From a Macaulay's paper it follows that a lex-segment ideal has the greatest number of generators (the 0-th Betti number $\b_0$) among all the homogeneous ideals with the same Hilbert function. In this paper we prove that this fact extends…

We investigate unramified extensions of number fields with prescribed solvable Galois group and certain extra conditions. In particular, we are interested in the minimal degree of a number field $K$, Galois over $\mathbb{Q}$, such that $K$…

Let $K$ be an algebraic number field. We construct an additive Markov process $X_t^{K_\mathbb A}$ on the ring of adeles $K_\mathbb A,$ whose coordinates $X_t^{(v)}$ are independent and use this process to give a probabilistic interpretation…

We derive strong and effective lower bounds for the class number h(q) of the imaginary quadratic field Q(\sqrt{-q}), conditionally subject to the existence of many small (subnormal) gaps between zeros of the L-function associated with a…

We give effective bounds for the class number of any algebraic function field of genus $g$ defined over a finite field. These bounds depend on the possibly partial information on the number of places on each degree $\leq g$. Such bounds are…

In Grayson's combinatorial description of higher K-groups, the generators are bounded acyclic binary multi-complexes of arbitrary size. Generalising work by Kasprowski, Winges and the author, we show in this paper that multi-complexes of…

For a given genus $g \geq 1$, we give lower bounds for the maximal number of rational points on a smooth projective absolutely irreducible curve of genus $g$ over ${\mathbb F}_q$. As a consequence of Katz-Sarnak theory, we first get for any…

We establish a new version of Siegel's lemma over a number field $k$, providing a bound on the maximum of heights of basis vectors of a subspace of $k^N$, $N \geq 2$. In addition to the small-height property, the basis vectors we obtain…

A minimal geodesic on a Riemannian manifold is a geodesic defined on $\mathbb{R}$ that lifts to a globally distance minimizing curve on the universal covering. Bangert proved that there is a lower bound for the number of geometrically…

Given a numerical semigroup $S$ and a positive integer $d$, the fraction $\frac{S}{d}=\{ x \in \mathbb{N} \ | \ dx \in S\}$ is again a numerical semigroup. In this paper we determine a generating set for $\frac{S}{d}$ in terms of the…

Let Lambda be a numerical semigroup. Assume there exists an algebraic function field over GF(q) in one variable which possesses a rational place that has Lambda as its Weierstrass semigroup. We ask the question as to how many rational…

Let $n$ be a positive integer and $G$ be a transitive permutation subgroup of $S_n$. Given a number field $K$ with $[K:\mathbb{Q}]=n$, we let $\widetilde{K}$ be its Galois closure over $\mathbb{Q}$ and refer to…

Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH), we show that the norm-Euclidean Galois cubic fields are exactly those with discriminant $\Delta=7^2,9^2,13^2,19^2,31^2,37^2,43^2,61^2,67^2,103^2,109^2,127^2,157^2$. A large part of the…

Conditionally on the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH), we prove the following results: (1) a cyclic number field of degree $5$ is norm-Euclidean if and only if $\Delta=11^4,31^4,41^4$; (2) a cyclic number field of degree $7$ is…

We give bounds on the degree of generators for the ideal of relations of the graded algebras of modular forms with coefficients in $\mathbb{Q}$ over congruence subgroups $\Gamma_0(N)$ for $N$ satisfying some congruence conditions and for…

We prove that for all $k \ge 3$ and any integers $\Delta, n$ with $n \ge 2^\Delta,$ there exists a $k$-graph on $n$ vertices with maximum degree at most $\Delta$ such that $r(H)\geq\tw_{k-1}(c_k \Delta) \cdot n$ for some constant $c_k > 0$,…

We consider generating functionals for computing correlators in quantum field theories with random potentials. Examples of such theories include condensed matter systems with quenched disorder (e.g. spin glass) or cosmological systems in…

Let $k$ be a number field and $K$ a finite extension of $k$. We count points of bounded height in projective space over the field $K$ generating the extension $K/k$. As the height gets large we derive asymptotic estimates with a…

Let $k({\bf x})=k(x_1,\ldots ,x_n)$ be the rational function field, and $k\subsetneqq L\subsetneqq k({\bf x})$ an intermediate field. Then, Hilbert's fourteenth problem asks whether the $k$-algebra $A:=L\cap k[x_1,\ldots ,x_n]$ is finitely…

Let $K$ be a number field and let $G$ be a finitely generated subgroup of $K^\times$. For all but finitely many primes $\mathfrak p$ of $K$, the reduction $(G \bmod \mathfrak p)$ generates a well-defined subgroup of the multiplicative group…
