We initiate a general quantitative study of sets of $\mathcal{M}$-points, which are special subsets of rational points, generalizing Campana points, Darmon points, and squarefree solutions of Diophantine equations. We propose an asymptotic…
We systematically analyze a class of hexanomial functions over finite fields of characteristic $2$ proposed by Dillon (2006) as candidates for almost perfect nonlinear (APN) functions, significantly extending earlier partial-APN results.…
An effective upper bound is established for the least non-trivial integer solution to the system of cubic forms \[ \begin{cases} F = c_{1}x_1^3 + c_{2}x_2^3 + \cdots + c_{n}x_n^3 = 0, \\ G = d_{1}x_1^3 + d_{2}x_2^3 + \cdots + d_{n}x_n^3 =…
The Beilinson--Bloch conjecture is a generalization of the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture, which relates the ranks of Chow groups of smooth projective varieties over global fields to the order of vanishing of $L$-functions. We prove…
In this follow-up paper, we again inspect a surprising relationship between the set of $m$-periodic points of a polynomial map $\varphi_{d, c}$ defined by $\varphi_{d, c}(z) = z^d + c$ for all $c, z \in \mathcal{O}_{K}$ and the coefficient…
In this paper, we apply the Dirichlet convolution method to \begin{equation*} T_{k}(x)=\sum_{n \leq x} d_{k}(n), \end{equation*} for $k\ge 3$, where $d_{k}(n)$ is the number of ways to represent $n$ as a product of $k$ positive integer…
We investigate when the exponential sum $S_f(x,\alpha) := \sum_{n\le x}f(n)\mathrm{e}(n\alpha)$ is bounded, for a multiplicative function $f$ and $\alpha\in\mathbb{R}$. We show that under natural assumptions, $S_f(x,\alpha)$ is bounded only…
We investigate the variation in the total number of points in a random $p\times p$ square in $\mathbb{Z}^2$ where the $p$-adic valuation of a given polynomial in two variables is precisely $1$. We establish that this quantity follows a…
Constructing permutation polynomials over finite fields, particularly those with simple algebraic structure in multiple variables, is a fundamental problem with applications in cryptography and coding theory. Recently, Li and Kaleyski (IEEE…
We determine the Galois module structure of the ring of integers for all cubic fields using roots of the generic cyclic cubic polynomial $f_n(X)=X^3-nX^2-(n+3)X-1$. Let $L_n=\mathbb Q(\rho_n)$ be a cyclic cubic field with Galois group…
This article explains how to practically compute L-invariants of p-new eigenforms using p-adic L-series and exceptional zero phenomena. As proof of the utility, we compiled a data set consisting of over 150,000 L-invariants. We analyze…
Let $K$ be a number field, let $A$ be a finite-dimensional semisimple $K$-algebra, and let $\Lambda$ be an $\mathcal{O}_{K}$-order in $A$. We give practical algorithms that determine whether $\Lambda$ has stably free cancellation (SFC). As…
We answer various questions concerning the distribution of extensions of a given central simple algebra $K$ over a number field. Specifically, we give asymptotics for the count of inner Galois extensions $L/K$ of fixed degree and center…
We give an explicit $O(x/T)$ error term for the truncated Riemann--von Mangoldt explicit formula. For large $x$, this provides a modest improvement over previous work, which we demonstrate via an application to a result on primes between…
Under a stronger genericity condition, we prove the local analogue of ghost conjecture of Bergdall and Pollack. As applications, we deduce in this case (a) a folklore conjecture of Breuil--Buzzard--Emerton on the crystalline slopes of…
Let $E$ be an Anderson $A$-module over $\mathbb{C}_{\infty}$. The period lattice of $E$ is related to its module of special functions by means of a non-canonical isomorphism introduced by the authors in [GM21]. In this paper, we explain how…
Building on Mazur's 1978 work on prime degree isogenies, Kenku determined in 1981 all possible cyclic isogenies of elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$. Although more than 40 years have passed, the determination of cyclic isogenies of elliptic…
This paper deals with the fundamental period $\tilde{\pi}$ of the Carlitz module. The main theorem states that the Carlitz period and all its hyperderivatives are algebraically independent over the base field $\mathbb{F}_q(\theta)$. Our…
In this article we show that the coordinates of a period lattice generator of the $n$-th tensor power of the Carlitz module are algebraically independent, if $n$ is prime to the characteristic. The main part of the paper, however, is…
Let $\mathfrak{p}$ be a monic irreducible polynomial in $A:=\mathbb{F}_q[\theta]$, the ring of polynomials in the indeterminate $\theta$ over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, and let $\zeta$ be a root of $\mathfrak{p}$ in an algebraic…
