A k-uniform hypergraph is algebraic if its vertex set is n-dimensional Euclidean space, for some n, and its hyperedge set is defined from the zero set of some polynomial. The chromatic numbers of all algebraic hypergraphs are determined,…

We begin by defining general hypergeometric functions over finite fields and obtaining a finite field analogue of a classical symmetry in their complex counterparts. We give a geometric proof for the symmetry by constructing isomorphisms…

For any finite field $\mathbb{F}$ and any positive integer $n$ we count the number of monic polynomials of degree $n$ over $\mathbb{F}$ with nonzero constant coefficient and a self-reciprocal factor of any specified degree. An application…

We present some results about the number of rational points on a certain family of curves defined over a finite field. In a small number of cases the curves have more rational points than expected. Fibonacci numbers make an appearance, as…

In this paper the number of $\bar{\mathbb{F}}_q$-isomorphism classes of general Jacobi quartic curves, i.e., the number of general Jacobi quartic curves with distinct $j$-invariants, over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ is enumerated.

For a given conic bundle X over a curve C defined over F_q, we count irreducible branch covers of C in X of degree d and height e>>1. As a special case, we get the number of algebraic numbers of degree d and height e over the function field…

Let X,Y be algebraic curves in P^n over C. We give an effective description of the join J(X,Y)\in P^n of X and Y in terms of local parametrizations of X and Y.

We identify the algebra of regular functions on the space of quartic polynomials in three complex variables invariant under SL(3,C) with an algebra of meromorphic automorphic forms on the complex 6-ball. We also discuss the underlying…

We find a closed formula for the number $\operatorname{hyp}(g)$ of hyperelliptic curves of genus $g$ over a finite field $k=\mathbb{F}_q$ of odd characteristic. These numbers $\operatorname{hyp}(g)$ are expressed as a polynomial in $q$ with…

We show that if $K$ is an arbitrary field and $G$ is a finite group then there exists a curve over $K$ with automorphism group $G$. We also give a positive solution to the weak inverse Galois problem for function fields over an arbitrary…

We study a particular plane curve over a finite field whose normalization is of genus 0. The number of rational points of this curve achieves the Aubry-Perret bound for rational curves. The configuration of its rational points and a…

Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field with an absolute value. This note gives an elementary proof of the classical result that the roots of a polynomial with coefficients in $K$ are continuous functions of the coefficients of the…

We show that transcendental curves in $\mathbb R^n$ (not necessarily compact) have few rational points of bounded height provided that the curves are well behaved with respect to algebraic sets in a certain sense and can be parametrized by…

We consider cubic polynomials f(z)=z^3+az+b defined over the function field C(L), with a marked point of period N and multiplier L. In the case N=1, there are infinitely many such objects, and in the case N>2, only finitely many. The case…

We determine all modular curves $X_0(N)$ with infinitely many quartic points. To do this, we define a pairing that induces a quadratic form representing all possible degrees of a rational morphism from $X_0(N)$ to a positive rank elliptic…

computable functions are defined by abstract finite deterministic algorithms on many-sorted algebras. We show that there exist finite universal algebraic specifications that specify uniquely (up to isomorphism) (i) all abstract computable…

Motivated by the analogy between number fields and function fields, this paper extends the main result of \cite{janbazi2025unified} to the function field setting. Let $C$ be a smooth affine curve over a finite field, and let $\pi: S…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, $k$ be its function field, and $G$ be a simply connected almost simple split group over $\mathbb{F}_q$. We also write $G$ for its structure over $k$. We calculate the…

We consider the expansion of the real field by the group of rational points of an elliptic curve over the rational numbers. We prove a completeness result, followed by a quantifier elimination result. Moreover we show that open sets…
