Explicit Selmer groups for cyclic covers of ℙ¹

Michael Stoll, Ronald van Luijk (2013)

Acta Arithmetica

For any abelian variety J over a global field k and an isogeny ϕ: J → J, the Selmer group S e l ϕ ( J , k ) is a subgroup of the Galois cohomology group H ¹ ( G a l ( k s / k ) , J [ ϕ ] ) , defined in terms of local data. When J is the Jacobian of a cyclic cover of ℙ¹ of prime degree p, the Selmer group has a quotient by a subgroup of order at most p that is isomorphic to the ‘fake Selmer group’, whose definition is more amenable to explicit computations. In this paper we define in the same setting the ‘explicit Selmer group’, which is isomorphic...

Explicit upper bounds for |L(1,χ)| when χ(3) = 0

David J. Platt, Sumaia Saad Eddin (2013)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Let χ be a primitive Dirichlet character of conductor q and denote by L(z,χ) the associated L-series. We provide an explicit upper bound for |L(1,χ)| when 3 divides q.

Exponent of class group of certain imaginary quadratic fields

Kalyan Chakraborty, Azizul Hoque (2020)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Let n > 1 be an odd integer. We prove that there are infinitely many imaginary quadratic fields of the form x 2 - 2 y n whose ideal class group has an element of order n . This family gives a counterexample to a conjecture by H. Wada (1970) on the structure of ideal class groups.

Exponential generating function of hyperharmonic numbers indexed by arithmetic progressions

István Mező (2013)

Open Mathematics

There is a circle of problems concerning the exponential generating function of harmonic numbers. The main results come from Cvijovic, Dattoli, Gosper and Srivastava. In this paper, we extend some of them. Namely, we give the exponential generating function of hyperharmonic numbers indexed by arithmetic progressions; in the sum several combinatorial numbers (like Stirling and Bell numbers) and the hypergeometric function appear.

Exponential polynomial inequalities and monomial sum inequalities in p -Newton sequences

Charles R. Johnson, Carlos Marijuán, Miriam Pisonero, Michael Yeh (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We consider inequalities between sums of monomials that hold for all p-Newton sequences. This continues recent work in which inequalities between sums of two, two-term monomials were combinatorially characterized (via the indices involved). Our focus is on the case of sums of three, two-term monomials, but this is very much more complicated. We develop and use a theory of exponential polynomial inequalities to give a sufficient condition for general monomial sum inequalities, and use the sufficient...
