Hilbert irreducibility for algebraic points
Borys Kadets, Danny Neftin
We study the following problem: given a covering of curves over a number field , and an integer , when is the set \[\{p \in X_0(\overline{k})|\ \mathrm{d…
The Davenport-Lewis-Schinzel problem on the reducibility of
Angelot Behajaina, Joachim König, Danny Neftin
We solve the problem of Davenport--Lewis--Schinzel (DLS), originating in the 1950s, regarding the reducibility of . This yields an almost-complete solut…
Monodromy groups of polynomials of composition length 2
Angelot Behajaina, Joachim König, Danny Neftin
We study the monodromy groups of compositions of two indecomposable polynomials. In particular, we show that such monodromy groups either fulfill a certain ``largeness" property, o…
Low-genus primitive monodromy groups with a nonunique minimal normal subgroup
Spencer Gerhardt, Eilidh McKemmie, Danny Neftin
Let be a Riemann surface, and let be an indecomposable (branched) covering of genus and degree whose monodromy group has more than one m…
