Abstract In this paper, we prove several results on finitely generated dynamical Galois groups attached to quadratic polynomials. First, we show that, over global fields, quadratic post-critically finite (PCF) polynomials are precisely those having an arboreal representation whose image is topologically finitely generated. To obtain this result, we also prove the quadratic case of Hindes’ conjecture on dynamical non-isotriviality. Next, we give two applications of this result. On the one hand, we prove that quadratic polynomials over global fields with abelian dynamical Galois group are necessarily PCF, and we combine our results with local class field theory to classify quadratic pairs over ${ {\mathbb{Q}}}$ with abelian dynamical Galois group, improving on recent results of Andrews and Petsche. On the other hand, we show that several infinite families of subgroups of the automorphism group of the infinite binary tree cannot appear as images of arboreal representations of quadratic polynomials over number fields, yielding unconditional evidence toward Jones’ finite index conjecture.

This paper is devoted to finding new examples of mild pro-p-groups as Galois groups over global fields, following the work of Labute ([6]). We focus on the Galois group [Formula: see text] of the maximal T-split S-ramified pro-p-extension of a global field k. We first retrieve some facts on presentations of such a group, including a study of the local-global principle for the cohomology group [Formula: see text], then we show separately in the case of function fields and in the case of number fields how it can be used to find some mild pro-p-groups.

We establish several surjectivity theorems regarding the Galois groups of small iterates of [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text]. To do this, we use explicit techniques from the theory of rational points on curves, including the method of Chabauty–Coleman and the Mordell–Weil sieve. For example, we succeed in finding all rational points on a hyperelliptic curve of genus 7, with rank 5 Jacobian, whose points parametrize quadratic polynomials with a “newly small” Galois group at the fifth stage of iteration.

Let G be a wreath product of the form C2 ≀ H, where C2 is the cyclic group of order 2. Under mild conditions for H we determine the asymptotic behavior of the counting functions for number fields K/k with Galois group G and bounded discriminant. Those counting functions grow linearly with the norm of the discriminant and this result coincides with a conjecture of Malle. Up to a constant factor these groups have the same asymptotic behavior as the conjectured one for symmetric groups.

Coates and Wiles [1] and B. Perrin-Riou (see [2]) study the arithmetic of an elliptic curve E defined over a number field F with complex multiplication by an imaginary quadratic field K by using p-adic techniques, which combine the classical descent of Mordell and Weil with ideas of Iwasawa’s theory of Zp-extensions of number fields. In a special case they consider a non-cyclotomic Zp-extension F∞ defined via torsion points of E and a certain Iwasawa module attached to E/F, which can be interpreted as an abelian Galois group of an extension of F∞. We are interested in the corresponding non-abelian Galois group and we want to show that the whole situation is quite analogous to the case of the cyclotomic Zp-extension (which is generated by torsion points of Gm).

We construct a two-variable analogue of Perrin-Riou's p-adic regulator map for the Iwasawa cohomology of a crystalline representation of the absolute Galois group of ℚp, over a Galois extension whose Galois group is an abelian p-adic Lie group of dimension 2. We use this regulator map to study p-adic representations of global Galois groups over certain abelian extensions of number fields whose localization at the primes above p is an extension of the above type. In the example of the restriction to an imaginary quadratic field of the representation attached to a modular form, we formulate a conjecture on the existence of a "zeta element", whose image under the regulator map is a p-adic L-function. We show that this conjecture implies the known properties of the 2-variable p-adic L-functions constructed by Perrin-Riou and Kim.

Abstract Let K/k be an extension of number fields. We describe theoretical results and computational methods for calculating the obstruction to the Hasse norm principle for K/k and the defect of weak approximation for the norm one torus \[R_{K/k}^1{\mathbb{G}_m}\] . We apply our techniques to give explicit and computable formulae for the obstruction to the Hasse norm principle and the defect of weak approximation when the normal closure of K/k has symmetric or alternating Galois group.
