The Mathieu group is a Galois group over

Xiaoyu Huang, Blake Jackson, Kyu-Hwan Lee +3

Researchers studying the inverse Galois problem realized 25 of the 26 sporadic finite simple groups as Galois groups over during 1984-1989. We complete this program by…

Brauer-Manin obstructions requiring arbitrarily many Brauer classes

Jennifer Berg, Carlo Pagano, Bjorn Poonen +4

On a projective variety defined over a global field, any Brauer--Manin obstruction to the existence of rational points is captured by a finite subgroup of the Brauer group. We show…

Obstructions to applying the Baker--Bilu method for determining integral points on curves

Aaron Landesman, Bjorn Poonen

We prove that for every smooth projective integral curve of genus at least over , there exists such that no connected finite étale cover of…

Lattices in Tate modules

Bjorn Poonen, Sergey Rybakov

Refining a theorem of Zarhin, we prove that given a -dimensional abelian variety and an endomorphism of , there exists a matrix $A \in \operatorname{M}_{2g}(\mathbb{Z…

The proportion of derangements characterizes the symmetric and alternating groups

Bjorn Poonen, Kaloyan Slavov

Let be a subgroup of the symmetric group . If the proportion of fixed-point-free elements in (or a coset) equals the proportion of fixed-point-free elements in ,…
