Parametrizing all cyclic extensions of the rational numbers of degree 5

Is there a polynomial $f(T,X) \in \mathbb{Q}(T)[X]$ in the indeterminate $X$ over the field $\mathbb{Q}(T)$ with $\mathrm{Gal}(f/\mathbb{Q}(T)) \cong \mathbb{Z}/5\mathbb{Z}$ such that for every Galois ...

How does one understand geometric CFT in terms of modularity?

I have recently asked a question in a similar vein: What makes Geometric CFT easier than CFT? but I'm afraid I wasn't quite ripe to ask it yet. I have since consulted with the following sources: http:/...

Connected-étale sequence for ordinary CM elliptic curves

Let $E/k$ be an elliptic curve over algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$ with CM, for simplicity, by the maximal order of a quadratic imaginary field $K/\mathbb{Q}$. Suppose that $p$ is ...
