Recently, the authors showed that for every irrational number $\alpha$, there exist infinitely many positive integers $n$ represented by any given positive definite binary quadratic form $Q$, satisfying $||\alpha n||<n^{-(1/2-\varepsilon)}$…
We study modular determinantal differential equations of orders 2 and 3. We show that the expansion of the analytic solution of a non-degenerate modular equation of type D3 over the rational numbers with respect to the natural parameter…
In this paper, we study the existence and qualitative properties of positive solutions to a Choquard-type equation with Hardy potential. We develop a nonlocal version of concentration-compactness principle involving the Hardy potential to…
The classification of irreducible, spherical characters of the infinite-dimensional unitary/orthogonal/symplectic groups can be obtained by finding all possible limits of normalized, irreducible characters of the corresponding…
Given a self-dual cuspidal automorphic representation for GL(2) over a number field, we establish the existence of an infinite number of Hecke eigenvalues that are greater than an explicit positive constant, and an infinite number of Hecke…
In this paper, we use the method of Thue and Siegel, based on explicit Pade approximations to algebraic functions, to completely solve a family of quartic Thue equations. From this result, we can also solve the diophantine equation in the…
Let $E_{-D}$ be the elliptic curve $y^2=x^3+Dx$ defined over $K=\mathbb{Q}(i)$ for $D\in K$ which is coprime to 2. In this paper, we give a lower bound for the 2-adic valuation of the algebraic part of the central value of Hecke…
We study the rank of the modular curve $X_0(49)$ over quadratic extensions. Assuming the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer Conjecture, we show that the rank over $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d})$ is positive if and only if the number of solutions of two…
We study the general properties of spectral curves associated to doubly-periodic solutions of Korteweg-deVries, sine-Gordon, Non-linear Schr\"odinger and 1D Toda equations, and construct examples of arbitrary genus.
This paper is a report on a computer check of some positivity properties of the Hecke algebra in type H4, including the non-negativity of the coefficients of the structure constants in the Kazhdan-Lusztig basis. This answers a long-standing…
We construct a family of infinite-dimensional positive sub-coalgebras within the Grothendieck ring of Hecke algebras, when viewed as a Hopf algebra with respect to the induction and restriction functor. These sub-coalgebras have as…
We study the elliptic curve E given by y^2=x(x+1)(x+t) over the rational function field k(t) and its extensions K_d=k(\mu_d,t^{1/d}). When k is finite of characteristic p and d=p^f+1, we write down explicit points on E and show by…
Fix an integer $d>0$. In 2008, David and Weston showed that, on average, an elliptic curve over $\mathbf{Q}$ picks up a nontrivial $p$-torsion point defined over a finite extension $K$ of the $p$-adics of degree at most $d$ for only…
We investigate the solvability of the Diophantine equation in the title, where $d>1$ is a square-free integer, $p, q$ are distinct odd primes and $x,y,a,b$ are unknown positive integers with $\gcd(x,y)=1$. We describe all the integer…
We generalise Gelfand-Graev characters to $\mathbb R/\mathbb Z$-graded Lie algebras and lift them to produce new test functions to probe the local character expansion in positive depth. We show that these test functions are well adapted to…
Let $\alpha$ and $\beta$ be irrational real numbers and $0<\F<1/30$. We prove a precise estimate for the number of positive integers $q\leq Q$ that satisfy $\|q\alpha\|\cdot\|q\beta\|<\F$. If we choose $\F$ as a function of $Q$ we get…
Let $\ k$ be a natural number and $d=k^{2}\pm 4$ or $k^{2}\pm 1$. In this paper, by using continued fraction expansion of $\sqrt{d},$ we find fundamental solution of the equations $x^{2}-dy^{2}=\pm 1$ and we get all positive integer…
We formulate and prove a large sieve inequality for quadratic characters over a number field. To do this, we introduce the notion of an n-th order Hecke family. We develop the basic theory of these Hecke families, including versions of the…
We study the existence and non-existence of positive solutions for the $(p,q)$-Laplace equation $-\Delta_p u -\Delta_q u = \alpha |u|^{p-2} u + \beta |u|^{q-2} u$, where $p \neq q$, under the zero Dirichlet boundary condition in $\Omega$.…
This note is an attempt to extend "Geometric Langlands Conjecture" from algebraic curves to algebraic surfaces. We introduce certain Hecke-type operators on vector bundles on an algebraic surface. The crucial observation is that the algebra…
