The Birch and Swinnerton--Dyer conjecture famously predicts that the rank of an elliptic curve can be computed from its $L$-function. In this article we consider a weaker version of this conjecture called the parity conjecture and prove the…

Let $f$ be a primitive Hilbert modular form of parallel weight $2$ and level $N$ for the totally real field $F$, and let $p$ be a rational prime coprime to $2N$. If $f$ is ordinary at $p$ and $E$ is a CM extension of $F$ of relative…

The groups of similarity and coincidence rotations of an arbitrary lattice L in d-dimensional Euclidean space are considered. It is shown that the group of similarity rotations contains the coincidence rotations as a normal subgroup.…

Given any cube-free integer $\lambda>0$, we study the $3$-adic valuation of the algebraic part of the central $L$-value of the elliptic curve $$X^3+Y^3=\lambda Z^3.$$ We give a lower bound in terms of the number of distinct prime factors of…

Using Popa's deformation/rigidity theory, we investigate prime decompositions of von Neumann algebras of the form $L(\mathcal{R})$ for countable probability measure preserving equivalence relations $\mathcal{R}$. We show that…

Let $p$ be an odd prime. We show that for sufficiently large $n$, every $2$-block of $\mathfrak{S}_n$ and $\mathfrak{A}_n$ contains an ordinary irreducible character of degree divisible by $p$. For almost all $2$-blocks of $\mathfrak{A}_n$,…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety defined over a number field $K$. If $\mathfrak{p}$ is a prime of $K$ of good reduction for $A$, let $A(K)_\mathfrak{p}$ denote the image of the Mordell-Weil group via reduction modulo $\mathfrak{p}$. We prove…

The main purpose of this note is to understand the arithmetic encoded in the special value of the $p$-adic $L$-function $\mathcal{L}_p^g(\mathbf{f},\mathbf{g},\mathbf{h})$ associated to a triple of modular forms $(f,g,h)$ of weights…

Let $E/\mathbf{Q}$ be a semistable elliptic curve of analytic rank one, and let $p>3$ be a prime for which $E[p]$ is irreducible. In this note, following a slight modification of the methods of Jetchev-Skinner-Wan, we use Iwasawa theory to…

It is shown that the number of irreducible quartic factors of the form $g(x) = x^4+ax^3+(11a+2)x^2-ax+1$ which divide the Hasse invariant of the Tate normal form $E_5$ in characteristic $l$ is a simple linear function of the class number…

Given any finite index quadrilateral $(N, P, Q, M)$ of $II_1$-factors, the notions of interior and exterior angles between $P$ and $Q$ were introduced in \cite{BDLR2017}. We determine the possible values of these angles when the…

Let $G$ be a finite group of order divisible by two distinct primes $p$ and $q$. We show that $G$ possesses a non-trivial irreducible character of degree not divisible by $p$ nor $q$ lying in both the principal $p$- and $q$-block whenever…

We determine, up to multiplicative constants, the number of integers $n\le x$ that have no prime factor $\le w$ and a divisor in $(y,2y]$. Our estimate is uniform in $x,y,w$. We apply this to determine the order of the number of distinct…
