Sumsets in quadratic residues

I. D. Shkredov (2014)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

We describe all sets A p which represent the quadratic residues R p in the sense that R = A + A or R = A ⨣ A. Also, we consider the case of an approximate equality R ≈ A + A and R ≈ A ⨣ A and prove that A is then close to a perfect difference set.

Positivity of quadratic base change L -functions

Hervé Jacquet, Chen Nan (2001)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

We show that certain quadratic base change L -functions for Gl ( 2 ) are non-negative at their center of symmetry.

Another look at real quadratic fields of relative class number 1

Debopam Chakraborty, Anupam Saikia (2014)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

The relative class number H d ( f ) of a real quadratic field K = ℚ (√m) of discriminant d is defined to be the ratio of the class numbers of f and K , where K denotes the ring of integers of K and f is the order of conductor f given by + f K . R. Mollin has shown recently that almost all real quadratic fields have relative class number 1 for some conductor. In this paper we give a characterization of real quadratic fields with relative class number 1 through an elementary approach considering the...

Quadratic differentials ( A ( z - a ) ( z - b ) / ( z - c ) 2 ) d z 2 and algebraic Cauchy transform

Mohamed Jalel Atia, Faouzi Thabet (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

We discuss the representability almost everywhere (a.e.) in of an irreducible algebraic function as the Cauchy transform of a signed measure supported on a finite number of compact semi-analytic curves and a finite number of isolated points. This brings us to the study of trajectories of the particular family of quadratic differentials A ( z - a ) ( z - b ) ( z - c ) - 2 d z 2 . More precisely, we give a necessary and sufficient condition on the complex numbers a and b for these quadratic differentials to have finite critical...

The sum of divisors of a quadratic form

Lilu Zhao (2014)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

We study the sum τ of divisors of the quadratic form m₁² + m₂² + m₃². Let S ( X ) = 1 m , m , m X τ ( m ² + m ² + m ² ) . We obtain the asymptotic formula S₃(X) = C₁X³logX + C₂X³ + O(X²log⁷X), where C₁,C₂ are two constants. This improves upon the error term O ε ( X 8 / 3 + ε ) obtained by Guo and Zhai (2012).

Capturing forms in dense subsets of finite fields

Brandon Hanson (2013)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

An open problem of arithmetic Ramsey theory asks if given an r-colouring c:ℕ → 1,...,r of the natural numbers, there exist x,y ∈ ℕ such that c(xy) = c(x+y) apart from the trivial solution x = y = 2. More generally, one could replace x+y with a binary linear form and xy with a binary quadratic form. In this paper we examine the analogous problem in a finite field q . Specifically, given a linear form L and a quadratic form Q in two variables, we provide estimates on the necessary size...

Tameness criterion for posets with zero-relations and three-partite subamalgams of tiled orders

Stanisław Kasjan (2002)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

A criterion for tame prinjective type for a class of posets with zero-relations is given in terms of the associated prinjective Tits quadratic form and a list of hypercritical posets. A consequence of this result is that if Λ is a three-partite subamalgam of a tiled order then it is of tame lattice type if and only if the reduced Tits quadratic form q Λ associated with Λ in [26] is weakly non-negative. The result generalizes a criterion for tameness of such orders given by Simson [28]...

Isometries of quadratic spaces

Eva Bayer-Fluckiger (2015)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Let k be a global field of characteristic not 2, and let f k [ X ] be an irreducible polynomial. We show that a non-degenerate quadratic space has an isometry with minimal polynomial f if and only if such an isometry exists over all the completions of k . This gives a partial answer to a question of Milnor.

Minimal 𝒮 -universality criteria may vary in size

Noam D. Elkies, Daniel M. Kane, Scott Duke Kominers (2013)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

In this note, we give simple examples of sets 𝒮 of quadratic forms that have minimal 𝒮 -universality criteria of multiple cardinalities. This answers a question of Kim, Kim, and Oh [KKO05] in the negative.

Grothendieck and Witt groups in the reduced theory of quadratic forms

Andrzej Sładek (1980)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

Abstract. Let F be a formally real field. Denote by G(F) and G t ( F ) the Grothen-dieck group of quadratic forms over F and its torsion subgroup, respectively. In this paper we study the structure of the factor group G ( F ) / G t ( F ) . This reduced Grothendieck group is a free Abelian group. The main results of the paper describe some sets of generators for G ( F ) / G t ( F ) , which in many cases allow us to find a basis for the group. Throughout the paper we use the language of the reduced theory of quadratic forms. In the...

Monotonicity of the period function for some planar differential systems. Part I: Conservative and quadratic systems

A. Raouf Chouikha (2005)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

We first examine conditions implying monotonicity of the period function for potential systems with a center at 0 (in the whole period annulus). We also present a short comparative survey of the different criteria. We apply these results to quadratic Loud systems ( L D , F ) for various values of the parameters D and F. In the case of noncritical periods we propose an algorithm to test the monotonicity of the period function for ( L D , F ) . Our results may be viewed as a contribution to proving (or disproving)...

On some identities involving spherical means

Gianfranco Cimmino (1989)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

Similarity:

For every positive definite quadratic form in n variables the reciprocal of the square root of the discriminant is equal to the arithmetic mean of the values assumed by the form on the n - 1 sphere centered at 0 and with radius 1 raised to the ( - n 2 )-th. power. Various consequences are deduced from this, in particular a simplification of some calculations from which one obtains the possibility of solving linear systems using spherical means rather than determinants.

Porous Medium Type Equations with a Quadratic Gradient Term

Daniela Giachetti, Giulia Maroscia (2007)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

We show an existence result for the Cauchy-Dirichlet problem in Q T = Ω × ( 0 , T ) for parabolic equations with degenerate principal part (of porous medium type) with a lower order term having a quadratic growth with respect to the gradient. The right hand side of the equation f and the initial datum u 0 are bounded nonnegative functions.
