By means of the Hardy-Littlewood method, we apply a new mean value theorem for exponential sums to confirm the truth, over the rational numbers, of the Hasse principle for pairs of diagonal cubic forms in thirteen or more variables.
In a recent work, the present author generalized a fundamental result of Gauss related to quadratic reciprocity, and also showed that the above result of Gauss is equivalent to a special case of a well-known result of Sylvester related to…
Inspired by a recent preprint of N. Curien, we provided what may be a new and elementary proof of the Law of Large Numbers.
We give a short proof of a recently established Hardy-type inequality due to Keller, Pinchover, and Pogorzelski together with its optimality. Moreover, we identify the remainder term which makes it into an identity.
We compute the average size of $\mathrm{Cl}_F[2]$ in the family of cubic fields $F = \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt[3]{n})$. Specifically, as $F$ varies over the subfamily of wildly (resp. tamely) ramified fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt[3]{n})$, the average…
In this note we first give a new bound on $e_{HK}(\sim)$ the Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity of invariant rings, by the help of the Noether's bound. Then, we simplify, extend and present applications of the reciprocity formulae due to L. Smith.…
Recently, Andrews, Hirschhorn and Sellers have proven congruences modulo 3 for four types of partitions using elementary series manipulations. In this paper, we generalize their congruences using arithmetic properties of certain quadratic…
Recursion formulae are derived for the calculation of two centre matrix elements of a radial function in relativistic quantum mechanics. The recursions are obtained between not necessarily diagonal radial eigensates using arbitrary radial…
We give a short proof -- not relying on ideal classes or the geometry of numbers -- of a known criterion for quadratic orders to possess unique factorization.
This paper proves the Hasse principle and weak approximation for varieties defined by the smooth intersection of three quadratics in at least 19 variables, over arbitrary number fields.
The cyclic relation obtained in a study by Hirose, Murakami, and the first-named author, is a wide class of relations, which includes the well-known cyclic sum formula for multiple zeta and zeta-star values, and the derivation relation for…
In this note, we give an elementary proof of the following classical fact. Any positive definite ternary quadratic form over the rational numbers fails to represent infinitely many positive integers. For any ternary quadratic form (positive…
Given a nonnegative integer $m$ and a finite collection ${\mathcal A}$ of linear forms on ${\mathbb Q}^d$, the arrangement of affine hyperplanes in ${\mathbb Q}^d$ defined by the equations $\alpha(x) = k$ for $\alpha \in {\mathcal A}$ and…
We present a proof of the generalized Kramers-Pasternack relation using the hyper-radial equation approach. Following Kramers' method, we manipulate the radial equation by multiplying it with an expression closely related to terms in the…
We generalize a classical reciprocity law due to R\'edei using our recently developed description of the $2$-torsion of class groups of multiquadratic fields. This result is then used to prove a variety of new reflection principles for…

In the paper "The universal Kummer threefold", Q. Ren, S. Sam, G. Schrader, and B. Sturmfels (arXiv:1208.1229), conjectured equations for the universal Kummer variety in genus 3 case. Though, most of these equations are obtained from the…
In this paper we completely solve a simple quartic family of Thue equations over $\mathbb{C}(T)$. Specifically, we apply the ABC-Theorem to find all solutions $(x,y) \in \mathbb{C}[T] \times \mathbb{C}[T]$ to the set of Thue equations…
We searched up to height $10^7$ for rational points on diagonal quartic surfaces. The computations fill several gaps in earlier lists computed by Pinch, Swinnerton-Dyer, and Bright.
We present a method for calculating ab initio interatomic forces which scales quadratically with the size of the system and provides a physically transparent representation of the force in terms of the spatial variation of the electronic…
