In the paper, we study the asymptotic distribution of real algebraic integers of fixed degree as their naive height tends to infinity. Let $I \subset \mathbb{R}$ be an arbitrary bounded interval, and $Q$ be a sufficiently large number. We…
Let k be a an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic, and we let h be the usual Weil height for the n-dimensional affine space corresponding to the function field k(t) (extended to its algebraic closure). We prove that for…
We extend our previous work on hypergeometric point count formulas by proving that we can express the number of points on families of Dwork hypersurfaces $$X_{\lambda}^d: \hspace{.1in} x_1^d+x_2^d+\ldots+x_d^d=d\lambda x_1x_2\cdots x_d$$…
We establish asymptotic formulas for counting rational points near finite type curves on the plane, generalizing Huang's result.
We establish formulas for the number of all downsets (or equivalently, of all antichains) of a finite poset P. Then, using these numbers, we determine recursively and explicitly the number of all posets having a fixed set of minimal points…
In this paper, we give a survey of the known results concerning the tensor rank of the multiplication in finite extensions of finite fields, enriched with some not published recent results as well as analyzes enhancing the qualitative…
In this work, we use the notion of ``symmetry'' of functions for an extension $K/L$ of finite fields to produce extensions of a function field $F/K$ in which almost all places of degree one split completely. Then we introduce the notion of…
We investigate complete arcs of degree greater than two, in projective planes over finite fields, arising from the set of rational points of a generalization of the Hermitian curve. The degree of the arcs is closely related to the number of…
In this article we prove lower and upper bounds for class numbers of algebraic curves defined over finite fields. These bounds turn out to be better than most of the previously known bounds obtained using combinatorics. The methods used in…
We prove an upper bound for the number of rational points of bounded height on irreducible affine hypersurfaces. More precisely, given an irreducible polynomial $f \in \mathbb{Z}[X_1, \dots, X_n]$, we prove an upper bound on the number of…
We exhibit a probabilistic algorithm which computes a rational point of an absolutely irreducible variety over a finite field defined by a reduced regular sequence. Its time--space complexity is roughly quadratic in the logarithm of the…
Let K be an algebraic number field. For a degree d rational morphism of projective n-space defined over K let R denote its minimal resultant ideal. For a fixed height function on the moduli space of dynamical systems this paper shows that…
Let f in Q[z] be a polynomial of degree d at least two. The associated canonical height \hat{h}_f is a certain real-valued function on Q that returns zero precisely at preperiodic rational points of f. Morton and Silverman conjectured in…
We establish asymptotic formulas for the number of integral points of bounded height on toric varieties.
A method is described to sum multi-dimensional arithmetic functions subject to hyperbolic summation conditions, provided that asymptotic formulae in rectangular boxes are available. In combination with the circle method, the new method is a…
Estimation of the level set of a function (i.e., regions where the function exceeds some value) is an important problem with applications in digital elevation mapping, medical imaging, astronomy, etc. In many applications, the function of…
We express the number of points on the Dwork hypersurface $$X_{\lambda}^d: x_1^d+x_2^d+\cdots +x_d^d=d\lambda x_1x_2\cdots x_d$$ over a finite field of order $q \not \equiv 1 \pmod{d}$ in terms of McCarthy's $p$-adic hypergeometric function…
We introduce an asymptotic notion of positivity in algebraic geometry that turns out to be related to some high-dimensional convex sets. The dimension of the convex sets grows with the number of birational operations. In the case of complex…
We study rational points on the elliptic surface given by the equation: $$y^2 = x^3 + AxQ(u,v)^2 + BQ(u,v)^3,$$ where $A,B\in \mathbb{Z}$ satisfy that $4A^3-27B^2\neq 0$ and $Q(u,v)$ is a positive-definite quadratic form. We prove…
Let n be a positive integer. We consider the Sylvester Resultant of f and g, where f is a generic polynomial of degree 2 or 3 and g is a generic polynomial of degree n. If f is a quadratic polynomial, we find the resultant's height. If f is…
