In this paper we investigate the uniform distribution properties of polynomials in many variables and bounded degree over a fixed finite field F of prime order. Our main result is that a polynomial P : F^n -> F is poorly-distributed only if…

Let $G$ be a Lie group and $\Gamma$ be a lattice in $G$. We introduce the notion of locally unipotent invariant measures on $G/\Gamma$. We then prove that under some conditions, the limit measure supported on the image of polynomial…

In the present article, we define a notion of good height functions on quasi-projective varieties $V$ defined over number fields and prove an equidistribution theorem of small points for such height functions. Those good height functions…

In this work we reproduce the characterization of $\Gg^s$-sets from the euclidean setting [J. London Math. Soc. 49:267-280,1994] to more general metric spaces. These sets have Hausdorff dimension at least $s$ and are closed by countable…

Suppose $\mathbb{K}$ is a large enough field and $\mathcal{P} \subset \mathbb{K}^2$ is a fixed, generic set of points which is available for precomputation. We introduce a technique called \emph{reshaping} which allows us to design…

Let P -> M be a principal G-bundle. Using techniques from the loop representation of gauge theory, we construct well-defined substitutes for ``Lebesgue measure'' on the space A of connections on P and for ``Haar measure'' on the group Ga of…

We show that the counts of low degree irreducible factors of a random polynomial $f$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$ with independent but non-uniform coefficients behave like that of a uniform random polynomial, exhibiting a form of universality for…

We prove that in the limit of large dimension, the distribution of the logarithm of the characteristic polynomial of a generalized Wigner matrix converges to a log-correlated field. In particular, this shows that the limiting joint…

We study the Mahler measures of certain families of Laurent polynomials in two and three variables. Each of the known Mahler measure formulas for these families involves $L$-values of at most one newform and/or at most one quadratic…

The purpose of this paper is to generalize this relation of symmetry between the power sum polynomials and the generalized Euler polynomials to the relation between the power sum polynomials and the generalized higher-order Euler…

To study a Dirichlet polynomial $f(s)=\frac{a_{m}}{m^{s}}+\cdots +\frac{a_{n}}{n^{s}}$ by regarding it as a multivariate polynomial via the canonical map $\phi$ sending $p_i^{-s}$ to an indeterminate $X_i$, with $p_i$ the $i$th prime…

Let $M(\alpha)$ denote the Mahler measure of the algebraic number $\alpha$. In a recent paper, Dubickas and Smyth constructed a metric version of the Mahler measure on the multiplicative group of algebraic numbers. Later, Fili and the…

We discuss Mahler's work on Diophantine approximation and its applications to Diophantine equations, in particular Thue-Mahler equations, S-unit equations and S-integral points on elliptic curves, and go into later developments concerning…

We strengthen the classical approximation theorems of Weierstrass, Runge and Mergelyan by showing the polynomial and rational approximants can be taken to have a simple geometric structure. In particular, when approximating a function $f$…

Let f: A^N \to A^N be a regular polynomial automorphism defined over a number field K. For each place v of K, we construct the v-adic Green functions G_{f,v} and G_{f^{-1},v} (i.e., the v-adic canonical height functions) for f and f^{-1}.…

In this paper, the concept of algebroid mappings of complex manifolds is introduced based on that a large number of complex systems of PDEs admit multi-valued solutions that can be defined by a system of independent algebraic equations over…

Consider a quartic $q$-Weil polynomial $f$. Motivated by equidistribution considerations we define, for each prime $\ell$, a local factor which measures the relative frequency with which $f\bmod \ell$ occurs as the characteristic polynomial…

We compute the uniform probability that finitely many polynomials over a finite field are pairwise coprime and compare the result with the formula one gets using the natural density as probability measure. It will turn out that the formulas…

Let X be a separable Banach space which admits a separating polynomial; in particular X a separable Hilbert space. Let $f:X \rightarrow R$ be bounded, Lipschitz, and $C^1$ with uniformly continuous derivative. Then for each {\epsilon}>0,…

For a polynomial $f(x)\in \mathbb Z[x]$ we study an analogue of Jacobsthal function, defined by the formula \[ j_f(N)=\max_{m}\{\text{For some } x\in \mathbb N \text{ the inequality } (x+f(i),N)>1 \text{ holds for all }i\leq m\}. \] We…
