The notion of Ehrhart tensor polynomials, a natural generalization of the Ehrhart polynomial of a lattice polytope, was recently introduced by Ludwig and Silverstein. We initiate a study of their coefficients. In the vector and matrix…

This paper is devoted to the study of the following nonlocal equation: \begin{equation*} -\left(a+b\|\nabla u\|_{2}^{2(\theta-1)}\right) \Delta u =\lambda u+\alpha (I_{\mu}\ast|u|^{q})|u|^{q-2}u+(I_{\mu}\ast|u|^{p})|u|^{p-2}u \ \hbox{in} \…

A famous conjecture of Littlewood (c. 1930) concerns approximating two real numbers by rationals of the same denominator, multiplying the errors. In a lesser-known paper, Wang and Yu (1981) established an asymptotic formula for the number…

Let $\Lambda(n)$ be the von Mangoldt function, $x$ real and $2\leq y \leq x$. This paper improves the estimate on the exponential sum over primes in short intervals \[ S_k(x,y;\alpha) = \sum_{x< n \leq x+y} \Lambda(n) e\left( n^k \alpha…

We show that there are infinitely many primes of the form $X^2+(Y^2+1)^2$ and $X^2+(Y^3+Z^3)^2$. This extends the work of Friedlander and Iwaniec showing that there are infinitely many primes of the form $X^2+Y^4$. More precisely,…

We address a unification of the Schubert calculus problems solved by [A. Buch '02] and [A. Knutson-T. Tao '03]. That is, we prove a combinatorial rule for the structure coefficients in the torus-equivariant K-theory of Grassmannians with…

In 2001 Thunder gave an estimate for the number of integer solutions of decomposable form inequalities under the assumption that the forms are of finite type. The purpose of this article is to generalize this result to forms which are of…

Markov polynomials are the Laurent-polynomial solutions of the generalised Markov equation $$X^2 + Y^2 + Z^2 = kXYZ, \quad k=\frac{x^2 + y^2 + z^2}{x y z}$$ which are the results of cluster mutations applied to the initial triple $(x, y,…

We investigate the Lebesgue--Nagell equation \begin{align*} x^2-2=y^p \end{align*} in integers $x,y,p$ with $p\geq 3$ an odd prime. A longstanding folklore conjecture asserts that the only solutions are the ``trivial'' ones with $y=-1$. We…
