We prove that for a positive integer $c$ and any given $\varepsilon$, $0<\varepsilon<1$, the number $N(c)$ of equations $c=a+b$, $a<b$, with positive coprime integers $a$ and $b$, which satisfy the inequality $$c <…
Let ${\rm rad}(n)$ denote the product of distinct prime factors of an integer $n\geq 1$. The celebrated $abc$ conjecture asks whether every solution to the equation $a+b=c$ in triples of coprime integers $(a,b,c)$ must satisfy ${\rm…
In this paper, we show the Hasse principle for the character group of a finitely generated field over the rational number field. By applying this result, we obtain an algebraic proof of unramified class field theory of arithmetical schemes.
For every $a\geq1$ we give a recursion algorithm of building of set of solutions of equations of the form $t(x+a)=t(x)$ and $t(x+a)=1-t(x),$ where $\{t(n)\}$ is Thue-Morse sequence. We pose an open problem and two conjectures.
We study the integral Brauer--Manin obstruction for affine diagonal cubic surfaces, which we employ to construct the first counterexamples to the integral Hasse principle in this setting. We then count in three natural ways how such…
Let A be an arbitrary integral domain of characteristic 0 which is finitely generated over Z. We consider Thue equations $F(x,y)=b$ with unknowns x,y from A and hyper- and superelliptic equations $f(x)=by^m$ with unknowns from A, where the…
A variant of the Erd\H{o}s-S\'os conjecture, posed by Havet, Reed, Stein and Wood, states that every graph with minimum degree at least $\lfloor 2k/3 \rfloor$ and maximum degree at least $k$ contains a copy of every tree with $k$ edges.…
Let $a_{i1}x_1+\cdots+a_{ik}x_k=0$, $i\in[m]$ be a balanced homogeneous system of linear equations with coefficients $a_{ij}$ from a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. We say that a solution $x=(x_1,\ldots, x_k)$ with $x_1,\ldots, x_k\in…
In this paper, we study the local points of the twist of X_0(N) by a polyquadratic field and give an algorithm to produce such curves which has local points everywhere. Then we investigate violations of the Hasse Principle for these curves…
When $s\ge k\ge 3$ and $n_1,\ldots ,n_k$ are large natural numbers, denote by $A_{s,k}(\mathbf n)$ the number of solutions in non-negative integers $\mathbf x$ to the system \[ x_1^j+\ldots +x_s^j=n_j\quad (1\le j\le k). \] Under…
We give a revised version of Schmidt's treatment of forms in many variables, which allows us to prove a Hasse principle under more lenient conditions on the number of variables than what had previously been thought possible with these…
This paper contributes to the conjecture of R. Scott and R. Styer which asserts that for any fixed relatively prime positive integers $a,b$ and $c$ all greater than 1 there is at most one solution to the equation $a^x+b^y=c^z$ in positive…
Let $\alpha$ be an algebraic number of degree $d\ge 3$ having at most one real conjugate and let $K$ be the algebraic number field ${\mathbf Q}(\alpha)$. For any unit $\epsilon$ of $K$ such that ${\mathbf Q}(\alpha\epsilon)=K$, we consider…
This paper applies the modular approach to obtain effectively computable bounds for Fermat-type equations over number fields, while also discussing the differences and obstructions that arise when considering such equations over totally…
We use Brauer-Manin obstructions to explain failures of the integral Hasse principle and strong approximation away from infinity for the equation x^2+y^2+z^k=m with fixed integers k>=3 and m. Under Schinzel's hypothesis (H), we prove that…
Let $A$ be a sufficiently dense subset of a finite field $\mathbb F_q$ or a finite, cyclic ring $\mathbb Z/ N\mathbb Z$. Assuming that $q$ and $N$ have no small prime divisors, we show that generalised Fermat equations have the expected…
We generalize the heuristic parameter choice rule of Hanke-Raus for quadratic regularization to general variational regularization for solving linear as well as nonlinear ill-posed inverse problems in Banach spaces. Under source conditions…
Let $(A_n)_{n\in \mathbb{N}}, (B_n)_{n\in \mathbb{N}} \in \mathbb{Z}^{\mathbb{N}}$ be two linear-recurrent sequences that meet a dominant root condition and a few more technical requirements. We show that the split family of Thue equations…
Recent work of Freitas and Siksek showed that an asymptotic version of Fermat's Last Theorem holds for many totally real fields. Later this result was extended by Deconinck to generalized Fermat equations of the form $Ax^p +By^p +Cz^p = 0$,…
Using the circle method in combination with lattice point counting arguments, we show that for almost all homogeneous diophantine equations of additive type and degree $k$ in more than $4k$ variables, the Local-Global principle holds true.…
