In this short note we confirm the relation between the generalized $abc$-conjecture and the $p$-rationality of number fields. Namely, we prove that given K$/\mathbb{Q}$ a real quadratic extension or an imaginary $S_3$-extension, if the…

Let $G$ be an infinite-dimensional real classical group containing the complete unitary group (or complete orthogonal group) as a subgroup. Then $G$ generates a category of double cosets (train) and any unitary representation of $G$ can be…

Dual lattice is an important concept of Euclidean lattices. In this paper, we first give the right definition of the concept of the dual lattice of a $p$-adic lattice from the duality theory of locally compact abelian groups. The concrete…

Linear forms in logarithms have an important role in the theory of Diophantine equations. In this article, we prove explicit $p$-adic lower bounds for linear forms in $p$-adic logarithms of rational numbers using Pad\'e approximations of…

We give a new characterization of the set $\mathcal{C}$ of Carmichael numbers in the context of $p$-adic theory, independently of the classical results of Korselt and Carmichael. The characterization originates from a surprising link to the…

The local theory of complex dimensions describes the oscillations in the geometry (spectra and dynamics) of fractal strings. Such geometric oscillations can be seen most clearly in the explicit volume formula for the tubular neighborhoods…

In this paper, we study a relation between digits of $p$-adic numbers and Mahler's classification. We show that an irrational $p$-adic number whose digits are automatic, primitive morphic, or Sturmian is an $S$-, $T$-, or $U_1$-number in…

In this paper we investigate the following related problems: (A) the separation of $p$-adic roots of integer polynomials of a fixed degree and bounded height; and (B) counting integer polynomials of a fixed degree and bounded height with…

We consider summation of some finite and infinite functional p-adic series with factorials. In particular, we are interested in the infinite series which are convergent for all primes p, and have the same integer value for an integer…

Jarnik's identity plays a major role in classical simultaneous approximation to two real numbers. O. German [2] has shown a generalization to the weighted setting in which the identity has to be replaced by two inequalities. His methods…

A set of multivariate polynomials, over a field of zero or large characteristic, can be tested for algebraic independence by the well-known Jacobian criterion. For fields of other characteristic p>0, there is no analogous characterization…

The goal of this paper is to study a $p$-adic analog of the joint of the conjectures of Andr\'e--Oort and Andr\'e--Pink. More precisely, on a product of ordinary Siegel formal moduli schemes, we study the distribution of points whose…

We consider a family of $(2,2)$-rational functions given on the set of complex $p$-adic field $\mathbb{C}_p$. Each such function has a unique fixed point. We study $p$-adic dynamical systems generated by the $(2,2)$-rational functions. We…

We develop a theory of $p$-adic continued fractions for a quaternion algebra $B$ over $\mathbb Q$ ramified at a rational prime $p$. Many properties holding in the commutative case can be proven also in this setting. In particular, we focus…

Second-order superintegrable systems in dimensions two and three are essentially classified. With increasing dimension, however, the non-linear partial differential equations employed in current methods become unmanageable. Here we propose…

Wan proved the rationality of partial toric $L$-functions using $\ell$-adic techniques. In this paper, we present a $p$-adic proof in the spirit of Dwork. We demonstrate that partial $L$-functions can be expressed as an alternating product…

The notion of a $p$-adic superspace is introduced and used to give a transparent construction of the Frobenius map on $p$-adic cohomology of a smooth projective variety over $\zp$ (the ring of $p$-adic integers), as well as an alternative…

The classical theory of continued fractions has been widely studied for centuries for its important properties of good approximation, and more recently it has been generalized to $p$-adic numbers where it presents many differences with…

We define the $p$-adic trace of certain rank-one local systems on the multiplicative group over $p$-adic numbers, using Sekiguchi and Suwa's unification of Kummer and Artin-Schrier-Witt theories. Our main observation is that, for every…

The Geometrical Lemma is a classical result in the theory of (complex) smooth representations of $p$-adic reductive groups, which helps to analyze the parabolic restriction of a parabolically induced representation by providing a filtration…
