Let k be a subfield of a p-adic field of odd residue characteristic, and let L be the function field of a variety of dimension n >= 1 over k. Then Hilbert's Tenth Problem for L is undecidable. In particular, Hilbert's Tenth Problem for…

We introduce a topology on the space of all isomorphism types represented in a given class of countable models, and use this topology as an aid in classifying the isomorphism types. This mixes ideas from effective descriptive set theory and…

We reduce the classification of finite extensions of function fields (of curves over finite fields) with the same class number to a finite computation; complete this computation in all cases except when both curves have base field…

We prove a categorical duality between a class of abstract algebras of partial functions and a class of (small) topological categories. The algebras are the isomorphs of collections of partial functions closed under the operations of…

This article studies the set of R-equivalence classes of the group of proper projective similitudes of an algebra with involution of the first kind. The main results concern base fields of characteristic different from 2 over which every…

In this paper we will give a scheme-theoretic discussion on the unramified extensions of an arithmetic function field in several variables. The notion of unramified discussed here is parallel to that in algebraic number theory and for the…

We study varieties defined over nonstandard fields using techniques of nonstandard mathematics.

We show that the height of a variety over a finitely generated field of characteristic zero can be written as an integral of local heights over the set of places of the field. This allows us to apply our previous work on toric varieties and…

For $\theta$ a non-algebraic point on a quasi projective variety over a number field, I prove that $\theta$ has an approximation by a series of algebraic points of bounded height and degree which is essentially best possible. Applications…

The geometry of antisymmetric fields with nontrivial transitions over a base manifold is described in terms of exact sequences of cohomology groups. This formulation leads naturally to the appearance of nontrivial topological charges…

The relationship between the sources of physical fields and the fields themselves is investigated with regard to the coupling of topological information between them. A class of field theories that we call topological field theories is…

We give a categorial definition separating cylindric-like algebras from polyadic-like ones. Viewing the neat reduct operator as a functor, we show that it does not have a right adjoint in the former case, but it is strongly invertible in…

We show that every affine or projective algebraic variety defined over the field of real or complex numbers is homeomorphic to a variety defined over the field of algebraic numbers. We construct such a homeomorphism by choosing a small…

We give optimal estimates on the variation of the differential and modular heights within an isogeny class of abelian varieties defined over the function field of a curve (in any characteristic). We also prove a parallelogram inequality for…

With this paper, we gain a better understanding of the set of near-field structures on a fixed scalar group. If we were able to describe all near-field structures on a fixed scalar group, we could describe all near-vector spaces. The…

In this note, we propose a geometric analogue of Dirichlet's unit theorem on arithmetic varieties, that is, if X is a normal projective variety over a finite field and D is a pseudo-effective Q-Cartier divisor on X, does it follow that D is…

I give a counter example of function field over GF(2) of genus 4 with class number one. This result contradicts a previous result in [2], Section 2 so that proof is wrong.

Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic number field of class number one and $\mathcal{O}_K$ be its ring of integers. We show that, if the arithmetic functions $f, g:\mathcal{O}_K\rightarrow \mathbb{C}$ both have level of distribution $\vartheta$…

This article is an overview of the vanishing cycles method in number theory over function fields. We first explain how this works in detail in a toy example, and then give three examples which are relevant to current research. The focus…

This paper presents an adaptation of recently developed algorithms for quadratic forms over number fields in arXiv:1304.0708 to global function fields of odd characteristics. First, we present algorithm for checking if a given…
