The matrix representation of the set $\Delta({\bf d}^3)$, ${\bf d}^3=(d_1,d_2, d_3)$, of the integers which are unrepresentable by $d_1,d_2,d_3$ is found. The diagrammatic procedure of calculation of the generating function $\Phi({\bf…

We prove that if $E \subset {\mathbb F}_q^2$, $q \equiv 3 \mod 4$, has size greater than $Cq^{7/4}$, then $E$ determines a positive proportion of all congruence classes of triangles in ${\mathbb F}_q^2$. The approach in this paper is based…

By the theory of elliptic curves, we study the integers representable as the product of the sum of four integers with the sum of their reciprocals and give a sufficient condition for the integers with a positive representation.

For many finite groups, the Inverse Galois Problem can be approached through modular/automorphic Galois representations. This is a report explaining the basic strategy, ideas and methods behind some recent results. It focusses mostly on the…

Given a finite transitive permutation group $G$, we investigate number fields $F/\mathbb{Q}$ of Galois group $G$ whose discriminant is only divisible by small prime powers. This generalizes previous investigations of number fields with…

There are several variants of the inverse Galois problem which involve restrictions on ramification. In this paper we give sufficient conditions that a given finite group $G$ occurs infinitely often as a Galois group over the rationals…

Let $E$ be a primarily quasilocal field, $M/E$ a finite Galois extension and $D$ a central division $E$-algebra of index divisible by $[M\colon E]$. In addition to the main result of Part I, this part of the paper shows that if the Galois…

Let $f(x)=x^{12}+ax^{6}+b\in {\mathbb Z}[x]$, with $ab\ne 0$. We say that $f(x)$ is {\em monogenic} if $f(x)$ is irreducible over ${\mathbb Q}$ and $\{1,\theta,\theta^2,\ldots,\theta^{11}\}$ is a basis for the ring of integers of ${\mathbb…

We consider four classes of polynomials over the fields $\mathbb{F}_{q^3}$, $q=p^h$, $p>3$, $f_1(x)=x^{q^2+q-1}+Ax^{q^2-q+1}+Bx$, $f_2(x)=x^{q^2+q-1}+Ax^{q^3-q^2+q}+Bx$, $f_3(x)=x^{q^2+q-1}+Ax^{q^2}-Bx$, $f_4(x)=x^{q^2+q-1}+Ax^{q}-Bx$,…

Let E be an elliptic curve over Q, and let n=>1. The central object of study of this article is the division field Q(E[n]) that results by adjoining to Q the coordinates of all n-torsion points on E(Q). In particular, we classify all curves…

Counting number fields with prescribed Galois group is an enduring challenge in arithmetic statistics. Using the determinant method, we provide an upper bound for even groups, which is new in some cases.

The first aim of this note is to fill a gap in the literature by proving that, given a global field $K$ and a finite set $\mathcal{S}$ of primes of $K$, every finite split embedding problem $G \rightarrow {\rm{Gal}}(L/K)$ over $K$ with…

A subgroup $H$ of a group $G$ is said to be {pronormal} in $G$ if $H$ and $H^g$ are conjugate in $\langle H, H^g \rangle$ for every $g \in G$. Some problems in finite group theory, combinatorics, and permutation group theory were solved in…

For a field $K$, and a root $\alpha$ of an irreducible polynomial over $K$ (in some algebraic closure) the number of roots of $f(x)$ lying in $K(\alpha)$ is studied here. Given such an $f(x)$ of degree $n$ for which $r$ of the roots are i n…

We give a complete answer to the analogue of Grothendieck conjecture on p-curvatures for q-difference equations defined over K(x), where K is any finitely generated extension of Q and q\in K can be either a transcendental or an algebraic…

Let $q=4$ and $k$ a positive integer. In this short note, we present a class of permutation polynomials over $\Bbb F_{q^{3k}}$. We also present a generalization.

A number field K is a finite extension of rational number field Q. A circulant digraph integral over K means that all its eigenvalues are algebraic integers of K. In this paper we give the sufficient and necessary condition for circulant…

For any positive integer $n$ along with parameters $\alpha$ and $\nu$, we define and investigate $\alpha$-shifted, $\nu$-offset, floor sequences of length $n$. We find exact and asymptotic formulas for the number of integers in such a…

For coprime positive integers $q$ and $e$, let $m(q,e)$ denote the least positive integer $t$ such that there exists a sum of $t$ powers of $q$ which is divisible by $e$. We prove an upper bound for $m(q.e)$ and investigate the case where…

In this paper we prove that for each integer of the form $n=4\varpi$ (where $\varpi$ is a prime between $17$ and $73$) at least one of the following groups: $P\Omega^+_n(\mathbb{F}_{\ell^s})$, $PSO^+_n(\mathbb{F}_{\ell^s})$,…
