We establish bounds on a finite separable extension of function fields in terms of the relative class number, thus reducing the problem of classifying extensions with a fixed relative class number to a finite computation. We also solve the…

We count the number of isomorphism classes of degree $d$-twists of some polarized abelian varieties over finite fields of odd prime dimension. This can be seen as a higher dimensional analogue of the counting problem for elliptic curves…

Given asymptotic counts in number theory, a question of Venkatesh asks what is the topological nature of lower order terms. We consider the arithmetic aspect of the inertia stack of an algebraic stack over finite fields to partially answer…

Two well-studied Diophantine equations are those of Pythagorean triples and elliptic curves, for the first we have a parametrization through rational points on the unit circle, and for the second we have a structure theorem for the group of…

Theories of classification distinguish classes with some good structure theorem from those for which none is possible. Some classes (dense linear orders, for instance) are non-classifiable in general, but are classifiable when we consider…

We find new examples of complex surfaces with countably many non-isomorphic algebraic structures. Here is one such example: take an elliptic curve $E$ in $\mathbb P^2$ and blow up nine general points on $E$. Then the complement $M$ of the…

Booher, Cais, Kramer-Miller and Upton study a class of $\mathbf{Z}_p$-tower of curves in characteristic $p$ with ramification controlled by an integer $d$. In the special case that $d$ divides $p-1$, they prove a formula for the higher…

In this paper we give some interesting equation of p-adic q-integrals on Zp. From those p-adic q-integrals, we present a systemic study of some families of extended Carlitz q-Bernoulli numbers and polynomials in p-adic number field.

Rank computation of elliptic curves has deep relations with various unsolved questions in number theory, most notably in the congruent number problem for right-angled triangles. Similar relations between elliptic curves and Heron triangles…

We study the unit distance and distinct distances problems over the planar hypercomplex numbers: the dual numbers $\mathbb{D}$ and the double numbers $\mathbb{S}$. We show that the distinct distances problem in $\mathbb{S}^2$ behaves…

We reduce the classification of finite extensions of function fields (of curves over finite fields) with the same class number to a finite computation; complete this computation in all cases except when both curves have base field…

We consider polynomial equations, or systems of polynomial equations, with integer coefficients, modulo prime numbers $p$. We offer an elementary approach based on a counting method. The outcome is a weak form of the Lang-Weil lower bound…

We consider a special class of periodic continued fractions (called alpha-fractions) and discuss the related algebraic and geometric problems. A classical description of the Jacobi variety of a hyperelliptic curve due to Jacobi naturally…

Boundary value problems for a class of quasilinear elliptic equations, with an Orlicz type growth and L^1 right-hand side are considered. Both Dirichlet and Neumann problems are contemplated. Existence and uniqueness of generalized…

Let H(N) denote the Hurwitz class number. It is known that if $p$ is a prime, then {equation*} \sum_{|r|<2\sqrt p}H(4p-r^2) = 2p. {equation*} In this paper, we investigate the behavior of this sum with the additional condition $r\equiv…

Let $[K:\mathbb{Q}]=p$ be a prime number and let $E/K$ be an elliptic curve with $j(E) \in \mathbb{Q}$. We determine the all possibilities for $E(K)_{tors}$. We obtain these results by studying Galois representations of $E$ and of it's…

A somewhat pretentious presentation of number systems (N, Z, Q, R, C, Q_p, >...). The problem of a p-adic characterisation of good-reduction p-adic curves is posed.
