As an expansion of complex numbers, the quaternions show close relations to numerous physically fundamental concepts. In spite of that, the didactic potential provided by quaternion interrelationships in formulating physical laws are hardly…
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.…
We give a new proof for a theorem of Ehrhart regarding the quasi-polynomiality of the function that counts the number of integer points in the integral dilates of a rational polytope. The proof involves a geometric bijection,…
Ramanujan's reciprocity theorem may be considered as a three-variable extension of Jacobi's triple product identity. Using the method of $q$-partial differential equations, we extend Ramanujan's reciprocity theorem to a seven-variable…
Hilbert's Irreducibility Theorem is a cornerstone that joins areas of analysis and number theory. Both the genesis and genius of its proof involved combining real analysis and combinatorics. We try to expose the motivations that led Hilbert…
Given a vector space with two multiplications, one commutative the other anticommutative, possibly connected by a distributive law, the depolarization principle allows to look at this triplet through a single nonassociative multiplication.…
In this article formulas for the quantum product of a rational surface are given, and used to give an algebro-geometric proof of the associativity of the quantum product for strict Del Pezzo surfaces, those for which $-K$ is very ample. An…
The main result of the paper is a reciprocity law which proves that compatible systems of semisimple, abelian mod $p$ representations (of arbitrary dimension) of absolute Galois groups of number fields, arise from Hecke characters. In the…
On a Riemann surface there are relations among the periods of holomorphic differential forms, called Riemann's relations. If one looks carefully in Riemann's proof, one notices that he uses iterated integrals. What I have done in this paper…
Legendre published the first attempted proof of the law of Quadratic Reciprocity. But, in its final form (1797), it had a gap. Some 125 years later Herman Teege published the first rigorous proof of the unproven hypothesis which formed that…
These expository lectures focus on the distribution of zeros of the Riemann zeta function. The topics include the prime number theorem, the Riemann hypothesis, mean value theorems, and random matrix models.
In this article we present the history of auxiliary primes used in proofs of reciprocity laws from the quadratic to Artin's reciprocity law. We also show that the gap in Legendre's proof can be closed with a simple application of Gauss's…
The representation theory of the group U(1,q) is discussed in detail because of its possible application in a quaternion version of the Salam-Weinberg theory. As a consequence, from purely group theoretical arguments we demonstrate that the…
The goal of this paper is to present an algebraic approach to the basic results of the theory of linear recurrence relations. This approach is based on the ideas from the theory of representations of one endomorphisms (a special case of…
A recent paper [R22] established "Frobenius reciprocity" as a bijection $t$ between certain symplectically reduced spaces (which need not be manifolds), and conjectured: 1{\deg}) $t$ is a diffeomorphism when these spaces are endowed with…
A multiplication on persistence diagrams is introduced by means of Schubert calculus. The key observation behind this multiplication comes from the fact that the representation space of persistence modules has the structure of the Schubert…
In this paper, for coprime numbers p and q we consider the well known Dedekind sums S(p,q) First, we give an improvement of the proof given by H. Rademacher and A. Whiteman, and we construct a new arithmetical proof for the reciprocity law
We present a creative reimagining of Zolotarev's classical proof of the Law of Quadratic Reciprocity.
This note aims to investigate the tensor product of two given Hilbert quasi *-algebras and its properties. The construction proposed in this note turns out to be again a Hilbert quasi *-algebra, thus interesting representability properties…
We use a function field version of the circle method to prove that a positive proportion of elements in $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ are representable as a sum of three cubes of minimal degree from $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$, assuming a suitable form of the…
