Let $p>3$ be a prime, $a_1,a_2,a_3\in\Bbb Z$ and let $N_p(x^3+a_1x^2+a_2x+a_3)$ denote the number of solutions to the congruence $x^3+a_1x^2+a_2x+a_3\equiv 0\pmod p$. In this paper, we give an explicit criterion for…

We study small non-trivial solutions of quadratic congruences of the form $x_1^2+\alpha_2x_2^2+\alpha_3x_3^2\equiv 0 \bmod{q}$, with $q$ being an odd natural number, in an average sense. This extends previous work of the authors in which…

Friedlander and Iwaniec investigated integral solutions $(x_1,x_2,x_3)$ of the equation $x_1^2+x_2^2-x_3^2=D$, where $D$ is square-free and satisfies the congruence condition $D\equiv 5\bmod{8}$. They obtained an asymptotic formula for…

We consider a nonlinear Dirichlet problem driven by a variable exponent $p$-Laplacian plus an indefinite potential term. The reaction has the competing effects of a parametric concave (sublinear) term and of a convex (superlinear)…

In this paper, we prove that a quartic polynomial solution of the eikonal equation $|\nabla_x f|^2=16x^{6}$ in $\R{n}$ is either an isoparametric polynomial or congruent to a polynomial $f=(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i^2)^2-8(\sum_{i=1}^k…

Every natural number greater than $2$ can be written as the sum of a prime and a square-free number, and recent work has imposed additional divisibility conditions on the square-free number. We overcome limitations in these works to prove…

For a (positive definite and integral) quadratic form $f$, a quadratic form is said to be {\it an isolation of $f$ from its proper subforms} if it represents all proper subforms of $f$, but not $f$ itself. It was proved that the minimal…
