We introduce totally nonnegative Grassmannians over finite fields where an element of a finite field is nonnegative if it is a square of an element of the finite field. Explicit point counts are given in some special cases where we find new…

We study on finite unramified extensions of global function fields (function fields of one valuable over a finite field). We show two results. One is an extension of Perret's result about the ideal class group problem. Another is a…

In this paper we further study the relationship between convexity and additive growth, building on the work of Schoen and Shkredov (\cite{SS}) to get some improvements to earlier results of Elekes, Nathanson and Ruzsa (\cite{ENR}). In…

In this paper, we get several new results on permutation polynomials over finite fields. First, by using the linear translator, we construct permutation polynomials of the forms $L(x)+\sum_{j=1}^k \gamma_jh_j(f_j(x))$ and…

An asymptotic formula with a square root error term is obtained for the number of elements with given trace and norm in a finite semisimple algebra over a finite field. This extends previous results from finite etale algebras (commutative…

Let $R$ be an order in an algebraic number field. If $R$ is a principal order, then many explicit results on its arithmetic are available. Among others, $R$ is half-factorial if and only if the class group of $R$ has at most two elements.…

We improve an existing result on exponential quadrilinear sums in the case of sums over multiplicative subgroups of a finite field and use it to give a new bound on exponential sums with quadrinomials.

The twin prime conjecture asserts that there are infinitely many pairs of primes that differ by two. While recent advances have improved our understanding of bounded prime gaps, the conjecture remains unresolved. This paper refines the…

For the function $f(m,p,q,n)$, where $k,s,a$ general complex numbers and $q$ any positive integer, we establish the sum of values of the Hurwitz-Lerch zeta function $\Phi(f(m,p,q,n),k,a)$ taken at prime numbers $n$. Special cases of this…

We improve the exponent in the finite field sum-product problem from $11/9$ to $5/4$, improving the results of Rudnev, Shakan and Shkredov. That is, we show that if $A\subset \mathbb{F}_p$ has cardinality $|A|\ll p^{1/2}$ then \[…
