For each positive integer $n$, let $g_{\mathbb Z}(n)$ be the smallest integer such that if an integral quadratic form in $n$ variables can be written as a sum of squares of integral linear forms, then it can be written as a sum of…

A (global) determinantal representation of hypersurface in P^n is a matrix, whose entries are linear forms in homogeneous coordinates and whose determinant defines the hypersurface. We study the properties of such representations for…

We study arithmetical and geometrical properties of {\it maximal curves}, that is, curves defined over the finite field $\mathbb F_{q^2}$ whose number of $\mathbb F_{q^2}$-rational points reachs the Hasse-Weil upper bound. Under a…

Given a smooth projective variety $X$ over a number field $k$ and $P\in X(k)$, the first author conjectured that in a precise sense, any sequence that approximates $P$ sufficiently well must lie on a rational curve. We prove this conjecture…

We provide new explicit formulas for bounding the number of rational points on singular curves over finite fields. This enables us to obtain exact values of N q (g, $\pi$) which is defined as the maximum number of rational points over F q…

Let $A$ be a square complex matrix; $z_1$, ..., $z_{N}\in\mathbb C$ be arbitrary (possibly repetitive) points of interpolation; $f$ be an analytic function defined on a neighborhood of the convex hull of the union of the spectrum…

We find upper and lower bounds on the number of rational points that are $\psi$-approximations of some $n$-dimensional $p$-adic integer. Lattice point counting techniques are used to find the upper bound result, and a Pigeon-hole principle…

We classify and enumerate all rational numbers with approximation constant at least $\frac{1}{3}$ using hyperbolic geometry. Rational numbers correspond to geodesics in the modular torus with both ends in the cusp, and the approximation…

Given an elliptic curve $E$ defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ without complex multiplication, we provide an explicit sharp bound on the index of the image of the adelic representation $\rho_E$. In particular, if $\operatorname{h}_{\mathcal{F}}(E)$…

Let $(X,L)$ be a polarized variety over a number field. We suppose that $L$ is an hermitian line bundle. Let $M$ be a non compact Riemann Surface and $U\subset M$ be a relatively compact open set. Let $\varphi:M\to X({\Bbb C})$ be a…

The height of a rational number $p/q$ is denoted by $h(p/q)$ and equals $\text{max}(|p|,|q|)$ provided p/q is written in lowest terms. The height of a rational tuple $(x_1,...,x_n)$ is denoted by $h(x_1,...,x_n)$ and equals…

For a set of $n$ points $V \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ let $G(V, p)$ be the random graph on $V$ where each possible edge is present independently with probability $p$. We call a subset $U \subseteq V$ {\emph {reconstructible}} if every injection…

In this paper, we prove that for any totally real field $F$, weight $k$, and nebentypus character $\chi$, the proportion of Hilbert cusp forms over $F$ of weight $k$ and character $\chi$ with bounded field of rationality approaches zero as…

Let $K$ be a field, $a, b\in K$ and $ab\neq 0$. Let us consider the polynomials $g_{1}(x)=x^n+ax+b, g_{2}(x)=x^n+ax^2+bx$, where $n$ is a fixed positive integer. In this paper we show that for each $k\geq 2$ the hypersurface given by the…

We propose an empirical formula for the problem of local distribution of rational points of bounded height. This is a local version of the Batyrev-Manin-Peyre principle. We verify this for a toric surface, on which cuspidal rational curves…

We give explicit and asymptotic lower bounds for the quantity $|e^{s/t}-M/N|$ by studying a generalized continued fraction expansion of $e^{s/t}$. In cases $|s|\geq 3$ we improve existing results by extracting a large common factor from the…

Given two irreducible conics $C$ and $D$ over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ with $q$ odd, we show that there are $q^2/4+O(q^{3/2})$ points $P$ in $\mathbb{P}^2(\mathbb{F}_q)$ such that $P$ is external to $C$ and internal to $D$. This…

In this paper, we establish the asymptotic estimates for the rational lines on diagonal cubic hypersurfaces defined by $\sum_{i=1}^sc_ix^3_i=0$ with $c_i\in\mathbb{Z}\setminus \{0\},$ provided that $s\geq 19.$ This improves the previously…

The uniform quadratic optimizatin problem (UQ) is a nonconvex quadratic constrained quadratic programming (QCQP) sharing the same Hessian matrix. Based on the second-order cone programming (SOCP) relaxation, we establish a new sufficient…

Over fields of characteristic zero, we show that for $n=1,d\geq4$ or $n=2,d\geq5$ or $n\geq3, d\geq 2n$, the generic $m$-marked degree-$d$ hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^{n+1}$ admits the $m$ marked points as all the rational points. Over…
