We establish an asymptotic formula for the number of integer solutions to the Markoff-Hurwitz equation \[ x_{1}^{2}+x_{2}^{2}+\ldots+x_{n}^{2}=ax_{1}x_{2}\ldots x_{n}+k. \] When $n\geq4$ the previous best result is by Baragar (1998) that…
In this paper we investigate the distribution of the set of values of a linear map at integer points on a quadratic surface. In particular we show that this set is dense in the range of the linear map subject to certain algebraic conditions…
Let $(S,\mathfrak n)$ be a regular local ring and $f$ a non-zero element of $\mathfrak n^2$. A theorem due to Kn\"orrer states that there are finitely many isomorphism classes of maximal Cohen-Macaulay $R=S/(f)$-modules if and only if the…
We sharpen to nearly optimal the known asymptotic and explicit bounds for the number of $\mathbb{F}_q$-rational points on a geometrically irreducible hypersurface over a (large) finite field. The proof involves a Bertini-type probabilistic…
The notions of (metric) hypersurface data were introduced in [Mars,2013] as a tool to analyze, from an abstract viewpoint, hypersurfaces of arbitrary signature in pseudo-riemannian manifolds. In this paper, general geometric properties of…
Surface integrals on density level sets often appear in asymptotic results in nonparametric level set estimation (such as for confidence regions and bandwidth selection). Also surface integrals can be used to describe the shape of level…
We show that the density $\mu$ of the Smith normal form (SNF) of a random integer matrix exists and equals a product of densities $\mu_{p^s}$ of SNF over $\mathbb{Z}/p^s\mathbb{Z}$ with $p$ a prime and $s$ some positive integer. Our…
We study points of density 1/2 of sets of finite perimeter in infinite-dimensional Gaussian spaces and prove that, as in the finite-dimensional theory, the surface measure is concentrated on this class of points. Here density 1/2 is…
Kneser's theorem in the integers asserts that denoting by $ \underline{\mathrm{d}}$ the lower asymptotic density, if $\underline{\mathrm{d}}(X_1+\cdots+X_k)<\sum_{i=1}^k\underline{\mathrm{d}}(X_i)$ then the sumset $X_1+\cdots+X_k$ is…
In the first part of this paper, we establish some results around generalized Borel's Theorem. As an application, in the second part, we construct example of smooth surface of degree $d\geq 19$ in $\mathbb{CP}^3$ whose complements is…
We extend work of Heath-Brown and Salberger, based on the determinant method, to provide a uniform upper bound for the number of integral points of bounded height on an affine surface, which are subject to a polynomial congruence condition.…
We prove a sharp inequality for hypersurfaces in the n-dimensional Anti-deSitter-Schwarzschild manifold for general n greater or equal to 3. This inequality generalizes the classical Minkowski inequality for surfaces in the three…
In this paper, we compute the natural density of the set of k x n integer matrices that can be extended to an invertible n x n matrix over the integers. As a corollary, we find the density of rectangular matrices with Hermite normal form [O…
Here we prove that the Hilbert-Kunz mulitiplicity of a quadric hypersurface of dimension $d$ and odd characteristic $p\geq 2d-4$ is bounded below by $1+m_d$, where $m_d$ is the $d^{th}$ coefficient in the expansion of…
This paper investigates the stratification of the discriminant hypersurface associated with a univariate polynomial via the number of its distinct complex roots. We introduce two novel approaches different from the one based on…
We give a formula for the smallest degree of a non-Koszul relation on $x_1^{d_1}, \ldots, x_n^{d_n}, (x_1+\ldots +x_n)^{d_{n+1}}\in k[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ (under certain assumptions on $d_1, \ldots, d_{n+1}$) where $k$ is a field of positive…
In this note, we study various measures of irrationality for hypersurfaces in projective spaces which were recently proposed by Bastianelli, De Poi, Ein, Lazarsfeld and Ullery. In particular, we answer the question raised by Bastianelli…
We study the plus-pure threshold (ppt) of hypersurfaces in mixed characteristic. We show that the ppt limits to the $F$-pure threshold (fpt) as we ramify the base DVR. Additionally, we show that analogs of some positive characteristic…
For integers $k$, we consider the affine cubic surface $V_{k}$ given by $M({\bf x})=x_{1}^2 + x_{2}^2 +x_{3}^2 -x_{1}x_{2}x_{3}=k$. We show that for almost all $k$ the Hasse Principle holds, namely that $V_{k}(\mathbb{Z})$ is non-empty if…
Abstract: The number of points $x=(x_1 ,x_2 ,...x_n)$ that lie in an integer cube $C$ in $R^n$ and satisfy the constraints $\sum_j h_{ij}(x_j )=s_i ,1\le i\le d$ is approximated by an Edgeworth-corrected Gaussian formula based on the…
