A longstanding and important problem in algebraic geometry is the characterization of algebraic function fields. In this paper, we focus on the characterization problem for cyclotomic function field $L(\Lambda_M)$, which is an important…
By means of the $q$-Zeilberger algorithm, we prove a basic hypergeometric supercongruence modulo the fifth power of the cyclotomic polynomial $\Phi_n(q)$. This result appears to be quite unique, as in the existing literature so far no basic…
The factorizations of the polynomial $X^n-1$ and the cyclotomic polynomial $\Phi_n$ over a finite field $\mathbb F_q$ have been studied for a very long time. Explicit factorizations have been given for the case that $\mathrm{rad}(n)\mid…
For an integer $M\geq 2$ and a finite group $G$, an element $\alpha\in G$ is called an $M$-th power if it satisfies $A^M=\alpha$ for some $A\in G$. In this article, we will deal with the case when $G$ is finite symplectic or orthogonal…
For an integer $m\geq 2$, we aim to investigate the realizability of types of metacyclic-nonmodular groups, whose abelianization is $\mathbb{Z}/2 \mathbb{Z}\times\mathbb{Z}/2^m \mathbb{Z}$, as the Galois group of the maximal unramified…
We present a multivariate generating function for all n x n nonnegative integral matrices with all row and column sums equal to a positive integer t, the so called semi-magic squares. As a consequence we obtain formulas for all coefficients…
In this work we prove a version of the Sylvester-Gallai theorem for quadratic polynomials that takes us one step closer to obtaining a deterministic polynomial time algorithm for testing zeroness of $\Sigma^{[3]}\Pi\Sigma\Pi^{[2]}$…
Let $\lambda \in \mathbb{Q}\setminus \{0, -1\}$ and $l \geq 2$. Denote by $C_{l,\lambda}$ the nonsingular projective algebraic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ with affine equation given by $$y^l=(x-1)(x^2+\lambda).$$ In this paper we give a…
Let $\mathbb{F}$ be an infinite field with characteristic different from two. For a graph $G=(V,E)$ with $V={1,...,n}$, let $S(G;\mathbb{F})$ be the set of all symmetric $n\times n$ matrices $A=[a_{i,j}]$ over $\mathbb{F}$ with…
The dominant theme of this thesis is the construction of matrix representations of finite solvable groups using a suitable system of generators. For a finite solvable group $G$ of order $N = p_{1}p_{2}\dots p_{n}$, where $p_{i}$'s are…
Generalized quasi-cyclic (GQC) codes with arbitrary lengths over the ring $\mathbb{F}_{q}+u\mathbb{F}_{q}$, where $u^2=0$, $q=p^n$, $n$ a positive integer and $p$ a prime number, are investigated. By the Chinese Remainder Theorem,…
Let $\Gamma$ be a cocompact, oriented Fuchsian group which is not on an explicit finite list of possible exceptions and $q$ a sufficiently large prime power not divisible by the order of any non-trivial torsion element of $\Gamma$. Then…
We construct an extension of Gaussian elimination to show that if $\mathbb{F}$ is a topological field, then there is a transitive, free, and continuous action of a natural quotient of $GL_k(\mathbb{F}) \times GL_{k+1}(\mathbb{F})$ on the…
In this paper, we confirm the following conjecture of Guo and Schlosser: for any odd integer $n>1$ and $M=(n+1)/2$ or $n-1$, $$ \sum_{k=0}^{M}[4k-1]_{q^2}[4k-1]^2\frac{(q^{-2};q^4)_k^4}{(q^4;q^4)_k^4}q^{4k}\equiv…
It is known that every matrix of order n over the maximal order in an algebraic number eld is a sum of k-th powers in various cases if a discriminant condition is satis ed. It has been proved by Wadikar and Katre that for every matrix of…
Let G:=SO(n,1)^\circ and \Gamma be a geometrically finite Zariski dense subgroup with critical exponent delta bigger than (n-1)/2. Under a spectral gap hypothesis on L^2(\Gamma \ G), which is always satisfied for delta>(n-1)/2 for n=2,3 and…
We study the structure of nilpotent subsemigroups in the semigroup $M(n,\mathbb{F})$ of all $n\times n$ matrices over a field, $\mathbb{F}$, with respect to the operation of the usual matrix multiplication. We describe the maximal…
For a prime power \( q \) and a positive integer \( n \), a subspace \( U \subseteq \mathbb{F}_q^n \) is called cyclically covering if the union of all its cyclic shifts covers the whole space \( \mathbb{F}_q^n \). Let \( h_q(n) \) denote…
Gauss hypergeometric functions with a dihedral monodromy group can be expressed as elementary functions, since their hypergeometric equations can be transformed to Fuchsian equations with cyclic monodromy groups by a quadratic change of the…
