Given an abelian, CM extension K of any totally real number field k, we consider two conjectures `of Stark type'. The `Integrality Conjecture' concerns the image of a p-adic map `\mathfrak{s}_{K/k,S}' determined by the minus-part of the…
We prove a conjecture on Rubin-Stark elements, which was recently proposed by the author, and also by Mazur and Rubin, in a special case.
We collect here various conjectures on congruences made by the author in a series of papers, some of which involve binary quadratic forms and other advanced theories. Part A consists of 100 unsolved conjectures of the author while…
In a previous paper the second author developed a new approach to the abelian p-adic Stark Conjecture at s=1 and stated some related conjectures. This paper develops and applies techniques using p-adic measures and continued fractions to…
We give a systematic method of providing numerical evidence for higher order Stark-type conjectures such as (in chronological order) Stark's conjecture over $\mathbb{Q}$, Rubin's conjecture, Popescu's conjecture, and a conjecture due to…
We prove that a refinement of Stark's Conjecture formulated by Rubin is true up to primes dividing the order of the Galois group, for finite, abelian extensions of function fields over finite fields. We also show that in the case of…
The purpose of this paper is to formulate and study a common refinement of a version of Stark's conjecture and its $p$-adic analogue, in terms of Fontaine's $p$-adic period ring and $p$-adic Hodge theory. We construct period-ring-valued…
In this paper we extend methods of Rubin to prove the Gras conjecture for abelian extensions of a given imaginary quadratic field k and prime numbers p which divide the number of roots of unity in k.
Let $K/k$ be an abelian extension of number fields with a distinguished place of $k$ that splits totally in $K$. In that situation, the abelian rank one Stark conjecture predicts the existence of a unit in $K$, called the Stark unit,…
The theory of Weil-Stark elements is used to develop an axiomatic approach to the formulation of refined versions of Stark's Conjecture. This gives concrete new results concerning leading terms of Artin $L$-series and arithmetic properties…
In this paper we attack the Erdos-Straus conjecture by means of the structure of its solutions, extending and improving the results of a previous paper. Using previous results and supported by the works of Elsholtz and Tao and Monks and…
We describe a conjectural construction (in the spirit of Hilbert's 12th problem) of units in abelian extensions of certain base fields which are neither totally real nor CM. These base fields are quadratic extensions with exactly one…
Let $F$ be a totally real field of degree $n$ and $p$ an odd prime. We prove the $p$-part of the integral Gross--Stark conjecture for the Brumer--Stark $p$-units living in CM abelian extensions of $F$. In previous work, the first author…
We prove a logical implication between two old conjectures stated by Bapat and Sunder about the permanent of positive semidefinite matrices. Although Drury has recently disproved both conjectures, this logical implication yields a…
Let $F$ be a totally real field and $K$ a finite abelian CM extension of $F$. Using class field theory, we show that our previous result giving a strong form of the Brumer-Stark conjecture implies the minus part of the equivariant Tamagawa…
In this paper we give a complete proof of the Brumer-Stark conjecture over $\mathbf{Z}$.
We formulate a conjecture which generalizes Darmon's "refined class number formula". We discuss relations between our conjecture and the equivariant leading term conjecture of Burns. As an application, we give another proof of the "except…
We develop a detailed arithmetic theory related to special values at arbitrary integers of the Artin $L$-series of linear characters. To do so we define canonical generalized Stark elements of arbitrary `rank' and `weight', thereby…
We show that the semi-simplicity conjecture for finitely generated fields follows from the conjunction of the semi-simplicity conjecture for finite fields and for the maximal abelian extension of the field of rational numbers.
In this paper, a new criterion is given to determine the $p-$rationality of some complex cubic number fields in terms of $ p-$divisibility of certain terms of a third-order recurrence sequence, several illustrated examples are…
