We show that if an Eisenstein component of the $p$-adic Hecke algebra associated to modular forms is Gorenstein, then it is necessary that the plus-part of a certain ideal class group is trivial. We also show that this condition is…
Let $p$ be an odd prime, and let $\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} a_{n}X^{n}\in\mathbb{F}_p[[X]]$ be the reduction modulo $p$ of the Artin-Hasse exponential. We obtain a polynomial expression for $a_{kp}$ in terms of those $a_{rp}$ with $r<k$, for even…
For a number field $F$ and an odd prime number $p,$ let $\tilde{F}$ be the compositum of all $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extensions of $F$ and $\tilde{\Lambda}$ the associated Iwasawa algebra. Let $G_{S}(\tilde{F})$ be the Galois group over $\tilde{F}$…
We prove a Tverberg type theorem: Given a set $A \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ in general position with $|A|=(r-1)(d+1)+1$ and $k\in \{0,1,\ldots,r-1\}$, there is a partition of $A$ into $r$ sets $A_1,\ldots,A_r$ with the following property. The…
Let p be a prime number and G be a finite commutative group such that p^{2} does not divide the order of G. In this note we prove that for every finite module M over the group ring Z_{p}[G], the inequality #M \leq…
Let $p$ be a prime, and let $f(x)$ be an integer-valued polynomial. By a combinatorial approach, we obtain a nontrivial lower bound of the $p$-adic order of the sum $$\sum_{k=r(mod p^{\beta})}\binom{n}{k}(-1)^k f([(k-r)/p^{\alpha}]),$$…
In this paper, we prove that for any odd prime $p$ and for any $p$-integer $\alpha $,we have $ \binom{\alpha p-1}{p-1}\equiv 1-\alpha (\alpha -1)(\alpha ^{2}-\alpha -1)p\sum_{k=1}^{p-1}\frac{1}{k}+\alpha ^{2} (\alpha-1)^{2}p^{2}\sum_{1\leq…
We study an analogue of the Herbrand-Ribet theorem, and its refinement by Mazur and Wiles, in graph theory. For an odd prime number $p$, we let $\mathbb{F}_{p}$ and $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$ denote the finite field with $p$ elements and the ring of…
Let $p=2n+1$ be an odd prime, and let $\zeta_{p^2-1}$ be a primitive $(p^2-1)$-th root of unity in the algebraic closure $\overline{\mathbb{Q}_p}$ of $\mathbb{Q}_p$. We let $g\in\mathbb{Z}_p[\zeta_{p^2-1}]$ be a primitive root modulo…
We give an alternative proof of the evaluation formula for the elliptic Selberg integral of type $BC_n$ as an application of the fundamental $BC_n$-invariants.
Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring of prime characteristic $p$. The main goal of this paper is to study in some detail when \[ \overline{W^R}:=\{\mathfrak{p}\in\operatorname{Spec} (R):\ \mathcal{F}^{E_{\mathfrak{p}}}\text{ is finitely…
We consider the Gauss-Manin differential equations for hypergeometric integrals associated with a family of weighted arrangements of hyperplanes moving parallelly to themselves. We reduce these equations modulo a prime integer $p$ and…
The main focus of this paper is on the problem of relating an ideal $I$ in the polynomial ring $\mathbb Q[x_1, \dots, x_n]$ to a corresponding ideal in $\mathbb F_p[x_1,\dots, x_n]$ where $p$ is a prime number; in other words, the…
Vu, Wood and Wood showed that any finite set S in a characteristic zero integral domain can be mapped to F_p, for infinitely many primes p, while preserving finitely many algebraic incidences of S. In this note we show that the converse…
Semifields are semirings in which every nonzero element has a multiplicative inverse. A rough classification uses the characteristic of the semifield, that is the isomorphism type of the semifield generated by the two neutral elements. For…
Let $\mathbb{F}_p$ be the prime field of order $p>0$ and $G$ be an elementary abelian $p$-group.For some $n$-dimensional cohyperplane $G$-representations $V$ over $\mathbb{F}_p$, we show that $\mathbb{F}_p[V\oplus V^*]^G$, the invariant…
Let $p$ be a prime and $n$ a positive integer. As the first main result, we present a deterministic algorithm for deciding whether the matrix algebra $\mathbb{F}_p[A_1,\dots,A_t]$ with $A_1,\dots,A_t \in \mathrm{GL}(n,\mathbb{F}_p)$ is a…
Let $p$ be a prime and let $K$ be a finite extension of the field ${\bf Q}_p$ of $p$-adic numbers such that the group ${}_pK^\times$ has order $p$. The ${\bf F}_p$-space $K^\times\!/K^{\times p}$ carries a natural filtration coming from the…
We realize that geometric polynomials and p-Bernoulli polynomials and numbers are closely related with an integral representation. Therefore, using geometric polynomials, we extend some properties of Bernoulli polynomials and numbers such…
For cofinite Kleinian groups, with finite-dimensional unitary representations, we derive the Selberg trace formula. As an application we define the corresponding Selberg zeta-function and compute its divisor, thus generalizing results of…
