The Torsion Anomalous Conjecture (TAC) states that a subvariety V of an abelian variety A has only finitely many maximal torsion anomalous subvarieties. In this work we prove, with an effective method, some cases of the TAC when the ambient…

We show that there are uncountably many algebraic extensions of $\mathbb{Q}$ containing at most finitely many moduli of CM simple principally polarized abelian varieties of any fixed dimension $g\geqslant1$, generalizing a result of…

We prove that there exist infinitely many coprime numbers $a$, $b$, $c$ with $a+b=c$ and $c>\operatorname{rad}(abc)\exp(6.563\sqrt{\log c}/\log\log c)$. These are the most extremal examples currently known in the $abc$ conjecture, thereby…

Let f(1)=1, and let f(n+1)=2^{2^{f(n)}} for every positive integer n. We conjecture that if a system S \subseteq {x_i \cdot x_j=x_k: i,j,k \in {1,...,n}} \cup {x_i+1=x_k: i,k \in {1,...,n}} has only finitely many solutions in non-negative…

This article examines the nontrivial solutions of the congruence \[ (p-1)\cdots(p-r) \equiv -1 \pmod p. \] We discuss heuristics for the proportion of primes $p$ that have exactly $N$ solutions to this congruence. We supply numerical…

We study the Abel differential equation x0 = A(t)x3 + B(t)x2 +C(t)x. Specifically, we find bounds on the number of its rational solutions when A(t), B(t) and C(t) are polynomials with real or complex coefficients; and on the number of…

This note presents a unified theorem of the alternative that explicitly allows for any combination of equality, componentwise inequality, weak dominance, strict dominance, and nonnegativity relations. The theorem nests 60 special cases,…

In a recent talk of Robbert Fokkink, some conjectures related to the infinite Tribonacci word were stated by the speaker and the audience. In this note we show how to prove (or disprove) the claims easily in a "purely mechanical" fashion,…

Integer iteration rules such as n |-> {a n + b, c n +d} are studied as minimal examples of the general process of multicomputation. Despite the simplicity of such rules, their multiway graphs can be complex, exhibiting, for example,…

We investigate four properties related to an elliptic curve $E_t$ in Legendre form with parameter $t$: the curve $E_{t}$ has complex multiplication, $E_{-t}$ has complex multiplication, a point on $E_t$ with abscissa $2$ is of finite order,…

This article is devoted to the study of solutions of non-homogenous linear differential equations having entire coefficients. We get all non-trivial solutions of infinite order of equation $f^{(n)}+a_{n-1}(z)f^{(n-1)}+\ldots…

Inverse limits, unlike direct limits, can in general be void, [1]. The existence of fixed points for arbitrary mappings $T : X \longrightarrow X$ is conjectured to be equivalent with the fact that related direct limits of all finite…

We prove that if $B\subseteq A$ is an extension of finite dimensional algebras such that the projective dimension of $A/B$ as a $B$-bimodule is finite, if $A$ has finite finitistic dimension, then so does $B$. We exhibit examples…

We demonstrate a kind of linear superposition for a large number of nonlinear equations, both continuum and discrete. In particular, we show that whenever a nonlinear equation admits solutions in terms of Jacobi elliptic functions…

The torsion anomalous conjecture states that for any variety V in an abelian variety there are only finitely many maximal V-torsion anomalous varieties. We prove this conjecture for V of codimension 2 in a product E^N of any elliptic curve…

This addendum to math.LO/0412144 shows that the set of tautological quantum logical propositional formulas for a finite dimensional vector space C^n is different for every n, affirmatively answering a question posed therein.

The Torsion Anomalous Conjecture states that an irreducible variety $V$ embedded in a semi-abelian variety contains only finitely many maximal $V$-torsion anomalous varieties. In this paper we consider an irreducible variety embedded in a…

In this paper by exploiting critical point theory, the existence of two distinct nontrivial solutions for a nonlinear algebraic system with a parameter is established. Our goal is achieved by requiring an appropriate behavior of the…

In this short note we shall construct infinite many nontrivial entire solutions to Donaldson's equation. We shall also prove a Liouville type theorem for entire solutions of the Donaldson equation. We believe that one should be able to…

Ellenberg proved that the abc conjecture would follow if this conjecture were known for sums $a+b=c$ such that $D\mid abc$ for some integer~$D$. Mochizuki proved a theorem with an opposite restriction, that the full abc conjecture would…
