We define a new class of sets -- stable sets -- of primes in number fields. For example, Chebotarev sets $P_{M/K}(\sigma)$, with $M/K$ Galois and $\sigma \in \Gal(M/K)$, are very often stable. These sets have positive (but arbitrary small)…

Assume that $K$ is a field and $I_{1}\subsetneq ...\subsetneq I_{t}$ is an ascending chain (of length $t$) of ideals in the polynomial ring $K[x_{1},,...,x_{m}]$, for some $m\geq 1$. Suppose that $I_{j}$ is generated by polynomials of…

We start with a brief survey on the Northcott property for subfields of the algebraic numbers $\Qbar$. Then we introduce a new criterion for its validity (refining the author's previous criterion), addressing a problem of Bombieri. We show…

Over the last two decades, pseudospectral methods based on Lagrange interpolants have flourished in solving trajectory optimization problems and their flight implementations. In a seemingly unjustified departure from these highly successful…

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic $0$ and let $K = k(B)$ be the function field of a geometrically irreducible projective curve $B$ over $k$. Let $A/K$ be a $g$-dimensional abelian variety with $\mathrm{Tr}_{K/k}(A) = 0$. We prove that…

Let $k$ be a finitely generated field of characteristic $p>0$ and $X$ a smooth and proper scheme over $k$. Recent works of Cadoret, Hui and Tamagawa show that, if $X$ satisfies the $\ell$-adic Tate conjecture for divisors for every prime…

Suppose $K$ is an imaginary quadratic field, and let $N_K$ denote the field norm in the ring of integers $O_K$. Let $B(x_0,r) = \{x \in O_K: |N_K(x-x_0)| < r\}$. Let $G_K(X) = \max \{r > 0: \text{there exists } x_0 \in O_K \text{ such that…

Let $R$ be a Dedekind ring, $\mathfrak{p}$ a nonzero prime ideal of $R$, $P\in R[X]$ a monic irreducible polynomial, and $K$ the quotient field of $R$. We give in this paper a lower bound for the $\mathfrak{p}$-adic valuation of the index…

A number field $k$ admits a binary integral quadratic form which represents all integers locally but not globally if and only if the class number of $k$ is bigger than one. In this case, there are only finitely many classes of such binary…

Let G be a simple algebraic group over the complex numbers containing a Borel subgroup B. Given a B-stable ideal I in the nilradical of the Lie algebra of B, we define natural numbers $m_1, m_2, ..., m_k$ which we call ideal exponents. We…

For any field $F$ (of characteristic not equal to 2), we determine the Zariski spectrum of homogeneous prime ideals in $K^{MW}_*(F)$, the Milnor-Witt $K$-theory ring of $F$. As a corollary, we recover Lorenz and Leicht's classical result on…

Let $l$ be a rational prime greater than or equal to $3$ and $k$ be a given positive integer. Under a conjecture due to Langland and an assumption on upper bound for the regulator of fields of the form $\mathbb{Q}\left(\sqrt[l]a\right)$, we…

We present a new positive lower bound for the minimum value taken by a polynomial P with integer coefficients in k variables over the standard simplex of R^k, assuming that P is positive on the simplex. This bound depends only on the number…

Let $S=\mathbb{K}[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ the polynomial ring over a field $\mathbb{K}$. In this paper for some families of monomial ideals $I \subset S$ we study the minimal number of generators of $I^k$. We use this results to find some other…

Let \(K\) be a perfectoid field with pseudo-uniformizer \(\pi\). We adapt an argument of Du in \cite{DuUncountable} to show that the perfectoid Tate algebra \(K\langle x^{1 / p^{\infty}} \rangle\) has an uncountable chain of distinct prime…

Let $K/\Q$ be a cyclic extension of number fields with Galois group $G$. We study the ideal classes of primes $\mathfrak{p}$ of $K$ of residue degree bigger than one in the class group of $K$. In particular, we explore such extensions…

Let \({\mathbb K}\) be any field, let \(X\subset {\mathbb P}^{k-1}\) be a set of \(n\) distinct \({\mathbb K}\)-rational points, and let \(a\geq 1\) be an integer. In this paper we find lower bounds for the minimum distance \(d(X)_a\) of…

The main focus of this paper is on the problem of relating an ideal $I$ in the polynomial ring $\mathbb Q[x_1, \dots, x_n]$ to a corresponding ideal in $\mathbb F_p[x_1,\dots, x_n]$ where $p$ is a prime number; in other words, the…

In algebraic geometry, Bertini theorems are an extremely important tool. A generalization of the classical theorem to multiplier ideals show that multiplier ideals restrict to a general hyperplane section. In characteristic $p > 0$, the…

Let $K\geq 2$ be a natural number and $a_i,b_i\in\mathbb{Z}$ for $i=1,\ldots,K-1$. We use the large sieve to derive explicit upper bounds for the number of prime $k$-tuplets, i.e., for the number of primes $p\leq x$ for which all $a_ip+b_i$…
