Let $(\lambda_f(n))_{n\geqslant1}$ be the Hecke eigenvalues of a holomorphic cusp form $f$. We prove that the exponent of distribution of $\lambda_f*1$ in arithmetic progressions is as large as $\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{70}$ when the modulus…
In this paper, we investigate the coefficients of the Taylor expansion of the complex $L$-series of any elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$. We prove that, in the family of quadratic twists by all the discriminants $d$, these coefficients are…
We improve a bound due to the second author on number of rational points on smooth surfaces in $\mathbb{P}^3$ over finite fields and look at families of surfaces that achieve or nearly achieve this bound, for which we compute their exact…
We study Greenberg's conjecture for cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_2$-extensions of real quadratic fields. Let $K=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{pq})$, where $$ p\equiv 1 \mod 8,\qquad q\equiv 9 \mod {16},\qquad \left(\frac{p}{q}\right)=-1. $$ Under the…
Over an arbitrary field of characteristic different from $2$ admitting an anisotropic torsion $3$-fold Pfister form, we apply a construction due to Merkurjev to produce an algebra with orthogonal involution of degree $6$ which admits proper…
In this paper, we present several novel integral representations of Catalan's constant. We begin by deriving an initial result expressed as a double integral. Subsequently, as a consequence of this result, we establish a general theorem…
Motivated by the first author's earlier work in 2024, we use the resonance method to establish some Omega results for Dirichlet $L$-functions, extending the previous results.
We present a special-purpose algorithm for factoring semiprimes $N = pq$ in which one prime factor satisfies $p \approx c\,(a/b)^n$ for positive integers $a, b, c, n$ with $a > b$ and $\gcd(a,b) = 1$. Given the correct parameters $(a, b)$,…
Let \(d_k(p)\) denote the natural density of positive integers whose \(k\)-th smallest prime divisor is \(p\). Erd\H{o}s asked whether, for each fixed \(k\), the sequence \(p\mapsto d_k(p)\) is unimodal as \(p\) ranges over the primes.…
Let $p$ be an odd prime, and define $$G_p(x)=\prod_{k=1}^{(p-1)/2}\left(x-e^{2\pi i k^2/p}\right).$$ In this paper we study values of $G_p(x)$ at roots of unity via Galois theory, and confirm some previous conjectures. For example, for any…
We provide a simple algorithm for calculating all generators of power integral bases in pure quintic fields. This procedure involves the usual standard elements like Baker's method, LLL-reduction. The main purpose of the paper is to…
We consider the problem of characterizing upper-triangular matrices $M=\begin{pmatrix}p&r\\0&q\end{pmatrix}\in M_2(\mathbb Z)$ which can be represented in the form $A^2-B^2$ with upper-triangular integer matrices $A$ and $B$ and give a…
In the light of a series of papers on moving vectors, we define and study core abaci of classical affine types for arbitrary charge. This greatly extends the concept of cores with charge zero, and make us being able to parameterize the…
Let $\mathbf{B}_{\mathrm{dR}}^{+, \dagger} \subset \mathbf{B}_{\mathrm{dR}}^{+}$ be the ``convergent" de Rham period ring which is the (un-completed) stalk at the de Rham point of the Fargues--Fontaine curve. We develop a Tate--Sen…
Given non-CM elliptic curves $E_1$ and $E_2$ over $\mathbb{Q}$, we study the natural density of primes $p$ of good reduction for which the orders of the groups $E_1(\mathbb{F}_p)$ and $E_2(\mathbb{F}_p)$ are coprime. This problem may be…
Inspired by a beautiful formula of Bertolini, Darmon, and Prasanna -- the oft-termed BDP formula -- we address questions about the non-vanishing of non-torsion points under $p$-adic logarithms of abelian varieties. We largely consider…
We prove that, over an arbitrary CM field, every symmetric formal Fourier-Jacobi series converges and equals the Fourier-Jacobi expansion of a genuine Hermitian Hilbert modular form. As an application, we show that the Chow-valued Kudla…
We show that every $N \geq 2$ can be written as the sum of positive integers $a$ and $b$ where $\Omega(ab) \leq 40$. The result is obtained through the direct application of an explicit lower bound Selberg sieve along with some computation…
The equation commonly known as Sury's identity is a deceptively simple summation formula that connects the Lucas numbers, Fibonacci numbers, and powers of two. Many authors have given extensions and generalizations over the years; in this…
In this short note, we prove a result about the non-generic part of the cohomology of certain compact unitary Shimura varieties for good $p$, partially extending a result of Boyer in the case of Harris--Taylor unitary Shimura varieties. Our…
