We prove that for every field k and every positive integer n, there exists an absolutely simple n-dimensional abelian variety over k. We also prove an asymptotic result for finite fields: For every finite field k and positive integer n, we…

In this paper, we prove that there does not exist $F \in \mathbb{Q}[x,y]$ of degree $4$ such that $F(\mathbb{Z}^2) = \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0}$. In particular, this answers a question by John S. Lew and Bjorn Poonen for quartic polynomials.

Let ${z_n}$ be a sequence in the unit disk ${z\in\mathbb{C}:|z|<1}$. It is known that there exists a unique positive Borel measure in the unit circle ${z\in\mathbb{C}:|z|=1}$ such that the orthogonal polynomials ${\Phi_n}$ satisfy…

Let $F$ be a non-degenerate quadratic form on an $n$-dimensional vector space $V$ over the rational numbers. One is interested in counting the number of zeros of the quadratic form whose coordinates are restricted in a smoothed box of size…

A Sidon set is a set A of integers such that no integer has two essentially distinct representations as the sum of two elements of A. More generally, for every positive integer g, a B_2[g]-set is a set A of integers such that no integer has…

A polynomial with rational coefficients is said to be pure with respect to a rational prime $p$ if its Newton polygon has one slope. In this article, we prove that the number of irreducible factors of the $n$-th iterate of a pure polynomial…

Let $q=p^k$ be a prime power, let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field and let $n\geq2$ be an integer. This note investigates the existence small primitive normal elements in finite field extensions $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$. It is shown that a small…

This paper discusses the location of zeros of polynomials in a polynomial sequence $\{P_n(z)\}$ generated by a three-term recurrence relation of the form $P_n(z)+ B(z)P_{n-1}(z) +A(z) P_{n-k}(z)=0$ with $k>2$ and the standard initial…

Let $p$ be a prime number and $q$ a power of $p$. Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field with $q$ elements. For a positive integer $n$ and a polynomial $\varphi(X)\in\mathbb{F}_q[X]$, let $d_{n,\varphi}(X)$ denote the denominator of the…

Let $q$ be an odd prime power and $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field of $q$ elements. We define the Rudin-Shapiro function $R$ on monic polynomials $f=t^n+f_{n-1}t^{n-1}+\dots + f_0\in\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$ by $$…

Let F_q be the finite field of q elements. Let H be a multiplicative subgroup of F_q^*. For a positive integer k and element b\in F_q, we give a sharp estimate for the number of k-element subsets of H which sum to b.

With every real polynomial $f$, we associate a family $\{f_{\epsilon r}\}_{\epsilon, r}$ of real polynomials, in explicit form in terms of $f$ and the parameters $\epsilon>0,r\in N$, and such that $\Vert f-f_{\epsilon r}\Vert_1\to 0$ as…

Wooley ({\em J. Number Theory}, 1996) gave an elementary proof of a Bezout like theorem allowing one to count the number of isolated integer roots of a system of polynomial equations modulo some prime power. In this article, we adapt the…

Let $q=p^r$ be a prime power, and let $f(x)=x^m-\gs_{m-1}x^{m-1}- >...-\gs_1x-\gs_0$ be an irreducible polynomial over the finite field $\GF(q)$ of size $q$. A zero $\xi$ of $f$ is called {\em nonstandard (of degree $m$) over $\GF(q)$} if…

A sequence $a_0<a_1<\ldots<a_n$ of nonnegative integers is called a Sidon sequence if the sums of pairs $a_i+a_j$ are all different. In this paper we construct CAT(0) groups and spaces from Sidon sequences. The arithmetic condition of Sidon…

The Schinzel hypothesis essentially claims that finitely many irreducible polynomials in one variable over Z simultaneously assume infinitely many prime values unless there is an obvious reason why this is impossible. We prove that under a…

The set $S(n)$ of all elementary symmetric polynomials in $n$ variables is a minimal generating set for the algebra of symmetric polynomials in $n$ variables, but over a finite field ${\mathbb F}_q$ the set $S(n)$ is not a minimal…

A Sidon set $S$ in $\mathbb{F}_2^n$ is a set such that $x+y=z+w$ has no solutions $x,y,z,w \in S$ with $x,y,z,w$ all distinct. In this paper, we prove various results on Sidon sets by using or generalizing known cryptographic results. In…
