We investigate a variant of Wirsing's problem on approximation to a real number by real algebraic numbers of degree exactly $n$. This has been studied by Bugeaud and Teulie. We improve their bounds for degrees up to $n=7$. Moreover, we…

The absolute logarithmic Weil height is well defined on the group of units of the algebraic closure of the rational numbers, modulo roots of unity, and induces a metric topology on this group. We show that the completion of this metric…

In this paper, the equidistribution theorem of Szpiro-Ullmo-Zhang about sequences of small points in an abelian variety is extended to the case of sequences of higher dimensional subvarieties. A quantitative version of this result is also…

In this survey we give an overview of recent developments on the Quantitative Subspace Theorem. In particular, we discuss a new upper bound for the number of subspaces containing the "large" solutions, obtained jointly with Roberto…

We present an elementary proof of the prime number theorem. The relative error follows a golden ratio scaling law and respects the bound obtained from the Riemann's hypothesis. The proof is derived in the framework of a scale free…

We study the question of the growth of Betti numbers of certain arithmetic varieties in tower of congruence coverings. In fact, our results are about Siegel varieties and varieties associated to orthogonal groups. We explain how a theorem…

For almost all Riemannian metrics (in the $C^\infty$ Baire sense) on a closed manifold $M^{n+1}$, $3\leq (n+1)\leq 7$, we prove that there is a sequence of closed, smooth, embedded, connected minimal hypersurfaces that is equidistributed in…

Let $K$ be an algebraic number field and $H$ the absolute Weil height. Write $c_K$ for a certain positive constant that is an invariant of $K$. We consider the question: does $K$ contain an algebraic integer $\alpha$ such that both $K =…

We prove an improvement on Schmidt's upper bound on the number of number fields of degree $n$ and absolute discriminant less than X for $6 \leq n \leq 94$. We carry this out by improving and applying a uniform bound on the number of monic…

For a reduced projective scheme over the ring of integers of a number field, the set of places over which the fibres of the scheme are not reduced is a finite set. We give an explicit upper bound for the product of the norms of places in…

A set of algebraic numbers has the Northcott property if each of its subsets of bounded Weil height is finite. Northcott's Theorem, which has many Diophantine applications, states that sets of bounded degree have the Northcott property.…

We study the asymptotic distribution of the Galois orbits of generic sequences of algebraic points of small height in a projective variety over a number field. Our main result is a generalization of Yuan's equidistribution theorem that…

Covering numbers are a powerful tool used in the development of approximation algorithms, randomized dimension reduction methods, smoothed complexity analysis, and others. In this paper we prove upper bounds on the covering number of…

We obtain inequalities involving the entropy of a positive integer and the divergence of two positive integers, respectively the entropy of an ideal and the divergence of two ideals in a ring of algebraic integers. Among the important…

The law of large numbers for the empirical density for the pairs of uniformly distributed integers with a given greatest common divisor is a classic result in number theory. In this paper, we study the large deviations of the empirical…

We prove that every isometry of between (not-necessarily orthogonal) summands of a unimodular quadratic space over a semiperfect ring can be extended an isometry of the whole quadratic space. The same result was proved by Reiter for the…

In this paper we prove that all irrational numbers from totally real cubic number fields are well approximable by rationals (i.e. the partial quotients in the continued fraction expansion of such a number are unbounded). This settles the…

In this article we will discuss a new, mostly theoretical, method for solving (zero-dimensional) polynomial systems, which lies in between Gr\"obner basis computations and the heuristic first fall degree assumption and is not based on any…

We consider multivariable polynomials over a fixed number field, linear in some of the variables. For a system of such polynomials satisfying certain technical conditions we prove the existence of search bounds for simultaneous zeros with…

In this paper, we establish the explicit lower bound estimates for the rank of universal quadratic forms in some certain families of real cubic fields under the condition of density one. The more general results that represent all multiples…
