We study rational functions over finite fields under PGL-equivalence. We say that $f, g \in \Bbb F_q(X)$ are \emph{equivalent} if there exist $\psi, \phi \in \Bbb F_q(X)$ of degree one such that $g = \psi \circ f \circ \phi$. Most…
For a large prime $p$, a rational function $\psi \in F_p(X)$ over the finite field $F_p$ of $p$ elements, and integers $u$ and $H\ge 1$, we obtain a lower bound on the number consecutive values $\psi(x)$, $x = u+1, \ldots, u+H$ that belong…
Let $K$ be a global function field and let $\phi\in K[x]$. For all wandering basepoints $b\in K$, we show that there is a bound on the size of the elements of the dynamical Zsigmondy set $\mathcal{Z}(\phi,b)$ that depends only on $\phi$,…
Pop proved that a smooth curve C over an ample field K that has a K-rational point has |K| many K-rational points. We strengthen this result by showing that there are |K| many K-rational points that do not lie in a given proper subfield,…
Consider the Fulton-MacPherson configuration space of $n$ points on $\P^1$, which is isomorphic to a certain moduli space of stable maps to $\P^1$. We compute the cone of effective ${\mathfrak S}_n$-invariant divisors on this space. This…
This article proves the existence of completely positive quasimultiplicative maps from the group algebra of imprimitive reflection groups to the set of bounded operators, and uses those linear maps to define creation and annihilation…
For positive integers $K$ and $L$, we introduce and study the notion of $K$-multiplicative dependence over the algebraic closure $\overline{\mathbb{F}}_p$ of a finite prime field $\mathbb{F}_p$, as well as $L$-linear dependence of points on…
Various observables in compact CFTs are required to obey positivity, discreteness, and integrality. Positivity forms the crux of the conformal bootstrap, but understanding of the abstract implications of discreteness and integrality for the…
In this paper we prove that all irrational numbers from totally real cubic number fields are well approximable by rationals (i.e. the partial quotients in the continued fraction expansion of such a number are unbounded). This settles the…
A conjecture of Coleman implies that only finitely many quaternion algebras over the rational numbers can be the endomorphism $\mathbf{Q}$-algebras of abelian surfaces over the complex numbers which can be defined over $\mathbf{Q}$. One may…
We here present three characterizations of not necessarily causal, rational functions which are (co)-isometric on the unit circle: (i) Through the realization matrix of Schur stable systems. (ii) The Blaschke-Potapov product, which is then…
We show that for every complex simple Lie algebra, the equations of Schubert divisors on the flag variety give a complete integrable system of the minimal nilpotent orbit. The approach is motivated by the integrable system on Coulomb…
We provide new examples of integrable rational maps in four dimensions with two rational invariants, which have unexpected geometric properties, as for example orbits confined to non algebraic varieties, and fall outside classes studied by…
We provide in this paper an upper bound for the number of rational points on a curve defined over a one variable function field over a finite field. The bound only depends on the curve and the field, but not on the Jacobian variety of the…
Motivated by studying boundary singularities of rational functions in two variables that are analytic on a domain, we investigate local integrability on $\mathbb{R}^2$ near $(0,0)$ of rational functions with denominator non-vanishing in the…
We introduce a systematic framework for counting and finding independent operators in effective field theories, taking into account the redundancies associated with use of the classical equations of motion and integration by parts. By…
We extend results of Denef, Zahidi, Demeyer and the second author to show the following. (1) Rational integers have a single-fold Diophantine definition over the ring of integral functions of any function field of characteristic 0. (2)…
In this work we study the Artin-Mazur zeta function for piecewise monotone functions acting on a compact interval of real numbers. In the case of unimodal maps, Milnor and Thurston gave a characterization for the rationality of the…
We reduce the computation of three point function of three spinning operators with arbitrary polarizations to a statistical mechanics problem via the hexagon formalism. The central building block of these correlation functions is the…
Using the sieve for Frobenius, we show that, in a certain sense, the roots of the L-functions of "most" algebraic curves over finite fields do not satisfy any non-trivial (linear or multiplicative) rational dependency relations. This can be…
