Building on the work of Yang, Key, and Muller, we investigate the spectral theory of solvable Lie algebras through their characteristic polynomials and associated spectral invariants. We begin by studying the general case: we compare two…
Let $P(x)\in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ be a polynomial with at least two distinct complex roots. We prove that the number of solutions $(x_1, \dots, x_k, y_1, \dots, y_k)\in [N]^{2k}$ to the equation \[ \prod_{1\le i \le k} P(x_i) = \prod_{1\le j \le…
Let $a,b>0$ be coprime integers. Assuming a conjecture on Hecke eigenvalues along binary cubic forms, we prove an asymptotic formula for the number of primes of the form $ax^2+by^3$ with $x \leq X^{1/2}$ and $y \leq X^{1/3}$. The proof…
In this paper we completely solve a simple quartic family of Thue equations over $\mathbb{C}(T)$. Specifically, we apply the ABC-Theorem to find all solutions $(x,y) \in \mathbb{C}[T] \times \mathbb{C}[T]$ to the set of Thue equations…
We consider small solutions of quadratic congruences of the form $x_1^2+\alpha_2x_2^2+\alpha_3x_3^2\equiv 0 \bmod{q}$, where $q=p^m$ is an odd prime power. Here, $\alpha_2$ is arbitrary but fixed and $\alpha_3$ is variable, and we assume…
We study small non-trivial solutions of quadratic congruences of the form $x_1^2+\alpha_2x_2^2+\alpha_3x_3^2\equiv 0 \bmod{q}$, with $q$ being an odd natural number, in an average sense. This extends previous work of the authors in which…

Twisting a binary form $F_0(X,Y)\in{\mathbb{Z}}[X,Y]$ of degree $d\ge 3$ by powers $\upsilon^a$ ($a\in{\mathbb{Z}}$) of an algebraic unit $\upsilon$ gives rise to a binary form $F_a(X,Y)\in{\mathbb{Z}}[X,Y]$. More precisely, when $K$ is a…
For positive integers $n>k$, let $P_{n,k}(x)=\displaystyle\sum_{j=0}^k \binom{n}{j}x^j $ be the polynomial obtained by truncating the binomial expansion of $(1+x)^n$ at the $k^{th}$ stage. These polynomials arose in the investigation of…
In this paper, we introduce a new and direct approach to study the solvability of systems of equations generated by bilinear forms. More precisely, let $B (\cdot, \cdot)$ be a non-degenerate bilinear form and $E$ be a set in…
R\"ockner and Zhang in [27] proved the existence of a unique strong solution to a stochastic tamed 3D Navier-Stokes equation in the whole space and for the periodic boundary case using a result from [31]. In the latter case, they also…
We are interested in the existence of normalized solutions to the problem \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} (-\Delta)^m u+\frac{\mu}{|y|^{2m}}u + \lambda u = g(u), \quad x = (y,z) \in \mathbb{R}^K \times \mathbb{R}^{N-K}, \\…
The Laguerre functions $l_{n,\tau}^\alpha$, $n=0,1,\dots$, are constructed from generalized Laguerre polynomials. The functions $l_{n,\tau}^\alpha$ depend on two parameters: scale $\tau>0$ and order of generalization $\alpha>-1$, and form…
\begin{abstract} This paper deals with an extremal problem for bounded harmonic functions in the unit ball $\mathbb{B}^n.$ We solve the Khavinson conjecture in $\mathbb{R}^3,$ an intriguing open question since 1992 posed by D. Khavinson,…
We study systems of parameters over finite fields from a probabilistic perspective, and use this to give the first effective Noether normalization result over a finite field. Our central technique is an adaptation of Poonen's closed point…
Let $F \in \mathbb Z[x, y]$ be an irreducible binary form of degree $d \geq 7$ and content one. Let $\alpha$ be a root of $F(x, 1)$ and assume that the field extension $\mathbb Q(\alpha)/\mathbb Q$ is Galois. We prove that, for every…
