We show that if $K$ is a monogenic, primitive, totally real number field, that contains units of every signature, then there exists a lower bound for the rank of integer universal quadratic forms defined over $K$. In particular, we extend…
We establish some upper and lower bounds for the number of rational points of Prym varieties over finite fields.
Recently, Dubickas and Smyth constructed and examined the metric Mahler measure and the metric na\"ive height on the multiplicative group of algebraic numbers. We give a non-Archimedean version of the metric Mahler measure, denoted…
We give an upper bound for the norm of the determinant of additively indecomposable, totally positive definite quadratic forms defined over the ring of integers of totally real number fields. We apply these results to find lower and upper…
We prove a lower bound that agrees with Manin's prediction for the number of rational points of bounded height on the Fermat cubic surface. As an application we provide a simple counterexample to Manin's conjecture over the rationals.
We prove sharp estimates on the quadratic strand of the resolution of any homogeneous prime ideal in a standard graded polynomial ring over an arbitrary field. Our bounds only depend on the height of the prime ideal, and they are optimal…
We estimate, in a number field, the number of elements and the maximal number of linearly independent elements, with prescribed bounds on their valuations. As a by-product, we obtain new bounds for the successive minima of ideal lattices.…
The quantitative assessment of the entanglement in multipartite quantum states is, apart from its fundamental importance, a practical problem. Recently there has been significant progress in developing new methods to determine certain…
A criterion is given for studying (explicit) Baker type lower bounds of linear forms in numbers $1,\Theta_1,...,\Theta_m\in\mathbb{C}^*$ over the ring $\mathbb{Z}_{\mathbb{I}}$ of an imaginary quadratic field $\mathbb{I}$. This work deals…
Let $F$ be a univariate polynomial or rational fraction of degree $d$ defined over a number field. We give bounds from above on the absolute logarithmic Weil height of $F$ in terms of the heights of its values at small integers: we review…
We construct small models of number fields and deduce a better bound for the number of number fields of given degree and bounded discriminant.
A. Dubickas and C. Smyth introduced the metric Mahler measure $$ M_1(\alpha) = \inf\left\{\sum_{n=1}^N M(\alpha_n): N \in \mathbb N, \alpha_1 \cdots \alpha_N = \alpha\right\}, $$ where $M(\alpha)$ denotes the usual (logarithmic) Mahler…
This paper studies explicit and theoretical bounds for several interesting quantities in number theory, conditionally on the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis. Specifically, we improve the existing explicit bounds for the least quadratic…
We study Laurent polynomials in any number of variables that are sums of at most $k$ monomials. We first show that the Mahler measure of such a polynomial is at least $h/2^{k-2}$, where $h$ is the height of the polynomial. Next, restricting…
Our aim is to explain instances in which the value of the logarithmic Mahler measure of a polynomial can be written in an unexpectedly neat manner. To this end we examine polynomials defining rational curves, which allows their zero-locus…
We improve known upper bounds for the minimal dispersion of a point set in the unit cube and its inverse in both the periodic and non-periodic settings. Some of our bounds are sharp up to logarithmic factors.
We prove upper bounds on the number of rational points on transcendental curves in arbitrary $1$-h-minimal fields, similar to the Pila--Wilkie counting theorem in the o-minimal setting. These results extend results due to…
We study elements of small norm in quadratic fields of Riachaud-Degert type.
We establish an upper bound on the number of real multiquadratic fields that admit a universal quadratic lattice of a given rank, or contain a given amount of indecomposable elements modulo totally positive units, obtaining density zero…
Recent work of Fili and the author examines an ultrametric version of the Mahler measure, denoted $M_\infty(\alpha)$ for an algebraic number $\alpha$. We show that the computation of $M_\infty(\alpha)$ can be reduced to a certain search…
