We consider the issue of when the L-polynomial of one curve over $\F_q$ divides the L-polynomial of another curve. We prove a theorem which shows that divisibility follows from a hypothesis that two curves have the same number of points…

In this paper we study division algebras over the function fields of curves over $\Q_p$. The first and main tool is to view these fields as function fields over nonsingular $S$ which are projective of relative dimension 1 over the $p$ adic…

In this paper we consider divisibility sequences obtained from square matrices. We work with of matrix divisibility sequences associated to a semigroup and arising from endomorphisms of an affine space. We prove that determinant…

We describe the set of prime numbers splitting completely in the non-abelian splitting field of certain monic irreducible polynomials of degree three. As an application we establish some divisibility properties of the associated ternary…

We show that the prime divisors in every class on a projective curve over a finite field contain arbitrary large truncated generalized classes of finite effective divisors.

In this paper we consider elliptic divisibility sequences generated by a point on an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ with $j$-invariant $1728$ given by an integral short Weierstrass equation. For several different such elliptic…

We give a large sieve type inequality for functions supported on primes. As application we prove a conjecture by Elliott, and give bounds for short character sums over primes. The proves uses a combination of the large sieve and the Selberg…

Inspired by Lehmer's and Deaconescu's conjectures, as well as various analogue problems concerning Euler's totient function $\varphi(n)$, Schemmel's totient function $S_{2}(n)$, Jordan totient function $J_k$, and the unitary totient…

Elkies proved the infinitude of supersingular primes for elliptic curves over real number fields. We generalize Elkies' result to some abelian fourfolds in Mumford's families, and more generally, to certain families of Kuga-Satake abelian…

Let $A$ be a simple abelian variety over a number field $k$ such that $\operatorname{End}(A)$ is noncommutative. We show that $A$ splits modulo all but finitely many primes of $k$. We prove this by considering the subalgebras of…

It has been a well-known fact since Euclid's time that there exist infinitely many rational primes. Two natural questions arise: In which other rings, sufficiently similar to the integers, are there infinitely many irreducible elements? Is…

We determine the structure of the semisimple group algebra of certain groups over the rationals and over those finite fields where the Wedderburn decompositions have the least number of simple components. We apply our work to obtain similar…

For a class of Lucas sequences ${x_n}$, we show that if $n$ is a positive integer then $x_n$ has a primitive prime factor which divides $x_n$ to an odd power, except perhaps when $n = 1, 2, 3 or 6$. This has several desirable consequences.

In this note we compute a constant $N$ that bounds the number of non--primitive divisors in elliptic divisibility sequences over function fields of any characteristic. We improve a result of Ingram--Mah{\'e}--Silverman--Stange--Streng,…

Baba and Granath generalize Elkies' theorem on infinitude of supersingular primes for elliptic curves to abelian surfaces with quaternionic multiplication of discriminant $6$, whose field of moduli is $\mathbb{Q}$ and which is a Jacobian in…

We consider the algorithmic problem of computing a primitive idempotent of a central simple algebra over the field of rational functions over a finite field. The algebra is given by a set of structure constants. The problem is reduced to…

A graded-division algebra is an algebra graded by a group such that all nonzero homogeneous elements are invertible. This includes division algebras equipped with an arbitrary group grading (including the trivial grading). We show that a…

We classify, up to equivalence, all finite-dimensional simple graded division algebras over the field of real numbers. The grading group is any finite abelian group.

In this paper, in the first we give definitions of some classes of division rings which strictly contain the class of centrally finite division rings. One of our main purpose is to construct non-trivial examples of rings of new defined…

Motivated by a question of van der Poorten about the existence of infinite chain of prime numbers (with respect to some base), in this paper we advance the study of sequences of consecutive polynomials whose coefficients are chosen…
