In the past the first named author has studied to what extent the integral trace can characterize a number field beyond what the discriminant does. The cases of cyclic number fields and non-totally real fields are more or less settled,…
Let $m>1$ and $\mathfrak{d} \neq 0$ be integers such that $v_{p}(\mathfrak{d}) \neq m$ for any prime $p$. We construct a matrix $A(\mathfrak{d})$ of size $(m-1) \times (m-1)$ depending on only of $\mathfrak{d}$ with the following property:…
It follows from generalities of quadratic forms that the spinor class of the integral trace of a number field determines the signature and the discriminant of the field. In this paper we define a family of number fields, that contains among…
In 2012 the first named author conjectured that totally real quartic fields of fundamental discriminant are determined by the isometry class of the integral trace zero form; such conjecture was based on computational evidence and the analog…
Let $K$ be a number field, which is tame and non totally real. In this article we give a numerical criterion, depending only on the ramification behavior of ramified primes in $K$, to decide whether or not the integral trace of $K$ is…
Let $K$ be a number field. The \textit{integral trace form} is the integral quadratic form given by $\text{tr}_{K/\mathbb{Q}}(x^2)|_{O_{K}}.$ In this article we study the existence of non-conjugated number fields with equivalent integral…
An equivalence relation called isometry is introduced to classify constacyclic codes over a finite field; the polynomial generators of constacyclic codes of length $\ell^tp^s$ are characterized, where $p$ is the characteristic of the finite…
We show that if two division $p$-algebras of prime degree share an inseparable field extension of the center then they also share a cyclic separable one. We show that the converse is in general not true. We also point out that sharing all…
In this note we give a brief survey of the most elementary criteria used to determine the surjectivity of the trace operator on the ring of integers of a number field $K$. Furthermore, we introduce an easy to state yet unknown surjectivity…
The conjugacy class of a generic unimodular 2 by 2 complex matrix is determined by its trace, which may be an arbitrary complex number. In the nineteenth century, it was known that a generic pair (X,Y) of such pairs is determined up to…
This paper defines and develops cycle indices for the finite classical groups. These tools are then applied to study properties of a random matrix chosen uniformly from one of these groups. Properties studied by this technique will include…
We determine all possible degrees of cyclic isogenies of non-CM elliptic curves with rational $j$-invariant over number fields of degree $p$, where $p$ is an odd prime. The question had been answered for $p=2$, so this paper completes the…
The problem of efficiently characterizing degree sequences of simple hypergraphs is a fundamental long-standing open problem in Graph Theory. Several results are known for restricted versions of this problem. This paper adds to the list of…
Given a nonzero integer $d$, we know by Hermite's Theorem that there exist only finitely many cubic number fields of discriminant $d$. However, it can happen that two non-isomorphic cubic fields have the same discriminant. It is thus…
We provide a generalization of an algebraic linear combination for the trace of certain elliptic modular forms, and through specializing the expression at a suitable pair consisting of an elliptic curve over algebraic number fields and its…
We specialize the Eichler-Selberg trace formula to obtain trace formulas for the prime-to-level Hecke action on cusp forms for certain congruence groups of arbitrary level. As a consequence, we determine the asymptotic in the prime p of the…
In this essay, we see how prime cyclotomic fields (cyclotomic fields obtained by adjoining a primitive p-th root of unity to Q, where p is an odd prime) can lead to elegant proofs of number theoretical concepts. We namely develop the notion…
We prove that the local $\mathbb{A}^1$-degree of a polynomial function at an isolated zero with finite separable residue field is given by the trace of the local $\mathbb{A}^1$-degree over the residue field. This fact was originally…
Any non-degenerate quadratic form over a Hilbertian field (e.g., a number field) is isomorphic to a scaled trace form. In this work we extend this result to more general fields. In particular, prosolvable and prime-to-p extensions of a…
In this paper we study division algebras over the function fields of curves over $\Q_p$. The first and main tool is to view these fields as function fields over nonsingular $S$ which are projective of relative dimension 1 over the $p$ adic…
