Let $A$ be a right Ore domain, $Z(A)$ be the center of $A$ and $Q_r(A)$ be the right total ring of fractions of $A$. If $K$ is a field and $A$ is a $K$-algebra, in this short paper we prove that if $A$ is finitely generated and ${\rm…

Algorithms for the computation of the real zeros of hypergeometric functions which are solutions of second order ODEs are described. The algorithms are based on global fixed point iterations which apply to families of functions satisfying…

(Strong) circular external difference families (which we denote as CEDFs and SCEDFs) can be used to construct nonmalleable threshold schemes. They are a variation of (strong) external difference families, which have been extensively studied…

For a 0-dimensional scheme $\mathbb{X}$ in $\mathbb{P}^n$ over a perfect field $K$, we first embed the homogeneous coordinate ring $R$ into its truncated integral closure $\widetilde{R}$. Then we use the corresponding map from the module of…

We give a full description of all sets of functions on the group $(\mathbb{ Z}_p, +)$ of prime order which are closed under the composition with the clone generated by $+$ from both sides. Thereby, we also get a description of all iterative…

This work studies slice functions over finite-dimensional division algebras. Their zero sets are studied in detail along with their multiplicative inverses, for which some unexpected phenomena are discovered. The results are applied to…

We show that Bloch's complex of relative zero-cycles can be used as a dualizing complex over perfect fields and number rings. This leads to duality theorems for torsion sheaves on arbitrary separated schemes of finite type over…

For a space X, we define Frobenius and Verschiebung operations on the nil-terms NA^{fd} (X) in the algebraic K-theory of spaces, in three different ways. Two applications are included. Firstly, we obtain that the homotopy groups of NA^{fd}…

We consider a purely algebraic result. Then given a circle or cyclic group of prime order action on a manifold, we will use it to estimate the lower bound of the number of fixed points. We also give an obstruction to the existence of…

Let $p$ be any odd prime number. Let $k$ be any positive integer such that $2\leq k\leq [\frac{p+1}3]+1$. Let $S = (a_1,a_2,...,a_{2p-k})$ be any sequence in ${\Bbb Z}_p$ such that there is no subsequence of length $p$ of $S$ whose sum is…

Suppose K is a field of characteristic 0, $K_a$ is its algebraic closure, p is an odd prime. Suppose, $f(x) \in K[x]$ is a polynomial of degree $n \ge 5$ without multiple roots. Let us consider a curve $C: y^p=f(x)$ and its jacobian J(C).…

Suppose $p$ is a prime, $t$ is a positive integer, and $f\!\in\!\mathbb{Z}[x]$ is a univariate polynomial of degree $d$ with coefficients of absolute value $<\!p^t$. We show that for any fixed $t$, we can compute the number of roots in…

The aim of this paper is to show how zeta functions and excision in cyclic cohomology may be combined to obtain index theorems. In the first part, we obtain a local index formula for "abstract elliptic pseudodifferential operators"…

Regarding polynomial functions on a subset $S$ of a non-commutative ring $R$, that is, functions induced by polynomials in $R[x]$ (whose variable commutes with the coefficients), we show connections between, on one hand, sets $S$ such that…

A general and fast method is conceived for computing the cyclic convolution of n points, where n is a prime number. This method fully exploits the internal structure of the cyclic matrix, and hence leads to significant reduction of the…

A method of constructing specific polynomial representations $f(x)$ over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_p$ of the square roots function modulo a prime $p = 2^kn + 1$, $n$ odd, is presented. The formulas for the cases $k = 2$, $3$ and $4$ are…

The polynomial method has been used recently to obtain many striking results in combinatorial geometry. In this paper, we use affine Hilbert functions to obtain an estimation theorem in finite field geometry. The most natural way to state…

In this article, we study the zeros of the partial sums of the Dedekind zeta function of a cyclotomic field $K$ defined by the truncated Dirichlet series \[ \zeta_{K, X} (s) = \sum_{\|\mathfrak{a}\| \leq X} \frac{1}{\|\mathfrak{a}\|^{s}},…

The ring of Witt vectors $\mathbb{W} R$ over a base ring $R$ is an important tool in algebraic number theory and lies at the foundations of modern $p$-adic Hodge theory. $\mathbb{W} R$ has the interesting property that it constructs a ring…
