We give an explicit formula for the subalgebra zeta function of a general 3-dimensional Lie algebra over the p-adic integers $\mathbb{Z}_p$. To this end, we associate to such a Lie algebra a ternary quadratic form over $\mathbb{Z}_p$. The…

In this work, we aim to advance the development of a fractal theory for sets of integers. The core idea is to utilize the fractal structure of $p$-adic integers, where $p$ is a prime number, and compare this with conventional densities and…

In this article we study $p$-adic properties of sequences of integers (or $p$-adic integers) that satisfy a linear recurrence with constant coefficients. For such a sequence, we give an explicit approximate twisted interpolation to $\mathbb…

The finite n-th polylogarithm li_n(z) in Z/p[z] is defined as the sum on k from 1 to p-1 of z^k/k^n. We state and prove the following theorem. Let Li_k:C_p to C_p be the p-adic polylogarithms defined by Coleman. Then a certain linear…

In this summary of my talk at Strings 2016, I explain how classical dynamics on an infinite tree graph can be dual to a conformal field theory defined over the $p$-adic numbers. An informal introduction to $p$-adic numbers is followed by a…

We give conditions on a finitary endofunctor of a finitely accessible category to admit a final coalgebra. Our conditions always apply to the case of a finitary endofunctor of a locally finitely presentable (l.f.p.) category and they bring…

This article introduces a new kind of number systems on $p$-adic integers which is inspired by the well-known $3n+1$ conjecture of Lothar Collatz. A $p$-adic system is a piecewise function on $\mathbb{Z}_p$ which has branches for all…

Using the theory of coalgebra, we introduce a uniform framework for adding modalities to the language of propositional geometric logic. Models for this logic are based on coalgebras for an endofunctor on some full subcategory of the…

For a prime $p$ and a matrix $A \in \mathbb{Z}^{n \times n}$, write $A$ as $A = p (A \,\mathrm{quo}\, p) + (A \,\mathrm{rem}\, p)$ where the remainder and quotient operations are applied element-wise. Write the $p$-adic expansion of $A$ as…

We prove that the maximal dimension of a $p$-central subspace of the generic symbol $p$-algebra of prime degree $p$ is $p+1$. We do it by proving the following number theoretic fact: let $\{s_1,\dots,s_{p+1}\}$ be $p+1$ distinct nonzero…
