Let $\mathcal{F}$ be an $r$-uniform hypergraph and $G$ be a multigraph. The hypergraph $\mathcal{F}$ is a Berge-$G$ if there is a bijection $f: E(G) \rightarrow E( \mathcal{F} )$ such that $e \subseteq f(e)$ for each $e \in E(G)$. Given a…

A group is said to be cube-free if its order is not divisible by the cube of any prime. Let $f_{cf,sol}(n)$ denote the isomorphism classes of solvable cube-free groups of order $n$. We find asymptotic bounds for $f_{cf,sol}(n)$ in this…

We prove that if $f$ is a reduced homogenous polynomial of degree $d$, then its $F$-pure threshold at the unique homogeneous maximal ideal is at least $\frac{1}{d-1}$. We show, furthermore, that its $F$-pure threshold equals $\frac{1}{d-1}$…

An old problem of Moser asks: how large of a union-free subfamily does every family of m sets have? A family of sets is called union-free if there are no three distinct sets in the family such that the union of two of the sets is equal to…

The space Loc(m,S) of rank m flat bundles on a closed surface S is K_2-symplectic. A threefold M bounding S gives rise a K_2-Lagrangian in Loc(m,S) given by the flat bundles on S extending to M. We generalize this, replacing the zero…

A $k$-uniform hypergraph $M$ is set-homogeneous if it is countable (possibly finite) and whenever two finite induced subhypergraphs $U,V$ are isomorphic there is $g\in Aut(M)$ with $U^g=V$; the hypergraph $M$ is said to be homogeneous if in…

In many situations, the monodromy group of enumerative problems will be the full symmetric group. In this paper, we study a similar phenomenon on the rational curves in $|\mathcal{O}(1)|$ on a generic K3 surface of fixed genus over…

A subset of $\mathbb{F}_q^2$ is called an arc if it does not contain three collinear points. We show that there are at most $\binom{(1 + o(1))q}{m}$ arcs of size $m \gg q^{1/2} (\log q)^{3/2}$, nearly matching a trivial lower bound…

We characterize the integers n such that $x\mapsto x^3$ describes a bijection from the set $\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$ to itself and we determine the frequency of these integers. Precisely, denoting by $W$ the set of these integers, we prove…

Let $f(x)=(x^{k}+c)^{m}-ax^{n}\in\mathbb{Z}[x]$ be an irreducible polynomial over $\mathbb{Q}$, where $k,m,n\in\mathbb{N}$ with $km>n$, and let $K=\mathbb{Q}(\theta)$, where $\theta$ is a root of $f(x)$. We investigate the arithmetic…

Over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{F}$, let $p$ and $q$ be monic polynomials with degree $2$ in $\mathbb{F}[t]$. The free Hamilton algebra of the pair $(p,q)$ is the free noncommutative algebra in two generators $a$ and $b$ subject only to…

Let $k$ be an even integer and $S_k$ be the space of cusp forms of weight $k$ on $\SL_2(\ZZ)$. Let $S = \oplus_{k\in 2\ZZ} S_k$. For $f, g\in S$, we let $R(f, g) = \{ (a_f(p), a_g(p)) \in \mathbb{P}^1(\CC)\ |\ \text{$p$ is a prime} \}$ be…

Let $b,c$ be positive integers, $x_1,x_2$ be indeterminates over $\Z$ and $x_m, m \in \mathbb Z$ be rational functions defined by $x_{m-1}x_{m+1}=x_m^b+1$ if $m$ is odd and $x_{m-1}x_{m+1}=x_m^c+1$ if $m$ is even. In this short note, we…

We show that for $100\%$ of the odd, squarefree integers $n > 0$ the $4$-rank of $\text{Cl}(\mathbb{Q}(i, \sqrt{n}))$ is equal to $\omega_3(n) - 1$, where $\omega_3$ is the number of prime divisors of $n$ that are $3$ modulo $4$.

Let $f(x)=x^{2p}+ax^p+b^p$, where $p$ is a prime and $a,b\in {\mathbb Z}$ with $ab\ne 0$. If $f(x)$ is irreducible over ${\mathbb Q}$, we say that $f(x)$ is monogenic if $\{1,\theta,\theta^2,\ldots ,\theta^{2p-1}\}$ is a basis for the ring…

We show that for infinitely many square-free integers q there exist infinitely many triples of rational numbers {a, b, c} such that a^2 + q, b^2 + q, c^2 + q, ab + q, ac + q and bc + q are squares of rational numbers.

Let a be a positive integer greater than 1, and Q_a(x;k,j) be the set of primes p less than x such that the residual order of a(mod p) is congruent to j modulo k. In this paper, the natural densities of Q_a(x;4,j) (j=0,1,2,3) are…

Let ${\{K_m\}_{m\geq 4}}$ be the family of non-normal totally real cubic number fields defined by the irreducible cubic polynomial $f_m(x)=x^3-mx^2-(m+1)x-1$, where $m$ is an integer with $m\geq 4$. In this paper, we will give a class…

Deciding whether or not two polynomials have isomoprhic splitting fields over the rationals is the Field Isomorphism Problem. We consider polynomials of the form $f_n(x) = x^4-nx^3-6x^2+nx+1$ with $n \neq 3$ a positive integer and we let…

A set A is square-difference free (henceforth SDF) if there do not exist x,y\in A, x\ne y, such that |x-y| is a square. Let sdf(n) be the size of the largest SDF subset of {1,...,n}. Ruzsa has shown that sdf(n) = \Omega(n^{0.5(1+ \log_{65}…
