The celebrated Artin conjecture on primitive roots asserts that given any integer $g$ which is neither $-1$ nor a perfect square, there is an explicit constant $A(g)>0$ such that the number $\Pi(x;g)$ of primes $p\le x$ for which $g$ is a…
We develop practical techniques to compute with arithmetic groups $H\leq \mathrm{SL}(n,\mathbb{Q})$ for $n>2$. Our approach relies on constructing a principal congruence subgroup in $H$. Problems solved include testing membership in $H$,…
We study the counting function of cubic function fields. Specifically, we derive an asymptotic formula for this counting function including a secondary term and an error term of order $\mathcal{O}\big(X^{2/3+\epsilon}\big)$, which matches…
Evidences have suggested that counting representations are sometimes tractable even when the corresponding classification problem is almost impossible, or "wild" in a precise sense. Such counting problems are directly related to matrix…
All the known approximations of the number of primes pi(n) not exceeding any given integer n are derived from real-valued functions that are asymptotic to pi(x), such as x/log x, Li(x) and Riemann's function R(x). The degree of…
The Hidden Subgroup Problem is used in many quantum algorithms such as Simon's algorithm and Shor's factoring and discrete log algorithms. A polynomial time solution is known in case of abelian groups, and normal subgroups of arbitrary…
For positive integers $p$ and $q$ let $G:=\textrm{PSO}(p,q)$ be the projective indefinite special-orthogonal group of signature $(p,q)$. We study counting problems in the Riemannian symmetric space $X_G$ of $G$ and in the pseudo-Riemannian…
When restricted to some non-negative multiplicative function, say f, bounded on primes and that vanishes on non square-free integers, our result provides us with an asymptotic for $\sum_{n \le X}f(n)/n$ with error term $O((\log…
Let $n\geq 1$ be an integer, $p$, $q$ be distinct odd primes. Let ${G}$, $N$ be two groups of order $p^nq$ with their Sylow-$p$-subgroups being cyclic. We enumerate the Hopf-Galois structures on a Galois ${G}$-extension, with type $N$. This…
Finite hamiltonian groups are counted. The sequence of numbers of all groups of order $n$ all whose subgroups are normal and the sequence of numbers of all groups of order less or equal to $n$ all whose subgroups are normal are presented.
Let q be an odd positive integer and P \in F2[z] be of order q and such that P(0) = 1. We denote by A = A(P) the unique set of positive integers satisfying \sum_{n=0}^\infty p(A, n) z^n \equiv P(z) (mod 2), where p(A,n) is the number of…
Stirling numbers, which count partitions of a set and permutations in the symmetric group, have found extensive application in combinatorics, geometry, and algebra. We study analogues and q-analogues of these numbers corresponding to the…
A study of certain Hamiltonian systems has lead Y. Long to conjecture the existence of infinitely many primes of the form $p=2[\alpha n]+1$, where $1<\alpha<2$ is a fixed irrational number. An argument of P. Ribenboim coupled with classical…
Counting the number of prime numbers up to a certain natural number and describing the asymptotic behavior of such a counting function has been studied by famous mathematicians like Gauss, Legendre, Dirichlet, and Euler. The prime number…
The group isomorphism problem asks whether two finite groups given by their Cayley tables are isomorphic or not. Although there are polynomial-time algorithms for some specific group classes, the best known algorithm for testing isomorphism…
A quantum computer can efficiently find the order of an element in a group, factors of composite integers, discrete logarithms, stabilisers in Abelian groups, and `hidden' or `unknown' subgroups of Abelian groups. It is already known how to…
In this article we consider the general setting of conformal graph directed Markov systems modeled by countable state symbolic subshifts of finite type. We deal with two classes of such systems: attracting and parabolic. The latter being…
We prove that Abels' group over an arbitrary nondiscrete locally compact field has a quadratic Dehn function. As applications, we exhibit connected Lie groups and polycyclic groups whose asymptotic cones have uncountable abelian fundamental…
A finite group with a cyclic normal subgroup N such that G/N is cyclic is said to be metacyclic. A code over a finite field F is a metacyclic code if it is a left ideal in the group algebra FG for G a metacyclic group. Metacyclic codes are…
In this paper we explicitly determine all indicators for groups isomorphic to the semidirect product of two cyclic groups by an automorphism of prime order, as well as the generalized quaternion groups. We then compute the indicators for…
