Given a prime number $l$ and a finite set of integers $S=\{a_1,...,a_m\}$ we find out the exact degree of the extension $\mathbb{Q}(a_1^{\frac{1}{l}},...,a_m^{\frac{1}{l}})/\mathbb{Q}$. We give two different ways to compute this degree. The…

We determine the finite groups whose real irreducible representations have different degrees.

We construct examples of non-schematic algebraic spaces that become schemes after finite ground field extensions.

We introduce a notion of refinements in the context of patching, in order to obtain new results about local-global principles and field invariants in the context of quadratic forms and central simple algebras. The fields we consider are…

For each real quadratic field we constructively show the existence of infinitely many exceptional quartic number fields containing that quadratic field. On the other hand, another infinite collection of quartic exceptional fields without…

After giving an overview of the existing theory regarding the periods of sequences defined by linear recurrences over finite fields, we give explicit descriptions of the sets of periods that arise if one considers all sequences over…

Let $D_n(x;a)$ and $E_n(x;a)\in\mathbb F_q[x]$ be Dickson polynomials of first and second kind respectively, where $\mathbb F_q$ is a finite field with $q$ elements. In this article we show explicitly the irreducible factors these…

This PhD deals with the notion of pseudo algebraically closed (PAC) extensions of fields. It develops a group-theoretic machinery, based on a generalization of embedding problems, to study these extensions. Perhaps the main result is that…

Abstrct: In this note, by considering fractionally linear functions over a finite field and consequently developing an abstract sequence, we study some of its properties.

We resolve the strong Elementary Equivalence versus Isomorphism Problem for finitely generated fields. That is, we show that for every field in this class there is a first-order sentence which characterizes this field within the class up to…

Let $\mathbb F_q$ be the finite field with $q$ elements, $f, g\in \mathbb F_q[x]$ be polynomials of degree at least one. This paper deals with the asymptotic growth of certain arithmetic functions associated to the factorization of the…

We give a survey of recent results related to the problem of characterizing finite-dimensional division algebras by the set of isomorphism classes of their maximal subfields. We also discuss various generalizations of this problem and some…

For a totally positive definite quadratic form over the ring of integers of a totally real number field $K$, we show that there are only finitely many totally real field extensions of $K$ of a fixed degree over which the form is universal…

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…

We consider the expansion of the real field by the group of rational points of an elliptic curve over the rational numbers. We prove a completeness result, followed by a quantifier elimination result. Moreover we show that open sets…

We show that every Dedekind domain $R$ lying between the polynomial rings $\mathbb Z[X]$ and $\mathbb Q[X]$ with the property that its residue fields of prime characteristic are finite fields is equal to a generalized ring of integer-valued…

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…

A Lie superalgebra endowed with a supersymmetric, even, non-degenerate, invariant bilinear form is called a quadratic Lie superalgebra. In this paper we give inductive descriptions of quadratic Lie superalgebras in terms of generalized…

While the twin prime conjecture is still famously open, it holds true in the setting of finite fields: There are infinitely many pairs of monic irreducible polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_q$ that differ by a fixed constant, for each $q \geq…

In positive characteristic, nearly all Picard-Vessiot extensions are inseparable over some intermediate iterative differential extensions. In the Galois correspondence, these intermediate fields correspond to nonreduced subgroup schemes of…
