Let $\alpha, \beta$ be two relatively prime algebraic integers in a number field $K$ and $N$ be a positive integer. We show that the number of $n\in\{1,2,\dots,N\}$ such that the $\beta$-adic expansion of $\alpha^n$ omits a given digit is…
Let $\alpha,\beta \in \mathbb{R}_{>0}$ be such that $\alpha,\beta$ are quadratic and $\mathbb{Q}(\alpha)\neq \mathbb{Q}(\beta)$. Then every subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$ definable in both $(\mathbb{R},{<},+,\mathbb{Z},x\mapsto \alpha x)$ and…
Let $\alpha$ be a fixed quadratic irrational. Consider the Diophantine equation \[ y^a\ =\ q_{N_1} + \cdots + q_{N_K},\quad N_1 \geq \cdots \geq N_{K} \geq 0,\quad a, y \geq 2 \] where $(q_N)_{N\,\geq\,0}$ is the sequence of convergent…
Let $K$ be a number field with ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_K$. Let $\mathcal{N}_K$ be the set of positive integers $n$ such that there exist units $\varepsilon, \delta \in \mathcal{O}_K^\times$ satisfying $\varepsilon + \delta = n$. We…
We study two positional numeration systems which are known for allowing very efficient addition and multiplication of complex numbers. The first one uses the base $\beta = \imath - 1$ and the digit set $\mathcal{D} = \{ 0, \pm 1, \pm \imath…
Given a fixed quadratic extension K of Q, we consider the distribution of elements in K of norm 1 (denoted N). When K is an imaginary quadratic extension, N is naturally embedded in the unit circle in C and we show that it is…
For any given positive integer $m$ we construct certain totally positive algebraic integers $\alpha$ of a real bi-quadratic field $K$ and obtain some necessary conditions for which $m\alpha$ can not be represented as sum of integral…
A number field $k$ admits a binary integral quadratic form which represents all integers locally but not globally if and only if the class number of $k$ is bigger than one. In this case, there are only finitely many classes of such binary…
In this paper, we study representations of real numbers in the positional numeration system with negative basis, as introduced by Ito and Sadahiro. We focus on the set $\Z_{-\beta}$ of numbers whose representation uses only non-negative…
In this paper we deal with a problem of Peth\H{o} related to existence of quartic algebraic integer $\alpha$ for which $$ \beta=\frac{4\alpha^4}{\alpha^4-1}-\frac{\alpha}{\alpha-1} $$ is a quadratic algebraic number. By studying rational…
Let A be an abelian threefold defined over a number field K with potential multiplication by an imaginary quadratic field M. If A has signature (2,1) and the multiplication by M is defined over an at most quadratic extension, we attach to A…
Let $K$ be a number field, $k\geq 2$ an integer, $(K^*)^k$ the $k$-fold direct product of $K^*$ with coordinatewise multiplication, and $\Gamma$ a finitely generated subgroup of rank $r$ of $(K^*)^k$. Further, let $H(\alpha )$ denote the…
We introduce and study series expansions of real numbers with an arbitrary Cantor real base $\boldsymbol{\beta}=(\beta_n)_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$, which we call $\boldsymbol{\beta}$-representations. In doing so, we generalize both representations…
The goal of this paper is to obtain lower bounds on the height of an algebraic number in a relative setting, extending previous work of Amoroso and Masser. Specifically, in our first theorem we obtain an effective bound for the height of an…
Let $\mathbb{I}$ denote an imaginary quadratic field or the field $\mathbb{Q}$ of rational numbers and $\mathbb{Z}_{\mathbb{I}}$ its ring of intergers. We shall prove an explicit Baker type lower bound for $\mathbb{Z}_{\mathbb{I}}$-linear…
Let Q be a non-singular quadratic form with integer coefficients. When Q is indefinite we provide new upper bounds for the least non-trivial integral solution to the equation Q=0. When Q is positive definite we provide improved upper bounds…
We study $\alpha$-adic expansions of numbers in an extension field, that is to say, left infinite representations of numbers in the positional numeration system with the base $\alpha$, where $\alpha$ is an algebraic conjugate of a Pisot…
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 introduce a zeta function counting imaginary quadratic number fields by their class numbers. It is proved that such a function is rational depending only on the eight roots of unity of degrees $1$ and $2$. As a corollary, one gets a…
Let $\beta>1$ be fixed. We consider the $(\frak{b, d})$ numeration system, where the base ${\frak b}=(b_k)_{k\geq 0}$ is a sequence of positive real numbers satisfying $\lim_{k\rightarrow \infty}b_{k+1}/b_k=\beta$, and the set of digits…
