This paper investigates the asymptotics of the number of prime values taken by a polynomial in several variables with integer coefficients. Based on probabilistic heuristics and the multidimensional Bateman Horn conjecture, the expected…
We connect generalizations of the classical Hurwitz class numbers coming from two different frameworks: one introduced by Pei and Wang, arising from the generalized Cohen--Eisenstein series, and another by Li, Skoruppa, and Zhou, arising…
We develop an algebraic framework over arbitrary quadratic fields $L = \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{D})$ to generalize the Miller-Rabin primality test. Consequently, we present a deterministic primality test for integers of the form $N = K p^{\ell} -…
In this short note we determine the set $\Phi^\infty(7)$ of Abelian groups that appear as torsion groups of infinitely many elliptic curves (up to $\overline \mathbb Q$-isomorphism) over number fields of degree 7.
We investigate a particular choice of the Ford fundamental domain of the congruence subgroup $\Gamma_0(N)$ and define a notion of complexity $c(N)$ accordingly, which is a nonnegative integer and carries some information on the shape of the…
We provide conditional and unconditional asymptotic formulae for the exponential sums $\sum_\gamma\,\gamma^{-i\tau}$, where the summation is over the ordinates of the nontrivial zeros $\rho=\beta+i\gamma$ of the Riemann zeta-function. In…
Let $K$ be a finite extension of $\mathbf{Q}_p$ and let $\mathcal{G}_K = \mathrm{Gal}(\overline{\mathbf{Q}_p}/K)$. Lately, interest has risen around a generalization of the theory of $(\varphi,\Gamma)$-modules, replacing the cyclotomic…
We present a two-dimensional delta symbol method that facilitates a version of the Kloosterman refinement of the circle method, addressing a question posed by Heath-Brown. As an application, we establish the asymptotic formula for the…
The stability theory of compact metric spaces with positive topological dimension is a well-established area in Dynamical Systems. A central result, attributed to Walters, connects the concepts of topological stability and the shadowing…
In modern usage the Bernoulli numbers and Bernoulli polynomials follow Euler's approach and are defined using generating functions. We consider the functional equation $f(x)+x^k=f(x+1)$ and show that a solution can be derived from…
Let $F$ be a number field, and $\pi$ a regular algebraic cuspidal automorphic representation of $\mathrm{GL}_N(\mathbb{A}_F)$ of symplectic type. When $\pi$ is spherical at all primes $\mathfrak{p}|p$, we construct a $p$-adic $L$-function…
We prove a structural result for sets of integers with doubling at most $4 + \delta$, with $\delta>0$ sufficiently small. This generalises earlier work of Eberhard--Green--Manners which dealt with sets of integers with doubling strictly…
Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we show that for $k>0$ $$ \frac{1}{T}\text{meas}\Big\{t\in [T,2T]:|\zeta(1/2+{\rm i} t)|>(\log T)^k\Big\}\leq C_k \frac{(\log T)^{-k^2}}{\sqrt{\log\log T}}, $$ where $C_k=\exp(e^{ck})$ for some absolute…
This paper presents various transcendence results in the ring of integers modulo infinitely large primes $\mathcal{A}$. In the ring $\mathcal{A}$, one can consider two notions of transcendence. One is based on the notion of finite algebraic…
Let $q=p^n$, $r\in \mathbb{Z}_{\ge 2}$, $e=q-1$, and $k=\frac{q^r-1}{e}$. In this paper, we study the cyclotomic numbers $(a,b)_{q-1}$ over $\mathbb{F}_{q^r}$. We prove that $(a,b)_{q-1}\le \left\lceil \frac{k}{2}\right\rceil$ for all $0\le…
A fundamental conjecture formulated by Thakur in 2009, which has guided significant developments in function field arithmetic, asserts that multiple zeta values (MZV's) in positive characteristic of fixed weight are linearly independent…
We study the deterministic recursion $n_{j+1} = n_j - \tau(n_j)$, where $\tau(n)$ denotes the divisor function, and the associated orbit length $a(x)$. Heuristics based on the average order of $\tau(n)$ suggest that $a(x) \asymp x / \log…
We compare several complexity measures for self-mappings of finite fields. In particular, we show that Carlitz rank and additive index cannot be small simultaneously up to trivial exceptions. That is, these two measures detect cryptographic…
We prove the congruence $\sum_{1 \leq k < \sqrt{N}} \sigma_0 (N - k^2) \equiv 0 \pmod 4$, where $\sigma_0(m)$ denotes the number of positive divisors of $m$, for $N = An + B$ with $(A,B) \in \{ (16,14),$ $(36,30),$ $(72,42),$ $(196,70),$…
We give a metaplectic proof of Hilbert reciprocity, and hence of quadratic reciprocity, in which the local phase is the Kashiwara--Maslov phase of a triple of Lagrangians. In rank two the phase of the ordered triple $(L_\infty,L_a,L_0)$ is…
