We count certain abelian surfaces with potential quaternionic multiplication defined over a number field $K$ by counting points of bounded height on some genus zero Shimura curves.

We give formulas for the number of representations of non negative integers by various quadratic forms. We also give evaluations in the case of sum of two cubes (cubic case) and the quintic case, as well. We introduce a class of generalized…

We show that for all real biquadratic fields not containing $\sqrt{2}$, $\sqrt{3}$, $\sqrt{5}$, $\sqrt{6}$, $\sqrt{7},$ and $\sqrt{13}$, the Pythagoras number of the ring of algebraic integers is at least $6$. We will also provide an upper…

In this paper we prove an explicit version of a function field analogue of a classical result of Odoni about norms in number fields in the case of a cyclic Galois extensions. In the particular case of a quadratic extension, we recover the…

We define the Euler number of a bipartite graph on $n$ vertices to be the number of labelings of the vertices with $1,2,...,n$ such that the vertices alternate in being local maxima and local minima. We reformulate the problem of computing…

Let n be an odd number and F an imaginary quadratic field with odd discriminant. We show that there exists infinitely many cubic fields K such that the class number of K is divisible by n and the Galois closure of K contains F.

We give a heuristic argument supporting conjectures of Bhargava on the asymptotics of the number of $S_n$-number fields having bounded discriminant. We then make our arguments rigorous in the case $n=3$ giving a new elementary proof of the…

We prove that the number of limit cycles generated by a small non-conservative perturbation of a Hamiltonian polynomial vector field on the plane, is bounded by a double exponential of the degree of the fields. This solves the long-standing…

We study the complexity of multiplication of two elements in a finite field extension given by their coordinates in a normal basis. We show how to control this complexity using the arithmetic and geometry of algebraic curves.

We prove an asymptotic formula for class numbers of totlally imaginary quartic number fields, ie for number fields of degree 4 over Q with only complex embeddings. After previous work for real quadratic fields (Sarnak) and complex cubic…

Let $Q$ be a nondegenerate quadratic form on a vector space $V$ of even dimension $n$ over a number field $F$. Via the circle method or automorphic methods one can give good estimates for smoothed sums over the number of zeros of the…
