We study certain new relative trace formulas on (non-reductive) period integrals involving Weil representations, in the context of the relative Langlands program. We study normal representatives using Galois theory, and establish geometric…

We revisit the effective Erdos-Wintner theorem for Zeckendorf expansions. Drmota and the author obtained a uniform Kolmogorov bound whose error involves $T\sum_{j>L-2h}|f(F_j)|$, which assumes absolute convergence of the linear tail $\sum_j…

The ring of integers and the discriminant are determined for number fields which are simple radical extensions.

Let $k$ be a global field, $K/k$ be a finite separable field extension and $L/k$ be the Galois closure of $K/k$ with Galois groups $G={\rm Gal}(L/k)$ and $H={\rm Gal}(L/K)\lneq G$. In 1931, Hasse proved that if $G$ is cyclic, then the Hasse…

Ap\'ery's remarkable discovery of rapidly converging continued fractions with small coefficients for $\zeta(2)$ and $\zeta(3)$ has led to a flurry of important activity in an incredible variety of different directions. Our purpose is to…

We prove that the Rubik's cube group can be realized as a Galois group over the rationals.

We prove a variant of Manin's conjecture for Campana points on wonderful compactifications of semi-simple algebraic groups of adjoint type. We use this to provide evidence for a new conjecture on the leading constant in Manin's conjecture…

Let $X$ be an algebraic variety over a field $K \subset \overline{{\mathbb{Q}}_p}$ and $f$ be a self map. When $K$ is a local field, the boundedness of $f$-periods in $X(K)$ is a well studied question. We will study the same question for…

We study the prime values of Ramanujan's tau function $\tau(n)$. Lehmer found that $n=251^2=63001$ is the smallest $n$ such that $\tau(n)$ is prime: $$\tau(251^2)=-80561663527802406257321747.$$ We prove that in most arithmetic progressions…

In this paper we study meromorphic functions solutions of linear shift difference equations in coefficients in $\mathbb{C}(x)$ involving the operator $\rho: y(x)\mapsto y(x+h)$, for some $h\in \mathbb{C}^*$. We prove that if $f$ is solution…

In this paper we consider the problem of computing the difference Galois groups of order three equations for a large class of difference operators including the shift operator (Case S), the $q$-difference operator (Case Q), the Mahler…

In this paper we count the number $N_n^{\text{tor}}(X)$ of $n$-dimensional algebraic tori over $\mathbb{Q}$ whose Artin conductor of the associated character is bounded by $X$. This can be understood as a generalization of counting number…

Fix a positive prime power $q$, and let $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ be the ring of polynomials over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. Suppose $A \subseteq \{f \in \mathbb{F}_q[t]\colon\text{deg}~ f \le N\}$ contains no pair of elements whose…

Green showed that, conditional on GRH, a subset $A \subseteq [N]$ with $\mid A \mid \gg_{\epsilon} N^{\frac{11}{12}+\epsilon}$ must contain two elements whose difference is $p-1$ for $p$ a prime. We prove an analogous unconditional result…

In this paper,we develop a novel representation of the zeta function expressed as the limiting difference between two structured double sums. This approach leads to a new and elegant identity involving maximum functions and additive terms,…

We introduce two new types of towers of Drinfeld modular curves. These towers originate from a specific domain $\mathcal{A} $ and are analogous to the towers of rank-two Drinfeld modular curves over the polynomial ring. Specifically, the…

We study the family of algebraic curves of genus $\geq 1$ defined by the affine equations $y^s=ax^r+b$ over a number field $k$, where $r \geq 2$ and $s\geq 2$ are fixed integers. Assuming the strong version of Lang's conjecture on varieties…

We introduce a geometric-arithmetic approach to the analysis of the Flint Hills series, linking its convergence behavior to the irrationality measure of pi. The framework highlights the interplay between the distribution of near-multiples…

Let $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ be a finite field with $q^n$ elements. An element $\alpha \in \mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ is called $k$-normal over $\mathbb{F}_q$ if $\alpha$ and its conjugates generate a vector subspace of $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ of dimension…

We present several elementary closed-forms that express a non-trivial divisor for every composite integer $n > 1$. Each closed-form consists of a fixed number of elementary arithmetic operations drawn from the set: addition, subtraction,…
