Fix $k,s,n\in \mathbb N$, and consider non-zero integers $c_1,\ldots ,c_s$, not all of the same sign. Provided that $s\ge k(k+1)$, we establish a Hasse principle for the existence of lines having integral coordinates lying on the affine…

The abc conjecture, one of the most famous open problems in number theory, claims that three positive integers satisfying a+b=c cannot simultaneously have significant repetition among their prime factors; in particular, the product of the…

We prove the Hasse principle and weak approximation for varieties defined over number fields by the nonsingular intersection of pairs of quadratic forms in 8 variables. The argument develops work of Colliot-Thelene, Sansuc and…

We introduce a framework within which a large class of joint equidistribution problems can be studied and resolved with effective error terms. This involves proving a higher dimensional and $\mu$-analogue of the Erd\"{o}s-Tur\'{a}n…

We study ``forms of the Fermat equation'' over an arbitrary field $k$, i.e. homogenous equations of degree $m$ in $n$ unknowns that can be transformed into the Fermat equation $X_1^m+...+X_n^m$ by a suitable linear change of variables over…

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…

Take complex numbers $a_j,b_j$, $(j=0,1,2)$ such that $c\neq0$ and {\rm rank} ( {ccc} a_{0} & a_{1} & a_{2} b_{0} & b_{1} & b_{2} )=2. We show that if the following functional equation of Fermat type…

In response to a question of B. Poonen, we exhibit for each global field k an algebraic curve over k which violates the Hasse Principle. In fact we can find such examples among Atkin-Lehner twists of certain elliptic modular curves and --…

We establish the analytic Hasse principle for Diophantine systems consisting of one diagonal form of degree $k$ and one general form of degree $d$, where $d$ is smaller than $k$. By employing a hybrid method that combines ideas from the…

The Thue-Siegel method is applied to derive an upper bound for the number of solutions to Thue's equation $F(x,y) = 1$ where $F$ is a quartic diagonalizable form with negative discriminant. Computation is used in this argument to handle…

The Hasse principle and weak approximation is established for equations of the shape P(t)=N(x_1,x_2,x_3,x_4), where P is an irreducible quadratic polynomial in one variable and N is a norm form associated to a quartic extension of the…

We establish the Hasse principle (local-global principle) in the context of the Baum-Connes conjecture with coefficients. We illustrate this principle with the discrete group $GL(2,F)$ where $F$ is any global field.

We prove general equidistribution statements (both conditional and unconditional) relating to the Fourier coefficients of arithmetically normalized holomorphic Hecke cusp forms $f_1,\ldots,f_k$ without complex multiplication, of equal…

Within the scope of elementary number theory, we prove that, as the main result, if $1 \leq x < y < z$ are integers such that at least one of $y, z, x+y$ is prime then $x^{n}+y^{n} \neq z^{n}$ for every odd integer $n \geq 3$. This result…

We consider quantum symmetric algebras, FRT bialgebras and, more generally, intertwining algebras for pairs of Hecke symmetries which represent quantum hom-spaces. The paper makes an attempt to investigate Koszulness and Gorensteinness of…

For a permutation $\pi$ in the symmetric group $S_n$ let the {\it total degree} be its valency in the Hasse diagram of the strong Bruhat order on $S_n$, and let the {\it down degree} be the number of permutations which are covered by $\pi$…

Let $(a,a+d,a+2d)$ be an arithmetic progression of positive integers. The following statements are proved: (1) If $a\mid 2d$, then $(a, a+d, a+2d)\in\mdeg(\Tame(\mathbb{C}^3))$. (2) If $a\nmid 2d$, then, except for arithmetic progressions…

By means of elementary conditions on coefficients, we isolate a large class of Fermat-like Diophantine equations that are not partition regular, the simplest examples being $x^n+y^m=z^k$ with $k\notin\{n,m\}$.

We expand Conlon's random algebraic construction to show that for any odd number $k \geq 3$ exists a natural number $c_k$ (the same as Conlon's) such that $\operatorname{ex}(n^a,n,\theta_{k,c_k}) = \Omega_{k,a}((n^{1 + a})^{\frac{k +…
