Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be a hypersurface local ring of dimension $d \geq 1$, $N$ a perfect $A$-module and let $I$ be an ideal in $A$ with $\ell(N/IN)$ finite. We show that there is a integer $r_I \geq -1$ (depending only on $I$ and $N$)…
Given a finite set $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$, points $a_1,a_2,\dotsc,a_{\ell} \in A$ form an $\ell$-hole in $A$ if they are the vertices of a convex polytope which contains no points of $A$ in its interior. We construct arbitrarily large…
This note constructs a local generalized finite element basis for elliptic problems with heterogeneous and highly varying coefficients. The basis functions are solutions of local problems on vertex patches. The error of the corresponding…
It is a well known result that the number of points over a finite field on the Legendre family of elliptic curves can be written in terms of a hypergeometric function modulo $p$. In this paper, we extend this result, due to Igusa, to a…
We consider a variation of the classical Erd\H{o}s-Szekeres problems on the existence and number of convex $k$-gons and $k$-holes (empty $k$-gons) in a set of $n$ points in the plane. Allowing the $k$-gons to be non-convex, we show bounds…

Let $k$ be a number field and $G$ be a finite group. Let $\mathfrak{F}_{k}^{G}(Q)$ be the family of number fields $K$ with absolute discriminant $D_K$ at most $Q$ such that $K/k$ is normal with Galois group isomorphic to $G$. If $G$ is the…
In this paper we study the Hilbert function HR of one-dimensional semigroup rings R = k[[S]]. For some classes of semigroups, by means of the notion of support of the elements in S, we give conditions on the generators of S in order to have…
Let $K$ be a field, $A$ a standard graded $K$-algebra and $M$ a finitely generated graded $A$-module. Inspired by our previous works, we study the Hilbert depth of $h_M$, that is $$\operatorname{hdepth}(h_M)=\max\{d\;:\; \sum\limits_{j\leq…
We show that any finite $S \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ in general position has arbitrarily large supersets $T \supseteq S$ in general position with the property that $T$ contains no empty convex polygon, or hole, with $C_d$ points, where $C_d$ is…
Let $ H $ be a subgroup of a finite group $ G $. We say that $ H $ satisfies the partial $ \mathscr L $-$ \Pi $-property in $ G $ if $ H\unlhd G $, or if $ | G / K : \mathrm{N} _{G / K} (HK/K)| $ is a $ \pi (HK/K) $-number for any $ G…
Suppose that $K$ is a field of characteristic 0, $p$ is an odd prime, $r$ a positive integer, $q=p^r$ a prime power. Suppose that $f(x)$ is a polynomial of degree $n > 4$ with coefficients in $K$ and without multiple roots. Let us consider…
Let E/k(T) be an elliptic curve defined over a rational function field of characteristic zero. Fix a Weierstrass equation for E. For points R in E(k(T)), write x_R=A_R/D_R^2 with relatively prime polynomials A_R(T) and D_R(T) in k[T]. The…
Clusters of the two-dimensionnal t--J model with 2 holes and up to 26 sites are diagonalized using a Lanczos algorithm. The behaviour of the binding energy with system size suggests the existence of a finite critical value of J above which…

Let K be a global field, that is, a number field or a global function field. It is known that the answer to the question in the title over K is "Yes" when K has no real embeddings. We show that otherwise the answer is "No". Namely, we show…

The P\'olya group ${\rm Po}(K)$ of a number field $K$ is the subgroup of the ideal class group ${\rm Cl}(K)$ of $K$ generated by the classes of all the products of the prime ideals of $K$ with the same norm. Motivated by the classical "one…
Let $A$ be a finite commutative nilpotent $\mathbb{F}_p$-algebra structure on $G$, an elementary abelian group of order $p^n$. If $K/k$ is a Galois extension of fields with Galois group $G$ and $A^p = 0$, then corresponding to $A$ is an…
