The amplitude of a Feynman graph in Quantum Field Theory is related to the point-count over finite fields of the corresponding graph hypersurface. This article reports on an experimental study of point counts over F_q modulo q^3, for graphs…

We introduce the notion of intersective polynomials having coefficients in the ring of integers $\mathscr{O}_K$ of a number field $K$, and define a notion of upper density of subsets of $\mathscr{O}_K$. We prove that given any intersective…

We study mapping properties of operators with kernels defined via a combination of continuous and discrete orthogonal polynomials, which provide an abstract formulation of quantum (q-) Fourier type systems. We prove Ismail conjecture…

In this paper we investigate locally free representations of a quiver Q over a commutative Frobenius algebra R by arithmetic Fourier transform. When the base field is finite we prove that the number of isomorphism classes of absolutely…

Let R be a regular semi-local domain containing a field such that all the residue fields are infinite. Let K be the fraction field of R. Let q be a quadratic space over R on a free rank n R-module P such that the projective quadric q=0 is…

Let F be a field of characteristic different from 2, and let $F^{n}$ denote the vector space of n-tuples of elements in F. Let ${e_{1}, ... , e_{n}}$ denote the canonical basis of $F^{n}$. Let r and s be nonnegative integers such that r + s…

The so called $q$-triplets were conjectured in 2004 and then found in nature in 2005. A relevant further step was achieved in 2005 when the possibility was advanced that they could reflect an entire infinite algebra based on combinations of…

For various quadruple systems F, we give asymptotically sharp lower bounds on the number of copies of F in a quadruple system with a prescribed number of vertices and edges. Our results extend those of Furedi, Keevash, Pikhurko, Simonovits…

We prove the following conjecture of Furstenberg (1969): if $A,B\subset [0,1]$ are closed and invariant under $\times p \mod 1$ and $\times q \mod 1$, respectively, and if $\log p/\log q\notin \mathbb{Q}$, then for all real numbers $u$ and…

We prove the following conjecture due to Bryant Mathews (2008). Let Q be the orthogonal grassmannian of totally isotropic i-planes of a non-degenerate quadratic form q over an arbitrary field (where i is an integer in the interval [1, (\dim…

The main purpose of this note is to give a counterexample to the following conjecture, raised by Florian Frick [\textit{Int. Math. Res. Not. IMRN 2020 (13), 4037-4061 (2020)}]. Conjecture. Let $r\geq 3$ and let $\mathcal{F}$ be a set…

A classic result in extremal graph theory, known as Mantel's theorem, states that every non-bipartite graph of order $n$ with size $m>\lfloor \frac{n^{2}}{4}\rfloor$ contains a triangle. Lin, Ning and Wu [Comb. Probab. Comput. 30 (2021)…

In by now classical work, K. Erdmann classified blocks of finite groups with dihedral defect groups (and more generally algebras of dihedral type) up to Morita equivalence. In the explicit description by quivers and relations of such…

A topological space is said to be cardinality homogeneous if every nonempty open subset has the same cardinality as the space itself. Let $X$ and $Y$ be cardinality homogeneous metric spaces of the same cardinality. If there exists a…

We survey a number of results on the counting of points on hypersurfaces defined over finite fields. We also investigate when one can be guaranteed a non-singular point on a projective hypersurface and give a condition on the cardinality of…

Let $F=(P,Q)\in\mathbb{C}[X,Y]^{2}$ be a polynomial mapping over the complex field $\mathbb{C}$. Suppose that $$ \det\,J_{F}(X,Y):=\frac{\partial P}{\partial X}\frac{\partial Q}{\partial Y}- \frac{\partial P}{\partial Y}\frac{\partial…

As a consequence of Kirchberg's work, Connes' Embedding Conjecture is equivalent to the property that every homomorphism of the group $F_\infty\times F_\infty$ into the unitary group $U(\ell^2)$ with the strong topology is pointwise…

Suppose given a commutative quadrangle in a Verdier triangulated category such that there exists an induced isomorphism on the horizontally taken cones. Suppose that the endomorphism ring of the initial or the terminal corner object of this…

Graphs embedded into surfaces have many important applications, in particular, in combinatorics, geometry, and physics. For example, ribbon graphs and their counting is of great interest in string theory and quantum field theory (QFT).…

We study the number of the vectors determined by two sets in d-dimensional vector spaces over finite fields. We observe that the lower bound of cardinality for the set of vectors can be given in view of an additive energy or the decay of…
