A partition of a positive integer $n$ is said to be $t$-core if none of its hook lengths are divisible by $t$. Recently, two analogues, $\overline{a}_t(n)$ and $\overline{b}_t(n)$, of the $t$-core partition function, $c_t(n)$, have been…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over the rationals given by an integral Weierstrass model and let $P$ be a rational point of infinite order. The multiple $nP$ has the form $(A_n/B_n^2,C_n/B_n^3)$ where $A_n$, $B_n$, $C_n$ are integers with…

Given positive integers $a_1,\ldots,a_k$, we prove that the set of primes $p$ such that $p \not\equiv 1 \bmod{a_i}$ for $i=1,\ldots,k$ admits asymptotic density relative to the set of all primes which is at least $\prod_{i=1}^k…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ and without complex multiplication. For a prime $p$ of good reduction for $E$, we write $\#E_p(\mathbb{F}_p) = p + 1 - a_p(E)$ for the number of $\mathbb{F}_p$-rational points of the…

The set of indices that correspond to the positive entries of a sequence of numbers is called its positivity set. In this paper, we study the density of the positivity set of a given linear recurrence sequence, that is the question of how…

Let $P$ be a non-torsion point on an elliptic curve defined over a number field $K$ and consider the sequence $\{B_n\}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ of the denominators of $x(nP)$. We prove that every term of the sequence of the $B_n$ has a primitive…

Let $\{U_n\}_{n \geqslant 0}$ and $\{G_m\}_{m \geqslant 0}$ be two linear recurrence sequences defined over the integers. We establish an asymptotic formula for the number of integers $c$ in the range $[-x, x]$ which can be represented as…

In the class of nonlinear one-parameter real maps we study those with bifurcation that exhibits period doubling cascade. The fixed points of such a map form a finite discrete real set with dimension (2^n)m, where m is the (odd) number of…

We give a deterministic algorithm that very quickly proves the primality or compositeness of the integers N in a certain sequence, using an elliptic curve E/Q with complex multiplication by the ring of integers of Q(sqrt(-7)). The algorithm…

In 2009, W. D. Banks and I. E. Shparlinski studied the average densities of primes $p \leq x$ for which the reductions of elliptic curves of small height modulo $p$ satisfy certain arithmetic properties, namely cyclicity and divisibility of…

If $E$ is an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$, then it follows from work of Serre and Hooley that, under the assumption of the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, the density of primes $p$ such that the group of $\mathbb{F}_p$-rational points…

In literature, there are two different definitions of elliptic divisibility sequences. The first one says that a sequence of integers $\{h_n\}_{n\geq 0}$ is an elliptic divisibility sequence if it verifies the recurrence relation…

Fix m >= 1 and let E be an elliptic curve over Q with complex multiplication. We formulate conjectures on the density of primes p (congruent to one modulo m) for which the pth Fourier coefficient of E is an mth power modulo p; often these…

We study planar curves defined by finite Fourier series of the form $F_n(t)=\sum_{p\le n} v_p(n!)\, e^{i p t}$, where the frequencies are the prime numbers and $v_p(n!)$ denotes the exponent of the prime $p$ in the factorization of $n!$. We…

We prove normal distribution laws for primes of bad semistable reduction in families of curves. As a consequence, we deduce that when ordered by height, $100\%$ of curves in these families have, in a precise sense, many such primes.

Let g be the element that is the sum of x^(n^2) for n >= 0 of A=Z/2[[x]], and let B consist of all n for which the coefficient of x^n in 1/g is 1. (The elements of B are the entries 0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9, 13, ... in A108345; see The…

A monogenic polynomial $f$ is a monic irreducible polynomial with integer coefficients which produces a monogenic number field. For a given prime $q$, using the Chebotarev density theorem, we will show the density of primes $p$, such that…

Let $L_d$ be the Latt\`es map associated to the multiplication-by-$d$ endomorphism of an elliptic curve $E$ defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. We determine the density $\delta(L_d,q)$ of periodic points for $L_d$ in…

For a prime $p\ge 5$ let $q_0,q_1,\ldots,q_{(p-3)/2}$ be the quadratic residues modulo $p$ in increasing order. We study two $(p-3)/2$-periodic binary sequences $(d_n)$ and $(t_n)$ defined by $d_n=q_n+q_{n+1}\bmod 2$ and $t_n=1$ if…

Let $\{U_n\}_{n \geq 0}$ and $\{V_m\}_{m \geq 0}$ be two linear recurrence sequences. We establish an asymptotic formula for the number of integers $c$ in the range $[-x, x]$ which can be represented as differences $ U_n - V_m$. In…
