This work solves an open question in finite-state compressibility posed by Lutz and Mayordomo about compressibility of real numbers in different bases. Finite-state compressibility, or equivalently, finite-state dimension, quantifies the…

In the Engel group with its Carnot group structure we study subsets of locally finite subRiemannian perimeter and possessing constant subRiemannian normal. We prove the rectifiability of such sets: more precisely we show that, in some…

Here we describe the distribution of rational points on the Hilbert scheme of two points in the projective plane. More specifically, we explicitly describe a two-parameter family of height functions $H_{s, t}$, such that the height function…

In this paper we prove a formula for the number of rational points of bounded height relative to all the generators of the cone of effective divisor for a toric variety over a number field.

The existence of End Elementary Extensions of models M of ZFC is related to the ordinal height of M, according to classical results due to Keisler, Morley and Silver. In this paper, we further investigate the connection between the height…

It is well known that for transitive unimodal logics, finite height is both necessary and sufficient for local tabularity. It is also well known that for intermediate logics, finite height is sufficient (but not necessary) for local…

Consider a standard graded artinian $k$-algebra $B$ and an extension of $B$ by a new variable, $A=B\otimes_k k[x]/(x^d)$ for some $d\geq 1$. We will show how maximal rank properties for powers of a general linear form on $A$ can be…

We prove an explicit asymptotic formula for the logarithm of the minimal ranks of $n$-universal lattices over the ring of integers of totally real number fields. We also show that, for any constant $C > 0$ and $n \geq 3$, there are only…

Let $L$ be a finite extension of the rational function field over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ and $E$ be a Drinfeld module defined over $L$. Given finitely many elements in $E(L)$, this paper aims to prove that linear relations among…

We show that transcendental curves in $\mathbb R^n$ (not necessarily compact) have few rational points of bounded height provided that the curves are well behaved with respect to algebraic sets in a certain sense and can be parametrized by…

We give a new proof of a result of DiPippo and Wan for counting points of bounded height on projective spaces over global function fields. The new proof adapts the geometry of numbers arguments used by Schanuel in the number field case.

We show that if $f$ is a nonzero, noninvertible function on a smooth complex variety $X$ and $J_f$ is the Jacobian ideal of $f$, then ${\rm lct}(f,J_f^2)>1$ if and only if the hypersurface defined by $f$ has rational singularities.…

The ring operations and the metric on $C(X)$ are extended to the set $\mathbb{H}_{nf}(X)$ of all nearly finite Hausdorff continuous interval valued functions and it is shown that $\mathbb{H}_{nf}(X)$ is both rationally and topologically…

We study the dynamics of towers defined by fixed points of renormalization for Feigenbaum polynomials in the complex plane with varying order \ell of the critical point. It is known that the measure of the Julia set of the Feigenbaum…

Let K be a complete, algebraically closed nonarchimedean valued field, and let f(z) be a non-constant rational function in K(z). We provide explicit bounds for the Lipschitz constant of f(z) acting on the Berkovich projective line, relative…

Consider a dominant rational self-map $f$ on a smooth projective variety $X$ defined over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$. We prove that \begin{align} \lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{h_{Y}(f^{n}(x))}{h_{H}(f^{n}(x)) } = 0, \end{align} where $h_{Y}$ is a…

The algebra of exponential fields and their extensions is developed. The focus is on ELA-fields, which are algebraically closed with a surjective exponential map. In this context, finitely presented extensions are defined, it is shown that…

In 2016, Ananyan and Hochster gave the first proof of a positive answer to Stillman's Question, which asked for a bound on the projective dimension of a graded polynomial ideal purely in terms of the number and degrees of its generators.…

When we have a morphism f : P^n -> P^n, then we have an inequality \frac{1}{\deg f} h(f(P)) +C > h(P) which provides a good upper bound of $h(P)$. However, if $f$ is a rational map, then \frac{1}{\deg f} h(f(P))+C cannot be an upper bound…

In his seminal 1961 paper, Wirsing studied how well a given transcendental real number $\xi$ can be approximated by algebraic numbers $\alpha$ of degree at most $n$ for a given positive integer $n$, in terms of the so-called naive height…
