Let $f_1, ..., f_R$ be rational forms of degree $d \ge 2$ in $n > \sigma + R(R+1)(d-1)2^{d-1}$ variables, where $\sigma$ is the dimension of the affine variety cut out by the condition $\mathrm{rank}(\nabla f_k)_{k=1}^R < R$. Assume that…
Using a two-dimensional version of the delta method, we establish an asymptotic formula for the number of rational points of bounded height on non-singular complete intersections of cubic and quadric hypersurfaces of dimension at least $23$…
For d-dimensional irrational ellipsoids E with d >= 9 we show that the number of lattice points in rE is approximated by the volume of rE, as r tends to infinity, up to an error of order o(r^{d-2}). The estimate refines an earlier authors'…
We give formulas for the number of representations of non negative integers by various quadratic forms. We also give evaluations in the case of sum of two cubes (cubic case) and the quintic case, as well. We introduce a class of generalized…
We make quantitative improvements to recently obtained results on the structure of the image of a large difference set under certain quadratic forms and other homogeneous polynomials. Previous proofs used deep results of Benoist-Quint on…
An effective upper bound is established for the least non-trivial integer solution to the system of cubic forms \[ \begin{cases} F = c_{1}x_1^3 + c_{2}x_2^3 + \cdots + c_{n}x_n^3 = 0, \\ G = d_{1}x_1^3 + d_{2}x_2^3 + \cdots + d_{n}x_n^3 =…
For any finite field k of characteristic exceeding 3, the Hasse principle and weak approximation is established for non-singular cubic hypersurfaces X over the function field k(t), provided that X has dimension at least 6.
For a non-degenerate integral quadratic form $F(x_1, \dots , x_d)$ in $d\geq5$ variables, we prove an optimal strong approximation theorem. Let $\Omega$ be a fixed compact subset of the affine quadric $F(x_1,\dots,x_d)=1$ over the real…
We present a novel numerical method for solving ODEs while preserving polynomial first integrals. The method is based on introducing multiple quadratic auxiliary variables to reformulate the ODE as an equivalent but higher-dimensional ODE…
We will give new upper bounds for the number of solutions to the inequalities of the shape $|F(x , y)| \leq h$, where $F(x , y)$ is a sparse binary form, with integer coefficients, and $h$ is a sufficiently small integer in terms of the…
Let $f(x_1, x_2, x_3)$ be an indefinite anisotropic integral quadratic form with determinant $d(f)$, and $t$ a non-zero integer such that $d(f)t$ is square-free. It is proved in this paper that, as long as there is one integral solution to…
We study the equidistribution of integers of the form $n= x_1^2 + \cdots + x_d^2$ under the arithmetic constraints given by $(\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z})^d$. The first step in addressing this problem is to construct modular forms whose Fourier…
The purpose of this article is twofold. On the one hand, we prove asymptotic formulas for the quantitative distribution of rational points on any smooth non-split projective quadratic surface. We obtain the optimal error term for the real…
Let $C$ be a cubic form with rational coefficients in $n$ variables, and let $h$ be the $h$-invariant of $C$. Let $L_1, \ldots, L_r$ be linear forms with real coefficients such that if $\boldsymbol{\alpha} \in \mathbb{R}^r \setminus \{…
Let $C$ be a smooth projective curve defined over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ ($q$ is odd) and let $K=\mathbb{F}_q(C)$ be its function field. Removing one closed point $C^\text{af} = C-\{\infty\}$ results in an integral domain…
We estimate the number of integer solutions to decomposable form inequalities (both asymptotic estimates and upper bounds are provided) when the degree of the form and the number of variables are relatively prime. These estimates display…
We examine a bias towards the zero residue class for the integers represented by binary quadratic forms. In many cases, we are able to prove that the bias comes from a secondary term in the associated asymptotic expansion (unlike…
We study symmetric nonnegative forms and their relationship with symmetric sums of squares. For a fixed number of variables $n$ and degree $2d$, symmetric nonnegative forms and symmetric sums of squares form closed, convex cones in the…
