Let $p$ be a prime and let $g(p)$ be the least primitive root modulo $p$. We prove that for any $\epsilon>0$ and $p$ large enough the bound \begin{align} g(p)\ll p^{\frac{1}{4\sqrt{e}}+\epsilon} \nonumber \end{align} holds for most prime…

Let $f(z)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty a(n)q^n\in S^{\text{new}}_ k (\Gamma_0(N))$ be a newform with squarefree level $N$ that does not have complex multiplication. For a prime $p$, define $\theta_p\in[0,\pi]$ to be the angle for which $a(p)=2p^{( k…

This paper is continuation of the paper "Primitive roots in quadratic field". We consider an analogue of Artin's primitive root conjecture for algebraic numbers which is not a unit in real quadratic fields. Given such an algebraic number,…

Let F be a totally real number field of odd degree. We prove several purely local criteria for the asymptotic Fermat's Last Theorem to hold over F, and also for the non-existence of solutions to the unit equation over F. For example, if 2…

The purpose of this paper is to introduce basic concepts that are fundamental in the examination of composite moduli, while avoiding the notoriously difficult problem of prime-factorization. We introduce a new class of numbers, called…

Let $p$ be an odd prime number. In this paper, we are concerned with the behaviour of Fermat curves defined over ${\bf Q}$ given by equations $ax^p+by^p+cz^p=0$, with respect to the local-global Hasse principle. It is conjectured that there…

Let $F$ be a totally real number field, $p$ a rational prime, and $\chi$ a finite order totally odd abelian character of Gal$(\bar{F}/F)$ such that $\chi(\mathfrak{p})=1$ for some $\mathfrak{p}|p$. Motivated by a conjecture of Stark, Gross…

In a 2011 paper published in the journal "Asian Journal of Algebra"(see reference[1]), the authors consider, among other equations,the diophantine equations 2xy=n(x+y) and 3xy=n(x+y). For the first equation, with n being an odd positive…

If $p$ is an odd prime, then we prove that $\e(H_2(G,\mathbb{Z})) \mid p\ \e(G)$ for $p$ groups of class 7. We prove the same for $p$ groups of class at most $p+1$ with $\e(Z(G))=p$. We also prove Schurs conjecture if $\e(G/Z(G))$ is $2,3$…

We solve the Diophantine equations $x^5 + y^5 = dz^p$ with $d=2, 3$ for a set of prime numbers of density 1/4, 1/2, respectively. The method consists in relating a possible solution to another Diophantine equation and solving the later by…

A prime $p$ is a Wolstenholme prime if $\binom{2p}{p}\equiv2$ mod $p^4$, or, equivalently, if $p$ divides the numerator of the Bernoulli number $B_{p-3}$; a Vandiver prime $p$ is one that divides the Euler number $E_{p-3}$. Only two…

As a natural generalization of the Legendre symbol, the $q$-th power residue symbol $(a/p)_q$ is defined for primes $p$ and $q$ with $p\equiv 1 \bmod q$. In this paper, we generalize the second supplementary law by providing an explicit…

In this paper, we mainly prove two congruence conjecture of Z.-W. Sun. Let $p\equiv3\pmod 4$ be a prime. Then $$\sum_{k=0}^{p-1}\frac{\binom{2k}k^2}{8^k}\equiv-\sum_{k=0}^{p-1}\frac{\binom{2k}k^2}{(-16)^k}\pmod{p^3}.$$ And for any odd prime…
