We prove by using simple number-theoretic arguments formulae concerning the number of elements of a fixed order and the number of cyclic subgroups of a direct product of several finite cyclic groups. We point out that certain multiplicative…

Let $\mathrm{k}=\mathbb{Q}\left(\sqrt[3]{p},\zeta_3\right)$, where $p$ is a prime number such that $p \equiv 1 \pmod 9$, and let $C_{\mathrm{k},3}$ be the $3$-component of the class group of $\mathrm{k}$. In \cite{GERTH3}, Frank Gerth III…

We give a characterization of all del Pezzo surfaces of degree 6 over an arbitrary field $F$. A surface is determined by a pair of separable algebras. These algebras are used to compute the Quillen $K$-theory of the surface. As a…

A derived version of Maschke's theorem for finite groups is proved: the derived categories, bounded or unbounded, of all blocks of the group algebra of a finite group are simple, in the sense that they admit no nontrivial recollements. This…

We investigate versions of the Shafarevich conjecture, as proved for curves and abelian varieties by Faltings, for other classes of varieties. We first obtain analogues for certain Fano threefolds. We use these results to prove the…

We prove a generic Torelli theorem for Jacobian elliptic surfaces, provided that the geometric genus is large compared to the irregularity. The result is effective to the extent that defining equations for the base curve are recovered from…

We prove that each Torelli group of an orientable surface with any number of boundary components is at least exponentially distorted in the mapping class group by using Broaddus-Farb-Putman's techniques. Further we show that the distortion…

In this paper, we develop the method of circle of partitions and associated statistics. As an application we prove conditionally the binary Goldbach conjecture. We develop a series of steps to prove the binary Goldbach conjecture in full.…

Let $X$ be a non-singular projective complex surface. We can show that Bloch's conjecture (i.e., that if $p_g=0$ then the Albanese kernel vanishes) is equivalent to the following statement: If $p_g(X)=0$ then for any given Zariski open…

We continue the development of methods for enumerating nodal curves on smooth complex surfaces, stressing the range of validity. We illustrate the new methods in three important examples. First, for up to eight nodes, we confirm…

We determine the set of the Bloch vectors for N-level systems, generalizing the familiar Bloch ball in 2-level systems. An origin of the structural difference from the Bloch ball in 2-level systems is clarified.

We prove that number fields with arbitrary degree but weak ramification satisfy the Leopoldt conjecture on the l-adic rank of the group of units

This paper has two main results. Firstly, we complete the parametrisation of all p-blocks of finite quasi-simple groups by finding the so-called quasi-isolated blocks of exceptional groups of Lie type for bad primes. This relies on the…

In this paper, we focus on Oliver's $p$-group conjecture. We use elementary method to prove that Oliver's $p$-group conjecture holds for Sylow $p$-subgroups of unitary groups.

For $N\geq 3$, we show Tate's conjecture for the elliptic modular surface $E(N)$ of level $N$ over $\mathbb{F}_p$ for a prime $p$ satisfying $p\equiv 1\mod N$ outside of a set of primes of density zero. We also prove a strong form of Tate's…

Let A be the moduli space of (1,p)-polarised abelian surfaces with a level structure, for p an odd prime. Let X be a desingularisation of any algebraic compactification of A. Then X is simply-connected.

We prove a Lefschetz hypersurface theorem for abelian fundamental groups allowing wild ramification along some divisor. In fact, we show that isomorphism holds if the degree of the hypersurface is large relative to the ramification along…

In this paper we consider the following conjecture, proposed by Brian Alspach, concerning partial sums in finite cyclic groups: given a subset $A$ of $\mathbb{Z}_n\setminus \{0\}$ of size $k$ such that $\sum_{z\in A} z\not= 0$, it is…

We give a definition of (refined) Bloch groups of general commutative rings which agrees with the standard definition in the case of local rings whose residue field has at least $4$ elements. Under appropriate conditions on a ring $A$,…

Surfaces of general type with geometric genus $p_g=0$, which can be given as Galois covering of the projective plane branched over an arrangement of lines with Galois group $G=(\mathbb Z/q\mathbb Z)^k$, where $k\geq 2$ and $q$ is a prime…
