We construct a random model to study the distribution of class numbers in special families of real quadratic fields $\mathbb Q(\sqrt d)$ arising from continued fractions. These families are obtained by considering periodic continued…
We show that any proper symmetric two dimensional arithmetic progression contained in the interval $[-T,T]$ which avoids non-zero perfect squares has at most $O_\varepsilon(T^{20/27+\varepsilon})$ elements. This improves on a result of…
In this paper, we construct a subset of $\mathbb{R}^d$ which asymptotically and omnidirectionally contains arithmetic progressions but has Assouad dimension 1. More precisely, we say that $F$ asymptotically and omnidirectionally contains…
Let p and q be two positive primes. In this paper we obtain a complete characterization of quaternion division algebras H_K(p,q) over the composite K of n quadratic number fields. Also, in Section 6, we obtain a characterization of…
There exists "a square problem": in a unit square is there a point with four rational distances to the vertices? This problem is still regarded as unproved. Yang showed proofs for several special cases of the square problem. By the…
Theorem. An irreducible cubic polynomial with rational coefficients has a root in a one step radical extension of Q if and only if the discriminate is a square of a rational number. Theorem. An irreducible polynomial x^4+px^2+qx+s with…
Given two sets $\cA, \cB \subseteq \F_q$ of elements of the finite field $\F_q$ of $q$ elements, we show that the productset $$ \cA\cB = \{ab | a \in \cA, b \in\cB\} $$ contains an arithmetic progression of length $k \ge 3$ provided that…
A set of rational points on a curve is said to be in geometric progression if either the abscissae or the ordinates of the points are in geometric progression. Examples of three points in geometric progression on a circle are already known.…
An asymptotic formula for the variance of squarefree numbers in arithmetic progressions of given modulus was obtained by Nunes (see reference [3]). We improve one of the error terms.
We obtain transformation formulas for quadratic character sums with quartic and cubic polynomial arguments.
We prove that there does not exist a non-square quadratic polynomial with integer coefficients and an axis of symmetry which takes square values for N consecutive integers for N=7 or N >= 9. At the opposite, if N <= 6 or N=8 there are…
We find upper bounds that are sharp for the number of $k$th powers inside arbitrary arithmetic progressions whose step has $O(1)$ many divisors.
Linear algebra is usually defined over a field such as the reals or complex numbers. It is possible to extend this to skew fields such as the quaternions. However, to the authors' knowledge there is no commonly accepted notation of linear…
We investigate whether there exists an arithmetic progression or geometric progression consisting only palindromic numbers. In this paper we show that the answer to this question is NO. Given the first and final term we will also give an…
In this paper we present some new results about unlike powers in arithmetic progression. We prove among other things that for given $k\geq 4$ and $L\geq 3$ there are only finitely many arithmetic progressions of the form…
Let S be a fixed symmetric finite subset of SL_d(O_K) that generates a Zariski dense subgroup of SL_d(O_K) when we consider it as an algebraic group over Q by restriction of scalars. We prove that the Cayley graphs of SL_d(O_K/I) with…
We evaluate asymptotically the variance of the number of squarefree integers up to $x$ in short intervals of length $H < x^{6/11 - \varepsilon}$ and the variance of the number of squarefree integers up to $x$ in arithmetic progressions…
Let $C$ be a hyperelliptic curve given by the equation $y^2=f(x)$, where $f\in\Z[x]$ and $f$ hasn't multiple roots. We say that points $P_{i}=(x_{i}, y_{i})\in C(\Q)$ for $i=1,2,..., n$ are in arithmetic progression if the numbers $x_{i}$…
We generalise remarks of Euler and of Perron by explaining how to detail all quadratic irrational integers for which the symmetric part of the period of their continued fraction expansion commences with prescribed partial quotients. The…
We study the distribution of consecutive sums of two squares in arithmetic progressions. If $\{E_n\}_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ is the sequence of sums of two squares in increasing order, we show that for any modulus $q$ and any congruence classes…
