In a recent paper, Freitas and Siksek proved an asypmtotic version of Fermat's Last Theorem for many totally real fields. We prove an extension of their result to generalized Fermat equations of the form $A x^p+B y^p+ C z^p=0$, where $A$,…

A common approach to quantify excess dissipation in slowly driven thermodynamic processes is through the use of a Riemannian metric on the space of control parameters, where optimal driving protocols follow geodesics. Near phase…

We consider the problem of numerically computing a critical point of a functional $J\colon M\rightarrow R$ where $M$ is a Riemannian manifold. Due to local quadratic convergence a popular choice to solve this problem is the geometric Newton…

Let K be an arithmetic function field, that is, a field of finite type over the rational number field. In this note, as an application of the height theory due to Chen-Moriwaki, we would like to show that the solutions of Fermat's curve X^N…

In this paper, we begin by introducing a well-known geometry concept: the Fermat point in a triangle. Then, we generalize the problem and propose an iterative algorithm based on gradient descent to the weighted form in Lp space. We also…

The Fourier transform is approximated over a finite domain using a Riemann sum. This Riemann sum is then expressed in terms of the discrete Fourier transform, which allows the sum to be computed with a fast Fourier transform algorithm more…

A positive integer $A$ is called a congruent number if $A$ is the area of a right-angled triangle with three rational sides. Equivalently, $A$ is a congruent number if and only if the congruent number curve $y^2=x^3-A^2x$ has a rational…
