Let $f(t,y,y')=\sum_{i=0}^n a_i(t,y)y'^i=0$ be an irreducible first order ordinary differential equation with polynomial coefficients. Eremenko in 1998 proved that there exists a constant $C$ such that every rational solution of…

Objecting that Sommerfeld's quantum conditions refer to particular coordinates, Einstein proposes a canonically invariant rule. But even if the invariance is canonical, Einstein may have in mind a double \emph{configuration} space…

We prove a version of the Poincar\'e-Bendixson theorem for certain classes of curves on the 2-sphere which are not required to be the trajectories of an underlying flow or semiflow on the sphere itself. Using this result we extend the…

We associate an $(n_1+\dots+n_t-k(t-1))$-fold Pfister form to any $t$-tuple of $k$-linked Pfister forms of dimensions $2^{n_1},\dots,2^{n_t}$, and prove its invariance under the different symbol presentations of the forms with a common…

We prove a formula for the Taylor series coefficients of a zero of the sum of a complex-exponent polynomial and a base function which is a general holomorphic function with a simple zero. Such a Taylor series is more general than a Puiseux…

We survey recent work done on the values at integer points of irrational inhomogeneous quadratic forms, namely, inhomogeneous analogues of the famous Oppenheim conjecture. We also prove that the set of such forms in two variables whose set…

Let $p$ be an odd prime and let $f(x)=\sum_{i=1}^ka_ix^{p^{\alpha_i}+1}\in\Bbb F_{p^n}[x]$, where $0\le \alpha_1<...<\alpha_k$. We consider the exponential sum $S(f,n)=\sum_{x\in\Bbb F_{p^n}}e_n(f(x))$, where $e_n(y)=e^{2\pi…

In 1982, Tamaki Yano proposed a conjecture predicting the set of b-exponents of an irreducible plane curve singularity germ which is generic in its equisingularity class. In \cite{ACLM-Yano2} we proved the conjecture for the case in which…

We construct algebraically closed fields containing an algebraic closure of the field of power series in several variables over a characteristic zero field. Each of these fields depends on the choice of an Abhyankar valuation and are…

In 1982 Macdonald published his now famous constant term conjectures for classical root systems. This paper begins with the almost trivial observation that Macdonald's constant term identities admit an extra set of free parameters, thereby…

Let a polynomial $f \in \mathbb{Z}[X_1,\ldots,X_n]$ be given. The square sieve can provide an upper bound for the number of integral $\mathbf{x} \in [-B,B]^n$ such that $f(\mathbf{x})$ is a perfect square. Recently this has been generalized…

A set $A\subseteq\mathbb N$ is called $complete$ if every sufficiently large integer can be written as the sum of distinct elements of $A$. In this paper we present a new method for proving the completeness of a set, improving results of…

Let $\xi$ and $m$ be integers satisfying $\xi\ne 0$ and $m\ge 3$. We show that for any given integers $a$ and $b$, $b \neq 0$, there are $\frac{\varphi(m)}{2}$ reduced residue classes modulo $m$ each containing infinitely many primes $p$…

Let $P(T,X)$ be an irreducible polynomial in two variables with rational coefficients. It follows from Hilbert's Irreducibility Theorem that for most rational numbers $t$ the specialized polynomial $P(t,X)$ is irreducible and has the same…

Given an autonomous first order algebraic ordinary differential equation F(y,y')=0, we prove that every formal Puiseux series solution, expanded around any finite point or at infinity, is convergent. The proof is constructive and we provide…

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…

We obtain several versions of the Hausdorff-Young and Hardy-Littlewood inequalities for the $(k,a)$-generalized Fourier transform recently investigated at length by Ben Sa\"i d, Kobayashi, and {\O} rsted. We also obtain a number of weighted…

For the solutions $\Phi(z)$ of functional equations $\Phi(z)=P(z)+\Phi(Q(z))$, we derive a complete asymptotic of power series coefficients. As an application, we improve significantly an asymptotic of the number of $2,3$-trees with $n$…

A polar hypersurface P of a complex analytic hypersurface germ, f=0, can be investigated by analyzing the invariance of certain Newton polyhedra associated to the image of P, with respect to suitable coordinates, by certain morphisms…

We exhibit invariants of smooth projective algebraic varieties with integer values, whose nonvanishing modulo p prevents the existence of an action without fixed points of certain finite p-groups. The case of base fields of characteristic p…
