The first step in the formulation and study of the Riemann Hypothesis is the analytic continuation of the Riemann Zeta Function (RZF) in the full Complex Plane with a pole at $s=1$. In the current work, we study the analytic continuation of…

We relate the singularities of a scheme $X$ to the asymptotics of the number of points of $X$ over finite rings. This gives a partial answer to a question of Mustata. We use this result to count representations of arithmetic lattices. More…

In this article, which is dedicated to my friend and colleague Boris Zilber on the occasion of his 75th birthday, I put forward a strategy for proving his quasiminimality conjecture for the complex exponential field. That is, for showing…

The adjoint action of a finite group of Lie type on its Lie algebra is studied. A simple formula is conjectured for the number of split semisimple orbits of a given genus. This conjecture is proved for type A, and partial results are…

In this paper we establish a new summation method by expanding $\prod_{k}(1-\frac{z}{a_{k}})^{-1}$ with two approaches: the Taylor expansion and the infinite partial fraction decomposition. Here we focus on the case when $a_{k}$ is…

Resolving a conjecture of Helson, Harper recently established that partial sums of random multiplicative functions typically exhibit more than square-root cancellation. Harper's work gives an example of a problem in number theory that is…

This note describes continued fraction representations for the rational approximations to the zeta function recently found by the author. It is tempting to think that these continued fractions might be analysed using a souped up version of…

Let G be a semisimple Lie group without compact factors, \Gamma be an irreducible lattice in G. In the first part of the article we give the necessary and sufficient condition under which a sequence of translates of probability…

Let Z(X) be the number of degree-d extensions of F_q(t) with bounded discriminant and some specified Galois group. The problem of computing Z(X) can be related to a problem of counting F_q-rational points on certain Hurwitz spaces.…

Let G be a real semi-simple Lie group and H a closed subgroup which admits an open orbit on the flag manifold of a minimal parabolic subgroup. Let V be a Harish-Chandra module. A sharp finite bound is given for the dimension of the space of…

A semi-analytic method to compute the first coefficients of the renormalization group functions on a random lattice is introduced. It is used to show that the two-dimensional $O(N)$ non-linear $\sigma$-model regularized on a random lattice…

We explain in detail how to accelerate continued fractions (for constants as well as for functions) using the method used by R.~Ap\'ery in his proof of the irrationality of $\zeta(3)$. We show in particular that this can be applied to a…

In his book \emph{Topics in Analytic Number Theory}, Hans Rademacher conjectured that the limits of certain sequences of coefficients that arise in the ordinary partial fraction decomposition of the generating function for partitions of…

We construct a version of the complex Heisenberg algebra based on the idea of endless analytic continuation. In particular, we exhibit an integral formula for the product of resurgent operators with algebraic singularities. This algebra…

We apply lattice point counting methods to compute the multiplicities in the plethysm of $GL(n)$. Our approach gives insight into the asymptotic growth of the plethysm and makes the problem amenable to computer algebra. We prove an old…

This article is part of an ongoing investigation of the two-dimensional Jacobian conjecture. In the first paper of this series, we proved the generalized Magnus' formula. In this paper, inspired by cluster algebras, we introduce a sequence…

We get three basic results in algebraic dynamics: (1). We give the first algorithm to compute the dynamical degrees to arbitrary precision. (2). We prove that for a family of dominant rational self-maps, the dynamical degrees are lower…

We contemplate the notion of ambiguity in mathematical discourse. We consider a general method of resolving ambiguity and semantic options for sustaining a resolution. The general discussion is applied to the case of `fraction' which is…

The derivation of the Hardy-Ramanujan-Rademacher formula for the number of partitions of $n$ is reviewed. Next, the steps for finding analogous formulas for certain restricted classes of partitions or overpartiitons is examined, bearing in…

In 2005 Wolfgang Willems put forward a conjecture proposing a lower bound for the sum of squares of the degrees of the irreducible $p$-Brauer characters of a finite group $G$. We prove this conjecture for the prime $p=2$. For this we rely…
