The purpose of this short note is to demonstrate how some techniques from additive combinatorics recently developed by Peluse and Peluse-Prendiville can be applied to give an alternative proof for a trilinear smoothing inequality originally…

We aim at giving a rigorous proof of the state-ments on the smoothness and the dimension of Severi varieties wherethere are gaps in the proofs in some standard literature. The method isa mixture of algebraic and analytic methods.

These course notes are about computing modular forms and some of their arithmetic properties. Their aim is to explain and prove the modular symbols algorithm in as elementary and as explicit terms as possible, and to enable the devoted…

The proof of Brouwer's fixed-point theorem based on Sperner's lemma is often presented as an elementary combinatorial alternative to advanced proofs based on algebraic topology. The goal of this note is to show that: (i) the combinatorial…

I review the construction of Simplified Models for Dark Matter searches. After discussing the philosophy and some simple examples, I turn the attention to the aspect of the theoretical consistency and to the implications of the necessary…

The main purpose of this paper is to propose some interesting number theory problems related to the Legendre's symbol and the two-term exponential sums.

Updated version of 2013 Arizona WInter School notes on modularity lifting theorems for for two-dimensional p-adic representations, using wherever possible arguments that go over to the n-dimensional (self-dual) case.

In this note, simple proofs of certain well-known results involving the positive square root of positive matrices are given.

The Serre conjecture II predicts that every torsor under a semisimple, simply connected, algebraic group over a field of cohomological dimension at most 2 and of degree of imperfection at most 1 has a rational point. We generalize this…

The aim of this paper is twofold. The first is to give a quantitative version of Schmidt's subspace theorem for arbitrary families of higher degree polynomials. The second is to give a generalization of the subspace theorem for arbitrary…

The main purpose of this Note is to provide a non-trivial bound on certain Kloosterman sums as considered in the recent paper of E. Fouvry [F], leading to a small improvement of his result on the Pell equation.

In this note we provide some results related to the Koethe conjecture and exhibit that the condition R satisfies the Koethe conjecture given in [2, theorem 2.6 ] is superfluous at least under certain conditions described in this note.

The aim of this short note is to extend results by Denef and Loughran, Skorobogatov, Smeets concerning refinements of a conjecture of Colliot-Thelene. The problem is about giving necessary and sufficient conditions for morphisms of…

We present a slightly simpler proof of the multilinear refined Strichartz estimate, and prove a slightly more general linear refined Strichartz estimate. Our arguments seek to clarify the connection between these estimates, refined…

Proving that a finitely generated convex cone is closed is often considered the most difficult part of geometric proofs of Farkas' lemma. We provide a short simple proof of this fact and (for completeness) derive Farkas' lemma from it using…

Let R be a commutative ring with identity and M be an R-module. The main purpose of this paper is to introduce and study the notion of $\psi$-second submodules of an R-module M.

This is a short expository account of the regularity lemma for stable graphs proved by the authors, with some comments on the model theoretic context, written for a general logical audience.

We introduce a semi-explicit time-stepping scheme of second order for linear poroelasticity satisfying a weak coupling condition. Here, semi-explicit means that the system, which needs to be solved in each step, decouples and hence improves…
