Let $G$ be a group and $R,S,T$ its normal subgroups. There is a natural extension of the concept of commutator subgroup for the case of three subgroups $\|R,S,T\|$ as well as the natural extension of the symmetric product $\|\bf r,\bf s,\bf…

Let K/F be a finite Galois extension of global fields with Galois group G and let M be a 1-motive over F. We discuss the kernel and cokernel of the restriction map Sha^{i}(F,M) --> Sha^{i}(K,M)^{G} for i=1 and 2, independently of any…

For any imaginary quadratic field $K$, the Galois group $G_K$ of its maximal unramified pro-$3$-extension is a Schur $\sigma$-group. If this has Zassenhaus type $(3,3)$, there are 13 possibilities for the isomorphism class of the finite…

It is proved that the profinite completion of the mapping class group Mod (g,n) of a surface of genus g with n boundary components is isomorphic to such of the arithmetic group GL(6g-6+2n, Z). We establish a relation between the normal…

Let $k$ be any field, $G$ be a finite group. Let $G$ act on the rational function field $k(x_g:g\in G)$ by $k$-automorphisms defined by $h\cdot x_g=x_{hg}$ for any $g,h\in G$. Denote by $k(G)=k(x_g:g\in G)^G$ the fixed field. Noether's…

Let $\mathbb K$ be a field of characteristic zero. We prove that its motivic cohomology in degree $m-1$ and weight $m$ is rationally isomorphic to the cohomology of the polylogarithmic complex. This gives a partial extension of A. Suslin…

Let k be a global field of characteristic not 2. We prove a local-global principle for the existence of self-dual normal bases, and more generally for the isomorphism of G-trace forms, of G-Galois algebras over k.

We present a simple proof of the fundamental theorem of Galois theory, which establishes a correspondence between the intermediate fields of a finite Galois extension and the subgroups of its Galois group. The proof is based on the…

In this paper we study extension problems for torsors in positive characteristic. Let $F$ be a field of characteristic $p>0$ and $U/F$ be a unipotent algebraic group. As our first main result, we prove that every $U$-torsor defined over the…

To generalize the notion of Galois closure for separable field extensions, we devise a notion of $G$-closure for algebras of commutative rings $R\to A$, where $A$ is locally free of rank $n$ as an $R$-module and $G$ is a subgroup of…

Let G be a finite group and let F be a field of characteristic zero. In this paper we construct a generic G-crossed product over F using generic graded matrices. The center of this generic G-crossed product, denoted by F(G), is then the…

In 2018, Legrand and Paran proved a weaker form of the Inverse Galois Problem for all Hilbertian fields and all finite groups: that is, there exist possibly non-Galois extensions over given Hilbertian base field with given finite group as…

We study certain aspects of the algebraic K-theory of Hopf-Galois extensions. We show that the Cartan map from K-theory to G-theory of such an extension is a rational isomorphism, provided the ring of coinvariants is regular, the Hopf…
