Let $p$ be a sufficiently large prime number, $r$ be any given positive integer. Suppose that $a_1,\,\dots,\,a_r$ are pairwise distinct and not zero modulo $p$. Let $N(a_1,\,\dots,\,a_r;\,p)$ denote the number of…

The Elementary Type Conjecture in Galois theory provides a concrete inductive description of the finitely generated maximal pro-$p$ Galois groups $G_F(p)$ of fields $F$ containing a root of unity of order $p$. We describe several variants…

We investigate, using the weighted linear sieve, the distribution of almost-primes among the residue classes (mod p) that generate the multiplicative group of reduced residue classes. We are concerned with finding an upper bound for the…

Using techniques of algebraic and analytic number theory, we resolve a question on monoid rings posed by Kulosman, et. al., under the assumption of the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH). Specifically, we show that under an appropriate…

We show that the Schur polynomials in all primitive $n$th roots of unity are $1$, $0$, or $-1$, if $n$ has at most two distinct odd prime factors. This result can be regarded as a generalization of properties of the coefficients of the…

For unitary groups associated to a ramified quadratic extension of a $p$-adic field, we define various regular formal moduli spaces of $p$-divisible groups with parahoric levels, characterize exceptional special divisors on them, and…

In this short note we confirm the relation between the generalized $abc$-conjecture and the $p$-rationality of number fields. Namely, we prove that given K$/\mathbb{Q}$ a real quadratic extension or an imaginary $S_3$-extension, if the…

Let $p$ be a prime and let $g(p)$ be the least primitive root modulo $p$. We prove that for any $\epsilon>0$ and $p$ large enough the bound \begin{align} g(p)\ll p^{\frac{1}{4\sqrt{e}}+\epsilon} \nonumber \end{align} holds for most prime…

We develop the ratios conjecture with one shift in the numerator and denominator in certain ranges for families of primitive quadratic Hecke $L$-functions of imaginary quadratic number fields with class number one using multiple Dirichlet…

In this paper, we mainly give a general explicit form of Cassels' $p$-adic embedding theorem for number fields. We also give its refined form in the case of cyclotomic fields. As a byproduct, given an irreducible polynomial $f$ over $Z$, we…

We verify a conjecture of Emil Artin, for the case of a Cubic and Quadratic form over any $p$-adic field, provided the cardinality of the residue class field exceeds 293. That is any Cubic and Quadratic form with at least 14 variables has a…

Given an odd prime number $p$ and a $p$-stabilized Artin representation $\rho$ over $\mathbb{Q}$, we introduce a family of $p$-adic Stark regulators and we formulate an Iwasawa-Greenberg main conjecture and a $p$-adic Stark conjecture which…

Let $p$ be a prime number. If a number field $k$ has at least one complex place, there are infinitely many $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extensions over $k$, and some authors studied the behavior of Iwasawa invariants of these $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extensions.…

We study the difference between the number of primitive roots modulo $p$ and modulo $p+k$ for prime pairs $p,p+k$. Assuming the Bateman-Horn conjecture, we prove the existence of strong sign biases for such pairs. More importantly, we prove…

We examine linear sums of primitive roots and their inverses in finite fields. In particular, we refine a result by Li and Han, and show that every $p> 13$ has a pair of primitive roots $a$ and $b$ such that $a+ b$ and $a^{-1} + b^{-1}$ are…

Let a,f and g be integers, with a and f coprime. Under the generalized Riemann hypothesis it follows from work of Hooley and Lenstra that the set of primes p such that p=a(mod f) and g is primitive root mod p has a natural density. In this…

Let $K$ be a real quadratic field and let $p$ be a prime number which is inert in $K$. Let $K_p$ be the completion of $K$ at $p$. In a previous paper, we constructed a $p$-adic invariant $u_C\in K_p$, and we proved a $p$-adic Kronecker…

It follows from the work of Artin and Hooley that, under assumption of the generalized Riemann hypothesis, the density of the set of primes $q$ for which a given non-zero rational number $r$ is a primitive root modulo $q$ can be written as…

Erd\H{o}s proved that $\mathcal{F}(A) := \sum_{a \in A}\frac{1}{a\log a}$ converges for any primitive set of integers $A$ and later conjectured this sum is maximized when $A$ is the set of primes. Banks and Martin further conjectured that…

We establish asymptotic upper bounds on the number of zeros modulo $p$ of certain polynomials with integer coefficients, with $p$ prime numbers arbitrarily large. The polynomials we consider have degree of size $p$ and are obtained by…
