Let $p$ be a prime, and let $\mathrm{X}$ be a smooth $p$-adic formal scheme over $\mathrm{Spf} \mathcal{O}_K$ where $K/\mathbf{Q}_p$ is a finite extension. We show that reflexive sheaves on the stack $\mathrm{X}^{\mathrm{Syn}}$ are…
Given a zero-free region and an averaged zero-density estimate over all Dirichlet $L$-functions modulo $q\in\mathbb{N}$, we refine the error terms of the prime number theorem in all and almost all short arithmetic progressions. For example,…
Let $G_1,\dots, G_n\in \mathbb{F}_p[X_1,\dots,X_m]$ be $n$ polynomials in $m$ variables over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_p$ of $p$ elements. For any sufficiently large prime $p$ and non-trivial bounds for the Weyl sums associated to the…
Recently, Kedlaya proves certain formula describing explicitly the Frobenius structure on a hypergeometric equation. In this paper, we give a generalization of it. In our case, the Frobenius matrix is no longer described by p-adic gamma…
We establish discorrelation estimates between the Piatetski-Shapiro prime set \[ \mathcal{P}_{\gamma} := \{p \text{ is prime and } p = \lfloor n^{1/\gamma} \rfloor \text{ for some } n \in \mathbb{N}\} \] and arbitrary nilsequences when…
We try to find all quadruples of positive integers $(m,a,b,c)$ with $a \geq b \geq c$ such that there exists a distinct covering system with minimum modulus $m$ and least common multiple of the moduli $2^a 3^b 5^c$. We obtain complete…
The Wagstaff numbers $W_p = (2^p + 1)/3$ for odd primes $p$ are the natural $+1$ companions of the Mersenne numbers. Known primality proofs for $W_p$ with $p \geq 2617$ rely on the elliptic-curve primality proving algorithm of Atkin-Morain;…
Let $F$ be a totally real number field. We prove that a character of the spherical Hecke algebra appearing in the completed cohomology of Hilbert modular varieties is modular if the associated Galois representation is absolutely…
In this paper we study the equation $$ x^k + (x+1)^k = y^n,\quad n\geq 3, $$ when $k\equiv 2\pmod{4}$. We prove that the only solutions are for $x=0, -1$ when $6\leq k\leq 100$ or for a $k$ with odd prime factors congruent to $3\pmod{4}$.…
For congruence subgroups commensurable with $\operatorname{SL}_2$ over number fields, we study cusp counts with certain multiplicities. We prove that the ratio of the total weighted cusp count to the group index is bounded by a negative…
In this note, we obtain an exact formula for the $q$-adic valuation of $\sigma_k(n)$ where $q$ is an odd prime, allowing us to derive an explicit upper bound which is asymptotically better than the previous bound obtained by Zhao when $n$…
Let $K/\mathbf{Q}_p$ be an unramified extension of degree $f$ with residue field $k$. Let $\sigma$ be an irreducible representation of $\mathrm{GL}_n(k)$ over $\overline{\mathbf{F}}_p$. For $n\ge 3$, we prove that the universal…
We consider the Linnik--Goldbach problem of writing all large even integers as the sum of two primes and a fixed number of powers of 2. We show that, under the generalised Riemann hypothesis, one can use 6 powers of two. In addition, we…
This paper provides the first criteria for the linear independence of multiple polylogarithm values over algebraic number fields. In particular, we derive novel results regarding the linear independence of products of polylogarithms at…
We study multiplicative dependence between terms of the $k$-generalized Pell sequence $(P_n^{(k)})_{n\ge 2-k}$, defined by the linear recurrence \[ P_n^{(k)} = 2P_{n-1}^{(k)} + P_{n-2}^{(k)} + \dots + P_{n-k}^{(k)}, \] with initial…
We give negative answers to two questions of Bergelson, Moreira, and Richter concerning recurrence along functions from a Hardy field. For the pair \(f_1(t)=t^{3/2}\) and \(f_2(t)=\lambda t^{3/2}+t\), where \(\lambda\in\mathbb…
Let $p$ be a given modulus, let $u$ be prime to $p$, and consider the linear permutation $u\cdot n\pmod p$ of the residue system modulo $p$. Writing $\langle x\rangle_p$ to denote the least nonnegative residue of $x$ modulo $p$, we say that…
We prove one-level density results for L-functions attached to primitive forms of level q, averaged over square-free q, conditional on the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH). We treat the even and odd orthogonal families separately and…
Maass forms for $SL(n,\mathbb{Z})$ are defined to be eigenfunctions of the Casimir operators $\mathcal{D}_{m,n}$ of orders $1 \leq m \leq n$ for $GL(n,\mathbb{R})$. For any $1 \leq m \leq n$ and Maass form $\phi$ for $SL(n,\mathbb{Z})$, we…
In our previous work, we gave a formula for the Frobenius eigenvalues of van der Geer--van der Vlugt curves in characteristic 2 by considering suitable quotients of the curve. Although the formula is explicit, it depends on many choices,…
