Cycles on algebraic models of smooth manifolds

Wojciech Kucharz (2009)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Every compact smooth manifold $M$ is diffeomorphic to a nonsingular real algebraic set, called an algebraic model of $M$ . We study modulo 2 homology classes represented by algebraic subsets of $X$ , as $X$ runs through the class of all algebraic models of $M$ . Our main result concerns the case where $M$ is a spin manifold.

Recovering an algebraic curve using its projections from different points. Applications to static and dynamic computational vision

Jeremy Yirmeyahu Kaminski, Michael Fryers, Mina Teicher (2005)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We study some geometric configurations related to projections of an irreducible algebraic curve embedded in $ℂ ℙ^{3}$ onto embedded projective planes. These configurations are motivated by applications to static and dynamic computational vision. More precisely, we study how an irreducible closed algebraic curve $X$ embedded in $ℂ ℙ^{3}$ , of degree $d$ and genus $g$ , can be recovered using its projections from points onto embedded projective planes. The embeddings are unknown. The only input is the defining...

The R₂ measure for totally positive algebraic integers

V. Flammang (2016)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let α be a totally positive algebraic integer of degree d, i.e., all of its conjugates $α ₁ = α, . . ., α_{d}$ are positive real numbers. We study the set ₂ of the quantities ${(\prod_{i = 1}^{d} {(1 + α ²_{i})}^{1 / 2})}^{1 / d}$ . We first show that √2 is the smallest point of ₂. Then, we prove that there exists a number l such that ₂ is dense in (l,∞). Finally, using the method of auxiliary functions, we find the six smallest points of ₂ in (√2,l). The polynomials involved in the auxiliary function are found by a recursive algorithm.

Polynomial relations amongst algebraic units of low measure

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

For an algebraic number field and a subset $α_{1}, . . ., α_{r} \subseteq_{}$ , we establish a lower bound for the average of the logarithmic heights that depends on the ideal of polynomials in $ℚ [x_{1}, . . ., x_{r}]$ vanishing at the point $(α_{1}, . . ., α_{r})$ .

Algebraic independence of the values at algebraic points of a class of functions considered by Mahler

N. Ch. Wass

Similarity:

This thesis is concerned with the problem of determining a measure of algebraic independence for a particular m-tuple θ₁,..., $θ_{m}$ of complex numbers. Specifically, let K be a number field and let f₁(z),..., $f_{m} (z)$ be elements of K[[z]] algebraically independent over K(z) satisfying equations of the form(*) $f_{j} (z^{b}) = \sum_{i = 1}^{m} f_{i} (z) a_{i j} (z) + b_{j} (z)$ (j = i,...,m)for b ≥ 2, $a_{i j} (z)$ , $b_{j} (z)$ in K(z). Suppose finally that α ∈ K is such that 0 < |α| < 1, the $f_{j} (z$ ) converge at z = α and the $a_{i j} (z)$ , $b_{j} (z)$ are analytic at $z = α, α^{b}, α^{b ²}, . . .$ Then the $θ_{i} = f_{i} (α)$ are algebraically independent...

On the principle of real moduli flexibility: perfect parametrizations

Edoardo Ballico, Riccardo Ghiloni (2014)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

Let V be a real algebraic manifold of positive dimension. The aim of this paper is to show that, for every integer b (arbitrarily large), there exists a trivial Nash family $= {V_{y}}_{y \in R^{b}}$ of real algebraic manifolds such that V₀ = V, is an algebraic family of real algebraic manifolds over $y \in R^{b} ∖ 0$ (possibly singular over y = 0) and is perfectly parametrized by $R^{b}$ in the sense that $V_{y}$ is birationally nonisomorphic to $V_{z}$ for every $y, z \in R^{b}$ with y ≠ z. A similar result continues to hold if V is a singular real algebraic...

Diagonalization and rationalization of algebraic Laurent series

Boris Adamczewski, Jason P. Bell (2013)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

We prove a quantitative version of a result of Furstenberg [20] and Deligne [14] stating that the diagonal of a multivariate algebraic power series with coefficients in a field of positive characteristic is algebraic. As a consequence, we obtain that for every prime $p$ the reduction modulo $p$ of the diagonal of a multivariate algebraic power series $f$ with integer coefficients is an algebraic power series of degree at most $p^{A}$ and height at most $A p^{A}$ , where $A$ is an effective constant that only...

Nikolay Nikolov, Dan Segal (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Among compact Hausdorff groups $G$ whose maximal profinite quotient is finitely generated, we characterize those that possess a proper dense normal subgroup. We also prove that the abstract commutator subgroup $[H, G]$ is closed for every closed normal subgroup $H$ of $G$ .

Let k ∈ ℤ be such that $|_{k} (ℚ) |$ is finite, where $_{k} : y ² = 1 - 2 k x + k ² x ² - 4 x ³$ . We complete the determination of all solutions to xyz = 1 and x + y + z = k in integers of number fields of degree at most four over ℚ.

Rational points on curves

Michael Stoll (2011)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

This is an extended version of an invited lecture I gave at the Journées Arithmétiques in St. Étienne in July 2009. We discuss the state of the art regarding the problem of finding the set of rational points on a (smooth projective) geometrically integral curve $C$ over $ℚ$ . The focus is on practical aspects of this problem in the case that the genus of $C$ is at least $2$ , and therefore the set of rational points is finite.

