We study function fields of curves over a base field $K$ which is either a global field or a large field having a separable field extension of degree divisible by $4$. We show that, for any such function field, Hilbert's 10th Problem has a…

Hilbert's 10th problem, stated in modern terms, is: Find an algorithm that will, given $p \in \mathbb{Z}[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ determine if there exists $a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_n \in \mathbb{Z}$ such that $p(a_1,\ldots,a_n)=0$. Davis, Putnam,…

Inspired by Quantum Mechanics, we reformulate Hilbert's tenth problem in the domain of integer arithmetics into either a problem involving a set of infinitely coupled differential equations or a problem involving a Shr\"odinger propagator…

Inspired by Quantum Mechanics, we reformulate Hilbert's tenth problem in the domain of integer arithmetics into problems involving either a set of infinitely-coupled non-linear differential equations or a class of linear Schr\"odinger…

Let k be a field of characteristic zero, V a smooth, positive-dimensional, quasiprojective variety over k, and D a nonempty effective divisor on V. Let K be the function field of V, and A the semilocal ring of D in K. In this paper, we…

Let $k({\bf x})=k(x_1,\ldots ,x_n)$ be the rational function field, and $k\subsetneqq L\subsetneqq k({\bf x})$ an intermediate field. Then, Hilbert's fourteenth problem asks whether the $k$-algebra $A:=L\cap k[x_1,\ldots ,x_n]$ is finitely…

We prove that the pattern matching problem is undecidable in polymorphic lambda-calculi (as Girard's system F) and calculi supporting inductive types (as G{\"o}del's system T) by reducing Hilbert's tenth problem to it. More generally…

Let f(t,X) be an irreducible polynomial over the field of rational functions k(t), where k is a number field. Let O be the ring of integers of k. Hilbert's irreducibility theorem gives infinitely many integral specializations of t to values…

The main goal of this work is to answer a question of P. D`ebes and D. Haran by relaxing the condition for Hilbertianity. Namely we prove that for a field K to be Hilbertian it suffices that K has the irreducible specialization property…

One of the main open problems in the context of extensions of Hilbert's tenth problem (HTP) is the case of the ring of complex entire functions in one variable. Our main result provides a step towards an answer: For every $\rho\ge 0$, we…

Let F be a finite field of characteristic 2 and h be the element x^3+y^3+xyz of F[[x,y,z]]. In an earlier paper we made a precise conjecture as to the values of the colengths of the ideals (x^q,y^q,z^q,h^j) for q a power of 2. We also…

One of the main open problems regarding decidability of the existential theory of rings is the analogue of Hilbert's Tenth Problem (HTP) for the ring of entire holomorphic functions in one variable. In the direction of a negative solution,…

It is known that Hilbert's Tenth Problem over the Gaussian ring $\mathbb Z[i]=\{a+bi:\ a,b\in\mathbb Z\}$ is undecidable. In this paper we obtain the following further result: There is no algorithm to decide whether an arbitrarily given…

In this paper we first review the history of Hilbert's Tenth Problem, and then study mixed quantifier prefixes over Diophantine equations with integer variables. For example, we prove that $\forall^2\exists^4$ over $\mathbb Z$ is…
