In this note, using entirely algebraic or elementary methods, we determine a new asymptotic lower bound for the number of odd values of one of the most important modular functions in number theory, the Klein $j$-function. Namely, we show…
We describe and give computational results of a procedure to compute the divisor class number and regulator of most purely cubic function fields of unit rank 2. Our implementation is an improvement to Pollard's Kangaroo method in…
Approximate Counting refers to the problem where we are given query access to a function $f : [N] \to \{0,1\}$, and we wish to estimate $K = #\{x : f(x) = 1\}$ to within a factor of $1+\epsilon$ (with high probability), while minimizing the…
We develop a heuristic for the density of integer points on affine cubic surfaces. Our heuristic applies to smooth surfaces defined by cubic polynomials that are log K3, but it can also be adjusted to handle singular cubic surfaces. We…
This paper introduces an efficient algorithm for computing the general oscillatory matrix functions. These computations are crucial for solving second-order semi-linear initial value problems. The method is exploited using the scaling and…
We improve the unconditional explicit bounds for the error term in the prime counting function $\psi(x)$. In particular, we prove that, for all $x>2$, we have \[ \left| \psi(x)-x \right| < 9.22106 \, x \, (\log x)^{3/2}…
We describe a provably quasi-polynomial algorithm to compute discrete logarithms in the multiplicative groups of finite fields of small characteristic, that is finite fields whose characteristic is logarithmic in the order. We partially…
In this work, we use the notion of ``symmetry'' of functions for an extension $K/L$ of finite fields to produce extensions of a function field $F/K$ in which almost all places of degree one split completely. Then we introduce the notion of…
Using a quadratic version of the Bott residue theorem, we give a quadratic refinement of the count of twisted cubic curves on hypersurfaces and complete intersections in a projective space.
Let $\mathcal{O}$ be the ring of integers for some number field $F$. Let $\chi(x)\in \mathcal{O}[x]$ be a regular monic polynomial of degree $n$. We study the asymptotic count of integral $n\times n$ matrices over $\mathcal{O}$ with the…
Let F be a local non-archimedean field. We prove a formula relating orbital integrals in GL(n,F) (for the unit Hecke function) and the generating series counting ideals of a certain ring. Using this formula, we give an explicit estimate for…
Assuming some regularity of the dynamical zeta function, we establish an explicit formula with an error term for the prime orbit counting function of a suspended flow. We define the subclass of self-similar flows, for which we give an…
To any quartic $D_4$ extension of $\mathbb{Q}$, one can associate the Artin conductor of a 2-dimensional irreducible representation of the group. Alt\u{u}g, Shankar, Varma, and Wilson determined the asymptotic number of such fields when…
Let $p$ and $q$ be anisotropic quadratic forms of dimension $\geq 2$ over a field $F$. In a recent article, we formulated a conjecture describing the general constraints which the dimensions of $p$ and $q$ impose on the isotropy index of…
We study some extensions of Grover's quantum searching algorithm. First, we generalize the Grover iteration in the light of a concept called amplitude amplification. Then, we show that the quadratic speedup obtained by the quantum searching…
We give a number of theoretical and practical methods related to the computation of L-functions, both in the local case (counting points on varieties over finite fields, involving in particular a detailed study of Gauss and Jacobi sums),…
An efficient method of computing power expansions of algebraic functions is the method of Kung and Traub and is based on exact arithmetic. This paper shows a numeric approach is both feasible and accurate while also introducing a…
We examine hypergeometric functions in the finite field, p-adic and classical settings. In each setting, we prove a formula which splits the hypergeometric function into a sum of lower order functions whose arguments differ by roots of…
Let us consider an algebraic function field defined over a finite Galois extension $K$ of a perfect field $k$. We give some conditions allowing the descent of the definition field of the algebraic function field from $K$ to $k$. We apply…
In this paper we give a new semiprimality test and we construct a new formula for $\pi ^{(2)}(N)$, the function that counts the number of semiprimes not exceeding a given number $N$. We also present new formulas to identify the $n^{th}$…
