Let $K$ be a finitely generated field of characteristic zero. We study, for fixed $m \geq 2$, the rational functions $\phi$ defined over $K$ that have a $K$-orbit containing infinitely many distinct $m$th powers. For $m \geq 5$ we show the…

In this paper, we use trace methods to study the algebraic $K$-theory of rings of the form $R[x_1,\ldots, x_d]/(x_1,\ldots, x_d)^2$. We compute the relative $p$-adic $K$ groups for $R$ a perfectoid ring. In particular, we get the integral…

The aim of this paper is twofold. On one hand, the additive solvability of the system of functional equations \[d_{k}(xy)=\sum_{i=0}^{k}\Gamma(i,k-i) d_{i}(x)d_{k-i}(y) \qquad (x,y\in \R,\,k\in\{0,\ldots,n\}) \] is studied, where…

We prove the $W\mathcal{O}$-rationality of klt threefolds and the rational chain connectedness of klt Fano threefolds over a perfect field of characteristic $p>5$. As a consequence, any klt Fano threefold over a finite field has a rational…

Solutions of RG equations for $\beta(\alpha)$ and $\alpha(Q)$ are found in the class of meromorphic functions satisfying asymptotic conditions at large $Q$ (resp. small $\alpha)$, and analyticity properties in the $Q^2$ plane. The resulting…

A set $R\subset \mathbb{N}$ is called rational if it is well-approximable by finite unions of arithmetic progressions. Examples of rational sets include many classical sets of number-theoretical origin such as the set of squarefree numbers,…

Let K be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Given a polynomial f(x,y) in K[x,y] with one place at infinity, we prove that either f is equivalent to a coordinate, or the family (f+c) has at most two rational elements. When…

A Kloosterman refinement for function fields $K=\mathbb{F}_q(t)$ is developed and used to establish the quantitative arithmetic of the set of rational points on a smooth complete intersection of two quadrics $X\subset \mathbb{P}^{n-1}_{K}$…

Let $k\in \mathbb{N}\setminus\{0\}$. For a commutative ring $R$, the ring of dual numbers of $k$ variables over $R$ is the quotient ring $R[x_1,\ldots,x_k]/ I $, where $I$ is the ideal generated by the set $\{x_ix_j\mid i,j=1,\ldots,k\}$.…
