We develop a variety of new techniques to treat Diophantine equations of the shape $x^2+D =y^n$, based upon bounds for linear forms in $p$-adic and complex logarithms, the modularity of Galois representations attached to Frey-Hellegouarch…
We show that semi-infinite cohomology of a finite dimensional graded algebra (satisfying some additional requirements) are a particular case of a general categorical construction. The motivating example is provided by small quantum groups…
We introduce and study a dimensional-like characteristic of an uniformly almost periodic function, which we call the Diophantine dimension. By definition, it is the exponent in the asymptotic behavior of the inclusio length. Diophantine…
We construct and study fields F with the property that F has infinitely many extensions of some fixed degree, but E*/(E*)^n is finite for every finite extension E of F and every n>0.
We consider the quantum algebra $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ with $q$ not a root of unity. We describe the finite-dimensional irreducible $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$-modules from the point of view of the equitable presentation.
We show that the proportion of polynomials of degree $n$ over the finite field with $q$ elements, which have a divisor of every degree below $n$, is given by $c_q n^{-1} + O(n^{-2})$. More generally, we give an asymptotic formula for the…
Let $p$ be a prime number, $m$ be an even positive integer, and $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field with $q = p^m$ elements. In this paper, we compute the number of solutions with all coordinates in $\mathbb{F}_q^*$ for diagonal equations of…

This is a common introduction to math.RT/0101170, math.RT/0306333, math.RT/0506043, math.RT/0601028. Compared to these references there are new results including (i) a description of a separable closure of an extension of transcendence…
In a previous paper, we studied certain sequences of simultaneous rational approximations in ${\bf R}^2$ which present some analogy with the continued fractions. We got results around the Littlewood conjecture by using such approximations.…
An application of the particular type of nonlinear operator algebras to spectral problems is outlined. These algebras are associated with a set of one-dimensional self-similar potentials, arising due to the q-periodic closure…
We generalize Dirichlet's diophantine approximation theorem to approximating any real number $\alpha$ by a sum of two rational numbers $\frac{a_1}{q_1} + \frac{a_2}{q_2}$ with denominators $1 \leq q_1, q_2 \leq N$. This turns out to be…
We investigate new properties of the fractional Dirichlet Laplacian on smooth bounded domains and establish fractional product estimates and nonlinear Poincar\'e inequalities. We also use these tools to study the long-time dynamics of the…
Let F/F_q be an algebraic function field of genus g defined over a finite field F_q. We obtain new results on the existence, the number and the density of dimension zero divisors of degree g-k in F where k is a positive integer. In…
In this paper, we prove some new thickness theorems with partial derivatives. We give some applications. First, we give a simple criterion that can judge whether two scaled Cantor sets have non-empty intersection. Second, we prove under…

We give bounds on the number of solutions to the Diophantine equation (X+1/x)(Y+1/y) = n as n tends to infinity. These bounds are related to the number of solutions to congruences of the form ax+by = 1 modulo xy.
Let $A$ be an integral domain with quotient field $K$ of characteristic $0$ that is finitely generated as a $\mathbb{Z}$-algebra. Denote by $D(F)$ the discriminant of a polynomial $F\in A[X]$. Further, given a finite etale algebra $\Omega$,…
There exists an absolute constant $\delta > 0$ such that for all $q$ and all subsets $A \subseteq \mathbb{F}_q$ of the finite field with $q$ elements, if $|A| > q^{2/3 - \delta}$, then \[ |(A-A)(A-A)| = |\{ (a -b) (c-d) : a,b,c,d \in A\}| >…
In this paper, we establish hybrid results on Diophantine approximation with primes from short intervals. In particular, we prove the following result in a slightly modified form: If $\alpha$ is an irrational number having a continued…
