Let $K$ be a totally real number field and let $B$ be a totally definite quaternion algebra over $K$. In this article, given a set of representatives for ideal classes for a maximal order in $B$, we show how to construct in an efficient way…
Lagrange's four squares theorem is a classical theorem in number theory. Recently, Z.-W. Sun found that it can be further refined in various ways. In this paper we study some conjectures of Sun and obtain various refinements of Lagrange's…
An element $\alpha \in \mathbb {F}_{q^n}$ is normal over $\mathbb {F}_q$ if $\alpha$ and its conjugates $\alpha, \alpha^q, \cdots \alpha^{q^{n-1}}$ form a basis of $\mathbb {F}_{q^n}$ over $\mathbb {F}_q$. Recently, Huczynska, Mullen,…
Vanishing polynomials are polynomials over a ring which output $0$ for all elements in the ring. In this paper, we study the ideal of vanishing polynomials over specific types of rings, along with the closely related ring of polynomial…
We consider complete intersection ideals in a polynomial ring over a field of characteristic zero that are stable under the action of the symmetric group permuting the variables. We determine the possible representation types for these…
We study abelian varieties $A$ with multiplication by a totally indefinite quaternion algebra over a totally real number field and give a criterion for the existence of principal polarizations on them in pure arithmetic terms. Moreover, we…
We survey theory developed over the past 10 years of semirings which need not be additively cancellative. The main feature is a specified ``null ideal'' $\mcA_0$ of a semiring $\mcA,$ taking the place of a zero element, which permits…
In our work we study the equations of the form $aX^4+bX^2 Y^2+cY^4=dZ^2$ over Gaussian integers by a method of the resolvents. We study as a new equations $X^4+6X^2 Y^2+Y^4=Z^2$ (Mordell's equation over $\mathbb{Z}[i]$),…
Let $Q$ be a positive-definite quaternary quadratic form with prime discriminant. We give an explicit lower bound on the number of representations of a positive integer $n$ by $Q$. This problem is connected with deriving an upper bound on…
The roots of -1 in the set of biquaternions (quaternions with complex components, or complex numbers with quaternion real and imaginary parts) are studied and it is shown that there is an infinite number of non-trivial complexified…
A proposal for the matrix model formulation of the M-theory on a space with a boundary is given. A general machinery for modding out a symmetry in M(atrix) theory is used for a Z_2 symmetry changing the sign of the X_1 coordinate. The…
A rational positive-definite quadratic form is perfect if it can be reconstructed from the knowledge of its minimal nonzero value m and the finite set of integral vectors v such that f(v) = m. This concept was introduced by Voronoi and…
This article discusses the representation theory of noncommutative algebras reality-based algebras with positive degree map over their field of definition. When the standard basis contains exactly two nonreal elements, the main result…
We prove that there are at most 13 real quadratic fields that admit a ternary universal quadratic lattice, thus establishing a strong version of Kitaoka's Conjecture for quadratic fields. More generally, we obtain explicit upper bounds on…
Quotient sets have attracted the attention of mathematicians in the past three decades. The set of quotients of primes is dense in the positive real numbers and the set of all quotients of Gaussian primes is also dense in the complex plane.…
Following Bhargava and Hanke's celebrated 290-theorem, we prove a universality theorem for all positive-definite integer-valued quadratic forms that represent all positive integers coprime to $3$. In particular, if a positive-definite…
