We give an explicit upper bound for the number of equivalence classes of binary forms with rational integral coefficients of given degree and given discriminant, and with given splitting field. Further, we give an explicit upper bound for…

We study positive bilinear forms on a Hilbert space which are neither not necessarily bounded nor induced by some positive operator. We show when different families of bilinear forms can be described as a generalized effect algebra. In…

We determine the asymptotic density $\delta_k$ of the set of ordered $k$-tuples $(n_1,...,n_k)\in \N^k, k\ge 2$, such that there exists no prime power $p^a$, $a\ge 1$, appearing in the canonical factorization of each $n_i$, $1\le i\le k$,…

For $k \geq 2$, we consider the number $A_k(Z)$ of positive integers $n \leq Z$ such that both $n$ and $n+1$ are $k$-free. We prove an asymptotic formula $A_k(Z) = c_k Z + O(Z^{14/(9k)+\epsilon})$, where the error term improves upon…

Consider the polynomial $f(x,y)=xy^k+C$ for $k\geq 2$ and any nonzero integer constant $C$. We derive an asymptotic formula for the $k$-free values of $f(x,y)$ when $x, y\leq H$. We also prove a similar result for the $k$-free values of…

An iterative construction of higher order Einstein tensors for a maximally Gauss-Bonnet extended gravitational Lagrangian was introduced in a previous paper. Here the formalism is extended to non-factorisable metrics in arbitrary ($d+1$)…

Let a and b be non-zero rational numbers that are multiplicatively independent. We study the natural density of the set of primes p for which the subgroup of the multiplicative group of the finite field with p elements generated by (a\mod…

We prove the following theorem: Fibered Power Theorem: Let $X\rar B$ be a smooth family of positive dimensional varieties of general type, with $B$ irreducible. Then there exists an integer $n>0$, a positive dimensional variety of general…

In this paper, we build the global determinant method of Salberger by Arakelov geometry explicitly. As an application, we study the dependence on the degree of the number of rational points of bounded height in plane curves. We will also…

If A is a set of nonnegative integers containing 0, then there is a unique nonempty set B of nonnegative integers such that every positive integer can be written in the form a+b, where a\in A and b\in B, in an even number of ways. We…

Let $C(n,p)$ be the set of $p$-compositions of an integer $n$, i.e., the set of $p$-tuples $\bm{\alpha}=(\alpha_1,...,\alpha_p)$ of nonnegative integers such that $\alpha_1+...+\alpha_p=n$, and $\mathbf{x}=(x_1,...,x_p)$ a vector of…

We obtain an asymptotic formula for a weighted sum over cuspidal eigenvalues in a specific region, for $\SL_2$ over a totally real number field $F$, with discrete subgroup of Hecke type $\Gamma_0(I)$ for a non-zero ideal $I$ in the ring of…

Let $K$ be a number field, and let $G$ be a finitely generated subgroup of $K^\times$. Without relying on the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis we prove an asymptotic formula for the number of primes $\mathfrak p$ of $K$ such that the order of…

To begin, we find certain formulas $Q(k,\alpha)= G_1^k(\alpha) G_2^k(\alpha)$, for $k = -1, 0, 1,...,9$. These yield that part of the total separability probability, $P(k,\alpha)$, for generalized (real, complex, quaternionic,\ldots)…

This paper applies the recently axiomatized Optimum Information Principle (minimize the Kullback-Leibler information subject to all relevant information) to nonparametric density estimation, which provides a theoretical foundation as well…

We introduce and study the notion of k-divisible elements in a non-commutative probability space. A k-divisible element is a (non-commutative) random variable whose n-th moment vanishes whenever n is not a multiple of k. First, we consider…

A challenging problem is to find an algorithm to decide whether a morphism is k-power-free. We provide such an algorithm when k >= 3 for uniform morphisms showing that in such a case, contrarily to the general case, there exist finite…

The notion of a complete type can be generalized in a natural manner to allow assigning a value in an arbitrary Boolean algebra B to each formula. We show some basic results regarding the effect of the properties of B on the behavior of…

We establish effective versions of Oppenheim's conjecture for generic inhomogeneous quadratic forms. We prove such results for fixed shift vectors and generic quadratic forms. When the shift is rational we prove a counting result which…

We prove that for any fixed integer \( n \geq 3 \) and nonzero integer \( m \), the proportion of integral binary forms of degree \( n \) that represent \( m \) tends to zero as the height tends to infinity. In fact, almost all such forms…
