We consider the problem of determining whether a given prime p is a congruent number. We present an easily computed criterion that allows us to conclude that certain primes for which congruency was previously undecided, are in fact not…

Clemm and Trebat-Leder (2014) proved that the number of quadratic number fields with absolute discriminant bounded by $x$ over which there exist elliptic curves with good reduction everywhere and rational $j$-invariant is $\gg…

It is proved that for any finite dimensional representation of a prime order group over the field of rational numbers, polynomial invariants of degree at most $3$ separate the orbits. A result providing an upper degree bound for separating…

We provide an explicit estimate on the least primitive root mod $p^{2}$. We show, in particular, that every prime $p$ has a primitive root mod $p^{2}$ that is less than $p^{0.99}$.

For any odd prime $p,$ we construct an infinite family of pairs of imaginary quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d}),\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d+1})$ whose class numbers are both divisible by $p.$ One of our theorems settles Iizuka's conjecture for…

Let $p\equiv -q \equiv 5\pmod 8$ be two prime integers. In this paper, we investigate the unit groups of the fields $ L_1 =\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt 2, \sqrt{p}, \sqrt{q}, \sqrt{-1} )$ and $ L_1^+=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt 2, \sqrt{p}, \sqrt{q} )$.…

D.H. Lehmer found a quadratic polynomial such that 326 is a primitive root for the first 206 primes represented by this polynomial. It is shown that this is related to the class number one problem and prime producing quadratics. An…

In 1927, E. Artin proposed a conjecture for the natural density of primes $p$ for which $g$ generates $(\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z})^\times$. By carefully observing numerical deviations from Artin's originally predicted asymptotic, Derrick and…

For unitary groups associated to a ramified quadratic extension of a $p$-adic field, we define various regular formal moduli spaces of $p$-divisible groups with parahoric levels, characterize exceptional special divisors on them, and…

In this paper, we prove that every prime $p$ which is congruent to $4,7$ modulo $9$ is the sum of two rational cubes. This is $2/3$ of Sylvester's conjecture which has a history of nearly 150 years since 1879. In the proof, we use recent…

Let $q=p^k$ be a prime power, let $n\geq2$ be an integer and let $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ be a finite field. It is shown that the set of primitive normal elements is a Salem set. Furthermore, it is proved that this set is strongly equidistributed…

Let $P$ be a principal indecomposable module of a finite group $G$ in characteristic $2$ and let $\varphi$ be the Brauer character of the corresponding simple $G$-module. We show that $P$ affords a non-degenerate $G$-invariant quadratic…

Fix a finite collection of primes $\{ p_j \}$, not containing $2$ or $3$. Using some observations which arose from attempts to solve the SIC-POVMs problem in quantum information, we give a simple methodology for constructing an infinite…

A formula for the class number $h$ of the imaginary quadratic field $Q(\sqrt{-p}$ is obtained by counting on a specific way the quadratic residues of a prime number of the form $p=4n-1.$ Formulas for the sum of the quadratic residues are…

We extend the character sum method for the computation of densities in Artin primitive root problems developed by H. W. Lenstra and the authors to the situation of radical extensions of arbitrary rank. Our algebraic set-up identifies the…

Given an odd prime number $p$ and a $p$-stabilized Artin representation $\rho$ over $\mathbb{Q}$, we introduce a family of $p$-adic Stark regulators and we formulate an Iwasawa-Greenberg main conjecture and a $p$-adic Stark conjecture which…

We consider infinite parametric families of high degree number fields composed of quadratic fields with pure cubic, pure quartic, pure sextic fields and with the so called simplest cubic, simplest quartic fields. We explicitly describe an…

We give a method for producing explicit bounds on $g(p)$, the least primitive root modulo $p$. Using our method we show that $g(p)<2r\,2^{r\omega(p-1)}\,p^{\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4r}}$ for $p>10^{56}$ where $r\geq 2$ is an integer parameter.…

Let $p$ be an odd prime, and define $$G_p(x)=\prod_{k=1}^{(p-1)/2}\left(x-e^{2\pi i k^2/p}\right).$$ In this paper we study values of $G_p(x)$ at roots of unity via Galois theory, and confirm some previous conjectures. For example, for any…

Let $p>2$ be prime and $g$ a primitive root modulo $p$. We present an argument for the fact that discrete logarithms of the numbers in any arithmetic progression are uniformly distributed in $[1,p]$ and raise some questions on the subject.
