Let Q be a non-singular quadratic form with integer coefficients. When Q is indefinite we provide new upper bounds for the least non-trivial integral solution to the equation Q=0. When Q is positive definite we provide improved upper bounds…
Let R be the ring of S-integers of an algebraic function field (in one variable) over a perfect field, where S is finite and not empty. It is shown that for every positive integer N there exist elements of R that can not be written as a sum…
Representation theory is shown to be incomplete in terms of enumerating all integrable limits of quantum systems. As a consequence, one can find exactly solvable Hamiltonians which have apparently strongly broken symmetry. The number of…
We consider random fields admitting a spectral representation with infinitely divisible integrator and prove some of their properties.
We consider infinite parametric families of high degree number fields composed of quadratic fields with pure cubic, pure quartic, pure sextic fields and with the so called simplest cubic, simplest quartic fields. We explicitly describe an…
In this paper we study quadratic forms which are universal when restricted to almost prime inputs, establishing finiteness theorems akin to the Conway--Schneeberger 15 theorem.
We consider representations of real forms of even degree as a linear combination of powers of real linear forms, counting the number of positive and negative coefficients. We show that the natural generalization of Sylvester's Law of…
We study the degree of irreducible morphisms in any Auslander-Reiten component of a finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field. We give a characterization for an irreducible morphism to have finite left (or right) degree.…
Let $R$ be a commutative and unital semi-local ring in which 2 is invertible. In this note, we show that anisotropic quadratic spaces over $R$ remain anisotropic after base change to any odd-degree finite \'{e}tale extension of $R$. This…
We consider generalized quadratic forms over real quadratic number fields and prove, under a natural positive-definiteness condition, that a generalized quadratic form can only be universal if it contains a quadratic subform that is…
Let $q$ be a quadratic form over a field $F$ and let $L$ be a field extension of $F$ of odd degree. It is a classical result that if $q_L$ is isotropic (resp. hyperbolic) then $q$ is isotropic (resp. hyperbolic). In turn, given two…
The Fourier transform is naturally defined for integrable functrions. Otherwise, it should be stipulated in which sense the Fourier transform is understood. We consider some class of radial and, generally saying, nonintegrable functions.…
For any given positive integer $m$ we construct certain totally positive algebraic integers $\alpha$ of a real bi-quadratic field $K$ and obtain some necessary conditions for which $m\alpha$ can not be represented as sum of integral…
A simple theorem on proportionality of indefinite real quadratic forms is proved, and is used to clarify the proof of the invariance of the interval in Special Relativity from Einstein's postulate on the universality of the speed of light;…
Given any number field, we prove that there exist arbitrarily shaped constellations consisting of pairwise non-associate prime elements of the ring of integers. This result extends the celebrated Green-Tao theorem on arithmetic progressions…
Given any polynomial with real coefficients, the existence of a real quadratic polynomial factor is proven using only basic real analysis. The aim is to provide an approachable proof to anybody who is familiar with the least upper bound…
A strong consequence of quadratic forms becoming hyperbolic over the function field of a form is established. This result is invoked to obtain a new characterisation of hyperbolicity over function fields, and to recover a number of…
An analogue of the Oppenheimer-Synder collapsing model is treated analytically, where the matter source is a scalar field with an exponential potential. An exact solution is derived followed by matching to a suitable exterior geometry, and…
The inverse scattering problem for the Schr$\mathrm{\ddot{o}}$dinger operators on the line is considered when the potential is real valued and integrable and has a finite first moment. It is shown that the potential on the line is uniquely…
The main result of this paper is that if E is a field extension of finite odd degree over a real field Q, and if E is a repeated radical extension of Q, then every intermediate field is also a repeated radical extension of Q. This paper…
