This paper gives an overview of $\left(p,q\right)$-adic Fourier theory - the Fourier theory of functions from the $p$-adic numbers to the $q$-adic numbers, where $p$ and $q$ are distinct primes - which we then use to prove a novel…
Using $p$-adic numbers, we partially categorize the cycles of a sizable class of polynomial dynamical systems. In turn, we prove a few results related to the non-trivial cycles of the $\textit{Collatz map}$ $\text{Col} : \mathbb{Z}_+ \to…
In this article, we define a new k-adic series transformation called Z-transformation and probe into its fixed point and periodicity. We extend the number field of the transform period problem to a wider k-adic field. Different constraints…
We investigate the problems related to the Collatz map $T$ from the point of view of functional analysis. We associate with $T$ certain linear operator $\mathcal{T}$ and show that cycles and (hypothetical) diverging trajectory (generated by…
This article introduces a new kind of number systems on $p$-adic integers which is inspired by the well-known $3n+1$ conjecture of Lothar Collatz. A $p$-adic system is a piecewise function on $\mathbb{Z}_p$ which has branches for all…
In this article, we give an explicit construction of the $p$-adic Fourier transform by Schneider and Teitelbaum, which allows for the investigation of the integral property. As an application, we give a certain integral basis of the space…
In the paper, from the point of view of recurrent numbers of the Jacobsthal type, the Collatz problem with the general aq+-1 function of conjecture odd positive integers q from the set of natural numbers is investigated. Formulated…
We develop a $p$-adic theory of periods for 1-motives, extending the classical theory of complex periods into the non-archimedean setting. For 1-motives with good reduction over $p$-adic local fields, we construct a $p$-adic integration…
Let $L$ be a field of characteristic zero, let $h:\mathbb{P}^1\to \mathbb{P}^1$ be a rational map defined over $L$, and let $c\in \mathbb{P}^1(L)$. We show that there exists a finitely generated subfield $K$ of $L$ over which both $c$ and…
The aim of this paper is to prove conjectures concerning $p$-adic valuations of Stirling numbers of the second kind $S(n,k)$, $n,k\in\mathbb{N}_+$, stated by Amdeberhan, Manna and Moll and Berrizbeitia et al., where $p$ is a prime number.…
Solutions of the quartic Fermat equation in ring class fields of odd conductor over quadratic fields $K=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-d})$ with $-d \equiv 1$ (mod $8$) are shown to be periodic points of a fixed algebraic function $T(z)$ defined on the…
Given primes $\ell\ne p$, we record here a $p$-adic valued Fourier theory on a local field over $\mathbf{Q}_\ell$, which is developed under the perspective of group schemes. As an application, by substituting rigid analysis for complex…
We prove a special case of a dynamical analogue of the classical Mordell-Lang conjecture. In particular, let $\phi$ be a rational function with no superattracting periodic points other than exceptional points. If the coefficients of $\phi$…
Let p be an odd prime, and consider the map H_p which sends an integer x to either x/2 or (px+1)/2 depending on whether x is even or odd. The values at x=0 of arbitrary composition sequences of the maps x/2 and (px+1)/2 can be parameterized…
The functional equation f(p(z))=g(q(z)) is studied, where p,q are polynomials and f,g are trancendental meromorphic functions in C. We find all the pairs p,q for which there exist nonconstant f,g satisfying our equation and there exist no…
For $q$ a prime power and $\phi$ a rational function with coefficients in $\mathbb{F}_q$, let $p(q,\phi)$ be the proportion of $\mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{F}_q)$ that is periodic with respect to $\phi$. And if $d$ is a positive integer, let $Q_d$…
In this paper, we study Frobenius structures in higher dimensional $p$-adic analytic geometry and the corresponding $p$-adic functional analysis. This will build up foundations for further study on some generalized cohomology of Frobenius…
Transposed Poisson algebra was introduced as a dual notion of the Poisson algebra by switching the roles played by the commutative associative operation and Lie operation in the Leibniz rule defining the Poisson algebra. Let $H$ be a Hopf…
