We give information about finite-dimensional Lie algebras and their representations for model building in 4 and 5 dimensions; e.g., conjugacy classes, types of representations, Weyl dimensional formulas, Dynkin indices, quadratic Casimir…
We study the set of algebraic numbers of bounded height and bounded degree where an analytic transcendental function takes algebraic values.
Let $k$ be a number field and $S$ a finite set of places of $k$ containing the archimedean ones. We count the number of algebraic points of bounded height whose coordinates lie in the ring of $S$-integers of $k$. Moreover, we give an…
The Upper Bound Theorem for convex polytopes implies that the $p$-th Betti number of the \v{C}ech complex of any set of $N$ points in $\mathbb R^d$ and any radius satisfies $\beta_{p} = O(N^{m})$, with $m = \min \{ p+1, \lceil d/2 \rceil…
We investigate correspondence functors, namely the functors from the category of finite sets and correspondences to the category of $k$-modules, where $k$ is a commutative ring.They have various specific properties which do not hold for…
We compute K-theory for ring C*-algebras in the case of higher roots of unity and thereby completely determine the K-theory for ring C*-algebras attached to rings of integers in arbitrary number fields.
Given an affine variety X and a finite dimensional vector space of regular functions L on X, we associate a convex body to (X, L) such that its volume is responsible for the number of solutions of a generic system of functions from L. This…
Let K be an algebraic number field. For a degree d rational morphism of projective n-space defined over K let R denote its minimal resultant ideal. For a fixed height function on the moduli space of dynamical systems this paper shows that…
We demonstrate the Batyrev-Manin Conjecture for the number of points of bounded height on hypersurfaces of some toric varieties.. The method used is inspired by the one developed by Schindler for the study the case of hypersurfaces of…
We classify $n$-representation infinite algebras $\Lambda$ of type \~A. This type is defined by requiring that $\Lambda$ has higher preprojective algebra $\Pi_{n+1}(\Lambda) \simeq k[x_1, \ldots, x_{n+1}] \ast G$, where $G \leq…
The structure of $k$-diametral point configurations in Minkowski $d$-space is shown to be closely related to the properties of $k$-antipodal point configurations in $\mathbb{R}^d$. In particular, the maximum size of $k$-diametral point…
We formulate a general problem: given projective schemes $\mathbb{Y}$ and $\mathbb{X}$ over a global field $K$ and a $K$-morphism $\eta$ from $\mathbb{Y}$ to $\mathbb{X}$ of finite degree, how many points in $\mathbb{X}(K)$ of height at…
Using the polynomial method of Dvir \cite{dvir}, we establish optimal estimates for Kakeya sets and Kakeya maximal functions associated to algebraic varieties $W$ over finite fields $F$. For instance, given an $n-1$-dimensional projective…
Let $k\ge 2$ be an integer and let $A$ be a set of nonnegative integers. The representation function $R_{A,k}(n)$ for the set $A$ is the number of representations of a nonnegative integer $n$ as the sum of $k$ terms from $A$. Let $A(n)$…
We demonstrate the Batyrev-Manin Conjecture for the number of points of bounded height on hypersurfaces of some toric varieties whose rank of the Picard group is 2. The method used is inspired by the one developed by Schindler for the study…
We design a class of Chudnovsky-type algorithms multiplying k elements of a finite extension of order n a finite field K. We prove that these algorithms give a tensor decomposition of the k-multiplication for which the rank is linear in n…
By relating the number of images of a function with finite domain to a certain parameter, we obtain both an upper and lower bound for the image set. Even though the arguments are elementary, the bounds are, in some sense, best possible. The…
Let $\cac$ be a smooth projective curve defined over a number field $k$, $A/k(\cac)$ an abelian variety and $(\tau,B)$ the $k(\cac)/k$-trace of $A$. We estimate how the rank of $A(k(\cac))/\tau B(k)$ varies when we take a finite cover…
We use the differentiability of the arithmetic volume function and an arithmetic Bertini type theorem to classify when one can find a closed point on the generic fiber of an arithmetic variety, whose heights with respect to some finite…
We give a partial answer to a question attributed to Chris Miller on algebraic values of certain transcendental functions of order less than one. We obtain C(logH)^n bounds for the number of algebraic points of height at most H on certain…
