For an integer $k\geq 2$, let $\{F^{(k)}_{n}\}_{n\geqslant 2-k}$ be the $ k$--generalized Fibonacci sequence which starts with $0, \ldots, 0,1$ (a total of $k$ terms) and for which each term afterwards is the sum of the $k$ preceding terms.…

Let $p\geq 3$ be a prime number. In this article, we study the canonical expansion of the primitive $p^n$-th root of unity $\zeta_{p^n}$ in $p$-adic Mal'cev-Neumann field $\mathbb{L}_p$ for $n\geq 1$. More precisely, we give the explicit…

The focus of this paper is to show the absence of critical points for the solutions to the Helmholtz equation in a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{3}$, given by \[ \left\{ \begin{array}{l} -\rm{div}(a\,\nabla u_{\omega}^{g})-\omega…

Explicit solutions of the cubic Fermat equation are constructed in ring class fields $\Omega_f$, with conductor $f$ prime to $3$, of any imaginary quadratic field $K$ whose discriminant satisfies $d_K \equiv 1$ (mod $3$), in terms of the…

Let $\alpha=0.a_1a_2a_3\ldots$ be an irrational number in base $b>1$, where $0\leq a_i<b$. The number $\alpha \in (0,1)$ is a \textit{normal number} if every block $(a_{n+1}a_{n+2}\ldots a_{n+k})$ of $k$ digits occurs with probability…

Let $K$ be a number field. The $K$-arithmetic type of a rational prime $\ell$ is the tuple $A_{K}(\ell)=(f^{K}_{1},...,f^{K}_{g_{\ell}})$ of the residue degrees of $\ell$ in $K$, written in ascending order. A well known result of Perlis…

We investigate some aspects of the $m$-division field $K({\mathcal{E}}[m])$, where $\mathcal{E}$ is an elliptic curve defined over a field $K$ with ${\textrm{char}}(K)\neq 2,3$ and $m$ is a positive integer. When $m=p^r$, with $p\geq 5$ a…

We examine the Pythagoras number $\mathcal{P}(\mathcal{O}_K)$ of the ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_K$ in a totally real biquadratic number field $K$. We show that the known upper bound $7$ is attained in a large and natural infinite family…

Let $K/\mathbb{Q}$ be an algebraic extension of fields, and let $\alpha \not= 0$ be contained in an algebraic closure of $K$. If $\alpha$ can be approximated by roots of numbers in $K^{\times}$ with respect to the Weil height, we prove that…

We consider the 3D inverse scattering problem with non-over-determined scattering data. The data are the scattering amplitude $A(\beta, \alpha_0, k)$ for all $\beta \in S_\beta^2$, where $S_\beta^2$ is an open subset of the unit sphere…

Let $K$ be the sum of the reciprocals of the integers with no occurrence of the digit $b-1$ in base $b$. We show $K = b\log(b) - A/b - B/b^2-C/b^3+O(1/b^4)$ with $A=\zeta(2)/2$, $B = (3\zeta(2)+\zeta(3))/3$ and $C =…

We give a conjectural description of the vanishing order and leading Taylor coefficient of the Zeta function of a proper, regular arithmetic scheme $\mathcal{X}$ at any integer $n$ in terms of Weil-\'etale cohomology complexes. This extends…

The linearized Kepler problem is considered, as obtained from the Kustaanheimo-Stiefel (K-S)transformation, both for negative and positive energies. The symmetry group for the Kepler problem turns out to be SU(2,2). For negative energies,…

Let $(S,L)$ be a polarized $K3$ surface of genus $p \geqslant 11$ such that $\mathrm{Pic}(S)=\mathbf{Z}[L]$, and $\delta$ a non-negative integer. We prove that if $p\geqslant 4\delta-3$, then the Severi variety of $\delta$-nodal curves in…

Using Pascal triangle, we give a simple generalization to the so-called STRAND Puzzle solved by Srinivasa Ramanujan. Thus we are interested in computing the median, first and third quartiles of some integer valued distributions, arising…

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…
