In Hopf-Galois theory, every $H$-Hopf-Galois structure on a field extension $K/k$ gives rise to an injective map $\mathcal{F}$ from the set of $k$-sub-Hopf algebras of $H$ into the intermediate fields of $K/k$. Recent papers on the failure…
Let $C$ be a hyperelliptic curve of genus $g\geq 1$ over a number field $K$ with good reduction outside a finite set of places $S$ of $K$. We prove that $C$ has a Weierstrass model over the ring of integers of $K$ with height effectively…
This paper studies the structure of finite hyperfields $H$, and finds a subtle pattern in their addition operation. Consider the class $\mathcal{H}$ of all hyperfields with a given multiplicative group on $H^\times = H - \{0\}$ and given…
Let $A = K[x_1, ..., x_n]$ denote the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $K$ with each $\deg x_i = 1$. Let $I$ be a homogeneous ideal of $A$ with $I \ne A$ and $H_{A/I}$ the Hilbert function of the quotient algebra $A / I$. Given…
We apply the H-FGK formalism to the study of some properties of the general class of black holes in N=2 supergravity in four dimensions that correspond to the harmonic and hyperbolic ansatze and obtain explicit extremal and non-extremal…
There exists a function f: N -> N such that for every positive integer d, every quasi-finite field K and every projective hypersurface X of degree d and dimension at least f(d), the set X(K) is non-empty. This is a special case of a more…
Let dH be a Hamiltonian one form on the real plane, of degre d. We show that, if H is a Morse function, generic at infinity, then there exists a number N(d) depending only on d, such that every small perturbation of dH has at most N(d)…
An integer feasibility problem is a fundamental problem in many areas, such as operations research, number theory, and statistics. To study a family of systems with no nonnegative integer solution, we focus on a commutative semigroup…
The number of holes in a connected component in 2D images is a basic invariant. In this note, a simple formula was proven using our previous results in digital topology (Chen 2004, Chen and Rong (2010). The new is: $h =1+ (|C_4|-|C_2|)/4$,…
In LQG, black hole horizons are described by 2+1 dimensional boundaries of a bulk 3+1 dimensional spacetime. The horizon is endowed with area by lines of gravitational flux which pierce the surface. As is well known, counting of the…
The polynomial method has been used recently to obtain many striking results in combinatorial geometry. In this paper, we use affine Hilbert functions to obtain an estimation theorem in finite field geometry. The most natural way to state…
We investigate Hopf-Galois structures on a cyclic field extension $L/K$ of squarefree degree $n$. By a result of Greither and Pareigis, each such Hopf-Galois structure corresponds to a group of order $n$, whose isomorphism class we call the…
Within the newly formulated composite fermion hierarchy the filling fraction of a spherical quantum Hall system is obtained when it can be expressed as an odd or even denominator fraction. A plot of $\nu\frac{2S}{N-1}$ as a function of $2S$…
For any $K>2$ and the multiplicative cyclic group $\Omega_K$ of order $K$, consider any function $f:\Omega_K^n\to\mathbf{C}$ and its Fourier expansion $f(z)=\sum_{\alpha\in\{0,1,\ldots,K-1\}^n}a_\alpha z^\alpha$, with $d:=\text{deg}(f)$…
The theory of continued fractions of functions $ \sqrt D $ is used to give lower bound for class numbers $h(D)$ of general real quadratic function fields $K=k(\sqrt D)$ over $k={\bf F}_q(T)$. For five series of real quadratic function…
A subgroup $H$ of a finite group $G$ is said to satisfy $\Pi$-property in $G$ if for every chief factor $L/K$ of $G$, $|G/K:N_{G/K}(HK/K\cap L/K)|$ is a $\pi(HK/K\cap L/K)$-number. A subgroup $H$ of $G$ is called to be $\Pi$-supplemented in…
Let $K$ be a field whose absolute Galois group is finitely generated. If $K$ neither finite nor of characteristic 2, then every hyperelliptic curve over $K$ with all of its Weierstrass points defined over $K$ has infinitely many $K$-points.…
We use algebraic techniques to study homological filling functions of groups and their subgroups. If $G$ is a group admitting a finite $(n+1)$--dimensional $K(G,1)$ and $H \leq G$ is of type $F_{n+1}$, then the $n^{th}$--homological filling…
Let $k$ be a finite field and $L$ be the function field of a curve $C/k$ of genus $g\geq 1$. In the first part of this note, we show that the number of separable $S$-integral points on a constant elliptic curve $E/L$ is bounded solely in…
Heffter arrays are combinatorial structures used to construct orthogonal cyclic cycle decompositions and biembeddings of complete graphs onto surfaces. A Heffter array $H(m,n;h,k)$ is an $m \times n$ partially filled array with distinct…
