In this paper we present some results related to the problem of finding periodic representations for algebraic numbers. In particular, we analyze the problem for cubic irrationalities. We show an interesting relationship between the…

The original version of this paper did not take into account that there may be solutions (x_0, y_o)in Z X Z of f(x,y) = x^3 + p(y)x + q(y) = 0 even though w_0 = (-3D(y_0))^(1/2) is irrational.

This will is an expository description of quadratic rational maps. Sections 2 through 6 are concerned with the geometry and topology of such maps. Sections 7--10 survey of some topics from the dynamics of quadratic rational maps. There are…

We study the relationship between rational points and Galois points for a plane curve over a finite field. It is known that the set of Galois points coincides with that of rational points of the projective plane if the curve is the…

In this paper, we study the existence and nonexistence of positive solutions for a coupled elliptic system with critical exponent and logarithmic terms. The presence of the the logarithmic terms brings major challenges and makes it…

In this paper we use an elementary approach by using numerical semigroups (specifically, those with two generators) to give a formula for the number of integral points inside a right-angled triangle with rational vertices. This is the basic…

Let $E:y^2=x^3+ax+b$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$. We compute certain twists of the classical modular curves $X(8)$. Searching for rational points on these twists enables us to find non-trivial pairs of $8$-congruent…

The paper concerns singular solutions of nonlinear elliptic equations.

The problem of finding perfect Euler cuboids or proving their non-existence is an old unsolved problem in mathematics. The third cuboid conjecture is the last of the three propositions suggested as intermediate stages in proving the…

We study rational points on conic bundles over elliptic curves with positive rank over a number field. We show that the etale Brauer-Manin obstruction is insufficient to explain failures of the Hasse principle for such varieties. We then…

We classify, up to some lattice-theoretic equivalence, all possible configurations of rational double points that can appear on a surface whose minimal resolution is a complex Enriques surface.

We show that even dimensional Fermat cubic hypersurfaces are rational over any field of characteristic different from three by producing explicit rational parametrizations given by polynomials of low degree. As a byproduct of our…

We study genus one curves that arise as 2-, 3- and 4-coverings of elliptic curves. We describe efficient algorithms for testing local solubility and modify the classical formulae for the covering maps so that they work in all…

We describe how the Mordell-Weil group of rational points on a certain family of elliptic curves give rise to solutions to a conjecture of Erd\"{o}s on $3$-powerful numbers, and state a related conjecture which can be viewed as an elliptic…

In this paper, we study the number of $\mathbb F_{q^n}$-rational points on the affine curve $\mathcal{X}_{d,a,b}$ given by the equation $$ y^d=ax\text{Tr}(x)+b,$$ where $\text{Tr}$ denote the trace function from $\mathbb F_{q^n}$ to…

We construct examples of nodal quartic double solids that admit uniformly rational, and so elliptic in Gromov' sense, small algebraic resolutions.

We prove a lower bound that agrees with Manin's prediction for the number of rational points of bounded height on the Fermat cubic surface. As an application we provide a simple counterexample to Manin's conjecture over the rationals.

We consider nonlinear elliptic equations which contains global coupling as a nonlinear term. We classify the existence of all possible positive solutions to this problem.

Richard Guy asked the following question: can we find a triangle with rational sides, medians, and area? Such a triangle is called a \emph{perfect triangle} and no example has been found to date. It is widely believed that such a triangle…

For every n there exists an elliptic curve E over the rational numbers and an n-dimensional subspace V of non-zero rationals modulo squares such that for all v in V, the quadratic twist of E by v has positive rank.
