Is decomposability of integer polynomials over the rational numbers an undecidable problem?

By a decomposition of a polynomial $F(x)$ over a field $K$ we mean writing $F(x)$ as $$ F(x)=G(H(x)) \quad(G(x), H(x) \in K[x]), $$ which is nontrivial if $\operatorname{deg} G(x)>1$ and $\...

Central isogeny, Shimura varieties and exceptional cases

For a simple complex Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$, its weight lattice is not equal to the root lattice (i.e. the center of its simply connected form is a non-trivial finite group) iff $\mathfrak g$ is of ...

Stabilizers of the action of Levi on abelianization of nilpotent radical

$\DeclareMathOperator\Lie{Lie}$Let $G$ be a simple connected reductive group over $\mathbb C$. Consider a parabolic subgroup $P=MU$ of $G$, where $M$ is a Levi of $P$ and $U$ is the unipotent radical ...

Are there connections between Calabi-Yau manifolds and number theory?

I am interested in understanding whether there are any significant connections between Calabi-Yau manifolds and number theory. Calabi-Yau manifolds are central objects in algebraic geometry and string ...

Tate conjecture for singular varieties in terms of intersection homology

In his book “Mixed motives and algebraic K-theory”, Jannsen generalizes the Tate conjecture to a potentially singular projective variety $X$ over a finitely generated field. The statement is the same ...

"Reflex field" for $\mathbb H/\Gamma$ for $\Gamma$ non-congruence

Suppose $\Gamma$ is a non-congruence arithmetic subgroup of $PGL_2(\mathbb Z)$, and $\mathbb H$ is the upper half plane of $\mathbb C$. Then by Belyi's theorem we know $\mathbb H/\Gamma$ is an ...

Polynomial discriminant equation

This is a fairly straightforward question, and I am hoping a definitive answer exists. Does there exist a quadratic form $A \in \mathbb{C}[x_1, x_2, x_3, x_4]$ and a cubic form $B \in \mathbb{C}[x_1, ...

Changing the weight space for an eigenvariety

Let $G$ be an algebraic group (like $\operatorname{GL}_2$ or $\operatorname{GL}_2 \times\operatorname{GL}_2$ for example). Assume that there exists an eigenvariety $\mathcal{E}^G$ parameterizing ...

Galois cohomology and Levi subgroups

Let $F$ a field and $G$ a smooth connected reductive group with a Levi subgroup $M$. Under what assumptions is $H^1(F, M) \to H^1(F, G)$ injective? In the case $F$ is nonarchimedean local I believe ...

Classification of nilpotent orbits over local fields (for type ABCD via partitions )

Let $\mathfrak g$ be a simple Lie algebra over a char $0$ local field $F$ (e.g. $F=\mathbb R$ or $F=\mathbb Q_p$) with its adjoint group $G$. Let $\mathcal N \subseteq \mathfrak g$ be its nilpotent ...

Levis, parabolics and Bruhat-Tits over Henselian local rings

Let $(R,m)$ be a Henselian local ring with algebraically closed or finite residue field $k$ and fraction field $F$. For example, we may work with $R=W(\mathbb F_p^{alg})$. The paper "Reductive ...

Are motives of K3 surfaces of abelian type?

I refer to the article of van Geemen https://arxiv.org/pdf/math/9903146. What van Geemen calls the Kuga-Satake-Hodge conjecture suggests that for a K3 surface $X$ over $\mathbb{C}$, the summand $h^2(X)...

Invariant theory (first fundamental theorem) for a direct sum of two fundamental representations

Let $G$ be a simple reductive group over $\mathbb C$, e.g. $G=\mathrm{SO}(V)$ is a special orthogonal group. Let $W_1$ and $W_2$ be two irreducible representations of $G$. Assume both $W_i$ are ...
