We study the relationship between the solvability of the $L^p$ Dirichlet problem $(D)_p$ and that of the $L^q$ regularity problem $(R)_q$ for second order elliptic equations with bounded measurable coefficients. It is known that the…

Given an elliptic curve $E$ and a finite Abelian group $G$, we consider the problem of counting the number of primes $p$ for which the group of points modulo $p$ is isomorphic to $G$. Under a certain conjecture concerning the distribution…

Let $p, q$ be twin prime numbers with $q-p=2$ . Consider the elliptic curves E=E_\sigma: y^2 = x (x+\sigma p)(x+\sigma q) . (\sigma =\pm 1). E=E_\sigma is also denoted as E_+ or E_- when \sigma = +1or $-1.Here the Mordell-Weil group and the…

We use Heegner points to prove the existence of nontorsion rational points on the elliptic curve $y^2 = x^3 + D$ for any rational number $D=a/b$ such that $a$ and $b$ are squarefree integers for which $6$, $a$, and $b$ are pairwise…

We determine the rational integers x,y,z such that x^3+y^9=z^2 and gcd(x,y,z)=1. First we determine a finite set of curves of genus 10 such that any primitive solution to x^3+y^9=z^2 corresponds to a rational point on one of those curves.…

David Hilbert proved that a non-negative real quartic form f(x,y,z) is the sum of three squares of quadratic forms. We give a new proof which shows that if the complex plane curve Q defined by f is smooth, then f has exactly 8 such…

We employ methods from homotopy theory to define new obstructions to solutions of embedding problems. By using these novel obstructions we study embedding problems with non-solvable kernel. We apply these obstructions to study the…

The main result of this paper is to extend from $\Q$ to each of the nine imaginary quadratic fields of class number one a result of Serre (1987) and Mestre-Oesterl\'e (1989), namely that if $E$ is an elliptic curve of prime conductor then…

Let $p$ be a prime number such that $p=2$ or $p\equiv 1\pmod 4$. Let $\varepsilon_p$ denote the fundamental unit of $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{p})$ and let $a$ be a positive square-free integer. The main aim of this paper is to determine explicitly…

One of the main open problems in the context of extensions of Hilbert's tenth problem (HTP) is the case of the ring of complex entire functions in one variable. Our main result provides a step towards an answer: For every $\rho\ge 0$, we…

We determine all groups which occur as torsion subgroups of $\mathbb Q$-curves defined over number fields of degrees $3$, $5$ and $7$. In particular, we prove that every torsion subgroup of a $\mathbb Q$-curve defined over a number field of…

Let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be an elliptic curve and $p \in \{5,7,11 \}$ be a prime. We determine the possibilities for $E(\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_{p}))_{tors}$. Additionally, we determine all the possibilities for $E(\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_{16}))_{tors}$ and…

We compute the Hilbert series of the graded algebra of regular functions on a symplectic quotient of a unitary circle representation. Additionally, we elaborate explicit formulas for the lowest coefficients of the Laurent expansion of such…

We generalize the lemmas of Thomas Kretschmer to arbitrary number fields, and apply them with a 2-descent argument to obtain bounds for families of elliptic curves over certain imaginary quadratic number fields with class number 1. One such…

Extending the idea of \cite{dab2} and using the 2-descent method, we provide three general families of elliptic curves over Q such that a positive proportion of prime-twists of such elliptic curves have rank zero simultaneously.

Let $\mathrm{k}=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt[3]{d},\zeta_3)$, with $d$ a cube-free positive integer. Let $C_{\mathrm{k},3}$ be the $3$-component of the class group of $\mathrm{k}$. By the aid of genus theory, arithmetic proprieties of the pure cubic…

This paper aims at studying the Iwasawa $\lambda$-invariant of the $p$-primary Selmer group. We study the growth behaviour of $p$-primary Selmer groups in $p$-power degree extensions over non-cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extensions of a number…

We consider the problem of classifying quadruples $(K,E,m_1,m_2)$ where $K$ is a number field, $E$ is an elliptic curve defined over $K$ and $(m_1,m_2)$ is a pair of relatively prime positive integers for which the intersection $K(E[m_1])…

We study the reciprocal position of nine points in the plane, according to their collinearities. In particular, we consider the case in which the nine points are contained in an irreducible cubic curve and we give their classification. If…
