In this paper, we prove: Let A be a nonnegative primitive tensor with order m and dimension n. Then its primitive degree R(A)\leq (n-1)^2+1, and the upper bound is sharp. This confirms a conjecture of Shao [7].

Schinzel and W\'ojcik have shown that if $\alpha, \beta$ are rational numbers not $0$ or $\pm 1$, then $\mathrm{ord}_p(\alpha)=\mathrm{ord}_p(\beta)$ for infinitely many primes $p$, where $\mathrm{ord}_p(\cdot)$ denotes the order in…

Let K be any field and G be a finite group. Noether's problem asks whether the fixed field is rational (=purely transcendental) over K. We will prove that if G is a non-abelian p-group of order p^n containing a cyclic subgroup of index p…

Let $p$ be a prime number. Let $C_p$, the cyclic group of order $p$, permute transitively a set of indeterminates $\{ x_1,\ldots ,x_p \}$. We prove that the invariant field $\mathbb{Q}(x_1,\ldots ,x_p)^{C_p}$ is rational over $\mathbb{Q}$…

Let $p$ be an odd prime, and define $$G_p(x)=\prod_{k=1}^{(p-1)/2}\left(x-e^{2\pi i k^2/p}\right).$$ In this paper we study values of $G_p(x)$ at roots of unity via Galois theory, and confirm some previous conjectures. For example, for any…

Given a number field, it is an important question in algorithmic number theory to determine all its subfields. If the search is restricted to abelian subfields, one can try to determine them by using class field theory. For this, it is…

Since Hooley's seminal 1967 resolution of Artin's primitive root conjecture under the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, numerous variations of the conjecture have been considered. We present a framework generalizing and unifying many…

Let F(z) be a rational function in Q(z) of degree at least 2 with F(0) = 0 and such that F does not vanish to order d at 0. Let b be a rational number having infinite orbit under iteration of F, and write F^n(b) = A_n/B_n as a fraction in…

The Iwasawa main conjecture fields has been an important tool to study the arithmetic of special values of $L$-functions of Hecke characters of imaginary quadratic fields. To obtain the finest possible invariants it is important to know the…

Let L be a quadratic imaginary field, inert at the rational prime p. Fix an integer n at least 3, and let M be the moduli space (in characteristic p) of principally polarized abelian varieties of dimension n equipped with an action by O_L…

For $q=3^r$ ($r>0$), denote by $\mathbb{F}_q$ the finite field of order $q$ and for a positive integer $m\geq2$, let $\mathbb{F}_{q^m}$ be its extension field of degree $m$. We establish a sufficient condition for existence of a primitive…

We prove Rubin's conjecture on the structure of local units in the anticyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension of unramified quadratic extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ in $p=3$ case by extending Burungale-Kobayashi-Ota's work.

We obtain an asymptotic upper bound for the product of the $p$-parts of the orders of certain composition factors of a finite group acting completely reducibly and faithfully on a finite vector space of order divisible by a prime $p$. An…

A hyperplane arrangement is said to satisfy the ``Riemann hypothesis'' if all roots of its characteristic polynomial have the same real part. This property was conjectured by Postnikov and Stanley for certain families of arrangements which…

Let $p$ be a prime number and $\zeta_p$ be a primitive $p$-th root of unity in $\bm{C}$. Let $k$ be a field and $k(x_0,\ldots,x_{p-1})$ be the rational function field of $p$ variables over $k$. Suppose that $G=\langle\sigma\rangle \simeq…

In this article, we study the Euler's factorial series $F_p(t)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty n!t^n$ in $p$-adic domain under the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis. First, we show that if we consider primes in $k\varphi(m)/(k+1)$ residue classes in the…

The multiplicative group of a finite field is well known to be cyclic; in this note, we determine the finite fields whose multiplicative groups are direct sum indecomposable. We obtain our classification using a direct argument and also as…
