Determining skew left braces of size np

We define the twofold semidirect product of two skew left braces, in which both the additive and multiplicative groups are semidirect products of the corresponding groups of the given skew left braces. We consider an odd prime $p$ and an integer $n$ satisfying $p\nmid n$, $p\nmid|\mathrm{Aut}(E)|$ for every group $E$ of order $n$ and such that each group of order $np$ has a unique $p$-Sylow subgroup. Under these conditions, we prove that any skew left brace of size $np$ is either a twofold semidirect product of the trivial brace of size $p$ and a skew left brace of size $n$ or a companion skew left brace of that one. We develop an algorithm to obtain all skew left braces of size $np$ from the skew left braces of size $n$ and provide a formula to count them. We use this result to describe all skew left braces of size $12p$ for $p\geq 7$, which proves a conjecture of V.G. Bardakov, M.V. Neshchadim and M.K. Yadav.

Inducing braces and Hopf Galois structures

Let $p$ be a prime number and let $n$ be an integer not divisible by $p$ and such that every group of order $np$ has a normal subgroup of order $p$. (This holds in particular for $p>n$.) We prove that left braces of size $np$ may be obtained as a semidirect product of the unique left brace of size $p$ and a left brace of size $n$. We give a method to determine all braces of size $np$ from the braces of size $n$ and certain classes of morphisms from the multiplicative group of these braces of size $n$ to $\mathrm{Z}_p^*$. From it we derive a formula giving the number of Hopf Galois structures of abelian type $\mathrm{Z}_p \times E$ on a Galois extension of degree $np$ in terms of the number of Hopf Galois structures of abelian type $E$ on a Galois extension of degree $n$. For a prime number $p\geq 7$, we apply the obtained results to describe all left braces of size $12p$ and determine the number of Hopf Galois structures of abelian type on a Galois extension of degree $12p$.

Left braces of size 8p

We describe all left braces of size 8p for p an odd prime different from 3 or 7 and validate the number given by Bardakov, Neschadim and Yadav. We give a characterization for isomorphism classes of a semidirect product of left braces and then the description is done by first describing left braces of size 8, as conjugacy classes of regular subgroups of the corresponding holomorph, and then checking how many non isomorphic left braces of size 8p are obtained from each one of them.

Hopf-Galois module structure of quartic Galois extensions of $\mathbb{Q}$

Given a quartic Galois extension $L/\mathbb{Q}$ of number fields and a Hopf-Galois structure $H$ on $L/\mathbb{Q}$, we study the freeness of the ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_L$ as module over the associated order $\mathfrak{A}_H$ in $H$. For the classical Galois structure $H_c$, we know by Leopoldt's theorem that $\mathcal{O}_L$ is $\mathfrak{A}_{H_c}$-free. If $L/\mathbb{Q}$ is cyclic, it admits a unique non-classical Hopf-Galois structure, whereas if it is biquadratic, it admits three such Hopf-Galois structures. In both cases, we obtain that freeness depends on the solvability in $\mathbb{Z}$ of certain generalized Pell equations. We shall translate some results on Pell equations into results on the $\mathfrak{A}_H$-freeness of $\mathcal{O}_L$.

Hopf Galois module structure of dihedral degree $2p$ extensions of $\mathbb{Q}_p$

Let $p$ be an odd prime. For field extensions $L/\mathbb{Q}_p$ with Galois group isomorphic to the dihedral group $D_{2p}$ of order $2p$, we consider the problem of computing a basis of the associated order in each Hopf Galois structure and the module structure of the ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_L$. We solve the case in which $L/\mathbb{Q}_p$ is not totally ramified and present a practical method which provides a complete answer for the cases $p=3$ and $p=5$. We see that within this family of dihedral extensions, the ring of integers is always free over the associated orders in the different Hopf Galois structures.

Induced Hopf Galois Structures and their Local Hopf Galois Modules

The regular subgroup determining an induced Hopf Galois structure for a Galois extension $L/K$ is obtained as the direct product of the corresponding regular groups of the inducing subextensions. We describe here the associated Hopf algebra and Hopf action of an induced structure and we prove that they are obtained by tensoring the corresponding inducing objects. In order to deal with their associated orders we develop a general method to compute bases and free generators in terms of matrices coming from representation theory of Hopf modules. In the case of an induced Hopf Galois structure it allows us to decompose the associated order, assuming that inducing subextensions are arithmetically disjoint.

Hopf Galois structures on symmetric and alternating extensions

By using our previous results on induced Hopf Galois structures and a recent result by Koch, Kohl, Truman and Underwood on normality, we determine which types of Hopf Galois structures occur on Galois extensions with Galois group isomorphic to alternating or symmetric groups.

Induced Hopf Galois structures

For a finite Galois extension K/k and an intermediate field F such that Gal(K/F) has a normal complement in Gal(K/k), we construct and characterize Hopf Galois structures on K/k which are induced by a pair of Hopf Galois structures on K/F and F/k.

On the Galois correspondence theorem in separable Hopf Galois theory

In this paper we present a reformulation of the Galois correspondence theorem of Hopf Galois theory in terms of groups carrying farther the description of Greither and Pareigis. We prove that the class of Hopf Galois extensions for which the Galois correspondence is bijective is larger than the class of almost classically Galois extensions but not equal to the whole class. We show as well that the image of the Galois correspondence does not determine the Hopf Galois structure.

From Galois to Hopf Galois: theory and practice

Hopf Galois theory expands the classical Galois theory by considering the Galois property in terms of the action of the group algebra k[G] on K/k and then replacing it by the action of a Hopf algebra. We review the case of separable extensions where the Hopf Galois property admits a group-theoretical formulation suitable for counting and classifying, and also to perform explicit computations and explicit descriptions of all the ingredients involved in a Hopf Galois structure. At the end we give just a glimpse of how this theory is used in the context of Galois module theory for wildly ramified extensions.

The Hopf Galois property in subfield lattices

Hopf Galois theory for finite separable field extensions was introduced by Greither and Pareigis. They showed that all Hopf Galois extensions of degree up to 5 are either Galois or almost classically Galois and they determined the Hopf Galois character of a separable extension according to the Galois group (or the degree) of its Galois closure. In this paper we study degree 6 separable extensions as well as intermediate extensions for degrees 4,5 and 6. We present an example of a non almost classically Galois Hopf Galois extension of the field of rational numbers of the smallest possible degree and new examples of Hopf Galois extensions. In the last section we prove a transitivity property of the Hopf Galois condition.

Octahedral Galois representations arising from Q-curves of degree 2

Generically, one can attach to a Q-curve C octahedral representations Gal(Qbar/Q) --> GL(2,Fbar_3) coming from the Galois action on the 3-torsion of those abelian varieties of GL_2-type whose building block is C. When C is defined over a quadratic field and has an isogeny of degree 2 to its Galois conjugate, there exist such representations having image into GL(2,F_9). Going the other way, we can ask which mod 3 octahedral representations of Gal(Qbar/Q) arise from Q-curves in the above sense. We characterize those arising from quadratic Q-curves of degree 2. The approach makes use of Galois embedding techniques in GL(2,F_9), and the characterization can be given in terms of a quartic polynomial defining the S_4-extension of Q attached to the octahedral representation.
