Let $\ell$ and $p$ be odd primes. For a positive integer $\mu$ let $k_\mu$ be the ray class field of $k=\mathbb{Q}(e^{2\pi i/\ell})$ modulo $2p^\mu$. We present certain class fields $K_\mu$ of $k$ such that $k_\mu\leq K_\mu\leq k_{\mu+1}$,…

We give the general solution of three Diophantine equations in the ring of integer of the algebraic number field ${\bf Q}[{\sqr 5}]$. These equations are related to the problem of determination of the minimum distance in quasicrystals with…

We consider partial torsion fields (fields generated by a root of a division polynomial) for elliptic curves. By analysing the reduction properties of elliptic curves, and applying the Montes Algorithm, we obtain information about the ring…

We use the theory of arithmetic quotients of the Bruhat-Tits tree developed by Serre and others to obtain Dirichlet-style theorems for Diophantine approximation on global function fields. This approach allows us to find sharp values for the…

For an integral domain $R$, the {\it ring of integer-valued polynomials} over $R$ consists of all polynomials $f(X) \in R[X]$ such that $f(R) \subseteq R$. An interesting case to study is when $R$ is a Dedekind domain, in particular when…

We construct blocks of finite groups with arbitrarily large Morita Frobenius numbers, an invariant which determines the size of the minimal field of definition of the associated basic algebra. This answers a question of Benson and Kessar.…

The space of n (ordered) points on the projective line, modulo automorphisms of the line, is one of the most important and classical examples of an invariant theory quotient, and is one of the first examples given in any course. Generators…

There is a longstanding conjecture by Fr\"oberg about the Hilbert series of the ring $R/I$, where $R$ is a polynomial ring, and $I$ an ideal generated by generic forms. We prove this conjecture true in the case when $I$ is generated by a…

This is an introduction to rings and fields, written for a quarter-long undergraduate course. It includes the basic properties of ideals, modules, algebras and polynomials, the constructions of ring extensions and finite fields, some…

We consider a convenient category of "quadratic" multirings, that allows simple functorial relations with categories associated with abstract quadratic forms theories and shares many good aspects of the theories of Special Groups and of…

In this paper we provide criteria for the insolvability of the Diophantine equation $x^2+D=y^n$. This result is then used to determine the class number of the quadratic field $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-D})$. We also determine some criteria for the…

It is a classical problem to compute a minimal set of invariant polynomial generating the invariant ring of a finite group as an algebra. We present here an algorithm for the computation of minimal generating sets in the non-modular case.…

We obtain upper bounds for the torsion in the $K$-groups of the ring of integers of imaginary quadratic number fields, in terms of their discriminants.

We construct parameterized families of imaginary (resp. real) quadratic fields whose class groups have $n$-rank at least $2$.

We show that the minimal resolution of the quotient of the polynomial algebra over a field by a cointerval edge ideal can be given the structure of a DG-algebra.

For several congruence subgroups of low levels and their conjugates, we derive differential equations satisfied by the Eisenstein series of weight 4 and relate them to elliptic curves, whose associated new forms of weight 2 constitute the…

We construct a normal projective $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein surface over an algebraically closed field whose canonical ring is not finitely generated. Moreover, we provide a counterexample to the minimal model program for…

Let $g$ be a principal modulus with rational Fourier coefficients for a discrete subgroup of $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{R})$ between $\Gamma(N)$ or $\Gamma_0(N)^\dag$ for a positive integer $N$. Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field. We give…

We construct a family of ideals representing ideal classes of order 2 in quadratic number fields and show that relations between their ideal classes are governed by certain cyclic quartic extensions of the rationals.

We construct many irreducible polynomials within semigroups generated by sets of the form $S=\{x^2+c_1,\dots,x^2+c_s\}$ under composition.