Multiplicatively dependent triples of Tribonacci numbers

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

We consider the Tribonacci sequence $T : = {T_{n}}_{n \geq 0}$ given by T₀ = 0, T₁ = T₂ = 1 and $T_{n + 3} = T_{n + 2} + T_{n + 1} + T_{n}$ for all n ≥ 0, and we find all triples of Tribonacci numbers which are multiplicatively dependent.

Average r-rank Artin conjecture

Lorenzo Menici, Cihan Pehlivan (2016)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

Let Γ ⊂ ℚ * be a finitely generated subgroup and let p be a prime such that the reduction group Γₚ is a well defined subgroup of the multiplicative group ₚ*. We prove an asymptotic formula for the average of the number of primes p ≤ x for which [ₚ*:Γₚ] = m. The average is taken over all finitely generated subgroups $Γ = ⟨ a ₁, . . ., a_{r} ⟩ \subset ℚ *$ , with $a_{i} \in ℤ$ and $a_{i} \leq T_{i}$ , with a range of uniformity $T_{i} > e x p (4 {(l o g x l o g l o g x)}^{1 / 2})$ for every i = 1,...,r. We also prove an asymptotic formula for the mean square of the error terms in the asymptotic formula with...

On Zariski's theorem in positive characteristic

Ilya Tyomkin (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

In the current paper we show that the dimension of a family $V$ of irreducible reduced curves in a given ample linear system on a toric surface $S$ over an algebraically closed field is bounded from above by $- K_{S} . C + p_{g} (C) - 1$ , where $C$ denotes a general curve in the family. This result generalizes a famous theorem of Zariski to the case of positive characteristic. We also explore new phenomena that occur in positive characteristic: We show that the equality $𝚍𝚒𝚖 (V) = - K_{S} . C + p_{g} (C) - 1$ does not imply the nodality of $C$ even if $C$ belongs...

Ulm-Kaplansky invariants of S(KG)/G

P. V. Danchev (2005)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

Let G be an infinite abelian p-group and let K be a field of the first kind with respect to p of characteristic different from p such that $s_{p} (K) = ℕ$ or $s_{p} (K) = ℕ \cup 0$ . The main result of the paper is the computation of the Ulm-Kaplansky functions of the factor group S(KG)/G of the normalized Sylow p-subgroup S(KG) in the group ring KG modulo G. We also characterize the basic subgroups of S(KG)/G by proving that they are isomorphic to S(KB)/B, where B is a basic subgroup of G.

Some surfaces with maximal Picard number

Arnaud Beauville (2014)

Journal de l’École polytechnique — Mathématiques

Similarity:

For a smooth complex projective variety, the rank $ρ$ of the Néron-Severi group is bounded by the Hodge number $h^{1, 1}$ . Varieties with $ρ = h^{1, 1}$ have interesting properties, but are rather sparse, particularly in dimension $2$ . We discuss in this note a number of examples, in particular those constructed from curves with special Jacobians.

Rational fixed points for linear group actions

Pietro Corvaja (2007)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

Similarity:

We prove a version of the Hilbert Irreducibility Theorem for linear algebraic groups. Given a connected linear algebraic group $G$ , an affine variety $V$ and a finite map $π : V \to G$ , all defined over a finitely generated field $κ$ of characteristic zero, Theorem 1.6 provides the natural necessary and sufficient condition under which the set $π (V (κ))$ contains a Zariski dense sub-semigroup $Γ \subset G (κ)$ ; namely, there must exist an unramified covering $p : \tilde{G} \to G$ and a map $θ : \tilde{G} \to V$ such that $π \circ θ = p$ . In the case $κ = ℚ$ , $G = 𝔾_{a}$ is the additive group, we...

Frobenius nonclassicality with respect to linear systems of curves of arbitrary degree

Nazar Arakelian, Herivelto Borges (2015)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

For each integer s ≥ 1, we present a family of curves that are $_{q}$ -Frobenius nonclassical with respect to the linear system of plane curves of degree s. In the case s=2, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for such curves to be $_{q}$ -Frobenius nonclassical with respect to the linear system of conics. In the $_{q}$ -Frobenius nonclassical cases, we determine the exact number of $_{q}$ -rational points. In the remaining cases, an upper bound for the number of $_{q}$ -rational points will follow from Stöhr-Voloch...

An $a b c d$ theorem over function fields and applications

Pietro Corvaja, Umberto Zannier (2011)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

We provide a lower bound for the number of distinct zeros of a sum $1 + u + v$ for two rational functions $u, v$ , in term of the degree of $u, v$ , which is sharp whenever $u, v$ have few distinct zeros and poles compared to their degree. This sharpens the “ $a b c d$ -theorem” of Brownawell-Masser and Voloch in some cases which are sufficient to obtain new finiteness results on diophantine equations over function fields. For instance, we show that the Fermat-type surface $x^{a} + y^{a} + z^{c} = 1$ contains only finitely many rational or elliptic...

On arithmetic progressions on Edwards curves

Enrique González-Jiménez (2015)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

Let $m \in ℤ_{> 0}$ and a,q ∈ ℚ. Denote by $_{m} (a, q)$ the set of rational numbers d such that a, a + q, ..., a + (m-1)q form an arithmetic progression in the Edwards curve $E_{d} : x ² + y ² = 1 + d x ² y ²$ . We study the set $_{m} (a, q)$ and we parametrize it by the rational points of an algebraic curve.
