We obtain an analog of the prime number theorem for a class of branched covering maps on the $2$-sphere $S^2$ called expanding Thurston maps, which are topological models of some non-uniformly expanding rational maps without any smoothness…

In [GTZ08, GTZ12], the following result was established: given polynomials $f,g\in\mathbb{C}[x]$ of degrees larger than $1$, if there exist $\alpha,\beta\in\mathbb{C}$ such that their corresponding orbits $\mathcal{O}_f(\alpha)$ and…

We show, under some natural restrictions, that some semigroup orbits of polynomials cannot contain too many elements of small multiplicative order modulo a large prime $p$, extending previous work of Shparlinski (2017).

We use the Euler characteristic of the orbit category of a finite group to establish equivalences between theorems of Frobenius and K.S. Brown and between theorems of Steinberg and L. Solomon.

Linear differential equations with polynomial coefficients over a field $K$ of positive characteristic $p$ with local exponents in the prime field have a basis of solutions in the differential extension $\mathcal{R}_p=K(z_1, z_2,…

Let $F : \mathrm{End}_{\mathbb{F_p}}(\mathbb{G}_{a/K}^d)$ be an additive polynomial mapping over a global function field $K/\mathbb{F}_q$, and let $P \in \mathbb{G}_a^d(K)$. Following Silverman, consider $\delta := \lim_{n \in \mathbb{N}}…

Silverman proved the analogue of Zsigmondy's Theorem for elliptic divisibility sequences. For elliptic curves in global minimal form, it seems likely this result is true in a uniform manner. We present such a result for certain infinite…

It is shown that two vectors with coordinates in the finite $q$-element field of characteristic $p$ belong to the same orbit under the natural action of the symmetric group if each of the elementary symmetric polynomials of degree…

We prove finiteness results on integral points on complements of large divisors in projective varieties over finitely generated fields of characteristic zero. To do so, we prove a function field analogue of arithmetic finiteness results of…

Our main result is elementary and concerns the relationship between the multiplicative groups of the coordinate and endomorphism rings of the formal additive group over a field of characteristic $p>0$. The proof involves the combinatorics…

We study the distribution of periodic points for a wide class of maps, namely entire transcendental functions of finite order and with bounded set of singular values, or compositions thereof. Fix $p\in\N$ and assume that all dynamic rays…

The first part is expository: it explains how finite fields may be used to prove theorems on infinite fields by a reduction mod p process. The second part gives a variant of P.Smith's fixed point theorem which applies in any characteristic.

Answering a question posed by Adam Epstein, we show that the collection of conjugacy classes of polynomials admitting a parabolic fixed point and at most one infinite critical orbit is a set of bounded height in the relevant moduli space.…

In this article we consider some questions raised by F. Benoist, E. Bouscaren and A. Pillay. We prove that infinitely $p$-divisible points on abelian varieties defined over function fields of transcendence degree one over a finite field are…

Using aritmethic conditions on affine semigroups we prove that for a simplicial toric variety of codimension 2 the property of being a set-theoretic complete intersection on binomials in characteristic $p$ holds either for all primes $p$,…

For small odd primes $p$, we prove that most of the rational points on the modular curve $X_0(p)/w_p$ parametrize pairs of elliptic curves having infinitely many supersingular primes. This result extends the class of elliptic curves for…

This paper works out the structure of singular points of p-adic differential equations (i.e. differential modules over the ring of functions analytic in some annulus with external radius 1). Surprisingly results look like in the formal case…

Using polynomial evaluation, we give some useful criteria to answer questions about divisibility of polynomials. This allows us to develop interesting results concerning the prime elements in the domain of coefficients. In particular, it is…

We describe the ideals, especially the prime ideals, of semirings of polynomials over layered domains, and in particular over supertropical domains. Since there are so many of them, special attention is paid to the ideals arising from…

We consider indecomposable representations of the Klein four group over a field of characteristic $2$ and of a cyclic group of order $pm$ with $p,m$ coprime over a field of characteristic $p$. For each representation we explicitly describe…
