We call a positive definite Hermitian lattice regular if it represents all integers which can be represented locally by the lattice. We investigate binary regular Hermitian lattices over imaginary quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-m})$…
A positive definite even Hermitian lattice is called \emph{even universal} if it represents all even positive integers. We introduce a method to get all even universal binary Hermitian lattices over imaginary quadratic fields $\Q{-m}$ for…
If a positive definite Hermitian lattice represents all positive integers, we call it universal. Several mathematicians, including the author, found 25 universal binary Hermitian lattices. But their ad hoc proofs are complicated. We give…
A (positive definite integral) quadratic form is called almost 2-universal if it represents all (positive definite integral) binary quadratic forms except those in only finitely many equivalence classes. Oh [7] determined all almost…
We will introduce a method to get all universal Hermitian lattices over imaginary quadratic fields over $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-m})$ for all m. For each imaginary quadratic field $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-m})$, we obtain a criterion on universality of…
An integral quadratic lattice is called indefinite $k$-universal if it represents all integral quadratic lattices of rank $k$ for a given positive integer $k$. For $k\geq 3$, we prove that the indefinite $k$-universal property satisfies the…
A (positive definite and integral) quadratic form is said to be $\textit{prime-universal}$ if it represents all primes. Recently, Doyle and Williams in [2] classified all prime-universal diagonal ternary quadratic forms, and all…
The study of positive-definite matrices has focused on Hermitian matrices, that is, square matrices with complex (or real) entries that are equal to their own conjugate transposes. In the classical setting, positive-definite matrices enjoy…
We prove that there are at most 13 real quadratic fields that admit a ternary universal quadratic lattice, thus establishing a strong version of Kitaoka's Conjecture for quadratic fields. More generally, we obtain explicit upper bounds on…
We study well-rounded ideal lattices from totally definite quaternion algebras. We prove existence and classification results, and illustrate our methods with examples.
We prove an explicit upper bound on the number of real quadratic fields that admit a universal quadratic form of a given rank, thus establishing a density zero statement. More generally, we obtain such a result for totally positive definite…
Earnest and Khosravani, Iwabuchi, and Kim and Park recently gave a complete classification of the universal binary Hermitian forms. We give a unified proof of the universalities of these Hermitian forms, relying primarily on Ramanujan's…
In this paper, we study the unary Hermitian lattices over imaginary quadratic fields. Let $E=\mathbb{Q}\big(\sqrt{-d}\big)$ be an imaginary quadratic field for a square-free positive integer $d$, and let $\mathcal{O}$ be its ring of…
For a positive integer $m$, a (positive definite integral) quadratic form is called primitively $m$-universal if it primitively represents all quadratic forms of rank $m$. It was proved in arXiv:2202.13573 that there are exactly $107$…
We present an adaptation of Voronoi theory for imaginary quadratic number fields of class number greater than 1. This includes a characterisation of extreme Hermitian forms which is analogous to the classic characterisation of extreme…
We provide a criterion for a coherent sheaf to be an Ulrich sheaf in terms of a certain bilinear form on its global sections. When working over the real numbers we call it a positive Ulrich sheaf if this bilinear form is symmetric or…
A positive definite integral quadratic form is said to be almost (primitively) universal if it (primitively) represents all but at most finitely many positive integers. In general, almost primitive universality is a stronger property than…
We investigate a connection between two important classes of Euclidean lattices: well-rounded and ideal lattices. A lattice of full rank in a Euclidean space is called well-rounded if its set of minimal vectors spans the whole space. We…
Positive semidefinite Hermitian matrices that are not fully specified can be completed provided their underlying graph is chordal. If the matrix is positive definite the completion can be uniquely characterized as the matrix that maximizes…
Quadratic forms over Z that represent all positive integers are called universal. Starting with Ramanujan, 54 universal quaternary quadratic forms without cross product terms were discovered. The form that is the sum of four squares was…
