Let $F$ be a totally real number field of class number one, and let $K$ be a CM-field with $F$ as its maximal real subfield. For each positive integer $N$, we construct a class group of certain binary quadratic forms over $F$ which is…

For nonautonomous linear difference equations, we introduce the notion of the so-called nonuniform dichotomy spectrum and prove a spectral theorem. Moreover, we introduce the notion of weak kinematical similarity and prove a reducibility…

Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field and $\mathcal{O}$ be an order in $K$. We construct class fields associated with form class groups which are isomorphic to certain $\mathcal{O}$-ideal class groups in terms of the theory of canonical…

We introduce and study a natural class of fields in which certain first-order definable sets are existentially definable, and characterise this class by a number of equivalent conditions. We show that global fields belong to this class, and…

It is shown that the sum of class numbers of orders in totally complex quartic fields with no real quadratic subfield obeys an asymptotic law similar to the prime numbers, as the bound on the regulators tends to infinity. Here only orders…

In this work, we compute the perfect forms for all imaginary quadratic fields of absolute discriminant up to $5000$ and study the number and types of the polytopes that arise. We prove a bound on the combinatorial types of polytopes that…

A new hierarchy of "exact" unification types is introduced, motivated by the study of admissibility for equational classes and non-classical logics. In this setting, unifiers of identities in an equational class are preordered, not by…

We outline a general strategy developed for the analysis of critical models, which we apply to obtain a heuristic classification of all universality classes with up to three field-theoretical scalar order parameters in $d=6-\epsilon$…

In this semi-expository paper we review the notion of a spherical space. In particular we present some recent results of Wedhorn on the classification of spherical spaces over arbitrary fields. As an application, we introduce and classify…

We derive universal formulae for integrating out heavy degrees of freedom in scalar field theories up to one-loop level in terms of covariant quantities associated with the geometry of the field manifold. The universal matching results can…

For nonautonomous linear differential equations with nonuniform hyperbolicity, we introduce a definition for nonuniform dichotomy spectrum, which can be seen as a generalization of Sacker-Sell spectrum. We prove a spectral theorem and use…

Nonuniformity is a central concept in computational complexity with powerful connections to circuit complexity and randomness. Nonuniform reductions have been used to study the isomorphism conjecture for NP and completeness for larger…

The superselection sectors of two classes of scalar bilocal quantum fields in D>=4 dimensions are explicitly determined by working out the constraints imposed by unitarity. The resulting classification in terms of the dual of the respective…

We formulate explicitly the necessary and sufficient conditions for the local invertibility of a field transformation involving derivative terms. Our approach is to apply the method of characteristics of differential equations, by treating…

For any positive integer M we show that there are infinitely many real quadratic fields that do not admit M-ary universal quadratic forms (without any restriction on the parity of their cross coefficients).

We introduce and study a new class of differential fields in positive characteristic. We call them separably differentially closed fields and demonstrate that they are the differential analogue of separably closed fields. We prove several…

Based on the simple and well understood concept of subfields in a finite field, the technique called `field reduction' has proved to be a very useful and powerful tool in finite geometry. In this paper we elaborate on this technique. Field…

We show that if a universal quadratic form exists over an infinite degree, totally real extension of the field of rationals $\mathbb{Q}$, then the set of totally positive integers in the extension does not have the Northcott property. In…

Directional fields, including unit vector, line, and cross fields, are essential tools in the geometry processing toolkit. The topology of directional fields is characterized by their singularities. While singularities play an important…

We investigate fields in which addition requires three summands. These ternary fields are shown to be isomorphic to the set of invertible elements in a local ring $\mathcal{R}$ having $\mathbb{Z}\diagup 2\mathbb{Z}$ as a residual field. One…
