Graph eigenvalues are examples of totally real algebraic integers, i.e. roots of real-rooted monic polynomials with integer coefficients. Conversely, the fact that every totally real algebraic integer occurs as an eigenvalue of some finite…

A graph is called integral if all eigenvalues of its adjacency matrix consist entirely of integers. Recently, Csikvari proved the existence of integral trees of any even diameter. In the odd case, integral trees have been constructed with…

C.J. Smyth and later Flammang studied the spectrum of the Weil height in the field of all totally real numbers, establishing both lower and upper bounds for the limit infimum of the height of all totally real integers and determining…

Cantor gave in his fundamental article an elegant proof of the countability of real algebraic numbers based on a positive integer height, denoted by him as N, of integer and irreducible polynomials of given degree (denoted by him as n) with…

It has been conjectured for some time that, for any integer n\ge 2, any real number \epsilon >0 and any transcendental real number \xi, there would exist infinitely many algebraic integers \alpha of degree at most n with the property that…

A graph is called integral if all eigenvalues of its adjacency matrix consist entirely of integers. We prove that for a given nullity more than 1, there are only finitely many integral trees. It is also shown that integral trees with…

In this paper we prove that all irrational numbers from totally real cubic number fields are well approximable by rationals (i.e. the partial quotients in the continued fraction expansion of such a number are unbounded). This settles the…

If $\alpha_1,\ldots,\alpha_r$ are algebraic numbers such that $$N=\sum_{i=1}^r\alpha_i \ne \sum_{i=1}^r\alpha_i^{-1}$$ for some integer $N$, then a theorem of Beukers and Zagier gives the best possible lower bound on $$\sum_{i=1}^r\log…

A complex number $\alpha$ is said to satisfy the height reducing property if there is a finite set $F\subset \mathbb{Z}$ such that $\mathbb{Z}[\alpha]=F[\alpha]$, where $\mathbb{Z}$ is the ring of the rational integers. It is easy to see…

We count various classes of algebraic integers of fixed degree by their largest absolute value. The classes of integers considered include all algebraic integers, Perron numbers, totally real integers, and totally complex integers. We give…

Algebraic integers in totally imaginary quartic number fields are not discrete in the complex plane under a fixed embedding, which makes it impossible to visualize all integers in the plane, unlike the quadratic imaginary algebraic…

Frobenius problem and its many generalizations have been extensively studied in several areas of mathematics. We study semigroups of totally positive algebraic integers in totally real number fields, defining analogues of the Frobenius…

The main result of the paper is the classification of all (nonassociative) algebras of level two, i.e. such algebras that maximal chains of nontrivial degenerations starting at them have length two. During this classification we obtain an…

We develop the theory of ``branch algebras'', which are infinite-dimensional associative algebras that are isomorphic, up to taking subrings of finite codimension, to a matrix ring over themselves. The main examples come from groups acting…

We prove that the Pythagoras number of the ring of integers of the compositum of all real quadratic fields is infinite. The same holds for certain infinite totally real cyclotomic fields. In contrast, we construct infinite degree totally…

The height of an algebraic number $\alpha$ is a measure of how arithmetically complicated $\alpha$ is. We say $\alpha$ is totally $p$-adic if the minimal polynomial of $\alpha$ splits completely over the field $\mathbb{Q}_p$ of $p$-adic…

We generalize the absolute logarithmic Weil height from elements of the multiplicative group of algebraic numbers modulo torsion, to finitely generated subgoups. The height of a finitely generated subgroup is shown to equal the volume of a…

Let $k$ be a number field. For $\mathcal{H}\rightarrow \infty$, we give an asymptotic formula for the number of algebraic integers of absolute Weil height bounded by $\mathcal{H}$ and fixed degree over $k$.

We prove that the ring of integers in the totally real cubic subfield $K^{(49)}$ of the cyclotomic field $\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_7)$ has Pythagoras number equal to $4$. This is the smallest possible value for a totally real number field of odd…

Let $\alpha$ be a complex number. We show that there is a finite subset $F$ of the ring of the rational integers $\mathbb{Z}$, such that $F\left[ \alpha\right] =\mathbb{Z}\left[ \alpha\right]$, if and only if $\alpha$ is an algebraic number…
