Inspired by the invariant of a number field given by its zeta function, we define the notion of {\it weak arithmetic equivalence}, and show that under certain ramification hypothesis, this equivalence determines the local root numbers of…

For $p$ prime and $\ell = \frac{p-1}{2}$, we show that the shapes of pure prime degree number fields lie on one of two $\ell$-dimensional subspaces of the space of shapes, and which of the two subspaces is dictated by whether or not $p$…

Let K be a number field, let f(x) in K(x) be a rational function of degree d> 1, and let z in K be a wandering point such that f^n(z) is nonzero for all n > 0. We prove that if the abc-conjecture holds for K, then for all but finitely many…

We propose a conjecture on the density of arithmetic points in the deformation space of representations of the \'etale fundamental group in positive characteristic. This? conjecture has applications to \'etale cohomology theory, for example…

Let $k\in\mathbb{N}$ and let $f_1,\ldots,f_k$ belong to a Hardy field. We prove that under some natural conditions on the $k$-tuple $(f_1,\ldots,f_k)$ the density of the set $$ \big\{n\in \mathbb{N}: \text{gcd}(n,\lfloor…

In spite of the Lebesgue density theorem, there is a positive $\delta$ such that, for every non-trivial measurable set $S$ of real numbers, there is a point at which both the lower densities of $S$ and of the complement of $S$ are at least…

In this paper we introduce new densities on the set of primes of a number field. If $K/K_0$ is a Galois extension of number fields, we associate to any element $x \in {\rm Gal}_{K/K_0}$ a density $\delta_{K/K_0,x}$ on primes of $K$. In…

We establish upper bounds for the smallest height of a generator of a number field $k$ over the rational field $\Q$. Our first bound applies to all number fields $k$ having at least one real embedding. We also give a second conditional…

In this article we show how the Dedekind-Hasse criterion may be applied to prove a simple result about quadratic number fields that usually is derived as a consequence of the theory of ideals and ideal classes.

For a square-free integer $t$, Byeon \cite{byeon} proved the existence of infinitely many pairs of quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{D})$ and $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{tD})$ with $D > 0$ such that the class numbers of all of them are indivisible…

We prove a new effective Chebotarev density theorem for Galois extensions $L/\mathbb{Q}$ that allows one to count small primes (even as small as an arbitrarily small power of the discriminant of $L$); this theorem holds for the Galois…

We obtain a necessary and sufficient condition in order that a semi-plane of the form $\Re(s)>r$, $r\in \mathbb{R}$, is free of zeros of a given Dirichlet polynomial. The result may be considered a natural generalization of a well-known…

Given a dominant rational self-map on a projective variety over a number field, we can define the arithmetic degree at a rational point. It is known that the arithmetic degree at any point is less than or equal to the first dynamical…

We fix a number field $K$ and study statistical properties of the ring $\mathcal{O}_K[\gamma]\cap K$ as $\gamma$ varies over algebraic numbers of a fixed degree $n\geq 2$. Given $k\geq 1$, we explicitly compute the density of $\gamma$ for…

We study four (families of) sets of algebraic integers of degree less than or equal to three. Apart from being simply defined, we show that they share two distinctive characteristics: almost uniformity and arithmetical independence. Here,…

The purpose of this note is to introduce a new approach to the study of one of the most basic and seemingly intractable problems in partition theory, namely the conjecture that the partition function $p(n)$ is equidistributed modulo 2. Our…

Dirichlet's Lemma states that every primitive quadratic Dirichlet character $\chi$ can be written in the form $\chi(n) = (\frac{\Delta}n)$ for a suitable quadratic discriminant $\Delta$. In this article we define a group, the separant class…

We exhibit large values of the Dedekind zeta function of a cyclotomic field on the critical line. This implies a dichotomy whereby one either has improved lower bounds for the maximum of the Riemann zeta function, or large values of…

A simple condition is given that is sufficient to determine whether a measure that is absolutely continuous with respect to a Gau{\ss}ian measure on the space of distributions is reflection positive. It readily generalises conventional…

For a field $\mathbb{F}$ and integers $d$ and $k$, a set of vectors of $\mathbb{F}^d$ is called $k$-nearly orthogonal if its members are non-self-orthogonal and every $k+1$ of them include an orthogonal pair. We prove that for every prime…
