Nonlinear exponential twists of the Liouville function

Qingfeng Sun (2011)

Open Mathematics

Let λ(n) be the Liouville function. We find a nontrivial upper bound for the sum X n 2 X λ ( n ) e 2 π i α n , 0 α The main tool we use is Vaughan’s identity for λ(n).

Nonreciprocal algebraic numbers of small Mahler's measure

Artūras Dubickas, Jonas Jankauskas (2013)

Acta Arithmetica

We prove that there exist at least cd⁵ monic irreducible nonreciprocal polynomials with integer coefficients of degree at most d whose Mahler measures are smaller than 2, where c is some absolute positive constant. These polynomials are constructed as nonreciprocal divisors of some Newman hexanomials 1 + x r + + x r , where the integers 1 ≤ r₁ < ⋯ < r₅ ≤ d satisfy some restrictions including 2 r j < r j + 1 for j = 1,2,3,4. This result improves the previous lower bound cd³ and seems to be closer to the correct value of...

Nonreciprocal algebraic numbers of small measure

Artūras Dubickas (2004)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

The main result of this paper implies that for every positive integer d 2 there are at least ( d - 3 ) 2 / 2 nonconjugate algebraic numbers which have their Mahler measures lying in the interval ( 1 , 2 ) . These algebraic numbers are constructed as roots of certain nonreciprocal quadrinomials.

Non-solvable base change for Hilbert modular representations and zeta functions of twisted quaternionic Shimura varieties

Cristian Virdol (2010)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

In this paper we prove some non-solvable base change for Hilbert modular representations, and we use this result to show the meromorphic continuation to the entire complex plane of the zeta functions of some twisted quaternionic Shimura varieties. The zeta functions of the twisted quaternionic Shimura varieties are computed at all places.

Non-trivial Ш in the Jacobian of an infinite family of curves of genus 2

Anna Arnth-Jensen, E. Victor Flynn (2009)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

We give an infinite family of curves of genus 2 whose Jacobians have non-trivial members of the Tate-Shafarevich group for descent via Richelot isogeny. We prove this by performing a descent via Richelot isogeny and a complete 2-descent on the isogenous Jacobian. We also give an explicit model of an associated family of surfaces which violate the Hasse principle.

Non-Typical Points for β-Shifts

David Färm, Tomas Persson (2013)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

We study sets of non-typical points under the map f β β x mod 1 for non-integer β and extend our results from [Fund. Math. 209 (2010)] in several directions. In particular, we prove that sets of points whose forward orbit avoid certain Cantor sets, and the set of points for which ergodic averages diverge, have large intersection properties. We observe that the technical condition β > 1.541 found in the above paper can be removed.
