We study multiplicities of jumping numbers of multiplier ideals in a smooth variety of arbitrary dimension. We prove that the multiplicity function is a quasi-polynomial, hence proving that the Poincar\'e series is a rational function. We…

Let $b \geq 2$ be an integer base with prime factors $p_1, \ldots, p_s$. In this paper we study sequences of "$b$-adic valuations" and last nonzero digits in $b$-adic expansions of the values $f(n) = (f_1(n), \ldots, f_s(n))$, where each…

In this short note, we establish some identities containing sums of binomials with coefficients satisfying third order linear recursive relations. As a result and in particular, we obtain general forms of earlier identities involving…

In this paper, we consider sequences of polynomials that satisfy differential--difference recurrences. Our interest is motivated by the fact that polynomials satisfying such recurrences frequently appear as generating polynomials of integer…

Let $p>3$ be a prime, and let $a$ be a rational p-adic integer with $a\not\equiv 0\pmod p$. In this paper we establish congruences for $$\sum_{k=1}^{(p-1)/2}\frac{\binom ak\binom{-1-a}k}k, \quad\sum_{k=0}^{(p-1)/2}k\binom ak\binom{-1-a}k…

We study the roots of a random polynomial over the field of p-adic numbers. For a random monic polynomial with coefficients in $\mathbb{Z}_p$, we obtain an asymptotic formula for the factorial moments of the number of roots of this…

Let $p$ be a prime. We discuss $p$-adic properties of various arithmetical functions related to the coefficients of modular form and generating functions. Modular forms are considered as a tool of solving arithmetical problems. Examples of…

Given a prime number $p$, the study of divisibility properties of a sequence $c(n)$ has two contending approaches: $p$-adic valuations and superconcongruences. The former searches for the highest power of $p$ dividing $c(n)$, for each $n$;…

We show that the coefficients of the power series expansion of the principal period of a Laurent polynomial satisfy strong congruence properties. These congruences play a key role in the explicit p-adic analytic continuation of the unit…

A thorough analysis is made of the Fourier coefficients for vector-valued modular forms associated to three-dimensional irreducible representations of the modular group. In particular, the following statement is verified for all but a…

We count algebraic points of bounded height and degree on the graphs of certain functions analytic on the unit disk, obtaining a bound which is polynomial in the degree and in the logarithm of the multiplicative height. We combine this work…

We consider polynomial equations, or systems of polynomial equations, with integer coefficients, modulo prime numbers $p$. We offer an elementary approach based on a counting method. The outcome is a weak form of the Lang-Weil lower bound…

We formulate a conjectural p-adic analogue of Borel's theorem relating regulators for higher K-groups of number fields to special values of the corresponding zeta-functions, using syntomic regulators and p-adic L-functions. We also…

We shall make a slight improvement to a result of p-adic logarithms which gives a nontrivial upper bound for the exponent of p dividing the Fermat quotient x^{p-1}-1.

Let $K$ be a number field. We show that, up to allowing a finite set of denominators in the partial quotients, it is possible to define algorithms for $\mathfrak P$-adic continued fractions satisfying the finiteness property on $K$ for…
