To study a Dirichlet polynomial $f(s)=\frac{a_{m}}{m^{s}}+\cdots +\frac{a_{n}}{n^{s}}$ by regarding it as a multivariate polynomial via the canonical map $\phi$ sending $p_i^{-s}$ to an indeterminate $X_i$, with $p_i$ the $i$th prime…

Let $F_{k,d}(n)$ be the maximal size of a set ${A}\subseteq [n]$ such that the equation \[a_1a_2\dots a_k=x^d, \; a_1<a_2<\ldots<a_k\] has no solution with $a_1,a_2,\ldots,a_k\in {A}$ and integer $x$. Erd\H{o}s, S\'ark\"ozy and T. S\'os…

Consider an irreducible bilinear form $f(x_1,x_2;y_1,y_2)$ with integer coefficients. We derive an upper bound for the number of integer points $(\mathbf{x},\mathbf{y})\in\mathbb{P}^1\times\mathbb{P}^1$ inside a box satisfying the equation…

We study nonconstant rational solutions of \[ x'=A_3(t)x^{n_3}+A_2(t)x^{n_2}+A_1(t)x^{n_1}, \qquad 1<n_1<n_2<n_3, \] with $A_i\in\Bbbk[t]$, $\Bbbk\in\{\mathbb R,\mathbb C\}$. We prove that every such solution is of the form $x=1/p(t)$, and…

Let $f_1, ..., f_R$ be rational forms of degree $d \ge 2$ in $n > \sigma + R(R+1)(d-1)2^{d-1}$ variables, where $\sigma$ is the dimension of the affine variety cut out by the condition $\mathrm{rank}(\nabla f_k)_{k=1}^R < R$. Assume that…

In this paper we study the subset sum problem with real numbers. Starting from the given problem, we formulate a quadratic maximization problem over a polytope, P, which is eventually written as a distance maximization to a fixed point over…

A point in the $d$-dimensional integer lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$ is primitive when its coordinates are relatively prime. Two primitive points are multiples of one another when they are opposite, and for this reason, we consider half of the…

We show that the polytopes obtained from the Birkhoff polytope by imposing additional inequalities restricting the "longest increasing subsequence" have Ehrhart quasi-polynomials which are honest polynomials, even though they are just…

Let $1<c<d$ be two relatively prime integers, $g_{c,d}=cd-c-d$ and $\mathbb{P}$ is the set of primes. For any given integer $k \geq 1$, we prove that $$\#\left\{p^k\le g_{c,d}:p\in \mathbb{P}, ~p^k=cx+dy,~x,y\in \mathbb{Z}_{\geqslant0}…

We estimate the lattice sums arising in the context of the integer point counting in polyhedra.

For a finite point set $P \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, denote by $\text{diam}(P)$ the ratio of the largest to the smallest distances between pairs of points in $P$. Let $c_{d, \alpha}(n)$ be the largest integer $c$ such that any $n$-point set $P…

In this paper, we address the problem of counting integer points in a rational polytope described by $P(y) = \{ x \in \mathbb{R}^m \colon Ax = y, x \geq 0\}$, where $A$ is an $n \times m$ integer matrix and $y$ is an $n$-dimensional integer…

Considering the L-function of exponential sums associated to a polynomial over a finite field F_q, Deligne proved that a reciprocal root's p-adic order is a rational number in the interval [0, 1]. Based on hypergeometric theory, in this…

Let $\lambda_i, \mu_j$ be non-zero real numbers not all of the same sign and let $a_i, b_k$ be non-zero integers not all of the same sign. We investigate a mixed Diophantine system of the shape \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} \left|…

The Ehrhart polynomial of a lattice polytope $P$ encodes information about the number of integer lattice points in positive integral dilates of $P$. The $h^\ast$-polynomial of $P$ is the numerator polynomial of the generating function of…

Let $X\subseteq \mathbb{P}^3$ be a smooth projective surface of degree $d\ge 4$ defined over a number field $K$, and let $N_{X^{\prime}}(B)$ be the number of rational points of $X$ of height at most $B$ that do not lie on lines contained in…

Let $A,B,C,D$ be rational numbers such that $ABC \neq 0$, and let $n_1>n_2>n_3>0$ be positive integers. We solve the equation $$ Ax^{n_1}+Bx^{n_2}+Cx^{n_3}+D = f(g(x)),$$ in $f,g \in \mathbb{Q}[x]$. In sequel we use Bilu-Tichy method to…

In this note we consider Diophantine equations of the form \begin{equation*} a(x^p-y^q) = b(z^r-w^s), \quad \mbox{where}\quad \frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}+\frac{1}{r}+\frac{1}{s}=1, \end{equation*} with even positive integers $p,q,r,s$. We show…

We study a lattice point counting problem for spheres arising from the Heisenberg groups. In particular, we prove an upper bound on the number of points on and near large dilates of the unit spheres generated by the anisotropic norms…

Fixing a positive integer $r$ and $0 \le k \le r-1$, define $f^{\langle r,k \rangle}$ for every formal power series $f$ as $ f(x) = f^{\langle r,0 \rangle}(x^r)+xf^{\langle r,1 \rangle}(x^r)+ \cdots +x^{r-1}f^{\langle r,r-1 \rangle}(x^r).$…
