Classification of self-dual torsion-free LCA groups

S. Wu (1992)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

In this paper we seek to describe the structure of self-dual torsion-free LCA groups. We first present a proof of the structure theorem of self-dual torsion-free metric LCA groups. Then we generalize the structure theorem to a larger class of self-dual torsion-free LCA groups. We also give a characterization of torsion-free divisible LCA groups. Consequently, a complete classification of self-dual divisible LCA groups is obtained; and any self-dual torsion-free LCA group can be regarded...

Action of the Grothendieck-Teichmüller group on torsion elements of full Teichmüller modular groups in genus zero

Benjamin Collas (2012)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

In this paper we establish the action of the Grothendieck-Teichmüller group G T ^ on the prime order torsion elements of the profinite fundamental group π 1 g e o m ( 0 , [ n ] ) . As an intermediate result, we prove that the conjugacy classes of prime order torsion of π ^ 1 ( 0 , [ n ] ) are exactly the prime order ones of the π 1 ( 0 , [ n ] ) .

A class–field theoretical calculation

Cristian D. Popescu (2006)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

In this paper, we give the complete characterization of the p –torsion subgroups of certain idèle–class groups associated to characteristic p function fields. As an application, we answer a question which arose in the context of Tan’s approach [] to an important particular case of a generalization of a conjecture of Gross [] on special values of L –functions.
