We show that the set of conjugacy classes of cubic polynomials with a prefixed critical point, of preperiod $k\geq 1$, is an irreducible algebraic curve. We also establish an analogous result for quadratic rational maps. We then study a…

Let $f_i(P)$ denote the number of $i$-dimensional faces of a convex polytope $P$. Furthermore, let $S(n,d)$ and $C(n,d)$ denote, respectively, the stacked and the cyclic $d$-dimensional polytopes on $n$ vertices. Our main result is that for…

David Hilbert proved that a non-negative real quartic form f(x,y,z) is the sum of three squares of quadratic forms. We give a new proof which shows that if the complex plane curve Q defined by f is smooth, then f has exactly 8 such…

Given a trivially graded polynomial ring $A=K[a_1,\dots,a_m]$ over a field $K$ and a positively graded polynomial ring $P=A[x_1,\dots,x_k]$, we study graded rings $R=P/I$, where $I$ is a homogeneous ideal in $P$ such that $I\cap A = \{0\}$.…

By means of Peres-Schlag's method we prove the existence of real numbers $\alpha, \beta$ such that $$ \liminf_{q\to \infty} (q\log^2 q)||\alpha q|| ||\beta q|| > 0.

Let $n\ge 2$ and $q\ge 2$ be given. The set $X = \mathbb Z_q^n$ is a metric space of diameter $n$ under the Hamming metric $d(\cdot,\cdot)$. We seek a smallest set $S\subseteq X$ that ``skirts'' every $q$-ary $n$-tuple in the sense that…

The parametric geometry of numbers of Schmidt and Summerer deals with rational approximation to points in $\mathbb{R}^n$. We extend this theory to a number field $K$ and its completion $K_w$ at a place $w$ in order to treat approximation…
