In this paper we prove that assuming Schanuel's conjecture, an exponential polynomial in one variable over the algebraic numbers has only finitely many algebraic solutions. This implies a positive answer to Shapiro's conjecture for…
Assuming Schanuel's conjecture, we prove that any polynomial exponential equation in one variable must have a solution that is transcendental over a given finitely generated field. With the help of some recent results in Diophantine…
We prove a duality theorem for the $p$-adic etale motivic cohomology of a variety $U$ which is the complement of a divisor on a smooth projective variety over $\F_p$. This extends the duality theorems of Milne and Jannsen-Saito-Zhao. The…
In this paper, we sharpen and simplify our earlier results based on Thue's Fundamentaltheorem and use it to obtain effective irrationality measures for certain roots of polynomials of the form $(x-\sqrt{t})^{n}+(x+\sqrt{t})^{n}$, where $n…
In this paper we give elementary conditions completely characterising when the theory of modules of a Pr\"ufer domain is decidable. Using these results, we show that the theory of modules of the ring of integer valued polynomials is…
Let $G$ be a simply connected simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$. The category of rational $G$-modules is not semisimple. We consider the question of when the tensor product of two simple…
We describe Mui invariants in terms of Milnor operations and give a simple proof for Mui's theorem on rings of invariants of polynomial tensor exterior algebras with respect to the action of finite general linear groups. Moreover, we…
We obtain a family of polynomials defined by vanishing conditions and associated to tangles. We study more specifically the case where they are related to a O(n) loop model. We conjecture that their specializations at $z_i=1$ are {\it…
We study the probability that a random polynomial with integer coefficients is reducible when factored over the rational numbers. Using computer-generated data, we investigate a number of different models, including both monic and non-monic…
We lift to the multivariate Eulerian polynomials the identity implying that univariate Eulerian polynomials are palindromic. As a consequence of this generalization, we obtain nice combinatorial identities that can be directly extracted…
We prove a family of identities, expressing generating functions of powers of characteristic polynomials of permutations, as finite or infinite products. These generalize formulae first obtained in a study of the geometry/topology of…
In this paper, we make use of the classification results of low-degree permutation rational functions together with their geometric properties to investigate rational functions that induce permutations on the multiplicative subgroup mu_q+1,…
Let $K$ be a number field, let $S$ be a finite set of places of $K$ containing the archimedean places and let $\mu$, $\alpha_1,\alpha_2,\alpha_3$ be non--zero elements in $K$. Denote by $\OS$ the ring of $S$--integers in $K$ and by…
We define a class of computable functions over real numbers using functional schemes similar to the class of primitive and partial recursive functions defined by G\"odel and Kleene. We show that this class of functions can also be…
We generalize the polynomial Szemer\'{e}di theorem to intersective polynomials over the ring of integers of an algebraic number field, by which we mean polynomials having a common root modulo every ideal. This leads to the existence of new…
Our starting point is Mumford's conjecture, on representations of Chevalley groups over fields, as it is phrased in the preface of "Geometric Invariant Theory". After extending the conjecture appropriately, we show that it holds over an…
By using the elementary symmetric polynomials and some results of number theory, we solve the well known problem of Lehmer on Euler's totient function. As application, we obtain a new characterization of prime numbers.
Let $G$ be a $(2,m,n)$-group and let $x$ be the number of distinct primes dividing $\chi$, the Euler characteristic of $G$. We prove, first, that, apart from a finite number of known exceptions, a non-abelian simple composition factor $T$…
Recently it was shown that it is undecidable whether a term rewrite system can be proved terminating by a polynomial interpretation in the natural numbers. In this paper we show that this is also the case when restricting the…
We show that a hypersimple unidimensional theory that has a club of reducts, in the partial order of all countable reducts, that are coordinatized in finite rank, is supersimple.
