In this article we continue the investigation of the length of the narrow $2$-class field tower of real quadratic number fields $\mathrm{k}$ whose discriminants are not a sum of two squares and for which their $2$-class groups are…
An Artin-Schreier tower over the finite field F_p is a tower of field extensions generated by polynomials of the form X^p - X - a. Following Cantor and Couveignes, we give algorithms with quasi-linear time complexity for arithmetic…
Bazzi and Mitter [3] showed that binary dihedral group codes are asymptotically good. In this paper we prove that the dihedral group codes over any finite field with good mathematical properties are asymptotically good. If the…
While topological phases have been extensively studied in amorphous systems in recent years, it remains unclear whether the random nature of amorphous materials can give rise to higher-order topological phases that have no crystalline…
An elliptic curve $E$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ is said to be good if $N_{E}^{6}<\max\!\left\{ \left\vert c_{4}^{3}\right\vert ,c_{6}^{2}\right\} $ where $N_{E}$ is the conductor of $E$ and $c_{4}$ and $c_{6}$ are the invariants associated to a…
The estimate for the maximal number of ordinary double points of a projective surface of degree eight is improved to $168\leq\mu(8)\leq 174$ by constructing a projective surface of degree eight with 168 nodes.
We prove quantitative upper bounds for the number of quadratic twists of a given elliptic curve $E/\Fp_q(C)$ over a function field over a finite field that have rank $\geq 2$, and for their average rank. The main tools are constructions and…
For an elliptic curve $E/\Q$, we determine the maximum number of twists $E^d/\Q$ it can have such that $E^d(\Q)_{tors}\supsetneq E(\Q)[2]$. We use these results to determine the number of distinct quadratic fields $K$ such that…
The $p$-group generation algorithm is used to verify that the Hilbert $3$-class field tower has length $3$ for certain imaginary quadratic fields $K$ with $3$-class group $\mathrm{Cl}_3(K) \cong [3,3]$. Our results provide the first…
We construct rank 2 thick nondiscrete affine buildings associated with an arbitrary finite dihedral group.
Let $E:y^2=x^3+ax+b$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$. We compute certain twists of the classical modular curves $X(8)$. Searching for rational points on these twists enables us to find non-trivial pairs of $8$-congruent…
Let $k$ be a field of characteristic $0$, and let $\alpha_{1}$, $\alpha_{2}$, and $\alpha_{3}$ be algebraically independent and transcendental over $k$. Let $K$ be the transcendental extension of $k$ obtained by adjoining the elementary…
We show that extended graph 4-manifolds with positive Euler characteristic cannot support a complex structure. This result stems from a new proof of the fact that a closed real-hyperbolic 4-manifold cannot support a complex structure.…
We describe a bound on the degree of the generators for some adjoint rings on surfaces and threefolds.
We estimate, in a number field, the number of elements and the maximal number of linearly independent elements, with prescribed bounds on their valuations. As a by-product, we obtain new bounds for the successive minima of ideal lattices.…
In this article we study the behavior of Newton polygons along $\mathbb{Z}_p$-towers of curves. Fix an ordinary curve $X$ over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of characteristic $p$. By a $\mathbb{Z}_p$-tower $X_\infty/X$ we mean a tower of…
Proof of existence of a complex structure on the six-sphere, followed by an explicit computation of its underlying integrable almost complex tensor by the aid of inner automorphisms of the octonions, is exhibited. Both are elementary and…
We consider the semilinear Lane-Emden problem in a smooth bounded domain of the plane. The aim of the paper is to analyze the asymptotic behavior of sign changing solutions as the exponent p of the nonlinearity goes to infinity. Among other…
We show that there are hyperbolic tunnel-number one knots with arbitrarily high bridge number and that "most" tunnel-number one knots are not one-bridge with respect to an unknotted torus. The proof relies on a connection between bridge…
