We address partition regularity problems for homogeneous quadratic equations. A consequence of our main results is that, under natural conditions on the coefficients $a,b,c$, for any finite coloring of the positive integers, there exists a…

We give a methodology for solving the chiral equations $(\alpha g_{,z} g^{-1})_{,\overline z} + (\alpha g_{,\overline z} g^{-1})_{,z} \ = \ 0 $ where $g$ belongs to some Lie group $G$. The solutions are writing in terms of Harmonic maps.…

The Cage Problem requires for a given pair $k \geq 3, g \geq 3$ of integers the determination of the order of a smallest $k$-regular graph of girth $g$. We address a more general version of this problem and look for the $(k,g)$-spectrum of…

In this paper, we determine the complex-valued solutions of the following functional equations \[g(x\sigma (y)) = g(x)g(y)+f(x)f(y),\quad x,y\in S,\]\[f(x\sigma (y)) = f(x)g(y)+f(y)g(x),\quad x,y\in S,\]\[f(x\sigma (y)) =…

We study the solubility of cubic equations over the integers. Assuming a necessary congruence condition, the existence of such solutions is established when the $h$-invariant of $C$ is at least $14$, improving on work of Davenport-Lewis and…

In this article we explicitly describe irreducible trinomials X^3-aX+b which gives all the cyclic cubic extensions of Q. In doing so, we construct all integral points (x,y,z) with GCD(y,z)=1, of the curves X^2+3Y^2 = 4DZ^3 and…

Different authors have done analysis regarding sums of powers References number 1,2 and 3, but systematic approach for solving Diophantine equations having sums of many biquadratics equal to a quartic has not been done before. In this paper…

Let $(\mathcal{M}, c_k, n_k,\kappa)$ be a class of homogeneous Moran sets. Suppose $f(x,y)\in C^3$ is a function defined on $\mathbb{R}^2$. Given $E_1, E_2\in(\mathcal{M}, c_k, n_k,\kappa) $, in this paper, we prove, under some checkable…

Given an integer $N \geq 3$, we prove that for any ring $R$ and any finite locally free $R$-group scheme $G$ which is fppf-locally (over $R$) isomorphic the $N$-torsion subscheme of some elliptic curve $E/R$, there is a smooth affine curve…

A projective hypersurface is nodal if it does not have singularities worse than simple nodes. We calculate the rational cohomology of the spaces of equations of nodal cubic and quartic plane curves and also nodal cubic surfaces in the…

It is known that the number of homomorphisms from a group $F$ to a group $G$ is divisible by the greatest common divisor of the order of $G$ and the exponent of $F/[F,F]$. We investigate the number of homomorphisms satisfying some natural…

In this paper we obtain new parametric ideal solutions of the Tarry-Escott problem of degrees 2, 3 and 5, that is, of the diophantine systems $\sum_{i=1}^{k+1}x_i^j=\sum_{i=1}^{k+1}y_i^j,\;j=1,\,2,\,\dots,\,k$, when $k$ is 2, 3 or 5. When…

Suppose B=F[x,y,z]/h is the homogeneous coordinate ring of a characteristic p degree 3 irreducible plane curve C with a node. Let J be a homogeneous (x,y,z)-primary ideal and n -> e_n be the Hilbert-Kunz function of B with respect to J. Let…

In this paper we find the solutions of the functional equation $$f(xy) = g(x)h(y) + \sum_{j=1}^n g_j(x)h_j(y), \;x,y \in M,$$ where $M$ is a monoid, $n\geq 2$, and $g_j$ (for $j=1,...,n$) are linear combinations of at least $2$ distinct…

In this note we show that for a given irreducible binary quadratic form $f(x,y)$ with integer coefficients, whenever we have $f(x,y) = f(u,v)$ for integers $x,y,u,v$, there exists a rational automorphism of $f$ which sends $(x,y)$ to…

We compute explicit equations for the surfaces Z(17,1) and Z(17,3) parametrising pairs of $17$-congruent elliptic curves. We find that each is a double cover of the same elliptic K3-surface. We use these equations to exhibit the first…

There is a canonical isomorphism between the coarse moduli spaces of somooth hyperelliptic curves of genus g and binary forms of degree 2g+2 with nonzero discriminant. In this paper, we study the extension of this isomorphism to the…

Let $\E$ be an ordinary elliptic curve over a finite field $\F_{q}$ of $q$ elements and $x(Q)$ denote the $x$-coordinate of a point $Q = (x(Q),y(Q))$ on $\E$. Given an $\F_q$-rational point $P$ of order $T$, we show that for any subsets…

We determine all continuous solutions $g\colon I\to I$ of the polynomial-like iterative equation $g^3(x)=3g(x)-2x$, where $I\subset\mathbb R$ is an interval. In particular, we obtain an answer to a problem posed by Zolt\'{a}n Boros (during…
