We give necessary and sufficient conditions for an orthogonal group defined over a global field of characteristic not equal 2 to contain a maximal torus of a given type. ...
Many classical results concerning quadratic forms have been extended to Hermitian forms over algebras with involution. However, not much is known in the case of sesquilinear forms without any symmetry property. The present paper will establish a Witt cance ...
The aim of this paper is to give upper bounds for the Euclidean minima of abelian fields of odd prime power conductor. In particular, these bounds imply Minkowski's conjecture for totally real number fields of conductor p(r), where p is an odd prime number ...
This is a correction to [BP 11] E. Bayer-Fluckiger, R. Parimala, Galois algebras, Hasse principle and induction-restriction methods, Documenta Math. 16 (2011), 677-707. ...
Let k be a field of characteristic ≠2, A be a central simple algebra with involution σ over k and W(A,σ) be the associated Witt group of hermitian forms. We prove that for all purely inseparable extensions L of k, the canonical map rL/k:W(A,σ)⟶W(AL,σL) is ...
Let k be a field of characteristic /=2 and let W(k) be the Witt ring of k and L a finite extension of k. If L/k is a Galois extension, then the image of rL/k is contained in W(L)Gal(L/k) where rL/k:W(k)→W(L) is the canonical ring homomorphism. Rosenberg an ...
The notion of Euclidean minimum of a number field is a classical one. In this paper we generalize it to central division algebras and establish some general results in this new context. ...
Let k be a field of characteristic = 2, and let G be a finite group. The aim of this article is to give a cohomological criterion for the isomorphism of multiples of trace forms of G-Galois algebras over k. The proof uses results concerning multiples ...
The aim of this paper is to give new upper bounds for Euclidean minima of algebraic number fields. In particular, to show that Minkowski's conjecture holds for the maximal totally real subfields of cyclotomic fields of prime power conductor. ...
