We define three hard problems in the theory of elliptic divisibility sequences (EDS Association, EDS Residue and EDS Discrete Log), each of which is solvable in sub-exponential time if and only if the elliptic curve discrete logarithm…

The existence of entire solutions to quasilinear elliptic systems exhibiting both singular and convective reaction terms is discussed. An auxiliary problem, obtained by `freezing' the convection terms and `shifting' the singular ones, is…

New exceptional (i.e. non-repeating) prime number multiplets are given and formulated in terms of arithmetic progressions, along with laws governing them. Accompanying repeating prime number multiplets are pointed out. Prime number…

We show that a wide class of geometrically defined overdetermined semilinear partial differential equations may be explicitly prolonged to obtain closed systems. As a consequence, in the case of linear equations we extract sharp bounds on…

Separation logic and its variants can describe various properties on pointer programs. However, when it comes to properties on sequences, one may find it hard to formalize. To deal with properties on variable-length sequences and multilevel…

We give a large sieve type inequality for functions supported on primes. As application we prove a conjecture by Elliott, and give bounds for short character sums over primes. The proves uses a combination of the large sieve and the Selberg…

This paper is concerned with the problem of determining the number of division algebras which share the same collection of finite splitting fields. As a corollary we are able to determine when two central division algebras may be…

An equation containing a fractional power of an elliptic operator of second order is studied for Dirichlet boundary conditions. Finite difference approximations in space are employed. The proposed numerical algorithm is based on solving an…

We prove uniform H\"older estimates in a class of singularly perturbed competition-diffusion elliptic systems, with the particular feature that the interactions between the components occur three by three (ternary interactions). These…

We shall study the existence of almost split sequences in tri-exact categories, that is, extension-closed subcategories of triangulated categories. Our results unify and extend the existence theorems for almost split sequences in abelian…

In this article I will review some basic results on elliptic boundary value problems with applications to General Relativity.

We use an iteration procedure propped up by a a classical form of the maximum principle to show the existence of solutions to a nonlinear Poisson equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions. These methods can be applied to the case of…

Much work has been done attempting to understand the dynamic behaviour of the so-called "3x+1" function. It is known that finite sequences of iterations with a given length and a given number of odd terms have some combinatorial properties…

We give explicit numerical estimates for the generalized Chebyshev functions. Explicit results of this kind are useful for estimating of computational complexity of algorithms which generates special primes. Such primes are needed to…

The complexity of the elliptic curve method of factorization (ECM) is proven under the celebrated conjecture of existence of smooth numbers in short intervals. In this work we tackle a different version of ECM which is actually much more…

For a fixed prime p, we consider the (finite) set of supersingular elliptic curves over $\bar{\mathbb{F}}$. Hecke operators act on this set. We compute the asymptotic frequence with which a given supersingular elliptic curve visits another…

Fix m >= 1 and let E be an elliptic curve over Q with complex multiplication. We formulate conjectures on the density of primes p (congruent to one modulo m) for which the pth Fourier coefficient of E is an mth power modulo p; often these…

We describe the space of Eisenbud-Harris limit linear series on a chain of elliptic curves and compare it with the theory of divisors on tropical chains. Either model allows to compute some invariants of Brill-Noether theory using…

For a prime number p, we characterize the groups that may arise as torsion subgroups of an elliptic curve with complex multiplication defined over a number field of degree 2p. In particular, our work shows that a classification in the…

We propose a simple derivation of an upper bound for the perimeter of an ellipse. The procedure, which relies on the use of elliptic integrals, consists in introducing, via inequalities and convexity properties, specific integrals which can…
