Elliptic curves over $\Q$ with $j$-invariant 0 or 1728 have additive reduction at all primes of bad reduction. In addition, all elliptic curves with $j$-invariant 0 have bad reduction at $p=3$ and all elliptic curves with $j$-invariant 1728…
Motivated by the work of Liu, we study certain canonical quotients of $G_{\emptyset}^T(K)$ -- the Galois group of the maximal unramified extension of a global field $K$ that is split completely at a finite nonempty set of places in $T$ --…
In this paper, we obtain analytical evaluations of the Ramanujan integral \[\textbf{R}_{C}(m,n)= \int_{0}^{\infty}\frac{x^m\,\cos(\pi nx)}{\exp{(2\pi\sqrt{x})-1}}dx\] subject to suitable convergence conditions in terms of an infinite series…
A central problem in arithmetic geometry is to construct non-torsion rational points on elliptic curves. We study a canonical quadratic point $\xi_C \in {\rm Jac}(C)$ attached to a smooth non-hyperelliptic curve of genus 4 and use it to…
Let $x(n):=\alpha n^d \mod 1$ for integer $d >1$ and non-zero real $\alpha$. We show that $\{x(n)\}_{n>0}$ has Poissonian $\ell$-point correlations for almost all choices of $\alpha$ when $d$ is large (depending on $\ell$). This falls in…
We consider a natural filtration $\boldsymbol{\operatorname{Bad}}(\delta) \subset \boldsymbol{\operatorname{Bad}}(\delta')$ for $\delta \geq \delta'>0$ on the set of badly approximable numbers to complement the filtration of the well…
We establish new transformation formulas involving theta functions and certain bilateral basic hypergeometric series. From these formulas, we construct companion $q$-series for a class of $q$-series such that the asymptotic expansion of…
We study a distribution problem over global function fields. More precisely, we describe the asymptotic distribution of rank $2$ CM Drinfeld modules among the irreducible components of the analytic reduction of the Drinfeld modular curve.…
Let $p$ be an odd prime, let $e\ge2$, and put $q=p^e$. We study the wild family \[ \varphi_{r,e}(x)=x^q+qp^r x^{q+1}=x^{p^e}+p^{r+e}x^{p^e+1} \qquad (r\ge0), \] and the inverse B\"ottcher coordinate $f_{r,e}(x)=x\sum_{k\ge0}a_k(r,e)x^k/k!$…
We construct flat integral moduli schemes of PEL type D and the corresponding flat orthogonal Rapoport--Zink spaces with parahoric level structure over a $p$-adic integer ring. The construction relies on proving a conjecture of…
Let $\mathcal{X}_0(N)$ be the Deligne--Rapoport modular stack of elliptic curves endowed with a cyclic rational $N$-isogeny over a number field $F$. Let $N\in\{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,12,13,16,18,25\},$ which are precisely the values for which…
We describe a method to show a plane quartic over a number field has no rational points. The method can be adapted to show that a curve does not have divisors of degree 1 or 2 and can be generalized to arbitrary smooth projective curves.…
We review Hilbert's classical analytical proof of the transcendence of the number $\mathrm{e}$. Then, we show how this result can be obtained algebraically by means of formal power series (FPS). We give two proofs of the transcendence of…
Let $A$ be a subset of an additive abelian semigroup $S$ and let $hA$ be the $h$-fold sumset of $A$. The following question is considered: Let $(A_q)_{q=1}^{\infty}$ be a strictly decreasing sequence of sets in $S$ and let $A =…
Let $F$ be a complete discretely valued field with ring of integers $\mathcal{O}$ and residue field of characteristic $p>2$. Let $G=\operatorname{GO}_{2n}$ denote the split orthogonal similitude group over $F$. For any parahoric level…
We develop a generalized Markov theory for the Markov--Lagrange and Markov spectra. The classical discrete Markov spectrum is governed by Markov numbers, the positive integers occurring in solutions of the Markov equation. We show that this…
In 1986, Kato and Kuzumaki introduced some Diophantine properties of fields, called the $C_i^q$ properties, and they hoped they would provide a good characterization of the cohomological dimension of fields. In this paper, we study the…
We establish asymptotic formulas for counting rational points near finite type curves on the plane, generalizing Huang's result.
Let $\zeta(.)$ denote the Riemann zeta function and let $a(.)$ and $A(.)$ respectively denote a multiplicative function and its corresponding summatory function. We consider the correlation $$ \langle a(n)A(n-1) \rangle (T) =…
This paper concerns SIC-POVMs and their relationship to class field theory. SIC-POVMs are generalized quantum measurements (POVMs) described by $d^2$ equiangular complex lines through the origin in $\mathbb{C}^d$. Weyl--Heisenberg SICs are…
