We give a proof of Gabber's presentation lemma for finite fields. We use ideas from Poonen's proof of Bertini's theorem to prove this lemma in the special case of open subsets of the affine plane. We then reduce the case of general smooth…

We study the problem of the irreducibility of the Hessian variety $\mathcal{H}_f$ associated with a smooth cubic hypersurface $V(f)\subset \mathbb{P}^n$. We prove that when $n\leq5$, $\mathcal{H}_f$ is normal and irreducible if and only if…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field with $q$ elements, where $q$ is a prime power and $n$ be a positive integer. In this paper, we explore the factorization of $f(x^{n})$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$, where $f(x)$ is an irreducible polynomial…

A log generic hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^n$ with respect to a birational modification of $\mathbb{P}^n$ is by definition the image of a generic element of a high power of an ample linear series on the modification. A log very-generic…

Given a base point free linear system on an algebraic variety, many classes of singularities are stable under taking suitable members after enlarging the base field. We establish analogous results when the base ring is an excellent ring.

Following and generalizing a construction by Kontsevich, we associate a zeta function to any matrix with entries in a ring of noncommutative Laurent polynomials with integer coefficients. We show that such a zeta function is an algebraic…

By the Pieri rule, the tensor product of an exterior power and a finite-dimensional irreducible representation of a general linear group has a multiplicity-free decomposition. The embeddings of the constituents are called Pieri inclusions…

For a subvariety of a smooth projective variety, consider the family of smooth hypersurfaces of sufficiently large degree containing it, and take the quotient of the middle cohomology of the hypersurfaces by the cohomology of the ambient…

Let $S$ be a rational fraction and let $f$ be a polynomial over a finite field. Consider the transform $T(f)=\operatorname{numerator}(f(S))$. In certain cases, the polynomials $f$, $T(f)$, $T(T(f))\dots$ are all irreducible. For instance,…

The monodromy conjecture is an umbrella term for several conjectured relationships between poles of zeta functions, monodromy eigenvalues and roots of Bernstein-Sato polynomials in arithmetic geometry and singularity theory. Even the…

A famous theorem of Bers and Finn states that isolated singularities of solutions to the non-parametric minimal surface equation are removable. We show that this result remains valid, if the area functional is replaced by a general…

Numerous results on self-reciprocal polynomials over finite fields have been studied. In this paper we generalize some of these to a-self reciprocal polynomials defined in [4]. We consider some properties of the divisibility of a-reciprocal…

For a rational $q=u+\frac{\alpha}{d}$ with $u, \alpha, d\in \ACOBZ$ with $u\ge 0, 1\le \alpha<d$, $\gcd(\alpha, d)=1$, the \emph{generalized Hermite-Laguerre polynomials $G_q(x)$} are defined by \begin{align*} G_q(x)&=a_nx^n+a_{n-1}(\alpha…

Let $G = \mathrm{SL}(n,\mathbb{C})$, let $B$ be a fixed Borel subgroup, and let $P \supset B$ be a parabolic subgroup determined by a composition $(c_1,\dots,c_k)$ of $n$. Write $P'$ for the derived group of $P$ and $\mathfrak{m}$ for the…

Let $F$ be a field of characteristic zero and $W$ be an associative affine $F$-algebra satisfying a polynomial identity (PI). The codimension sequence associated to $W$, $c_n(W)$, is known to be of the form $\Theta (c n^t d^n)$, where $d$…

Let A be a finite dimensional central division algebra over a local non-archimedean field F. Fix any parabolic subgroup P of GL(n,A) and a Levi factor M of P. Let \pi be an irreducible unitary representation of M and \phi (not necessarily…

Using the properties of the ideal of the coordinate Hermite interpolation on n-dimensional grid [4], we prove that the extension k in k[x1, x2, ..., xn] / (f1(x1), ..., fn(xn)) has a primitive element if and only if at most one of the…

Let $K$ be a totally real number field of degree $n \geq 2$. The inverse different of $K$ gives rise to a lattice in $\mathbb{R}^n$. We prove that the space of Schwartz Fourier eigenfunctions on $\mathbb{R}^n$ which vanish on the…

Let $F$ be a field of $q$ elements, where $q$ is a power of an odd prime. Fix $n = (q+1)/2$. For each $s \in F$, we describe all the irreducible factors over $F$ of the polynomial $g_s(y): = y^n + (1-y)^n -s$, and we give a necessary and…

Self-maps everywhere defined on the projective space $\P^N$ over a number field or a function field are the basic objects of study in the arithmetic of dynamical systems. One reason is a theorem of Fakkruddin \cite{Fakhruddin} (with…
