We generalize an inequality for the determinant of a real matrix proved by A. Schinzel, to more general exterior products of vectors in Euclidean space. We apply this inequality to the logarithmic embedding of $S$-units contained in a…
We prove inequalities that compare the regulator of a number field with its absolute discriminant. We refine some ideas in Silverman's work in 1984 where such general inequalities are first proven. In order to prove our main theorems, we…
We prove inequalities that compare the relative regulator of an extension of number fields with a product of heights of multiplicatively independent relative units.
If $\alpha_1,\ldots,\alpha_r$ are algebraic numbers such that $$N=\sum_{i=1}^r\alpha_i \ne \sum_{i=1}^r\alpha_i^{-1}$$ for some integer $N$, then a theorem of Beukers and Zagier gives the best possible lower bound on $$\sum_{i=1}^r\log…
Let $\mathbf{G}$ be a reductive group defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ and let $\mathfrak{S}$ be a Siegel set in $\mathbf{G}(\mathbb{R})$. The Siegel property tells us that there are only finitely many $\gamma \in \mathbf{G}(\mathbb{Q})$ of…
We provide explicit bounds on the difference of heights of isogenous Drinfeld modules. We derive a finiteness result in isogeny classes. In the rank 2 case, we also obtain an explicit upper bound on the size of the coefficients of modular…
We prove several inequalities on the determinants of sublattices in LLL-reduced bases. They generalize the inequalities on the length of the shortest vector proven by Lenstra, Lenstra, and Lovasz, and show that LLL-reduction finds not only…
An inequality proved firstly by Remak and then generalized by Friedman shows that there are only finitely many number fields with a fixed signature and whose regulator is less than a prescribed bound. Using this inequality, Astudillo, Diaz…
We obtain upper bounds for the number of monic irreducible polynomials over $\mathbb Z$ of a fixed degree $n$ and a growing height $H$ for which the field generated by one of its roots has a given discriminant. We approach it via counting…
We give a sharpened form of Siegel Lemma's w. r. t. the maximum norm. This implies a new lower bound on the greatest element of a sum-distinct set of positive integers (Erd\"os-Moser problem). The main tools are Minkowski's theorem on…
We study inequalities that simultaneously relate the number of lattice points, the volume and the successive minima of a convex body to one another. One main ingredient in order to establish these relations is Blaschke's shaking procedure,…
The interrelations between (upper and lower) Minkowski contents and (upper and lower) surface area based contents (S-contents) as well as between their associated dimensions have recently been investigated for general sets in R^d (cf. [3]).…
We establish some important inequalities under a lower weighted Ricci curvature bound on Finsler manifolds. Firstly, we establish a relative volume comparison of Bishop-Gromov type. As one of the applications, we obtain an upper bound for…
We solve the following problem of Z. F\"uredi, J. C. Lagarias and F. Morgan [FLM]: Is there an upper bound polynomial in $n$ for the largest cardinality of a set S of unit vectors in an n-dimensional Minkowski space (or Banach space) such…
The main purpose of this note is to prove an upper bound on the number of lattice points of a centrally symmetric convex body in terms of the successive minima of the body. This bound improves on former bounds and narrows the gap towards a…
Minkowski's 2nd theorem in the Geometry of Numbers provides optimal upper and lower bounds for the volume of a $o$-symmetric convex body in terms of its successive minima. In this paper we study extensions of this theorem from two different…
Olkin [3] obtained a neat upper bound for the determinant of a correlation matrix. In this note, we present an extension and improvement of his result.
One of the most fruitful results from Minkowski's geometric viewpoint on number theory is his so called 1st Fundamental Theorem. It provides an optimal upper bound for the volume of an o-symmetric convex body whose only interior lattice…
Minkowski's second theorem on successive minima gives an upper bound on the volume of a convex body in terms of its successive minima. We study the problem to generalize Minkowski's bound by replacing the volume by the lattice point…
Minkowski's First Theorem and Dirichlet's Approximation Theorem provide upper bounds on certain minima taken over lattice points contained in domains of Euclidean spaces. We study the distribution of such minima and show, under some…
