Let X be a projective integral normal scheme over a number field F; let L be a ample line bundle on X together with a semi-positive adelic metric in the sense of Zhang. The main results of this article are 1) A formula which computes the…

Simple minimal but informationally complete positive operator-valued measures are constructed out of the expectation-value representation for qudits. Upon suitable modification, the procedure transforms any set of d^2 linearly independent…

A minimal geodesic on a Riemannian manifold is a geodesic defined on $\mathbb{R}$ that lifts to a globally distance minimizing curve on the universal covering. Bangert proved that there is a lower bound for the number of geometrically…

Here we give a lower bound of the Mahler measure on a set of polynomials that are "almost" reciprocal. Here "almost" reciprocal means that the outermost coefficients of each polynomial mirror each other in proportion, while this pattern…

In this paper, we use some of our previous results to improve an upper bound of Bayer-Fluckiger, Borello and Jossen on the Euclidean minima of algebraic number fields. Our bound depends on the degree $n$ of the field, its signature,…

We establish a new bridge between propositional logic and elementary number theory. The main objects are "minimally unsatisfiable clause-sets", short "MUs", unsatisfiable conjunctive normal forms rendered satisfiable by elimination of any…

Let $K\subset \mathbb{C}$ be a convex compact set, and let $\Pi_n(K)$ be the class of polynomials of exact degree $n$, all of whose zeros lie in $K$. The Tur\'an type inverse Markov factor is defined by $M_n(K)=\inf_{P\in \Pi_n(K)}…

An upper bound on degrees of elements of a minimal generating system for invariants of quivers of dimension (2,...,2) is established over a field of arbitrary characteristic and its precision is estimated. The proof is based on the…

The number of non-isomorphic cubic fields L sharing a common discriminant d(L) = d is called the multiplicity m = m(d) of d. For an assigned value of d, these fields are collected in a multiplet M(d) = (L(1) ,..., L(m)). In this paper, the…

Let $K$ be a number field, and let $W$ be a subspace of $K^N$, $N \geq 1$. Let $V_1,...,V_M$ be subspaces of $K^N$ of dimension less than dimension of $W$. We prove the existence of a point of small height in $W \setminus \bigcup_{i=1}^M…

In a previous paper, the authors introduced several vector space norms on the space of algebraic numbers modulo torsion which corresponded to the Mahler measure on a certain class of numbers and allowed the authors to formulate L^p Lehmer…

Given an edge-weighted graph, how many minimum $k$-cuts can it have? This is a fundamental question in the intersection of algorithms, extremal combinatorics, and graph theory. It is particularly interesting in that the best known bounds…

Minimal codes are linear codes where all non-zero codewords are minimal, i.e., whose support is not properly contained in the support of another codeword. The minimum possible length of such a $k$-dimensional linear code over $\mathbb{F}_q$…

The `full' edge isoperimetric inequality for the discrete cube (due to Harper, Bernstein, Lindsay and Hart) specifies the minimum size of the edge boundary $\partial A$ of a set $A \subset \{0,1\}^n$, as a function of $|A|$. A weaker (but…

The minimizer of a word of size $k$ (a $k$-mer) is defined as its smallest substring of size $m$ (with $m\leq k$), according to some ordering on $m$-mers. minimizers have been used in bioinformatics -- notably -- to partition sequencing…

It is shown that if a minimal ruled surface admits a K\"ahler Yamabe minimizer, then this metric must be generalized K\"ahler-Einstein and the underlying holomorphic vector bundle of the ruled surface must be quasi-stable.

For the minimal O(N) sigma model, which is defined to be generated by the O(N) scalar auxiliary field alone, all n-point functions, till order 1/N included, can be expressed by elementary functions without logarithms. Consequently, the…

In this short note we introduce the Belyi degree of a number field K, which is the smallest degree of a dessin d'enfant having K as field of moduli. After the description of some general properties (for example, the fact that there exist…
