A number of authors have proven explicit versions of Lehmer's conjecture for polynomials whose coefficients are all congruent to 1 modulo m. We prove a similar result for polynomials f(X) that are divisible in (Z/mZ)[X] by a polynomial of…
In this note, we will prove that a finite dimensional Lie algebra $L$ of characteristic zero, admitting an abelian algebra of derivations $D\leq Der(L)$ with the property $$ L^n\subseteq \sum_{d\in D}d(L) $$ for some $n\geq 1$, is…
Let $S$ be a domain and $R=S[t;\sigma,\delta]$ a skew polynomial ring, where $\sigma$ is an injective endomorphism of $S$ and $\delta$ a left $\sigma$ -derivation. We give criteria for skew polynomials $f\in R$ of degree less or equal to…
Jacobson proved that if a Lie algebra admits an invertible derivation, it must be nilpotent. He also suspected, though incorrectly, that the converse might be true: that every nilpotent Lie algebra has an invertible derivation. We prove…
We prove that a polynomial Julia set which is a finitely irreducible continuum is either an arc or an indecomposable continuum. For the more general case of rational functions, we give a topological model for the dynamics when the Julia set…
We present a conjecture on the irreducibility of the tensor products of fundamental representations of quantized affine algebras. This conjecture implies in particular that the irreducibility of the tensor products of fundamental…
In this note we give an explicit description of the irreducible components of the reduced point varieties of quantum polynomial algebras.
In this paper, the problem of bounding the number of reducible curves in a pencil of algebraic plane curves is addressed. Unlike most of the previous related works, each reducible curve of the pencil is here counted with its appropriate…
We consider families of polynomial lemniscates in the complex plane and determine if they bound a Jordan domain. This allows us to find examples of regions for which we can calculate the projection of $\bar{z}$ to the Bergman space of the…
We complete the enumeration of the possible roots of the Alexander polynomial (both conventional and over finite fields) of a trigonal curve. The curves are not assumed proper or irreducible.
Let $\pi$ be a polarized, regular algebraic, cuspidal automorphic representation of $\operatorname{GL}_n(\mathbb{A}_F)$ where $F$ is totally real or imaginary CM, and let $(\rho_\lambda)_\lambda$ be its associated compatible system of…
We study the Betti tables of reducible algebraic curves with a focus on connected line arrangements and provide a general formula for computing the quadratic strand of the Betti table for line arrangements that satisfy certain hypotheses.…
Over any field of characteristic $0$, we prove that the homotopy exact sequence of algebraic fundamental groups for the universal curve with unordered marked points does not split. The same nonsplitting holds for the universal hyperelliptic…
We consider absolutely irreducible polynomials $f \in Z[x,y]$ with $\deg_x(f)=m$, $\deg_y(f)=n$ and height $H$. We show that for any prime $p$ with $p>c_{mn} H^{2mn+n-1}$ the reduction $f \bmod p$ is also absolutely irreducible. Furthermore…
Under suitable, fairly weak hypotheses on an elliptic curve $E/\mathbb{Q}$ and a primitive non-trivial Dirichlet character $\chi$, we show that the algebraic $L$-value $\mathscr{L}(E,\chi)$ at $s=1$ is an algebraic integer. For instance,…
In projectivized strata of meromorphic $1$-forms on elliptic curves with only one zero, the locus of residueless differentials is a complex curve endowed with a canonical complex projective structure. Drawing on the multi-scale…
We determine necessary and sufficient conditions for unicritical polynomials to be dynamically irreducible over finite fields. This result extends the results of Boston-Jones and Hamblen-Jones-Madhu regarding the dynamical irreducibility of…
We establish direct evidence of the arithmetic significance of plectic Stark-Heegner points for elliptic curves of arbitrarily large rank. The main contribution is a proof of the algebraicity of plectic points associated to polyquadratic CM…
This paper is concerned with rational curves on real classical groups. Our contributions are three-fold: (i) We determine the structure of quadratic rational curves on real classical groups. As a consequence, we completely classify…
A set is introreducible if it can be computed by every infinite subset of itself. Such a set can be thought of as coding information very robustly. We investigate introreducible sets and related notions. Our two main results are that the…
