We describe an algorithm to compute the essentially different factorizations of a given image primitive integer-valued polynomial $f(X)=g(X)/d\in\Q[X]$, where $g\in\Z[X]$ and $d\in\N$ is square-free, assuming that the factorization of…
For each positive integer $n$ it is shown how to construct a finite collection of multivariable polynomials $\{F_{i}:=F_{i}(t,X_{1},..., X_{\lfloor \frac{n+1}{2} \rfloor})\}$ such that each positive integer whose squareroot has a continued…
Fix a positive real number $\theta$. The natural numbers $m$ with largest square-free divisor not exceeding $m^\theta$ form a set $\mathscr{A}$, say. It is shown that whenever $\theta>1/2$ then all large natural numbers $n$ are the sum of…
An elementary approach is shown which derives the values of the Gauss sums over $\mathbb F_{p^r}$, $p$ odd, of a cubic character without using Davenport-Hasse's theorem. New links between Gauss sums over different field extensions are shown…
We consider a relativistic charged particle in background electromagnetic fields depending on both space and time. We identify which symmetries of the fields automatically generate integrals (conserved quantities) of the charge motion,…
In this note we study the relationship between the power series expansion of the Dwork exponential and the Mahler expansion of the $p$-adic Gamma function. We exploit this relationship to prove that certain quantities that appeared in our…

We use the polynomials $m_s(t) = t^2 - 4 s$, $s \in \{-1, 1\}$, in an elementary process giving arbitrary large lists of {\it fundamental units} of quadratic fields of discriminants listed in ascending order. More precisely, let $\mathbf{B}…
We find all smooth toric bases that support elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau threefolds, using the intersection structure of the irreducible effective divisors on the base. These bases can be used for F-theory constructions of…
A number field $K$ is called \emph{monogenic} if its ring of integers $\mathbb{Z}_K$ can be expressed as a simple ring extension $\mathbb{Z}[\alpha]$ for some $\alpha \in \mathbb{Z}_K$. A monic irreducible polynomial $f(x)\in\mathbb{Z}[x]$…
It is shown that when a real quadratic integer $\xi$ of fixed norm $\mu$ is considered, the fundamental unit $\varepsilon_d$ of the field $\mathbb{Q}(\xi) = \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d})$ satisfies $\log \varepsilon_d \gg (\log d)^2$ almost always.…
First some old as well as new results about P.I. algebras, Ore extensions, and degrees are presented. Then quantized $n\times r$ matrices as well as quantized factor algebras of $M_q(n)$ are analyzed. The latter are the quantized function…
The index of a monic irreducible polynomial $f(x)\in\mathbb{Z}[x]$ having a root $\theta$ is the index $[\mathbb{Z}_K:\mathbb{Z}[\theta]]$, where $\mathbb{Z}_K$ is the ring of algebraic integers of the number field $K=\mathbb{Q}(\theta)$.…
Let $q$ be an odd prime power and let $\F_q$ be the finite field with $q$ elements. Let $\mathcal{P}(n)$ be the set of monic irreducible polynomials of degree $n$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$. For $f=t^n+f_{n-1}t^{n-1}+\cdots+f_0\in\mathcal{P}(n)$,…
We consider a superintegrable Hamiltonian system in a two-dimensional space with a scalar potential that allows one quadratic and one cubic integral of motion. We construct the most general associative cubic algebra and we present specific…
We consider polynomial maps described by so-called "(multivariate) linearized polynomials". These polynomials are defined using a fixed prime power, say q. Linearized polynomials have no mixed terms. Considering invertible polynomial maps…
We construct parameterized families of imaginary (resp. real) quadratic fields whose class groups have $n$-rank at least $2$.
We present counting methods for some special classes of multivariate polynomials over a finite field, namely the reducible ones, the s-powerful ones (divisible by the s-th power of a nonconstant polynomial), and the relatively irreducible…
New and old results on closed polynomials, i.e., such polynomials f in K[x_1,...,x_n] that the subalgebra K[f] is integrally closed in K[x_1,...,x_n], are collected. Using some properties of closed polynomials we prove the following…
Let $f=a_0+ a_{1}x+\cdots+a_m x^m\in \Bbb{Z}[x]$ be a primitive polynomial. Suppose that there exists a positive real number $\alpha$ such that $|a_m| \alpha^m>|a_0|+|a_1|\alpha+\cdots+|a_{m-1}|\alpha^{m-1}$. We prove that if there exist…
