N.Garc\'ia-Fritz and H.Pasten showed that Hilbert's 10th problem is unsolvable in the ring of integers of number fields of the form $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt[3]{p},\sqrt{-q})$ for positive proportions of primes $p$ and $q$. We improve their…
Let F and K be number fields, with F contained in K. and let O_F and O_K be their rings of integers. If there exists an elliptic curve E over F such that E(F) and E(K) have rank 1, then there exists a diophantine definition of O_F over O_K.
The recent negative answer to Hilbert's tenth problem over rings of integers relies on a theorem that for every extension of number fields $L/K$, if there is an abelian variety $A$ over $K$ such that $0 < \operatorname{rank} A(K) =…
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve with positive rank over a number field $K$ and let $p$ be an odd prime number. Let $K_{cyc}$ be the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension of $K$ and $K_n$ denote its $n$-th layer. The Mordell--Weil rank of $E$ is…
We prove that Hilbert's Tenth Problem for a ring of integers in a number field K has a negative answer if K satisfies two arithmetical conditions (existence of a so-called division-ample set of integers and of an elliptic curve of rank one…
Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field and $p$ be an odd prime which splits in $K$. Let $E_1$ and $E_2$ be elliptic curves over $K$ such that the $Gal(\bar{K}/K)$-modules $E_1[p]$ and $E_2[p]$ are isomorphic. We show that under certain…
We show that Hilbert's Tenth Problem is undecidable for complementary subrings of number fields and that the p-adic and archimedean ring versions of Mazur's conjectures do not hold in these rings. More specifically, given a number field K,…
Via a novel application of Iwasawa theory, we study Hilbert's tenth problem for number fields occurring in $\mathbb{Z}_p$-towers of imaginary quadratic fields $K$. For a odd prime $p$, the lines $(a,b) \in \mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{Z}_p)$ are…
We consider Hilbert's tenth problem for two families of noncommutative rings. Let $K$ be a field of characteristic $p$. We start by showing that Hilbert's tenth problem has a negative answer over the twisted polynomial ring $K\{\tau\}$ and…
Let $K$ be a number field and $\ell \geq 5$ a prime number. Mazur and Rubin introduced the notion of diophantine stability for a variety $X_{/K}$ at a prime $\ell$. We show that there is a positive density set of elliptic curves…
One of the main open problems regarding decidability of the existential theory of rings is the analogue of Hilbert's Tenth Problem (HTP) for the ring of entire holomorphic functions in one variable. In the direction of a negative solution,…
To prove that Hilbert's tenth problem over a ring R has a negative answer, usually the integers or another ring for which Hilbert's tenth problem has a negative solution is modelled inside the ring of interest. In this paper, we formalize…
For all infinite rings $R$ that are finitely generated over $\mathbb{Z}$, we show that Hilbert's tenth problem has a negative answer. This is accomplished by constructing elliptic curves $E$ without rank growth in certain quadratic…
Let k be a field of characteristic zero, V a smooth, positive-dimensional, quasiprojective variety over k, and D a nonempty effective divisor on V. Let K be the function field of V, and A the semilocal ring of D in K. In this paper, we…
Hilbert's Tenth Problem (HTP) asks for an algorithm to test whether an arbitrary polynomial Diophantine equation with integer coefficients has solutions over the ring $\mathbb Z$ of the integers. This was finally solved by Matiyasevich…
We show that for $5/6$-th of all primes $p$, Hilbert's 10-th Problem is unsolvable for $\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_3, \sqrt[3]{p})$. We also show that there is an infinite set $S$ of square free integers such tha Hilbert's 10-th Problem is unsolvable…
A negative solution to Hilbert's tenth problem for the ring of integers $O_F$ of a number field $F$ would follow if $\mathbb{Z}$ were Diophantine in $O_F$. Denef and Lipshitz conjectured that the latter occurs for every number field $F$. In…
We study the Diophantine problem (decidability of finite systems of equations) in different classes of finitely generated solvable groups (nilpotent, polycyclic, metabelian, free solvable, etc), which satisfy some natural…
We give the first examples of infinite sets of primes S such that Hilbert's Tenth Problem over Z[S^{-1}] has a negative answer. In fact, we can take S to be a density 1 set of primes. We show also that for some such S there is a punctured…
We study systems of polynomial equations in several classes of finitely generated rings and algebras. For each ring $R$ (or algebra) in one of these classes we obtain an interpretation by systems of equations of a ring of integers $O$ of a…
