Let p be an odd prime. Let F_p^* be the no-null part of the finite field of p elements. Let K = Q(zeta) be the p-cyclotomic field and let O_K be the ring of integers of K. Let pi be the prime ideal of K lying over p. An integer B \in O_K is…

Let $A$ be a finite-dimensional algebra over a field $k$. We define $A$ to be $\mathbf{C}$-dichotomic if it has the dichotomy property of the representation type on complexes of projective $A$-modules. $\mathbf{C}$-dichotomy implies the…

Eggert's Conjecture says that if R is a finite-dimensional nilpotent commutative algebra over a perfect field F of characteristic p, and R^{(p)} is the image of the p-th power map on R, then dim_F R \geq p dim_F R^{(p)}. Whether this very…

We prove the filling area conjecture in the hyperelliptic case. In particular, we establish the conjecture for all genus 1 fillings of the circle, extending P. Pu's result in genus 0. We translate the problem into a question about closed…

The main result of the work ``The nilpotence conjecture in K-theory of toric varieties'' is extended to all coefficient fields of characteristic 0, thus covering the class of genuine toric varieties.

Two $q$-supercongruences of truncated basic hypergeometric series containing two free parameters are established by employing specific identities for basic hypergeometric series. The results partly extend two $q$-supercongruences that were…

The Brauer-Siegel theorem concerns the size of the product of the class number and the regulator of a number field $K$. We derive bounds for this product in case $K$ is a prime cyclotomic field, distinguishing between whether there is a…

Let $p\equiv 1\,(\mathrm{mod}\,3)$ be a prime and denote by $\zeta_3$ a primitive third root of unity. Recently, Lemmermeyer presented a conjecture about $3$-class groups of pure cubic fields $L=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt[3]{p})$ and of their normal…

An odd-dimensional version of the Goldberg conjecture was formulated and proved by Boyer and Galicki, using an orbifold analogue of Sekigawa's formulas, and an approximation argument of K-contact structures with quasi-regular ones. We…

The Cram\'er-Granville conjecture is an upper bound on prime gaps, $g_n = p_{n+1} - p_n < \cCramer \, \log^2 p_n$ for some constant $\cCramer \geq 1$. Using a formula of Selberg, we first prove the weaker summed version: $\sum_{n=1}^N g_n <…

Asymptotically massless towers of species are ubiquitous in the string landscape when infinite-distance limits are approached. Due to the remarkable properties of string dualities, they always comprise Kaluza-Klein states or higher-spin…

In this paper we use algebraic curves and other algebraic number theory methods to show the validity of a permutation polynomial conjecture regarding $f(X)=X^{q(p-1)+1} +\alpha X^{pq}+X^{q+p-1}$, on finite fields $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}, q=p^k$,…

We prove that the theory of differentially closed fields of characteristic zero in $m\geq 1$ commuting derivations DCF$_{0,m}$ satisfies the expected form of the dichotomy. Namely, any minimal type is either locally modular or nonorthogonal…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic $p$ and let $\mathbb{F}$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. We consider Alperin's weight conjecture (over $k$) from the point of view of (stable)…

Abhyankar proved that every field of finite transcendence degree over $\mathbb{Q}$ or over a finite field is a homomorphic image of a subring of the ring of polynomials $\mathbb{Z}[T_1, \dots, T_n]$ (for some $n$ depending on the field). We…

We extend the theory of equivariant orthogonal spectra from finite groups to profinite groups, and more generally from compact Lie groups to compact Hausdorff groups. The G-homotopy theory is "pieced together" from the G/U-homotopy theories…

This is the second of three papers motivated by the author's desire to understand and explain "algebraically" one aspect of Dmitriy Zhuk's proof of the CSP Dichotomy Theorem. In this paper we extend Zhuk's "bridge" construction to arbitrary…

This paper is concerned with the study of the fine Selmer group of an abelian variety over a $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension which is not necessarily cyclotomic. It has been conjectured that these fine Selmer groups are always torsion over…

We present a system of axioms motivated by a topological intuition: The set of subsets of any set is a topology on that set. On the one hand, this system is a common weakening of Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory ZF, the positive set theory GPK…

We give a new proof of vanishing result of Esnault for the cohomology of constructible sheaves in the tower of ``mock'' Frobenius covers of projective space. The key idea is to use (a global form of) the perversity of nearby cycles.
