Let $A$ be a non-zero abelian variety over a field $F$ that is not algebraic over a finite field. We prove that the rational rank of the abelian group $A(F)$ is infinite when $F$ is large in the sense of Pop (also called ample). The main…

For each odd prime power q, we construct an infinite sequence of rational functions f(X) in F_q(X), each of which is exceptional, which means that for infinitely many n the map c-->f(c) induces a bijection of P^1(F_{q^n}). Moreover, each of…

In this paper, we study the $F$-rationality of the Rees algebra and the extended Rees algebra of $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideals in excellent local rings $(R, \mathfrak{m})$ of prime characteristic. We partially answer some conjectures and…

The irrationality exponent of a real number measures how well that number can be approximated by rationals. Real numbers with irrationality exponent strictly greater than $2$ are transcendental numbers, and form a set with rich fractal…

Let $B$ be a fixed rational function of one complex variable of degree at least two. In this paper, we study solutions of the functional equation $A\circ X=X\circ B$ in rational functions $A$ and $X$. Our main result states that, unless $B$…

We prove that two-step nilpotent $p$-extensions of rational global function fields of characteristic $p$ satisfy a quantitative local-global principle when they are counted according to their largest upper ramification break ("last jump").…

We develop techniques that lay out a basis for generalizations of the famous Thurston's Topological Characterization of Rational Functions for an infinite set of marked points and branched coverings of infinite degree. Analogously to the…

We study finite $p$-subgroups of birational automorphism groups. By virtue of boundedness theorem of Fano varieties, we prove that there exists a constant $R(n)$ such that a rationally connected variety of dimension $n$ over an…

Suppose $(X, \Delta)$ is a log-$\bQ$-Gorenstein pair. Recent work of M. Blickle and the first two authors gives a uniform description of the multiplier ideal $\mJ(X;\Delta)$ (in characteristic zero) and the test ideal $\tau(X;\Delta)$ (in…

For any prime number p and any positive real number {\alpha}, we construct a finitely generated group {\Gamma} with p-gradient equal to {\alpha}. This construction is used to show that there exist uncountably many pairwise non-commensurable…

In the present paper we show that there exist infinitely many consecutive square-free numbers of the form $[\alpha n]$, $[\alpha n]+1$, where $\alpha>1$ is irrational number with bounded partial quotient or irrational algebraic number.

In this paper we make a series of numerical experiments to support Greenberg's $p$-rationality conjecture, we present a family of $p$-rational biquadratic fields and we find new examples of $p$-rational multiquadratic fields. In the case of…

In order to prove irrationality of \sqrt{2} by using only decimal expansions (and not fractions), we develop in detail a model of real numbers based on infinite decimals and arithmetic operations with them.

Let $F$ be a non-archimedean local field of residual characteristic $p>3$ and residue degree $f>1$. We study a certain type of diagram, called \emph{cyclic diagrams}, and use them to show that the universal supersingular modules of…

This paper concerns a study of three families of non-compact type symmetric spaces of infinite dimension. Although they have infinite dimension they have finite rank. More precisely, we show they have finite telescopic dimension. We also…

We prove that a real number a greater than or equal to 2 is the irrationality exponent of some computable real number if and only if a is the upper limit of a computable sequence of rational numbers. Thus, there are computable real numbers…

In this paper, we prove some sufficient conditions for Cohen-Macaulay normal Rees algebras to be $F$-rational. Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Gorenstein normal local domain of dimension $d\geq 2$ and of characteristic $p > 0$. Let $I$ be a…

Let $F(x)$ be an analytical, real valued function defined on a compact domain $\mathcal {B}\subset\mathbb{R}$. We prove that the problem of establishing the irrationality of $F(x)$ evaluated at $x_0\in \mathcal{B}$ can be stated with…

If $f:\mathbb{R}^2\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^2$ is an orientation reversing fixed point free homeomorphism on the plane $\mathbb{R}^2$ with no unbounded orbit, then $f$ has infinitely many periodic orbits.

It is proved that given any prime ideal $\mathfrak{p}$ of height at least 2 in a countable commutative noetherian ring $A$, there are uncountably many more dualizable objects in the $\mathfrak{p}$-local $\mathfrak{p}$-torsion stratum of the…
