In this article we prove lower and upper bounds for class numbers of algebraic curves defined over finite fields. These bounds turn out to be better than most of the previously known bounds obtained using combinatorics. The methods used in…

In this paper we determine sufficient conditions for a quaternion algebra to split over a quadratic field. In the last section of the paper, we find a class of division symbol algebras of degree $n$ (where $n$ is a positive integer, $n\geq…

Following the previous work of Nikulin and Agol, Belolipetsky, Storm, and Whyte it is known that there exist only finitely many (totally real) number fields that can serve as fields of definition of arithmetic hyperbolic reflection groups.…

In the present paper, we show that if the dimension of an arbitrary algebraic geometry code over a finite field of even characters is slightly less than half of its length, then it is equivalent to an Euclidean self-orthogonal code.…

The Euclidean minimum $M(K)$ of a number field $K$ is an important numerical invariant that indicates whether $K$ is norm-Euclidean. When $K$ is a non-CM field of unit rank 2 or higher, Cerri showed $M(K)$, as the supremum in the Euclidean…

We solve the problem of finding a sharp upper bound on the minimum angle formed by $N$ points in the Euclidean and Hyperbolic planes.

The main goal of this paper is to size up the minimal graded free resolution of a homogeneous ideal in terms of its generating degrees. By and large, this is too ambitious an objective. As understood, sizing up means looking closely at the…

We study the problem of bounding the least prime that does not split completely in a number field. This is a generalization of the classic problem of bounding the least quadratic non-residue. Here, we present two distinct approaches to this…

In this short note we derive, for bounded domains, an upper bound for a Friedrichs type constant in a weighted Friedrichs type inequality. This upper bound generalizes a well known upper bound of the Friedrichs constant. This upper bound is…

For each $d \in {1,2,3,7,11}$, let $T_d$ be the nearest-integer complex continued fraction map associated with the Euclidean ring $\mathcal{O}*d$, and let $(a_n)$ be its digit sequence. We prove two metric results for this five-system…

For each $n$, let RD$(n)$ denote the minimum $d$ for which there exists a formula for the general polynomial of degree $n$ in algebraic functions of at most $d$ variables. In this paper, we recover an algorithm of Sylvester for determining…

The minimal integral Mahler measure of a number field $K$, $M(\mathcal{O}_K)$, is the minimal Mahler measure of a non-torsion primitive element of $\mathcal{O}_K$. Upper and lower bounds, which depend on the discriminant, are known. We show…

We establish an explicit lower bound for the N\'eron-Tate height on elliptic curves with complex multiplication, for nontorsion points defined over the maximal abelian extension of a number field. Building on a strategy developed by…

We show that there exists an upper bound for the number of squares in arithmetic progression over a number field that depends only on the degree of the field. We show that this bound is 5 for quadratic fields, and also that the result…

We give a new lower bound for the essential minimum of subvarieties of abelian varieties with small codimension, under a conjecture about ordinary primes in abelian varieties. This lower bound is already known in the toric case since the…

We study framed surfaces, which are a class of Euclidean minimal and hyperbolic CMC-1 surfaces that generalize immersed minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ and Bryant surfaces. For this class we prove a lower bound on the (unrestricted)…

Let $n \geq 6$ be an integer. We prove that the number of number fields with Galois group $A_n$ and absolute discriminant at most $X$ is asymptotically at least $X^{1/8 + O(1/n)}$. For $n \geq 8$ this improves upon the previously best known…

In the abstract of [1] we read: "We obtain so far unproved properties of a ratio involving a classof Hermite and parabolic cylinder functions." However, we explain how some of the main results in that paper were already proved in [2],…

For a number field $K$, the Euler-Kronecker constant $\gamma_K$ associated to $K$ is an arithmetic invariant the size and nature of which is linked to some of the deepest questions in number theory. This theme was given impetus by Ihara who…

We consider heights of horizontal irreducible divisors on an arithmetic surface with respect to some hermitian line bundle. We obtain both lower and upper bounds for these heights. The results are different and sometimes stronger that those…
