Arithmetic And Geometry Around Galois Theory

Arithmetic and Geometry Around Galois Theory

This Lecture Notes volume is the fruit of two research-level summer schools jointly organized by the GTEM node at Lille University and the team of Galatasaray University (Istanbul): "Geometry and Arithmetic of Moduli Spaces of Coverings (2008)" and "Geometry and Arithmetic around Galois Theory (2009)". The volume focuses on geometric methods in Galois theory. The choice of the editors is to provide a complete and comprehensive account of modern points of view on Galois theory and related moduli problems, using stacks, gerbes and groupoids. It contains lecture notes on étale fundamental group and fundamental group scheme, and moduli stacks of curves and covers. Research articles complete the collection.​

Arithmetic and Geometry Around Galois Theory

Galois-Teichmu ̈ller Theory and Arithmetic Geometry

From the 1980's, Grothendieck's "Esquisse d'un Programme" triggered tremendous developments in number theory and arithmetic geometry, extending from the studies of anabelian geometry and related Galois representations to those of polylogarithms and multiple zeta values, motives, rational points on arithmetic varieties, and effectiveness questions in arithmetic geometry. The present volume collects twenty-four articles written by speakers (and their coauthors) of two international meetings focused on the above themes held in Kyoto in October 2010. It includes both survey articles and research papers which provide useful information about this area of investigation.Published by Mathematical Society of Japan and distributed by World Scientific Publishing Co. for all markets except North America
