$v$-adic expansions of non-$p$th powers in global fields
Let $k$ be a global function field of positive characteristic $p$ (e.g. $k = \mathbb{F}_p[t]$). Let $x \in k$ be non-zero and assume that $x$ is not a $p$th power.
For each place $v$ of $k$, we can ...

Integral Hasse norm theorem
Let $L/K$ be a cyclic number field extension. The Hasse Norm theorem states that an element $x$ in $K$ is a norm from $L$ iff it's locally a norm, i.e. at each place $v$, $x$ is a norm from $L_v$ to $...

Abelian extensions of number fields generated by torsion points of elliptic curve (as analogy to Lubin-Tate theory)
According to a remark from wikipedia the motivation of Lubin-Tate theory arose from the analogy to the way in which elliptic curves $E/K$ over a number field $K$ with extra endomorphisms (ie those ...

On the complexity of global fields isomorphism
Let $L$ and $K$ be isomorphic global fields (i.e. either function fields of curves over a finite field, or number fields). What is the complexity of finding an isomorphism between them? Is there a ...

Constructing a cyclic extension $L$ with given local behavior of a global field $K$ such that $L$ is normal over a subfield $F$ of $K$
Let $F$ be a global field without real places
(that is, a function field or a totally imaginary number field).
Let $K/F$ be a cyclic extension of degree $n$.
Let $S$ be a ${\rm Gal}(K/F)$-invariant ...

The second Tate-Shafarevich group of a permutation module is trivial
Suppose I have a global field $K$ and a finite Galois extension $L/K$ of Galois group $G$. It is often written without proofs (it seems that this is a very common statement) that for every $G$-module $...

Does every (ordinary) elliptic curve over a quite large prime field $\mathbb{F}_{p}$ have a lift to the function field with huge Mordell-Weil rank?
Ulmer (and then other authors) showed existence of elliptic curves $E$ over the function field $\mathbb{F}_{p}(t)$ (where $p$ is a prime) with huge Mordell-Weil ranks (i.e., depending on $p$). The ...

Can global fields be defined as certain topological fields like local fields?
It's known that local fields can be defined as a non-discrete, Hausdorff (equivalently non-indiscrete), locally compact, topological field, which is the same as non-trivial (i.e. neither discrete nor ...

Analog of a theorem on equidistribution in adeles
Is there a reference anywhere for the analog of Theorem 6 in chapter XV of Langs Algebraic Number Theory for global function fields?
In my research I have been using this theorem to prove density ...

Boundary divisor of an equivariant compactification of a non-trivial twist of $\mathbb{G}_a^n$
Let $K$ be a non-perfect field of positive characteristic. Then there exist non-trivial forms of $\mathbb{G}_a^n$ which split over finite purely inseparable extensions of $K$, i.e., algebraic groups $...

Basic question on the Langlands conjectures for $GL_n$ over global field of positive characteristic
My field is far from the Langlands conjectures. I am just trying to understand some basic ideas.
At the moment I am interested in a global field $K$ of positive characteristic and the group $G=GL_n$. ...

Reference request. Finiteness of the Selmer group
Let $K$ be a global field (ie either a number field or the function field of a curve over a finite field). Let $A,B$ be abelian varieties over $K$ and let $\phi:A\to B$ be an isogeny. Associated with $...

What is the relationship between ramification in central simple algebras and in fields?
Suppose $K$ is the field of fractions of a Dedekind domain $R$, and let $L$ be a finite extension of $K$. There is a notion of ramification of primes of $K$ in $L$, which describes how $\mathfrak p \...

Computer algebra programs that can solve polynomial systems on algebraically closed fields besides MAGMA
I was wondering which computer algebra programs out there can solve polynomial systems on the algebraic closure of $\mathbb{Q}$ analytically and efficiently.
So far, I only found MAGMA with its ...
