Let $\mathbb{K}$ be a number field of degree $n$ over $\mathbb{Q}$. Let $\widehat{\mathbb{A}}$ be the set of integers of $\mathbb{K}$ which are primitive over $\mathbb{Q}$ and $I(\mathbb{K})$ be its index. Gunji and McQuillan defined the…

Polynomials and elements over finite fields exhibit closely related algebraic structures, and many properties defined for elements extend naturally to polynomials. The concepts of order and $\mathbb{F}_q$-Order for elements have been…

Let $q>2$ be a prime power and $f={\tt x}^{q-2}+t{\tt x}^{q^2-q-1}$, where $t\in\Bbb F_q^*$. It was recently conjectured that $f$ is a permutation polynomial of $\Bbb F_{q^2}$ if and only if one of the following holds: (i) $t=1$, $q\equiv…

We study rationality problem for the quotient of $\mathbb{C}^4$ by a finite primitive group $G$ of Type (I). We prove that this quotient is a rational variety for any such $G$.

Recently N. Levin (Comp. Math. 127 (2001), 1--21) proved the Tate conjecture for ordinary cubic fourfolds over finite fields. In this paper we prove the Tate conjecture for self-products of ordinary cubic fourfolds. Our proof is based on…

Let $F=\mathbb{F}_{q^m}$, $m>6$, $n$ a positive integer, and $f=p/q$ with $p$, $q$ co-prime irreducible polynomials in $F[x]$ and deg$(p)$ $+$ deg$(q)= n$. A sufficient condition has been obtained for the existence of primitive pairs…

Most integers are composite and most univariate polynomials over a finite field are reducible. The Prime Number Theorem and a classical result of Gau{\ss} count the remaining ones, approximately and exactly. For polynomials in two or more…

Let $D$ denote the set of directions determined by the graph of a polynomial $f$ of $\mathbb{F}_q[x]$, where $q$ is a power of the prime $p$. If $D$ is contained in a multiplicative subgroup $M$ of $\mathbb{F}_q^\times$, then by a result of…

According to Casas Alvero conjecture, if a one variable polynomial of degree $n$ over a field of characteristic 0 is not prime with each of the $n-1$ first derivees, then it is of the form $c (X-r)^{n}$. Let $p$ be a prime number and an…

In this note, we prove strong convergence of $q$-Gaussians with respect to a parameter $q$, which implies the spectrum of any self-adjoint non-commutative polynomial in $q$-Gaussians is continuously deformed with respect to $q$. With…

We say that a monic polynomial $f(x)\in {\mathbb Z}[x]$ of degree $N$ is monogenic if $f(x)$ is irreducible over ${\mathbb Q}$ and $\{1,\theta,\theta^2,\ldots ,\theta^{N-1}\}$ is a basis for ${\mathbb Z}_K$, the ring of integers of…

The L'vov-Kaplansky conjecture states that the image of a multilinear noncommutative polynomial $f$ in the matrix algebra $M_n(K)$ is a vector space for every $n \in {\mathbb N}$. We prove this conjecture for the case where $f$ has degree…

Let K be a number field and let A be its ring of integers. Let G be a connected, noncommutative, absolutely almost simple algebraic K-group. If the K-rank of G equals 2, then G(A[t]) is not finitely presented.

A number field $K$ is called primitive if $\mathbb Q$ and $K$ are the only subfields of $K$. Let $X$ be a nice curve over $\mathbb Q$ of genus $g$. A point $P$ of degree $d$ on $X$ is called primitive if the field of definition $\mathbb…

The stable 4-genus of a knot K in 3-space is the limiting value of g_4(nK)/n, where g_4 denotes the 4-genus and n goes to infinity. This induces a seminorm on CQ, the concordance group tensored with the rational numbers. Basic properties of…
