We develop the theory of resolvent degree, introduced by Brauer cite{Br} in order to study the complexity of formulas for roots of polynomials and to give a precise formulation of Hilberts 13th Problem. We extend the context of this theory to enumerative problems in algebraic geometry, and consider it as an intrinsic invariant of a finite group. As one application of this point of view, we prove that Hilberts 13th Problem, and his Sextic and Octic Conjectures, are equivalent to various enumerative geometry problems, for example problems of finding lines on a smooth cubic surface or bitangents on a smooth planar quartic.
In this paper we consider the Galois covers of algebraic surfaces of degree 6, with all associated planar degenerations. We compute the fundamental groups of those Galois covers, using their degeneration. We show that for 8 types of degenerations the
For each $n$, let $text{RD}(n)$ denote the minimum $d$ for which there exists a formula for the general polynomial of degree $n$ in algebraic functions of at most $d$ variables. In 1945, Segre called for a better understanding of the large $n$ behavi
For a subring $R$ of the rational numbers, we study $R$-localization functors in the local homotopy theory of simplicial presheaves on a small site and then in ${mathbb A}^1$-homotopy theory. To this end, we introduce and analyze two notions of nilpo
We study which quadratic forms are representable as the local degree of a map $f : A^n to A^n$ with an isolated zero at $0$, following the work of Kass and Wickelgren who established the connection to the quadratic form of Eisenbud, Khimshiashvili, a
In order to develop the foundations of logarithmic derived geometry, we introduce a model category of logarithmic simplicial rings and a notion of derived log etale maps and use this to define derived log stacks.
