The thrust of this thesis is to describe base change BC_E/F at the level of chamber homology and K-theory for some p-adic groups, such as SL(2,F), GL(1,F) and GL(2,F). Here F is a non-archimedean local field and E is a Galois extension of F. We have had to master the representat…

In this thesis we consider multiplicative properties of integers in short intervalsusing techniques involving exponential sums, sieve methods and a wide variety of other principles from analytic number theory. The existence of products of three pairwise coprime integers are inve…

There is a wonderful conjecture of Bloch and Kato that generalizes both the analytic Class Number Formula and the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture. The conjecture itself was generalized by Fukaya and Kato to an equivariant formulation. In this thesis, I provide a new proof f…
