Let $p$ be a sufficiently large prime number, $r$ be any given positive integer. Suppose that $a_1,\,\dots,\,a_r$ are pairwise distinct and not zero modulo $p$. Let $N(a_1,\,\dots,\,a_r;\,p)$ denote the number of…

Recently Conrey, Farmer and Zirnbauer conjectured formulas for the averages over a family of ratios of products of shifted L-functions. Their L-functions Ratios Conjecture predicts both the main and lower order terms for many problems,…

Let $q$ be a power of a prime number $p$. Let $k=\mathbb{F}_{q}(t)$ be the rational function field with constant field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$. Let $K=k(\alpha)$ be an Artin-Schreier extension of $k$. In this paper, we explicitly describe the…

In this paper we examine Grosswald's conjecture on $g(p)$, the least primitive root modulo $p$. Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH), and building on previous work by Cohen, Oliveira e Silva and Trudgian, we resolve Grosswald's…

We formulate a general conjecture relating Chern classes of subbundles of Gauss-Manin bundles in Arakelov geometry to logarithmic derivatives of Artin L-functions of number fields. This conjecture may be viewed as a far-reaching…

We establish some new cases of Artin's conjecture. Our results apply to Galois representations over $\Q$ with image $S_5$ satisfying certain local hypotheses, the most important of which is that complex conjugation is conjugate to…

There is a natural probability measure on the set of isomorphism classes of principally polarized Abelian varieties of dimension $g$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$, weighted by the number of automorphisms. The distributions of the number of…

We present a group-theoretic criterion under which one may verify the Artin conjecture for some (non-monomial) Galois representations, up to finite height in the complex plane. In particular, the criterion applies to S5 and A5…

This paper studies the interplay between probability, number theory, and geometry in the context of relatively prime integers in the ring of integers of a number field. In particular, probabilistic ideas are coupled together with integer…

Let \(u\neq \pm 1,v^2\) be a fixed integer, let \(p\geq 2\) be a prime, and let $\text{ord}_p(u) \mid p-1$ be the multiplicative order of $u \text{ mod } p$. Define a prime counting function by $\pi(u,x)=\# \{ p\leq x:\text{ord}_p(u)=p-1…

We show that under the assumption of Artin's Primitive Root Conjecture, for all primes p there exist ordinary elliptic curves over $\bar F_p(x)$ with arbitrary high rank and constant j-invariant. For odd primes p, this result follows from a…

We prove the test function conjecture of Kottwitz and the first named author for local models of Shimura varieties with parahoric level structure attached to Weil-restricted groups, as defined by B. Levin. Our result covers the (modified)…

We prove a conjecture of Peter Neumann from 1966, predicting that every finite non-regular primitive permutation group of degree $n$ contains an element fixing at least one point and at most $n^{1/2}$ points. In fact, we prove a stronger…

In this paper, we consider rational functions $f$ with some minor restrictions over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q^n},$ where $q=p^k$ for some prime $p$ and positive integer $k$. We establish a sufficient condition for the existence of a…

We introduce a new set of prime numbers functions including an exact Generating Function and a Discriminating Function of Prime Numbers neither based on prime number tables nor on algorithms. Instead these functions are defined in terms of…

We prove a general criterion for an irrational power series $f(z)=\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}a_nz^n$ with coefficients in a number field $K$ to admit the unit circle as a natural boundary. As an application, let $F$ be a finite field,…

The main goal of this paper is to give a completely elementary proof for the decomposition theorem of Wright convex functions which was discovered by C.\ T.\ Ng in 1987. In the proof, we do not use transfinite tools, i.e., variants of…

Motivated by the Polynomial Freiman-Ruzsa (PFR) Conjecture, we develop a theory of locality in sumsets, with applications to John-type approximation and sets with small doubling. First we show that if $A \subset \mathbb{Z}$ with $|A+A| \le…

We establish the prime geodesic theorem for the modular surface with exponent $\frac{2}{3}+\varepsilon$, improving upon the long-standing exponent $\frac{25}{36}+\varepsilon$ of Soundararajan-Young (2013). This was previously known…

Let $N$ be a fixed positive integer, and let $f\in S_k(N)$ be a primitive cusp form given by the Fourier expansion $f(z)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \lambda_f(n)n^{\frac{k-1}{2}}e(nz)$. We consider the partial sum $S(x,f)=\sum_{n\leq…
