Let $K$ be a quadratic field which is not an imaginary quadratic field of class number one. We describe an algorithm to compute the primes $p$ for which there exists an elliptic curve over $K$ admitting a $K$-rational $p$-isogeny. This…

Consider the moduli space, $\mathcal{M}_{d}$, of degree $d \geq 2$ polynomials over $\mathbb{C}$, with a marked critical point. Given $k \geq 0,\; p$ an odd prime, we show that the set $\Sigma_{k,1,p}$ of conjugacy classes of degree $p$…

A Lehmer number modulo a prime $p$ is an integer $a$ with $1 \leq a \leq p-1$ whose inverse $\bar{a}$ within the same range has opposite parity. Lehmer numbers that are also primitive roots have been discussed by Wang and Wang in an…

This paper considers Weyl modules for a simple, simply connected algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $k$ of positive characteristic $p\not=2$. The main result proves, if $p\geq 2h-2$ (where $h$ is the Coxeter number) and if…

The parity of Selmer ranks for elliptic curves defined over the rational numbers $\mathbb{Q}$ with good ordinary reduction at an odd prime $p$ has been studied by Shekhar. The proof of Shekhar relies on proving a parity result for the…

Let p be a prime and F(p) the maximal p-extension of a field F containing a primitive p-th root of unity. We give a new characterization of Demuskin groups among Galois groups Gal(F(p)/F) when p=2, and, assuming the Elementary Type…

We compute the rank of the group of central units in the integral group ring $\Z G$ of a finite strongly monomial group $G$. The formula obtained is in terms of the strong Shoda pairs of $G$. Next we construct a virtual basis of the group…

Let $F$ be a $p$-adic field, that is, a finite extension of $\mathbb Q_p$. Let $D$ be a finite-dimensional central division algebra over $F$ and let $SL_1(D)$ be the group of elements of reduced norm $1$ in $D$. Prasad and Raghunathan…

Let $p=2n+1$ be an odd prime, and let $\zeta_{p^2-1}$ be a primitive $(p^2-1)$-th root of unity in the algebraic closure $\overline{\mathbb{Q}_p}$ of $\mathbb{Q}_p$. We let $g\in\mathbb{Z}_p[\zeta_{p^2-1}]$ be a primitive root modulo…

The multivariate Tutte polynomial $\hat Z_M$ of a matroid $M$ is a generalization of the standard two-variable version, obtained by assigning a separate variable $v_e$ to each element $e$ of the ground set $E$. It encodes the full structure…

Let $K$ be a number field and $p$ a prime number $\geq 5$. Let us denote by $\mu_p$ the group of the $p$th roots of unity. We define $p$ to be $K$-regular if $p$ does not divide the class number of the field $K(\mu_p)$. Under the assumption…

Let $\pi : Z \to X$ be Galois cover of smooth projective curves with Galois group $W$ a Weyl group of a simple Lie group $G$. For a dominant weight $\lambda$, we consider the intermediate curve $Y_\lambda= Z/\Stab(\lambda)$. One can realise…

Let $m$ be an integer greater than three and $\ell$ be an odd prime. In this paper, we prove that at least one of the following groups: $\mbox{P}\Omega^\pm_{2m}(\mathbb{F}_{\ell^s})$, $\mbox{PSO}^\pm_{2m}(\mathbb{F}_{\ell^s})$,…

Let $p$ be an odd prime number and $\zeta_{p} := \exp(2\pi i/p)$. Then, it is well-known that the $A_{p-1}$-root lattice can be realized as the (Hermitian) trace form of the $p$-th cyclotomic extension $\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_{p})/\mathbb{Q}$…

For finitely generated subgroups $W_1, \ldots , W_t$ of $\mathbb{Q}^{\times}$, integers $k_1, \ldots , k_t$, a Galois extension $F$ of $\mathbb{Q}$ and a union of conjugacy classes $C \subset \text{Gal}(F/\mathbb{Q})$, we develop methods…
