Let $K$ be a number field with the discriminant $D_K$ and the class number $h_{K}$, which has bounded degree over $\mathbb{Q}$. By assuming GRH, we prove that every ideal class of $K$ contains a prime ideal with norm less than…
Let $S=K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ be the polynomial ring over the field $K$, and let $I\subset S$ be a graded ideal. It is shown that for $k \gg0$ the postulation number of $I^k$ is bounded by a linear function of $k$, and it is a linear function…
We study the size of the set of points where the $\alpha$-divided difference of a function in the H\"older class $\Lambda_\alpha$ is bounded below by a fixed positive constant. Our results are obtained from their discrete analogues which…
For an ideal $I$ in a polynomial ring over a field, a monomial support of $I$ is the set of monomials that appear as terms in a set of minimal generators of $I$. Craig Huneke asked whether the size of a monomial support is a bound for the…
Let $D$ be a Dedekind domain with infinitely many maximal ideals, all of finite index, and $K$ its quotient field. Let $\operatorname{Int}(D) = \{f\in K[x] \mid f(D) \subseteq D\}$ be the ring of integer-valued polynomials on $D$. Given any…
For a finite abelian group $G$ and a splitting field $K$ of $G$, let $d(G, K)$ denote the largest integer $l \in \N$ for which there is a sequence $S = g_1 \cdot ... \cdot g_l$ over $G$ such that $(X^{g_1} - a_1) \cdot ... \cdot (X^{g_l} -…
Ailon and Rudnick have shown that if $a,b \in C[T]$ are multiplicatively independent polynomials, then $\deg(\gcd(a^n-1,b^n-1))$ is bounded for all $n\ge1$. We show that if instead $a,b \in F[T]$ for a finite field $F$ of characteristic…
Combining a modular approach to the $abc$ conjecture developed by the second author with the classical method of linear forms in logarithms, we obtain improved unconditional bounds for two classical problems. First, for Szpiro's conjecture…
We consider a Cartier divisor L on a d-dimensional complex projective variety X. It is well-known that the dimensions of the cohomomology groups H^i(X,O_X(mL)) grow at most like m^d, and it is natural to ask when one of these actually has…
Let D be a divisor in a complex analytic manifold X. A natural problem is to determine when the de Rham complex of meromorphic forms on X with poles along D is quasi-isomorphic to its subcomplex of logarithmic forms. In this mostly…
Let $X=\mathbb{A}^{n}$ be complex affine space, and let $T^{*}X$ be its cotangent bundle. For any exact Lagrangian $L\subset T^{*}X$, we define a new invariant, A, living in $ \text{Div}_{\mathbb{Q}/\mathbb{Z}}(L)$. We call this invariant…
We show that there are infinitely many primes $p$ such that $p-1$ is divisible by a square $d^2 \geq p^\theta$ for $\theta=1/2+1/2000.$ This improves the work of Matom\"aki (2009) who obtained the result for $\theta=1/2-\varepsilon$ (with…
Linear spaces with an Euclidean metric are ubiquitous in mathematics, arising both from quadratic forms and inner products. Operators on such spaces also occur naturally. In recent years, the study of multivariate operator theory has made…
The purpose of this note is to suggest an analogue for genus 2 curves of part of Gross and Zagier's work on elliptic curves. Experimentally, for genus 2 curves with CM by a quartic CM field K, it appears that primes dividing the…
We develop a wide general theory of bilinear bi-parameter singular integrals $T$. First, we prove a dyadic representation theorem starting from $T1$ assumptions and apply it to show many estimates, including $L^p \times L^q \to L^r$…
We notice that for $0<d\le 6$ the Poincar\'e polynomial of Simpson moduli space $M_{dm + 1}(\mathbb P_2)$ is divisible by the Poincar\'e polynomial of the projective space $\mathbb P_{3d-1}$. A somehow regular behaviour of the difference of…
Let $d,n$ be positive integers and $S$ be an arbitrary set of positive integers. We say that $d$ is an $S$-divisor of $n$ if $d|n$ and gcd $(d,n/d)\in S$. Consider the $S$-convolution of arithmetical functions given by (1.1), where the sum…
Many problems in additive number theory, such as Fermat's last theorem and the twin prime conjecture, can be understood by examining sums or differences of a set with itself. A finite set $A \subset \mathbb{Z}$ is considered sum-dominant if…
To every non-extreme point $b$ of the unit ball of $\hil^\infty$ of the unit disk there corresponds a Pythagorean mate, a bounded outer function $a$ satisfying the equation $|a|^2 + |b|^2 = 1$ on the boundary of the disk. We study…
For every positive integer $N$ we determine the Enriques--Kodaira type of the Humbert surface of discriminant $N^2$ which parametrises principally polarised abelian surfaces that are $(N,N)$-isogenous to a product of elliptic curves. A key…
