Good reduction of elliptic curves over imaginary quadratic fields

Masanari Kida (2001)

Journal de théorie des nombres de Bordeaux

We prove that the j -invariant of an elliptic curve defined over an imaginary quadratic number field having good reduction everywhere satisfies certain Diophantine equations under some hypothesis on the arithmetic of the quadratic field. By solving the Diophantine equations explicitly in the rings of quadratic integers, we show the non-existence of such elliptic curve for certain imaginary quadratic fields. This extends the results due to Setzer and Stroeker.

Gosset polytopes in integral octonions

Woo-Nyoung Chang, Jae-Hyouk Lee, Sung Hwan Lee, Young Jun Lee (2014)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We study the integral quaternions and the integral octonions along the combinatorics of the 24 -cell, a uniform polytope with the symmetry D 4 , and the Gosset polytope 4 21 with the symmetry E 8 . We identify the set of the unit integral octonions or quaternions as a Gosset polytope 4 21 or a 24 -cell and describe the subsets of integral numbers having small length as certain combinations of unit integral numbers according to the E 8 or D 4 actions on the 4 21 or the 24 -cell, respectively. Moreover, we show that each...

Graded quaternion symbol equivalence of function fields

Przemysław Koprowski (2007)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We present criteria for a pair of maps to constitute a quaternion-symbol equivalence (or a Hilbert-symbol equivalence if we deal with global function fields) expressed in terms of vanishing of the Clifford invariant. In principle, we prove that a local condition of a quaternion-symbol equivalence can be transcribed from the Brauer group to the Brauer-Wall group.

Gravity, strings, modular and quasimodular forms

P. Marios Petropoulos, Pierre Vanhove (2012)

Annales mathématiques Blaise Pascal

Modular and quasimodular forms have played an important role in gravity and string theory. Eisenstein series have appeared systematically in the determination of spectrums and partition functions, in the description of non-perturbative effects, in higher-order corrections of scalar-field spaces, ...The latter often appear as gravitational instantons i.e. as special solutions of Einstein’s equations. In the present lecture notes we present a class of such solutions in four dimensions, obtained by...

Greatest common divisors of u - 1 , v - 1 in positive characteristic and rational points on curves over finite fields

Pietro Corvaja, Umberto Zannier (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

In our previous work we proved a bound for the g c d ( u 1 , v 1 ) , for S -units u , v of a function field in characteristic zero. This generalized an analogous bound holding over number fields, proved in [3]. As pointed out by Silverman, the exact analogue does not work for function fields in positive characteristic. In the present work, we investigate possible extensions in that direction; it turns out that under suitable assumptions some of the results still hold. For instance we prove Theorems 2 and 3 below, from...
