In this paper we present a surprisingly short proof of Minkowski's second theorem. The author hopes there is no mistake in it, though the argument seems to be too plain to contain one. Also, we apply the main construction of the proof to…

Proofs that a smooth morphism is flat available in the literature are long and difficult. We give a short proof of this fact.

We present an elementary proof of Fermat's Last Theorem. No ancillary results are used, not even the most basic ones. The proof directly leads to a contradiction of the Fermat equation in the set of integers.

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we derive explicit bounds for the error terms in short interval analogues of the prime number theorem and Mertens' theorems using a smoothing argument. Our results improve upon previous bounds in both…

This paper proposes a totally constructive approach for the proof of Hilbert's theorem on ternary quartic forms. The main contribution is the ladder technique, with which the Hilbert's theorem is proved vividly.

In this paper we provide a short proof of the Riemann Hypothesis for Drinfeld modules which uses only basic notions from the theory of global function fields and of Drinfeld modules.

This expository note presents a constructive proof of Wigner's theorem using only a few basic facts about Hilbert spaces, such as the existence of orthonormal bases and the Fourier decomposition of a vector. Our proof is based on a proof by…
