(f(x)-f(y))/(x-y) \in…

I show that a conjecture of Joshi-Rajan on primes of Hodge-Witt reduction and in particular a conjecture of Jean-Pierre Serre on primes of good, ordinary reduction for an abelian variety over a number field follows from a certain conjecture…

Extension conjecture states that if a simple module over an artin algebra has nonzero first self-extension group then it has nonzero i-th self-extension group for infinitely many positive integers i. It is shown by recollement of…

Based on results obtained in a companion paper [MSRI preprint 1997-002], we construct groups of special $S$--units for function fields of characteristic $p>0$, and show that they satisfy Gras--type Conjectures. We use these results in order…

In a previous paper the second author developed a new approach to the abelian p-adic Stark Conjecture at s=1 and stated some related conjectures. This paper develops and applies techniques using p-adic measures and continued fractions to…

The ruled residue theorem characterises residue field extensions for valuations on a rational function field. Under the assumption that the characteristic of the residue field is different from $2$ this theorem is extended here to function…

In this paper we construct, using Stark elements of Rubin [Ann. Inst. Fourier (Grenoble) 46 (1996), no. 1, 33-62], Kolyvagin systems for certain modified Selmer structures (that are adjusted to have core rank one in the sense of [Mem. Amer.…

We prove a new Hilbertianity criterion for fields in towers whose steps are Galois with Galois group either abelian or a product of finite simple groups. We then apply this criterion to fields arising from Galois representations. In…

We prove that the Rubik's cube group can be realized as a Galois group over the rationals.

In this announcement we generalize the Markov-Kakutani fixed point theorem for abelian semi-groups of affine transformations extending it on some class of non-commutative semi-groups. As an interesting example we apply it obtaining a…

We define invariants $\operatorname{inv}_1,\dots,\operatorname{inv}_m$ of Galois extensions of number fields with a fixed Galois group. Then, we propose a heuristic in the spirit of Malle's conjecture which asymptotically predicts the…

Let $F$ be a totally real field and $K$ a finite abelian CM extension of $F$. Using class field theory, we show that our previous result giving a strong form of the Brumer-Stark conjecture implies the minus part of the equivariant Tamagawa…

The Ruled Residue Theorem asserts that given a ruled extension $(K|k,v)$ of valued fields, the residue field extension is also ruled. In this paper we analyse the failure of this theorem when we set $K$ to be algebraic function fields of…

We give a detailed proof of Kolchin's results on differential Galois groups of strongly normal extensions, in the case where the field of constants is not necessarily algebraically closed. We closely follow former works due to Pillay and…

We state the Brumer-Stark conjecture and motivate it from two perspectives. Stark's perspective arose in his attempts to generalize the classical Dirichlet class number formula for the leading term of the Dedekind zeta function at $s=1$…

We show that if an open cover of a finite dimensional space is equivariant with respect to some finite group action on the space then there is an equivariant refinement of bounded dimension. This will generalize some constructions of…
