In this paper we study the integrals of fractional parts of given functions, and develop some new tools to understand the behaviour of prime differences. We demonstrate how simply some seemingly difficult conjectures related to prime…

We prove several bounds on the number of incidences between two sets of multivariate polynomials of bounded degree over finite fields. From these results, we deduce bounds on incidences between points and multivariate polynomials, extending…

A class of parametric functions formed by alternating compositions of multivariate polynomials and rectification style monomial maps is studied (the layer-wise exponents are treated as fixed hyperparameters and are not optimized). For this…

We tabulate polynomials in Z[t] with a given factorization partition, bad reduction entirely within a given set of primes, and satisfying auxiliary conditions associated to 0, 1, and infinity. We explain how these sets of polynomials are of…

In 2005, Kayal suggested that Schoof's algorithm for counting points on elliptic curves over finite fields might yield an approach to factor polynomials over finite fields in deterministic polynomial time. We present an exposition of his…

We establish bounds on a finite separable extension of function fields in terms of the relative class number, thus reducing the problem of classifying extensions with a fixed relative class number to a finite computation. We also solve the…

In difference algebra, summability arises as a basic problem upon which rests the effective solution of other more elaborate problems, such as creative telescoping problems and the computation of Galois groups of difference equations. In…

The problem of distributed matrix multiplication with straggler tolerance over finite fields is considered, focusing on field sizes for which previous solutions were not applicable (for instance, the field of two elements). We employ…

We obtain new upper bounds on the number of distinct roots of lacunary polynomials over finite fields. Our focus will be on polynomials for which there is a large gap between consecutive exponents in the monomial expansion.

In this article we present method of solving some additive problems with primes. The method may be employed to the Goldbach-Euler conjecture and the twin primes conjecture. The presented method also makes it possible to obtain some…

We consider some combinatorial problems on matrix polynomials over finite fields. Using results from control theory we give a proof of a result of Helmke, Jordan and Lieb on the number of linear unimodular matrix polynomials over a finite…

A well-known generalisation of positional numeration systems is the case where the base is the residue class of $x$ modulo a given polynomial $f(x)$ with coefficients in (for example) the integers, and where we try to construct finite…

Arithmetic combinatorics is often concerned with the problem of bounding the behaviour of arbitrary finite sets in a group or ring with respect to arithmetic operations such as addition or multiplication. Similarly, combinatorial geometry…

The Theory of Functional Connections (TFC) is most often used for constraints over the field of real numbers. However, previous works have shown that it actually extends to arbitrary fields. The evidence for these claims is restricting…

We present a survey on Weil sums in which an additive character of a finite field $F$ is applied to a binomial whose individual terms (monomials) become permutations of $F$ when regarded as functions. Then we indicate how these Weil sums…

We study two polynomial counting questions in arithmetic statistics via a combination of Fourier analytic and arithmetic methods. First, we obtain new quantitative forms of Hilbert's Irreducibility Theorem for degree $n$ polynomials $f$…

We introduce a finite version of free probability and show the link between recent results using polynomial convolutions and the traditional theory of free probability. One tool for accomplishing this is a seemingly new transformation that…

In the first part of this expository paper, we present and discuss the interplay of Dirichlet polynomials in some classical problems of number theory, notably the Lindel\"of Hypothesis. We review some typical properties of their means and…

Applying Baaz's Generalization Method and a new technique to, respectively, proofs and denumerable simple graphs, diverse arithmetical patterns are observed. In particular, sufficient conditions for a number to be a divisor of a Fermat…

We introduce a collection of polynomials $F_N$, associated to each positive integer $N$, whose divisibility properties yield a reformulation of the Goldbach conjecture. While this reformulation certainly does not lead to a resolution of the…
