A method is proposed for defining an arbitrary number of differential calculi over a given noncommutative associative algebra. As an example the generalized quantum plane is studied. It is found that there is a strong correlation, but not a…
We show how a type of multi-Frobenius nonclassicality of a curve defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of characteristic $p$ reflects on the geometry of its strict dual curve. In particular, in such cases we may describe all the…
Motivated by a question of van der Poorten about the existence of infinite chain of prime numbers (with respect to some base), in this paper we advance the study of sequences of consecutive polynomials whose coefficients are chosen…
Let $P(t),Q(t)\in \mathbb{Q}(t)$ be rational functions such that $P(t),Q(t)$ and the constant function $1$ are linearly independent over $\mathbb{Q}$, we prove an asymptotic formula for the number of the corner configurations…
In this paper, we develop some basic techniques towards the Riemann hypothesis for higher rank non-abelian zeta functions of an integral regular projective curve of genus $g$ over a finite field $\mathbb F_q$. As an application of the…
Let $E/\mathbb{Q}(T)$ be a non-isotrivial elliptic curve of rank $r$. A theorem due to Silverman implies that the rank $r_t$ of the specialization $E_t/\mathbb{Q}$ is at least $r$ for all but finitely many $t \in \mathbb{Q}$. Moreover, it…
A smooth geometrically connected curve over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ with gonality $\gamma$ has at most ${\gamma(q+1)}$ rational points. The first author and Grantham conjectured that there exist curves of every sufficiently large…
All binary plane curves of degree less than 7 are examined for curves with a large number of Fq rational points on their smooth model, for q = 2^m ; m = 3, 4,...,11. Previous results are improved, and many new curves are found meeting or…
We investigate a notion of "higher modularity" for elliptic curves over function fields. Given such an elliptic curve $E$ and an integer $r\geq 1$, we say that $E$ is $r$-modular when there is an algebraic correspondence between a stack of…
A sequence of functions {f_n(q)}_{n=1}^{\infty} satisfies the functional equation for multiplication of quantum integers if f_{mn}(q) = f_m(q)f_n(q^m) for all positive integers m and n. This paper describes the structure of all sequences of…
We derive explicit upper bounds for various functions counting primes in arithmetic progressions. By way of example, if $q$ and $a$ are integers with $\gcd(a,q)=1$ and $3 \leq q \leq 10^5$, and $\theta(x;q,a)$ denotes the sum of the…
Rational approximations of generalized hypergeometric functions ${}_pF_q$ of type $(n+k,k)$ are constructed by the Drummond and factorial Levin-type sequence transformations. We derive recurrence relations for these rational approximations…
In the recent work \cite{shi18}, a combinatorial problem concerning linear codes over a finite field $\F_q$ was introduced. In that work the authors studied the weight set of an $[n,k]_q$ linear code, that is the set of non-zero distinct…
We provide a framework for using elliptic curves with complex multiplication to determine the primality or compositeness of integers that lie in special sequences, in deterministic quasi-quadratic time. We use this to find large primes,…
We introduce sequences of functions orthogonal on a finite interval: proper orthogonal rational functions, orthogonal exponential functions, orthogonal logarithmic functions, and transmuted orthogonal polynomials
Fixing $t \in \mathbb{R}$ and a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of odd characteristic, we give an explicit upper bound on the proportion of genus $g$ hyperelliptic curves over $\mathbb{F}_q$ whose zeta function vanishes at $\frac{1}{2} + it$.…
An $r$-uniform hypergraph is linear if every two edges intersect in at most one vertex. The $r$-expansion $F^{r}$ of a graph $F$ is the $r$-uniform hypergraph obtained from $F$ by enlarging each edge of $F$ with a vertex subset of size…
In this paper, we give improved bounds for the computational complexity of computing with planar algebraic curves. More specifically, for arbitrary coprime polynomials $f$, $g \in \mathbb{Z}[x,y]$ and an arbitrary polynomial $h \in…
We use a recent characterization of minimal value set polynomials and $q$- Frobenius nonclassical curves to construct curves that generalize the Hermitian curve. The genus $g$ and the number $N$ of $\mathbb{F}_q$-rational points of the…
Working over imperfect fields, we give a comprehensive classification of genus-one curves that are regular but not geometrically regular, extending the known case of geometrically reduced curves. The description is given intrinsically, in…
