Massless Elementary Particles in a Quantum Theory over a Galois Field

We consider massless elementary particles in a quantum theory based on a Galois field (GFQT). We previously showed that the theory has a new symmetry between particles and antiparticles, which has no analogue in the standard approach. We now prove that the symmetry is compatible with all operators describing massless particles. Consequently, massless elementary particles can have only half-integer spin (in conventional units), and the existence of massless neutral elementary particles is incompatible with the spin–statistics theorem. In particular, this implies that the photon and the graviton in the GFQT can only be composite particles.     

Galois Reconstruction of Finite Quantum Groups

Let be a (small) category and let F:  →  alg_f be a functor, where alg_f is the category of finite-dimensional measured algebras over a field k (or Frobenius algebras). We construct a universal Hopf algebra A_aut(F) such that F factorizes through a functor :  →  coalg_f(A_aut(F)), where coalg_f(A_aut(F)) is the category of finite-dimensional measured A_aut(F)-comodule algebras. This general reconstruction result allows us to recapture a finite-dimensional Hopf algebra A from the category coalg_f(A) and the forgetful functor ω: coalg_f(A) →  alg_f: we have A  A_aut(ω). Our universal construction is also done in a C*-algebra framework, and we get compact quantum groups in the sense of Woronowicz.

Des extensions plus petites que leurs groupes de Galois

In this article we construct some Galois extensions L∕K with finite Galois groups and such that |Gal(L∕K)|>[L:K]. Using an analog of the Noether method, we explain how to obtain, with a fixed center, such a Galois curiosity with a Galois group as large as we want.

Résumé : Dans cet article, nous construisons une extension galoisienne L∕K à groupe de Galois fini et telle que |Gal(L∕K)|>[L:K]. En utilisant un analogue non commutatif de la méthode de Noether, nous expliquons ensuite comment, à centre fixé, l’on peut construire une telle curiosité galoisienne avec un groupe aussi gros que l’on veut.

A Note on Regular Crossed Products and Galois Representations

A crossed product representing an associative finite dimensional central simple algebra over a field is called regular if all values of the corresponding cocycle are roots of unity. Under a certain assumption such a crossed product is shown to allow the construction of Galois representations. The case of number fields is investigated more closely and several examples are discussed.     

The Galois closure of Drinfeld modular towers

In this article we study Drinfeld modular curves X₀(pn) associated to congruence subgroups Γ₀(pn) of GL(2,Fq[T]) where p is a prime of Fq[T]. For n>r>0 we compute the extension degrees and investigate the structure of the Galois closures of the covers X₀(pn)→X₀(pr) and some of their variations. The results have some immediate implications for the Galois closures of two well-known optimal wild towers of function fields over finite fields introduced by Garcia and Stichtenoth, for which the modular interpretation was given by Elkies.     

Galois cohomology in degree 3 of function fields of curves over number fields

Let k be a field of characteristic not equal to 2. For n≥1, let denote the nth Galois Cohomology group. The classical Tate's lemma asserts that if k is a number field then given finitely many elements , there exist such that α_i=(a)∪(b_i), where for any λ∈k∗, (λ) denotes the image of k∗ in . In this paper we prove a higher dimensional analogue of the Tate's lemma.     

Harmonic Analysis on a Galois Field and Its Subfields

Complex functions χ(m) where m belongs to a Galois field GF(p ^ℓ ), are considered. Fourier transforms, displacements in the GF(p ^ℓ )×GF(p ^ℓ ) phase space and symplectic transforms of these functions are studied. It is shown that the formalism inherits many features from the theory of Galois fields. For example, Frobenius transformations and Galois groups are introduced in the present context. The relationship between harmonic analysis on GF(p ^ℓ ) and harmonic analysis on its subfields, is studied.

The Generalized Center Galois Extensions of Rings

Let B be a ring with 1, C the center of B, G a finite automorphism group of B, and I_i = {c - g_i(c) | c C} for each g_i G. Then, B is called a center Galois extension with Galois group G if BI_i = B for each g_i 1 in G, and a weak center Galois extension with group G if BI_i = Be_i for some nonzero idempotent e_i in C for each g_i 1 in G. When e_i is a minimal element in the Boolean algebra generated by {e_i | g_i G} Be_i is a center Galois extension with Galois group H_i for some subgroup H_i of G. Moreover, the central Galois algebra B(1 – e_i) is characterized when B is a Galois algebra with Galois group G.AMS Subject Classification (1991): 16S35 16W20Supported by a Caterpillar Fellowship, Bradley University, Peoria, Illinois, USA.

Galois theory for comatrix corings: Descent theory, Morita theory, Frobenius and separability properties

El Kaoutit and Gómez-Torrecillas introduced comatrix corings, generalizing Sweedler's canonical coring, and proved a new version of the Faithfully Flat Descent Theorem. They also introduced Galois corings as corings isomorphic to a comatrix coring. In this paper, we further investigate this theory. We prove a new version of the Joyal-Tierney Descent Theorem, and generalize the Galois Coring Structure Theorem. We associate a Morita context to a coring with a fixed comodule, and relate it to Galois-type properties of the coring. An affineness criterion is proved in the situation where the coring is coseparable. Further properties of the Morita context are studied in the situation where the coring is (co)Frobenius.

     

Galois hulls of special Goppa codes and related codes with application to EAQECCs

Galois hulls of MDS codes can be applied to construst MDS entanglement-assisted quantum error-correcting codes (EAQECCs). Goppa codes and expurgated Goppa codes (resp., extended Goppa codes) over ${\mathbb{F}}_{q^m}$ are GRS codes (resp., extended GRS codes) when $m=1$. In this paper, we investigate the Galois dual codes of a special kind of Goppa codes and related codes and provide a necessary and sufficient condition for the Galois dual codes of such codes to be Goppa codes and related codes. Then we determine the Galois hulls of the above codes. In particular, we completely characterize Galois LCD, Galois self-orthogonal, Galois dual-containing and Galois self-dual codes among such family of codes. Moreover, we apply the above results to EAQECCs.     

Galois theory over rings of arithmetic power series

Let R be a domain, complete with respect to a norm which defines a non-discrete topology on R. We prove that the quotient field of R is ample, generalizing a theorem of Pop. We then consider the case where R is a ring of arithmetic power series which are holomorphic on the closed disc of radius 0<r<1 around the origin, and apply the above result to prove that the absolute Galois group of the quotient field of R is semi-free. This strengthens a theorem of Harbater, who solved the inverse Galois problem over these fields.
