We give a list of universal linear relations between the Euler characteristics of manifolds consisting of multisingularities of a generic Lagrangian map into a five-dimensional space. From these relations it follows, in particular, that the…

Ideal class pairings map the rational points of rank $r\geq 1$ elliptic curves $E/\Q$ to the ideal class groups $\CL(-D)$ of certain imaginary quadratic fields. These pairings imply that $$h(-D) \geq \frac{1}{2}(c(E)-\varepsilon)(\log…

Let $D>1$ be an integer, and let $b=b(D)>1$ be its smallest divisor. We show that there are infinitely many number fields of degree $D$ whose primitive elements all have relatively large height in terms of $b$, $D$ and the discriminant of…

We study N=2 superconformal theories on Euclidean and Lorentzian four-manifolds with a view toward applications to holography and localization. The conditions for supersymmetry are equivalent to a set of differential constraints including a…

In this paper, we use the 2-decent method to find a series of odd non-congruent numbers $\equiv1\pmod 8$ whose prime factors are $\equiv1\pmod4$ such that the congruent elliptic curves have second lowest Selmer groups, which includes Li and…

We classify the algebraic combinatorial geometries of arbitrary field extensions of transcendence degree greater than 4 and describe their groups of automorphisms. Our results and proofs extend similar results and proofs by Evans and…

Let $N$ be a positive integer. For every $d | N$ such that $(d, N/d) = 1$ there exists an Atkin-Lehner involution $w_d$ of the modular curve $X_0(N)$. In this paper we determine all quotient curves $X_0(N)/w_d$ whose $\mathbb{Q}$-gonality…

Let A be an abelian variety defined over a number field F. For a prime number $\ell$, we consider the field extension of F generated by the $\ell$-powered torsion points of A. According to a conjecture made by Rasmussen and Tamagawa, if we…

When ordered by discriminant, it is known that about 83% of quartic fields over Q have associated Galois group S_4, while the remaining 17% have Galois group D_4. We study these proportions over a general number field F. We find that…

We extend the geometric interpretation of the roots of the quadratic congruence $\mu^2 \equiv D \pmod m$ as the tops of certain geodesics in the hyperbolic plane to the case when $D$ is square-free and $D\equiv 1\pmod 4$. This allows us to…

Let N be a positive integer and let f be a newform of weight 2 on \Gamma_0(N). In earlier joint work with K. Ribet and W. Stein, we introduced the notions of the modular number and the congruence number of the quotient abelian variety A_f…

Baba and Granath generalize Elkies' theorem on infinitude of supersingular primes for elliptic curves to abelian surfaces with quaternionic multiplication of discriminant $6$, whose field of moduli is $\mathbb{Q}$ and which is a Jacobian in…

We introduce here a general framework for studying continued fraction expansions for complex numbers and establish some results on the convergence of the corresponding sequence of convergents. For continued fraction expansions with partial…

Let $M$ be the moduli space of rank $2$ stable bundles with fixed determinant of degree $1$ on a smooth projective curve $C$ of genus $g\ge 2$. When $C$ is generic, we show that any elliptic curve on $M$ has degree (respect to…

For positive integers $1\leq i\leq k$, we consider the arithmetic properties of quotients of Wronskians in certain normalizations of the Andrews-Gordon $q$-series $$ \prod_{1\leq n\not \equiv 0,\pm i\pmod{2k+1}}\frac{1}{1-q^n}. $$ This…

Let $D\equiv 1\bmod{4}$ be a fundamental discriminant of a real quadratic field. We construct an analogue of the classical Dedekind eta function for the Hecke group $H(\sqrt{D})$. This gives rise to a new family of holomorphic modular…

Determinants with Legendre symbol entries have close relations with character sums and elliptic curves over finite fields. In recent years, Sun, Krachun and his cooperators studied this topic. In this paper, we confirm some conjectures…

We derive explicit isomorphisms between certain congruence subgroups of the Siegel modular group, the Hermitian modular group over an arbitrary imaginary-quadratic number field and the modular group over the Hurwitz quaternions of degree 2…

We study the generalized continued fraction expansions of complex numbers in term of elements from Euclidean subrings, especially Gaussian or Eisenstein integers, in a general framework as pursued in [3] and [1]. We introduce a common…

We show that we can develop from scratch and using only classical language a theory of relative quadratic extensions of a given number field $K$ which is as explicit and easy as for the well-known case that $K$ is the field of rational…
