We give upper and lower bounds on the number of points on abelian varieties over finite fields, and lower bounds specific to Jacobian varieties. We also determine exact formulas for the maximum and minimum number of points on Jacobian…
In this paper, we study some extended hypergeometric functions from matrix point of view. We have given the integral representations of these matrix functions. Finally, we obtain some generating function relations using fractional…
We study and partially classify cubic rational expressions $g(x)/h(x)$ over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, up to pre- and post-composition with independent M\"obius transformations. In particular, we obtain a full classification when $q$ is…
I provide a systematic construction of points, defined over finite radical extensions, on any Legendre curve over any field of characteristic not equal two. This includes as special case Douglas Ulmer's construction of rational points over…
We establish common fixed point theorems for two pairs of weakly compatible self-mappings using an auxiliary function of two variables. Unlike classical results, our theorems do not assume continuity of the mappings and require completeness…
For any affine hypersurface defined by a complete symmetric polynomial in $k\geq 3$ variables of degree $m$ over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ of $q$ elements, a special case of our theorem says that this hypersurface has at least…
We give examples of sequences of smooth non-isotrivial curves for every genus at least two, defined over a rational function field of positive characteristic, such that the (finite) number of rational points of the curves in the sequence…
In this paper we study a family of curves obtained by fibre products of hyperelliptic curves. We then exploit this family to construct examples of curves of given genus g over a finite field Fq with many rational points. The results…
One of the main themes in this thesis is the description of the signature of both the infinite place and the finite places in cubic function fields of any characteristic and quartic function fields of characteristic at least 5. For these…
We will prove several expanders with exponent strictly greater than $2$. For any finite set $A \subset \mathbb R$, we prove the following six-variable expander results: \begin{align*} |(A-A)(A-A)(A-A)| &\gg…
We give an upper bound for the norm of the determinant of additively indecomposable, totally positive definite quadratic forms defined over the ring of integers of totally real number fields. We apply these results to find lower and upper…
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 construct compact descriptions of function fields and number fields.
In this sequence of work we investigate polynomial equations of additive functions. We consider the solutions of equation \[ \sum_{i=1}^{n}f_{i}(x^{p_{i}})g_{i}(x)^{q_{i}}= 0 \qquad \left(x\in \mathbb{F}\right), \] where $n$ is a positive…
In 2021, Marco Besier and the first author introduced the concept of rationalizability of square roots to simplify arguments of Feynman integrals. In this work, we generalize the definition of rationalizability to field extensions. We then…
For a rational function of several variables with nonnegative imaginary part on the upper poly-half-plane, the matrix representations are obtained.
It is a well known result that the number of points over a finite field on the Legendre family of elliptic curves can be written in terms of a hypergeometric function modulo $p$. In this paper, we extend this result, due to Igusa, to a…
Given a totally real number field $F$, we show that there are only finitely many totally real extensions of $K$ of a fixed degree that admit a universal quadratic form defined over $F$. We further obtain several explicit classification…
We consider a number of combinatorial problems in which rational generating functions may be obtained, whose denominators have factors with certain singularities. Specifically, there exist points near which one of the factors is asymptotic…
