Let G be a finite group. Denote by \psi(G) the sum \psi(G)=\sum_{x\in G}|x| where |x| denotes the order of the element x, and by o(G) the quotient o(G)=\frac{\psi(G)}{|G|}. Confirming a conjecture posed by E.I. Khukhro, A. Moreto and M.…

We construct a family of ideals representing ideal classes of order 2 in quadratic number fields and show that relations between their ideal classes are governed by certain cyclic quartic extensions of the rationals.

We establish the following two main results on order types of points in general position in the plane (realizable simple planar order types, realizable uniform acyclic oriented matroids of rank $3$): (a) The number of extreme points in an…

The aim of this note is to give an elementary formulation of Tomio Kubota's proof of Satz 4 in his paper in Nagoya Math. t. 10 (1956) since this proposition is a cornerstone for the computation of the order of the Polya group of the…

We show that for fixed $d>3$ and $n$ growing to infinity there are at least $(n!)^{d-2 \pm o(1)}$ different labeled combinatorial types of $d$-polytopes with $n$ vertices. This is about the square of the previous best lower bounds. As an…

Given a random real quadratic field from $\{ \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{p}\,) ~|~ p \text{ primes} \}$, the conjectural probability $\mathbb{P}(h=q)$ that it has class number $q$ is given for all positive odd integers $q$. Some related conjectures of…

As was pointed out by Nikulin [8] and Vinberg [10], a right-angled polyhedron of finite volume in hyperbolic n-space $\mathbb{H}^n$ has at least one cusp for $n\geq 5$. We obtain non-trivial lower bounds on the number of cusps of such…

The Upper Bound Theorem for convex polytopes implies that the $p$-th Betti number of the \v{C}ech complex of any set of $N$ points in $\mathbb R^d$ and any radius satisfies $\beta_{p} = O(N^{m})$, with $m = \min \{ p+1, \lceil d/2 \rceil…

For an element $g$ in a group $X$, we say that $g$ has 2-part order $2^{a}$ if $2^{a}$ is the largest power of 2 dividing the order of $g$. We prove lower bounds on the proportion of elements in finite classical groups in odd characteristic…

We show that the maximal number of singular points of a normal quartic surface $X \subset \mathbb{P}^3_K$ defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic 2 is at most 12, if the minimal resolution of $X$ is not a…

We establish partition regularity of the generalised Pythagorean equation in five or more variables. Furthermore, we show how Rado's characterisation of a partition regular equation remains valid over the set of positive $k$th powers,…

Let $a\geq 1$ and $n>1$ be odd integers. For a given prime $p$, we prove under certain conditions that the class groups of imaginary quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{a^2-4p^n})$ have a subgroup isomorphic to $\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$. We…

We study square-tiled tori, that is, tori obtained from a finite collection of unit squares by parallel side identifications. Square-tiled tori can be parametrized in a natural way that allows to count the number of square-tiled tori tiled…

Let K/Q be Galois, and let eta in K* whose conjugates are multiplicatively independent. For a prime p, unramified, prime to eta, let np be the residue degree of p and gp the number of P I p, then let o\_P(eta) and o\_p(eta) be the orders of…

In this paper, it is proved that there is, up to isomorphism, a unique generalized quadrangle of order (4,16).

It will be demonstrated that there is a thin basis of order four of minimal cardinality #A(x) = O(x^.25). The current literature shows the existence of a thin basis of order four of cardinality #A(x) = O(x^(.25+{\epsilon}), {\epsilon} > 0,…

In this paper, if prime $p\equiv 3\pmod 4$ is sufficiently large then we prove an upper bound on the number of occurences of any arbitrary pattern of quadratic residues and nonresidues of length $k$ as $k$ tends to $\lceil \log_2 p\rceil$.…

We give details of a formerly known relation between ternary quadratic forms and quaternion orders through the even Clifford algebra. Based on this and classifications of ternary quadratic forms we give a completely explicit classification…

Let $f$ be a positive definite (non-classic) integral quaternary quadratic form. We say $f$ is strongly $s$-regular if it satisfies a regularity property on the number of representations of squares of integers. In this article, we prove…

We give a hierarchial set of axioms for mathematical origami. The hierachy gives the fields of Pythagorean numbers, first discussed by Hilbert, the field of Euclidean constructible numbers which are obtained by the usual constructions of…
