We construct a (smooth, projective) surface over the field of rational numbers, which is a counterexample to the Hasse principle not accounted for by the Manin obstruction. The construction relies on the classical 4-descent on elliptic…

We prove that cubic polynomial maps with a fixed Siegel disk and a critical orbit eventually landing inside that Siegel disk lie in the support of the bifurcation measure. This answers a question of Dujardin in positive. Our result implies…

Let $b(n)$ denote the number of cubic partition pairs of $n$. We give affirmative answer to a conjecture of Lin, namely, we prove that $$b(49n+37)\equiv 0 \pmod{49}.$$ We also prove two congruences modulo $256$ satisfied by…

A proof of a curious planar embedding theorem.

Let ${\rm rad}(n)$ denote the product of distinct prime factors of an integer $n\geq 1$. The celebrated $abc$ conjecture asks whether every solution to the equation $a+b=c$ in triples of coprime integers $(a,b,c)$ must satisfy ${\rm…

A quantitative version of the Oppenheim conjecture for inhomogeneous quadratic forms is proved. We also give an application to eigenvalue spacing on flat 2-tori with Aharonov-Bohm flux.

We give a reduction of the irregular case for the effective non-vanishing conjecture by virtue of the Fourier-Mukai transform. As a consequence, we reprove that the effective non-vanishing conjecture holds on algebraic surfaces.

We establish a weak form of Ennola's conjecture. We achieve this by showing that two main assumptions Louboutin made in his previous work hold true. These assumptions are about Laurent polynomials over the rationals, and we prove them by…

Using the circle method, we count integer points on complete intersections in biprojective space in boxes of different side length, provided the number of variables is large enough depending on the degree of the defining equations and…

Inspired by a method of La Bret\`eche relying on some unique factorisation, we generalize work of Blomer, Br\"udern, and Salberger to prove Manin's conjecture in its strong form conjectured by Peyre for some infinite family of varieties of…

Let $X$ be a cubic surface over a global field $k$. We prove that a Brauer-Manin obstruction to the existence of $k$-points on $X$ will persist over every extension $L/k$ with degree relatively prime to $3$. In other words, a cubic surface…

Let F be a Hecke-Maass cusp form for the group SL(4, Z) with Laplace eigenvalue lambda. Assume that F satisfies the Ramanujan conjecture at infinity (this is satisfied by almost all cusp forms). We show a power-saving sup-norm bound in…

Motivated by weighted partition of $n$ that vanish if and only if $n$ is a prime, Craig, van Ittersum, and Ono conjecture a classification of quasimodular forms which detect primes in the sense that the $n$-th Fourier coefficient vanishes…

Classifications and representations are two main topics in the theory of quadratic forms. In this paper, we consider these topics of ternary quadratic forms. For a given squarefree integer $N$, first we give the classification of positive…

We give more evidence for Patterson's conjecture on sums of exponential sums, by getting an asymptotic for a sum of quartic exponential sums over $\Q[i].$ Previously, the strongest evidence of Patterson's conjecture over a number field is…

We consider a one-dimensional singularly perturbed 4th order problem with the additional feature of a shift term. An expansion into a smooth term, boundary layers and an inner layer yields a formal solution decomposition, and together with…

Let $B$ be a bilinear form on pairs of points in the complex plane, of the form $B(p,q) = p^TMq$, for an invertible $2\times2$ complex matrix $M$. We prove that any finite set $S$ contained in an irreducible algebraic curve $C$ of degree…

We prove an analog of Perron-Frobenius theorem for multilinear forms with nonnegative coefficients, and more generally, for polynomial maps with nonnegative coefficients. We determine the geometric convergence rate of the power algorithm to…

The purpose of this note is to give an affirmative answer to a conjecture appearing in [Integral Transforms Spec. Funct. 26 (2015) 90-95].

Generalizing Cusick's theorem on the closedness of the classical Lagrange spectrum for the approximation of real numbers by rational ones, we prove that various approximation spectra are closed, using penetration properties of the geodesic…
