Let $K$ be a number field and $S$ a finite set of places of $K$ that contains all of the archimedean places. Let $\varphi: \mathbb{P}^1 \to \mathbb{P}^1$ be a rational map of degree $d \geq 2$ defined over $K$. Given $\alpha \in…

Let F be a family of subsets of {1,2,...,n}. The width-degree of an element x in at least one member of F is the width of the family {U in F | x in U}. If F has maximum width-degree at most k, then F is locally k-wide. Bounds on the size of…

We obtain an analog of the prime number theorem for a class of branched covering maps on the $2$-sphere $S^2$ called expanding Thurston maps, which are topological models of some non-uniformly expanding rational maps without any smoothness…

Suppose that $G$ is a finite solvable group and $V$ is a finite, faithful and completely reducible $G$-module. Let $N$ be a nilpotent subgroup of $G$, then there exits $v \in V$ such that $|\bC_N(v)| \leq (|N|/p)^{1/p}$, where $p$ is the…

We prove a conjecture of Medvedev and Scanlon for endomorphisms of connected commutative linear algebraic groups $G$ defined over an algebraically closed field $\mathbb{k}$ of characteristic $0$. That is, if $\Phi\colon G\longrightarrow G$…

Let $K$ be a number field and $G$ a finitely generated torsion-free subgroup of $K^\times$. Given a prime $\mathfrak p$ of $K$ we denote by ${\rm ind}_{\mathfrak p}(G)$ the index of the subgroup $(G\bmod\mathfrak p)$ of the multiplicative…

Although the prime numbers are deterministic, they can be viewed, by some measures, as pseudo-random numbers. In this article, we numerically study the pair statistics of the primes using statistical-mechanical methods, especially the…

Let k be a global field, p an odd prime number different from char(k) and S, T disjoint, finite sets of primes of k. Let G_S^T(k)(p)=Gal(k_S^T(p)|k) be the Galois group of the maximal p-extension of k which is unramified outside S and…

Many interesting questions in arithmetic dynamics revolve, in one way or another, around the (local and/or global) reducibility behavior of iterates of a polynomial. We show that for very general families of integer polynomials $f$ (and,…

Let $k$ be a field with $\text{char}(k)\neq 2$. We prove that all maximal flags of composition algebras over $k$, appear as the $k$-rational $Sp_{6}$-orbits in a Zariski-dense $Sp_{6}$-invariant subset $V^{ss}\subset V=\wedge^{3}V_{6}$,…

We examine two natural operations to create numerical semigroups. We say that a numerical semigroup $\mathcal{S}$ is $k$-normalescent if it is the projection of the set of integer points in a $k$-dimensional polyhedral cone, and we say that…

The main result asserts: Let $G$ be a reductive, affine algebraic group and let $(\rho ,V)$ be a regular representation of $G$. Let $X$ be an irreducible $\mathbb{C}^{ \times } G$ invariant Zariski closed subset such that $G$ has a closed…

Given a map $\varphi:\mathbb{P}^1\rightarrow \mathbb{P}^1$ of degree greater than 1 defined over a number field $k$, one can define a map $\varphi_\mathfrak{p}:\mathbb{P}^1(\mathfrak{o}_k/\mathfrak{p})\rightarrow…

Let $p$ be a prime, let $G$ be a finite group of order divisible by $p$, and let $k$ be a field of characteristic $p$. An endotrivial $kG$-module is a finitely generated $kG$-module $M$ such that its endomorphism algebra…

We develop the affine sieve in the context of orbits of congruence subgroups of semi-simple groups acting linearly on affine space. In particular we give effective bounds for the saturation numbers for points on such orbits at which the…

We give a generalization to higher dimensions of Silverman's result on finiteness of integer points in orbits. Assuming Vojta's conjecture, we prove a sufficient condition for morphisms on P^N so that (S,D)-integral points in each orbit are…

We study statistical properties of random numerical semigroups of a given genus. We analyze the graph of a typical numerical semigroup, understood as a function from $\mathbb{N}$ to $\mathbb{N}$. If $S$ is a numerical semigroup of genus…

For each compact almost Kahler manifold $(X,\om,J)$ and an element A of $H_2(X;Z)$, we describe a closed subspace $\ov{\frak M}_{1,k}^0(X,A;J)$ of the moduli space $\ov{\frak M}_{1,k}(X,A;J)$ of stable J-holomorphic genus-one maps such that…

The adjoint action of a finite group of Lie type on its Lie algebra is studied. A simple formula is conjectured for the number of split semisimple orbits of a given genus. This conjecture is proved for type A, and partial results are…
