In this article, we extend some results about algebra $A$ with the group of units $U(A)$ having a special polynomial identity, Laurent polynomial. And we present a new version of B. Hartley Conjecture with these identities.
A composition of birational maps given by Laurent polynomials need not be given by Laurent polynomials; however, sometimes---quite unexpectedly---it does. We suggest a unified treatment of this phenomenon, which covers a large class of…
We prove that number fields with arbitrary degree but weak ramification satisfy the Leopoldt conjecture on the l-adic rank of the group of units
We establish an analogue of the Goldbach conjecture for Laurent polynomials with positive integer coefficients.
We prove a function field analogue of a conjecture of Schinzel on the factorization of univariate polynomials over the rationals. We derive from it a finiteness theorem for the irreducible factorizations of the bivariate Laurent polynomials…
In a field of Laurent series, we construct a subring which has a module structure over a Weyl algebra. Identities of Bernoulli numbers and polynomials are obtained from these algebraic structures.
We show that an earlier conjecture of the author, on diophantine approximation of rational points on varieties, implies the ``abc conjecture'' of Masser and Oesterl'e. In fact, a weak form of the former conjecture is sufficient, involving…
Recently, Chapoton found a $q$-analog of Ehrhart polynomials, which are polynomials in $x$ whose coefficients are rational functions in $q$. Chapoton conjectured the shape of the Newton polygon of the numerator of the $q$-Ehrhart polynomial…
While there are many identities involving the Euler and Bernoulli numbers, they are usually proved analytically or inductively. We prove two identities involving Euler and Bernoulli numbers with combinatorial reasoning via up-down…
The Collatz conjecture is explored using polynomials based on a binary numeral system. It is shown that the degree of the polynomials, on average, decreases after a finite number of steps of the Collatz operation, which provides a weak…
Recently the problem of constructing a perfect Euler cuboid was related with three conjectures asserting the irreducibility of some certain three polynomials depending on integer parameters. In this paper a partial result toward proving the…
We introduce the antipodal pairs property for probability measures on finite Boolean algebras and prove that conditional versions imply strong forms of log-concavity. We give several applications of this fact, including improvements of some…
We prove certain identities involving Euler and Bernoulli polynomials that can be treated as recurrences. We use these and also other known identities to indicate connection of Euler and Bernoulli numbers with entries of inverses of certain…
In this paper we prove that assuming Schanuel's conjecture, an exponential polynomial in one variable over the algebraic numbers has only finitely many algebraic solutions. This implies a positive answer to Shapiro's conjecture for…
In this paper, we give a short proof of a relation generalizing many identities for Bernoulli numbers.
Enrico Bombieri proved that the ABC Conjecture implies Roth's theorem in 1994. This paper concerns the other direction. In making use of Bombieri's and Van der Poorten's explicit formula for the coefficients of the regular continued…
We revisit a subexponential bound for the $abc$ conjecture due to the first author, and we establish a variation of it using linear forms in logarithms. As an application, we prove an unconditional subexponential bound towards the $4$-terms…
We prove the "strong conjecture" expressed by Gazeau et al. in arXiv:1203.3936v1 [math-ph] about the coefficients of the Taylor expansion of the exponential of a polynomial. This implies the "weak conjecture" as a special case. The proof…
Recently N. Levin (Comp. Math. 127 (2001), 1--21) proved the Tate conjecture for ordinary cubic fourfolds over finite fields. In this paper we prove the Tate conjecture for self-products of ordinary cubic fourfolds. Our proof is based on…
Some applications of a result, which is proved recently, is considered. We first prove three determinantal identities concerning the binomial coefficient and Stirling numbers of the first and the second kind. We also easily obtain the…
