Suppose $\mathbb{F}$ is a field of prime characteristic $p$ and $E$ is a finite subgroup of the additive group $(\mathbb{F},+)$. Then $E$ is an elementary abelian $p$-group. We consider two such subgroups, say $E$ and $E'$, to be equivalent…

We classify all strongly real conjugacy classes of the finite unitary group $\U(n, F_q)$ when $q$ is odd. In particular, we show that $g \in \U(n, F_q)$ is strongly real if and only if $g$ is an element of some embedded orthogonal group…

We classify the possible torsion structures of rational elliptic curves over quintic number fields. In addition, let E be an elliptic curve defined over Q and let G = E(Q)_tors be the associated torsion subgroup. We study, for a given G,…

Let $K$ be a $p$-adically closed field and $G$ a group interpretable in $K$. We show that if $G$ is definably semisimple (i.e. $G$ has no definable infinite normal abelian subgroups) then there exists a finite normal subgroup $H$ such that…

We consider the expansion of the real field by the group of rational points of an elliptic curve over the rational numbers. We prove a completeness result, followed by a quantifier elimination result. Moreover we show that open sets…

Let $\mathcal{R}$ be a finite valuation ring of order $q^r$. In this paper we generalize and improve several well-known results, which were studied over finite fields $\mathbb{F}_q$ and finite cyclic rings $\mathbb{Z}/p^r\mathbb{Z}$, in the…

In this paper, we study additively indecomposable quadratic forms over real biquadratic and simplest cubic fields. In particular, we show that over these fields, we can always find such a classical form in 2 variables, which differs from…

We construct a computable, computably categorical field of infinite transcendence degree over the rational numbers, using the Fermat polynomials and assorted results from algebraic geometry. We also show that this field has an intrinsically…

Let $q$ be an even prime power and $m\geq2$ an integer. By $\mathbb{F}_q$, we denote the finite field of order $q$ and by $\mathbb{F}_{q^m}$ its extension degree $m$. In this paper we investigate the existence of a primitive normal pair…

We show that the enumeration of linear orbits and conjugacy classes of $\mathbf{Z}$-defined unipotent groups over finite fields is "wild" in the following sense: given an arbitrary scheme $Y$ of finite type over $\mathbf{Z}$ and integer…

We show that smooth cubic hypersurfaces of dimension $n$ defined over a finite field ${\bf F}_q$ contain a line defined over ${\bf F}_q$ in each of the following cases: - $n=3$ and $q\ge 11$; - $n=4$ and $q\ne 3$; - $n\ge 5$. For a smooth…

We study the question of whether algebraic curves of a given genus g defined over a field K must have points rational over the maximal abelian extension K^{ab} of K. We give: (i) an explicit family of diagonal plane cubic curves with…

We study rationality constructions for smooth complete intersections of two quadrics over nonclosed fields. Over the real numbers, we establish a criterion for rationality in dimension four.

Let $\mathbb F_q$ denote the finite field with $q$ elements. In this paper we use the relationship between suitable polynomials and number of rational points on algebraic curves to give the exact number of elements $a\in \mathbb F_q$ for…

For each odd prime power q, we construct an infinite sequence of rational functions f(X) in F_q(X), each of which is exceptional, which means that for infinitely many n the map c-->f(c) induces a bijection of P^1(F_{q^n}). Moreover, each of…

This paper is devoted to the study of metric subregularity and strong subregularity of any positive order $q$ for set-valued mappings in finite and infinite dimensions. While these notions have been studied and applied earlier for $q=1$…

We finish the classification of finite-dimensional irreducible representations of rational Cherednik algebras $H_c(W)$ with equal parameters for exceptional Coxeter groups by resolving the last open case: when $W=E_8$ and the denominator of…

It is known that every matrix of order n over the maximal order in an algebraic number eld is a sum of k-th powers in various cases if a discriminant condition is satis ed. It has been proved by Wadikar and Katre that for every matrix of…

We provide an alternative proof that the finite rational linear combination of radicals, under certain constraint, are linearly independent over $\mathbb{Q}$.

This survey paper was primarily written as as the support for a course pesented at the JNCF2025: it aims to present some material that illustrates the kind of estimates one can obtain in effective algebraic geometry, for affine polynomial…
