Suppose $ m,n\geq 2 $ are co prime integers. We prove certain new symmetries of the base $ n $ representation of $ 1/m $, and in particular characterize the subgroup generated by $ n $ inside $ (\mathbb{Z}/m\mathbb{Z})^\times $. As an…

This paper is continuation of the paper "Primitive roots in quadratic field". We consider an analogue of Artin's primitive root conjecture for algebraic numbers which is not a unit in real quadratic fields. Given such an algebraic number,…

This article is about Artin's braid group and its role in knot theory. We set ourselves two goals: (i) to provide enough of the essential background so that our review would be accessible to graduate students, and (ii) to focus on those…

In 1976 Procesi and Schacher developed an Artin-Schreier type theory for central simple algebras with involution and conjectured that in such an algebra a totally positive element is always a sum of hermitian squares. In this paper…

We present upper bounds on certain sums which are related to Artin's primitive root conjecture and are also used in counting ray class characters.

In 1968, M. Artin proved that any formal power series solution of a system of analytic equations may be approximated by convergent power series solutions. Motivated by this result and a similar result of P{\l}oski, he conjectured that this…

Auslander-Reiten conjecture, which says that an Artin algebra does not have any non-projective generator with vanishing self-extensions in all positive degrees, is shown to be invariant under certain singular equivalences induced by adjoint…

We depart from our approximation of 2000 of all root radii of a polynomial, which has readily extended Sch{\"o}nhage's efficient algorithm of 1982 for a single root radius. We revisit this extension, advance it, based on our simple but…

These brief notes record our puzzles and findings surrounding Givental's recent conjecture which expresses higher genus Gromov-Witten invariants in terms of the genus-0 data. We limit our considerations to the case of a projective line,…

We examine the sums $S(k,\,n)$ of the $k-$th powers of the $\phi(n)$ integers $\alpha_1<\alpha_2<\cdots<\alpha_{\phi(n)}$ less than and prime to $n$ (Euler set) and prove a formula (new) for $S(3,\,n)$. If $n$ equals a prime $p$, we prove a…

These are my notes for a talk at the The Tate Conjecture workshop at the American Institute of Mathematics in Palo Alto, CA, July 23--July 27, 2007, somewhat revised and expanded. The intent of the talk was to review what is known and to…

The first purpose of our paper is to show how Hooley's celebrated method leading to his conditional proof of the Artin conjecture on primitive roots can be combined with the Hardy-Littlewood circle method. We do so by studying the number of…

We report on various results, conjectures, and open problems related to Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials of matroids. We focus on conjectures about the roots of these polynomials, all of which appear here for the first time.

We survey Kondrat'ev--Landis' conjecture, providing an up-to-date account of the main advances and describing the techniques developed. We complement the overview with references and formulations of the problem in further closely connected…

This is an extended abstract of the talk given at the Oberwolfach Workshop "Algebraic Structures in Low-Dimensional Topology", 25 May -- 31 May 2014. My goal was to describe progress in distributive homology from the previous Oberwolfach…

This is an extended abstract of my talk at the Oberwolfach Workshop ''Cluster Algebras and Related Topics'' (December 8 - 14, 2013). It is based on a joint work with A. Zelevinsky (arXiv:1306.3495).

The study of arboreal Galois representations (that is, Galois groups arising from iteration of polynomial and rational functions) originated with work of Odoni in the 1980s. Beginning in the early 2000s it underwent a period of renewed…

Commentary on Emil Artin's "Uber eine neue Art von L-Reihen" (1924), including a modernized and expanded translation.

We give a conceptual explanation for the somewhat mysterious origin of Suslin matrices. This enables us to generalize the construction of Suslin matrices and to give more conceptual proofs of some well-known results.

We formulate an equivariant version of Greenberg's $p$-adic Artin conjecture for smoothed equivariant $p$-adic Artin $L$-functions in the context of an arbitrary one-dimensional admissible $p$-adic Lie extension of a totally real number…
