An irreducible quintic equation is solvable by radicals if and only if its Galois group is solvable. In this work, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for solvability, expressed in terms of invariants of the quintic.
Let $\ell$ be a prime number, $F$ be a global function field of characteristic $\ell$. Assume that there is a prime $P_\infty$ of degree $1$. Let $\mathcal{O}_F$ be the ring of functions in $F$ with no poles outside of $\{P_\infty\}$. We…
We consider an elliptic differential inequality: $\vert \Delta u(x) \vert \le C_0(\YYYY^{-\gamma}\vert u(x)\vert + \YYYY^{-\theta}\vert \nabla u(x)\vert)$ in an exterior domain $\R^n \setminus \ooo{U}$, where $U$ is a simply connected…
We describe a strategy to attack infinitely many Fermat-type equations of signature $(r,r,p)$, where $r \geq 7$ is a fixed prime and $p$ is a prime allowed to vary. We use a variant of the modular method over totally real subfields of…

In this paper, we give a resolution of the generalized Fermat equations $$x^5 + y^5 = 3 z^n \text{ and } x^{13} + y^{13} = 3 z^n,$$ for all integers $n \ge 2$, and all integers $n \ge 2$ which are not a multiple of $7$, respectively, using…

The main goal of this article is to study the existence of a unique positive definite common solution to a pair of matrix equations of the form \begin{eqnarray*} X^r=Q_1 + \displaystyle \sum_{i=1}^{m} {A_i}^*F(X)A_i \mbox{ and } X^s=Q_2 +…

In this paper, we begin the study of the Fermat equation $x^n+y^n=z^n$ over real biquadratic fields. In particular, we prove that there are no non-trivial solutions to the Fermat equation over $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{2},\sqrt{3})$ for $n\geq 4$.
In this paper, we study the integer solutions of a family of Fermat-type equations of signature $(2, 2n, n)$, $Cx^2 + q^ky^{2n} = z^n$. We provide an algorithmically testable set of conditions which, if satisfied, imply the existence of a…
Let $A$ be a random $m\times n$ matrix over the finite field $F_q$ with precisely $k$ non-zero entries per row and let $y\in F_q^m$ be a random vector chosen independently of $A$. We identify the threshold $m/n$ up to which the linear…
We show a generalization of Mason's ABC-theorem, with the only conditions that the greatest common divisor has been divided out and no proper subsum of the (possibly multivariate) polynomial sum f_1 + f_2 + ... + f_n = 0 vanishes. As a…
We provide several extensions of the modular method which were motivated by the problem of completing previous work to prove that, for any integer $n \geq 2$, the equation \[ x^{13} + y^{13} = 3 z^n \] has no non-trivial solutions. In…
