Let F be a totally real number field of odd degree. We prove several purely local criteria for the asymptotic Fermat's Last Theorem to hold over F, and also for the non-existence of solutions to the unit equation over F. For example, if 2…

We investigate from an algebraic and topological point of view the minimal prime spectrum of a universal algebra, considering the prime congruences w.r.t. the term condition commutator. Then we use the topological structure of the minimal…

We prove that double exponentiation is an upper bound to Ramsey theorem for colouring of pairs when we want to predetermine the order of the differences of successive members of the homogeneous set.

To any real rational function with generic ramification points we assign a combinatorial object, called a garden, which consists of a weighted labeled directed planar chord diagram and of a set of weighted rooted trees each corresponding to…

Renyi's result on the density of integers whose prime factorizations have excess multiplicity has an analogue for polynomials over a finite field.

We prove some asymptotic results for the radius and the profile of large random bipartite planar maps. Using a bijection due to Bouttier, Di Francesco and Guitter between rooted bipartite planar maps and certain two-type trees with positive…

In this paper we are concerned with the finiteness property of Ext-indices of several ring extensions. In this direction, we introduce some conjectures and discuss the relationship of them. Also we give affirmative answers to these…

Let $K$ be a complete discretely valued field. An extension $L/K$ is "weakly totally ramified" if the residue extension is purely inseparable. We sharpen a result of Ax by showing that any Galois-invariant disk in the algebraic closure of…

We previously obtained a generalization and refinement of results about the ramification theory of Artin-Schreier extensions of discretely valued fields in characteristic $p$ with perfect residue fields to the case of fields with more…

By a theorem of Roberts, the integral closure of a regular local ring in a finite abelian extension of its fraction field is Cohen-Macaulay, provided that the degree of the extension is coprime to the characteristic of the residue field. We…

We present a practical framework to prove, in a simple way, two-terms asymptotic expansions for Fourier integrals $$ {\mathcal I}(t) = \int_{\mathbb R}({\rm e}^{it\phi(x)}-1) {\rm d} \mu(x) $$ where $\mu$ is a probability measure on…

We show that every continuous map from one translationally finite tiling space to another can be approximated by a local map. If two local maps are homotopic, then the homotopy can be chosen so that every interpolating map is also local.

Assuming a certain form of resolution of singularities, we prove a general existential Ax-Kochen/Ershov principle for tamely ramified fields in all characteristics. This specializes to well-known results in residue characteristic $0$ and…

The inverse Galois problem is concerned with finding a Galois extension of a field $K$ with given Galois group. In this paper we consider the particular case where the base field is $K=\F_p(t)$. We give a conjectural formula for the minimal…

Let $A$ be a finite-dimensional algebra with two simple modules. It is shown that if the derived category of $A$ admits a stratification with simple factors being the base field $k$, then $A$ is derived equivalent to a quasi-hereditary…

We characterize extensions of commutative rings $R\subset S$ such that $R\subset T$ is minimal for each $R$-subalgebra $T$ of $S$ with $T\neq R,S$. This property is equivalent to $R\subset S$ has length 2. Such extensions are either…

In one of our previous articles, we outlined the formulation of a version of the categorical arithmetic local Langlands conjecture. The aims of this article are threefold. First, we provide a detailed account of one component of this…

A classical theorem by Ritt states that all the complete decomposition chains of a univariate polynomial satisfying a certain tameness condition have the same length. In this paper we present our conclusions about the generalization of…

Let $K$ be a local field of characteristic $p$ and let $L/K$ be a totally ramified elementary abelian $p$-extension with a single ramification break $b$. Byott and Elder defined the refined ramification breaks of $L/K$, an extension of the…

Let p>2 be prime. We complete the proof of the weight part of Serre's conjecture for rank two unitary groups for mod p representations in the totally ramified case, by proving that any weight which occurs is a predicted weight. Our methods…
