Let $K$ be a number field with ring of integers $\mathcal O$. After introducing a suitable notion of density for subsets of $\mathcal O$, generalizing that of natural density for subsets of $\mathbb Z$, we show that the density of the set…
Let $p$ be a prime number and $\zeta_p$ be a primitive $p$-th root of unity in $\bm{C}$. Let $k$ be a field and $k(x_0,\ldots,x_{p-1})$ be the rational function field of $p$ variables over $k$. Suppose that $G=\langle\sigma\rangle \simeq…
For all positive non-square integer multiplier k, there is an infinity of multiples of triangular numbers which are also triangular numbers. With a simple change of variables, these triangular numbers can be found using solutions of Pell…
We define a group stucture on the primitive integer points (A,B,C) of the algebraic variety Q_0(B,C)=A^n, where Q_0 is the principal binary quadratic form of fundamental discriminant \Delta and n is a fixed integer greater than 1. A…
We determine the $3$-class groups of $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt[3]{p})$ and $K=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt[3]{p},\sqrt{-3})$ when $p\equiv 4,7\bmod 9$ is a prime and $3$ is a cubic modulo $p$. This confirms a conjecture made by Barrucand-Cohn, and proves the…
We study the quadratic integral points-that is, (S-)integral points defined over any extension of degree two of the base field-on a curve defined in P_3 by a system of two Pell equations. Such points belong to three families explicitly…
Finding polynomial solutions to Pell's equation is of interest as such solutions sometimes allow the fundamental units to be determined in an infinite class of real quadratic fields. In this paper, for each triple of positive integers…
The author has previously extended the theory of regular and irregular primes to the setting of arbitrary totally real number fields. It has been conjectured that the Bernoulli numbers, or alternatively the values of the Riemann zeta…
Given a set $P$ of $n$ points in $\mathbf{R}^d$, and a positive integer $k \leq n$, the $k$-dispersion problem is that of selecting $k$ of the given points so that the minimum inter-point distance among them is maximized (under Euclidean…
Let $(\alpha,\mathcal{N}_{\alpha})$ and $(\beta,\mathcal{N}_{\beta})$ be two canonical number systems for an imaginary quadratic number field $K$ such that $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are multiplicatively independent. We provide an effective lower…
The purpose of this paper is to study the solutions of $$ \Delta u +K(x) e^{2u}=0 \quad{\rm in}\;\; \mathbb{R}^2 $$ with $K\le 0$. We introduce the following quantity: $$\alpha_p(K)=\sup\left\{\alpha \in \mathbb{R}:\, \int_{\mathbb{R}^2}…
In this paper we determine explicitly the kernels $\mathbb K_{\alpha,\beta}$ associated with new Bergman spaces $\mathcal A_{\alpha,\beta}^2(\mathbb D)$ considered recently by the first author and M. Zaway. Then we study the distribution of…
In this paper, we study the problem: \begin{equation*} \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} -\Delta u+u+\lambda K\left( x\right) \phi u=a\left( x\right) \left\vert u\right\vert ^{p-2}u & \text{ in }\mathbb{R}^{3}, \\ -\Delta \phi =K\left( x\right)…
Let $k$ be a given positive odd integer and $p$ an odd prime. In this paper, we shall give a sufficient condition when a prime $p$ divides the order of the groups $K_{2k}(\mathbb{Z}[\zeta_m+\zeta_m^{-1}])$ and $K_{2k}(\mathbb{Z}[\zeta_m])$,…
Many concepts from extremal set theory have analogues for families of permutations. This paper is concerned with the notion of shattering for permutations. A family $\mathcal{P}$ of permutations of an $n$-element set $X$ shatters a $k$-set…
We consider pro-isomorphic zeta functions of the groups $\Gamma(\mathcal{O}_K)$, where $\Gamma$ is a unipotent group scheme defined over $\mathbb{Z}$ and $K$ varies over all number fields. Under certain conditions, we show that these…
The $k$-colouring reconfiguration problem asks whether, for a given graph $G$, two proper $k$-colourings $\alpha$ and $\beta$ of $G$, and a positive integer $\ell$, there exists a sequence of at most $\ell+1$ proper $k$-colourings of $G$…
The fifth-order KP II equation $$ \partial_t u + \alpha \partial_x^3 u + \beta \partial_x^5 u + u \partial_x u + \partial_x^{-1} \partial_y^2u=0$$ ($\beta<0$, $\alpha>0$) is a nonlinear dispersive equation that models long dispersive waves…
In this paper we study the Pythagoras number $\mathcal{P}(\mathcal{O}_K)$ for the rings of integers in totally real biquadratic fields $K$. We continue the work of Tinkov\'a towards proving the conjecture by Kr\'asensk\'y, Ra\v{s}ka and…
Suppose $\ell$ is a prime number, $\ell >3$, $K$ is a field that is an unramified finite extension of the field $\Q_\ell$ of $\ell$-adic numbers, and $G$ is a finite group that is a semi-direct product of a normal $\ell'$-subgroup $H$ and a…
