TO BE REVISED
The scientific activity in this area has significant connections with geometry and computer science, and takes place mainly in the following fields: algebraic number theory, study of p-adic field extensions, ramification; Galois module structure; study of the dynamics of polynomial maps; rational points of algebraic varieties; computational commutative algebra and algebraic geometry (with particular reference to the study and creation of algorithms for factorization analysis, determination of minimal systems of generators for projective algebraic varieties, correcting codes and cryptography, study of the topology of real algebraic varieties); Lie algebras and algebraic combinatorics; and representation theory (with particular reference to the study of geometric properties of algebraic groups, symmetrical and spherical varieties). Study of the cohomology of complex braid groups, ring cohomology of toric complementary arrangements, combinatorial and topology of wonderful models for arrangements of hyperplanes linked to groups of complex reflections.
