We present several constraints on the absolute Galois groups G_F of fields F containing a primitive pth root of unity, using restrictions on the cohomology of index p normal subgroups from a previous paper by three of the authors. We first…

We show that for a subset $A$ of the cyclic group of prime order $p>3$, if the sumset $A+A-2A$ is not the whole group, then $|A|\le \frac27\,p$. Besides combinatorial arguments, we utilize a general technique involving linear programming.

In this paper we prove the validity of Gibbons' conjecture for the quasilinear elliptic equation $ -\Delta_p u = f(u) $ on $\mathbb{R}^N.$ The result holds true for $(2N+2)/(N+2) < p < 2$ and for a very general class of nonlinearity $f$.

For a quadratic field K, we investigate continuous mod p representations of the absolute Galois groups of K that are unramified away from p and infinity. We prove that for certain pairs (K,p), there are no such irreducible representations.…

A cover of normal varieties is exceptional over a finite field if the map on points over infinitely many extensions of the field is one-one. A cover over a number field is exceptional if it is exceptional over infinitely many residue class…

For any finite group $G$ and any prime $p$ one can ask which ordinary irreducible representations remain irreducible in characteristic $p$, or more generally, which representations remain homogeneous in characteristic $p$. In this paper we…

For a fixed finite solvable group $G$ and number field $K$, we prove an upper bound for the number of $G$-extensions $L/K$ with restricted local behavior (at infinitely many places) and ${\rm inv}(L/K)<X$ for a general invariant $"{\rm…

Let p>3 be a prime, f a positive integer and Q_{p^f} the unramified extension of Q_p of degree f. After Breuil and Paskunas, to a generic semi-simple continue modulo p representation of the absolute Galois group of Q_{p^f}, we can associate…

In this paper, we utilize our previous results on mod p monodromy of cyclic coverings of the projective line to realize a large series of groups of the form PSL(n, q) and PSU(n, q) as Galois groups over Q. We achieve for the first time a…

We define totally-isotropic polynomials of alternating matrix spaces over finite fields, by analogy with independence polynomials of graphs. Our main result shows that totally-isotropic polynomials of graphical alternating matrix spaces…

We formulate a tropical analogue of Grothendieck's section conjecture: that for every stable graph G of genus g>2, and every field k, the generic curve with reduction type G over k satisfies the section conjecture. We prove many cases of…

Let $p$ be an odd prime and $k$ be an algebraically closed field with characteristic $p$. Booher and Cais showed that the $a$-number of a $\mathbb Z/p \mathbb Z$-Galois cover of curves $\phi: Y \to X$ must be greater than a lower bound…

We present several constraints on the absolute Galois groups G_F of fields F containing a primitive pth root of unity, using restrictions on the cohomology of index p normal subgroups from a previous paper by three of the authors. We first…

We proved a truncated second main theorem of level one with explicit exceptional sets for analytic maps into $\mathbb P^2$ intersecting the coordinate lines with sufficiently high multiplicities. As applications, we studied some cases of…

Let $W$ be a right-angled Coxeter group corresponding to a finite non-discrete graph $\mathcal{G}$ with at least $3$ vertices. Our main theorem says that $\mathcal{G}^c$ is connected if and only if for any infinite index quasiconvex…

The finite subgroups of ${\rm PGL}_2(\mathbb{C})$ are shown to be the only finite groups $G$ with this property: for some integer $r_0$ (depending on $G$), all Galois covers $X\rightarrow \mathbb{P}^1_{\mathbb{C}}$ of group $G$ can be…

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…

In this paper we show how to construct, for most p >= 5, two types of surjective representations \rho:G_Q=Gal(\bar{Q}/Q) -> GL_2(Z_p) that are ramified at an infinite number of primes. The image of inertia at almost all of these primes will…

We show that if the automorphism group of a projective variety is torsion, then it is finite. Motivated by Lang's conjecture on rational points of hyperbolic varieties, we use this to prove that a projective variety with only finitely many…

We prove finite generation of the algebras of invariants for a class of linear actions of suitable non-reductive groups on projective and affine varieties, and give a geometric construction for their GIT quotients.
