Galois extensions of height-one commuting dynamical systems

Ghassan Sarkis, Joel Specter (2013)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

We consider a dynamical system consisting of a pair of commuting power series under composition, one noninvertible and another nontorsion invertible, of height one with coefficients in the p -adic integers. Assuming that each point of the dynamical system generates a Galois extension over the base field, we show that these extensions are in fact abelian, and, using results from the theory of the field of norms, we also show that the dynamical system must include a torsion series. From an earlier...

Galois orbits and equidistribution: Manin-Mumford and André-Oort.

Andrei Yafaev (2009)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

We overview a unified approach to the André-Oort and Manin-Mumford conjectures based on a combination of Galois-theoretic and ergodic techniques. This paper is based on recent work of Klingler, Ullmo and Yafaev on the André-Oort conjecture, and of Ratazzi and Ullmo on the Manin-Mumford conjecture.
