In this paper we give an explicit description of the universal unitary completion of certain locally Q_p-analytic representations of GL_2(F), where F is a finite extension of Q_p (this generalizes some results of Berger-Breuil for F=Q_p).…

We classify all cubic function fields over any finite field, particularly developing a complete Galois theory which includes those cases when the constant field is missing certain roots of unity. In doing so, we find criteria which allow…

Let $P\in\mathbb{P}_1(\mathbb{Q})$ be a periodic point for a monic polynomial with coefficients in $\mathbb{Z}$. With elementary techniques one sees that the minimal periodicity of $P$ is at most $2$. Recently we proved a generalization of…

Continuing our work on group-theoretic generalizations of the prime Ax-Katz Theorem, we give a lower bound on the $p$-adic divisibility of the cardinality of the set of simultaneous zeros $Z(f_1,f_2,\ldots,f_r)$ of $r$ maps…

A set with a group action is referred to as a $G$-set, and the set of functions that commute with this action forms a monoid under function composition. This paper examines the case where the $G$-set is finite, which implies that the monoid…

Let $F$ be the finite field of order $q$ and $\M(n,r, F)$ be the set of $n\times n$ matrices of rank $r$ over the field $F$. For $\alpha\in F$ and $A\in \M(n,F)$, let $$Z^{\alpha}_{A,r}=\left\{X\in \M(n,r, F)\mid \tr(AX)=\alpha\right \}.$$…

A generating set $S$ for a group $G$ is independent if the subgroup generated by $S\setminus \{s\}$ is properly contained in $G$, for all $s \in S.$ In this paper, we study a problem proposed by Peter Glasby: we investigate finite groups,…

We survey old and recent results on the problem of finding a complete set of rules describing the behavior of the power function, i.e. the function which takes a cardinal $\kappa$ to the cardinality of its power $2^\kappa$.

In this paper we obtain the genus field of a general Kummer extension of a global rational function field. We study first the case of a general Kummer extension of degree a power of a prime. Then we prove that the genus field of a composite…

In a previous article the authors determined the best-known upper bound for the cardinality of the image set for several classes of functions, including planar functions. Here, we show that the upper bound cannot be tight for planar…

Let G=Aut_K (K(x)) be the Galois group of the transcendental degree one pure field extension K(x)/K. In this paper we describe polynomial time algorithms for computing the field Fix(H) fixed by a subgroup H < G and for computing the fixing…

Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field, and let $F/K(x)$ be a Kummer extension of function fields of genus $g$. We provide a compact and explicit description of the gap set $G(Q)$ at any totally ramified place $Q$ of the extension…

Let $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ be a finite field of characteristic $p$, and let $f \in \mathbb{F}_{q}[x]$ be a polynomial of degree $d > 0$. Denote the image set of this polynomial as $V_{f}=\{f(\alpha)\mid\alpha\in\mathbb{F}_{q}\}$ and denote the…

We provide upper bounds for the cardinality of the value set of a polynomial map in several variables over a finite field. These bounds generalize earlier bounds for univariate polynomials.

In this paper, we study the cardinality of the distance set $\Delta(A, B)$ determined by two subsets $A$ and $B$ of the $d$-dimensional vector space over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. Assuming that $A$ or $B$ lies in a $k$-coordinate plane…

We investigate the completeness of Gabor systems with respect to several classes of window functions on rational lattices. Our main results show that the time-frequency shifts of every finite linear combination of Hermite functions with…

We develop explicit formulas and algorithms for arithmetic in radical function fields K/k(x) over finite constant fields. First, we classify which places of k(x) whose local integral bases have an easy monogenic form, and give explicit…

We finish the proof of the conjecture of F. Bogomolov and F. Pop: Let $F_{1}$ and $F_{2}$ be fields finitely-generated and of transcendence degree $\geq 2$ over $k_{1}$ and $k_{2}$, respectively, where $k_{1}$ is either $\bar{\mathbb{Q}}$…

For a given number field $K$, we give a $\forall\exists\forall$-first order description of affine Darmon points over $\mathbb{P}^1_K$, and show that this can be improved to a $\forall\exists$-definition in a remarkable particular case.…

In this paper we first obtain the genus field of a finite abelian non-Kummer $l$--extension of a global rational function field. Then, using that the genus field of a composite of two abelian extensions of a global rational function field…
