In this note, we study the set of values of the quadruplet where and denote the lower and upper asymptotic density, respectively. Complementing existing results on the topic, we determine each of its six projections on coordinate planes, that is, the sets of possible values of the six subpairs of the quadruplet. Further, we show that this set has non empty interior, in particular has positive measure. To do so, we use among others probabilistic and diophantine methods. Some auxiliary results pertaining to these methods may be of general interest.
在这篇文章中,我们研究了四重态(d_(A), D (A),d_(2A), D (2A))的值的集合D,其中A∧N和d_, D分别表示下和上渐近密度。补充已有的结果,我们确定了它在坐标平面上的六个投影,即四重体的六个子对的可能值的集合。进一步证明了该集合D具有非空的内部,特别是具有正测度。为此,我们使用概率和丢番图方法。与这些方法有关的一些辅助结果可能会引起一般的兴趣。

The Piltz divisor problem is a natural generalization of the classical Dirichlet divisor problem. In this paper, we study this problem over number fields and obtain improved Ω-bounds for its error terms. Our approach involves generalizing a Voronoi-type formula due to Soundararajan in the number field setting, and applying a recent result due to the second author.

Let E be an elliptic curve defined over . For an odd prime l, we consider the family of degree l cyclic extensions K over . When we view the elliptic curve E as a curve over K, the analytic rank of the L-function of E over K may increase compared to that of the L-function of E over . Under the generalized Riemann hypothesis, we demonstrate the rarity of significant increases in analytic ranks.

We also establish new estimates for bilinear forms with two variables from arbitrary subsets of , which has expanded the range of obtained by Xi (2023).

The main aim of this paper is to investigate Greenberg's conjecture for real biquadratic fields. More precisely, we propose the following problem:
What are real biquadratic number fields k such that ? where is the 2-Iwasawa module of k and is the 2-class group of the first layer of the cyclotomic -extension of k. Moreover, we give several families of real biquadratic fields k such that is trivial or isomorphic to or , where n is a given positive integer. The reader can also find some results concerning the 2-rank of the class group of certain real triquadratic fields.

Consider a hyperelliptic curve of genus g over a field K of characteristic zero. After extending K we can view it as a marked curve with its Weierstrass points. We present an explicit algorithm to compute the stable reduction of this marked curve for a valuation of residue characteristic 2 over a finite extension of K. In the cases we work out relatively simple conditions for the structure of this reduction.

We prove a new bound to the exponential sum of the form by a new approach to the Type I sum. The sum can be applied to many problems related to Piatetski-Shapiro primes, which are primes of the form . In this paper, we improve the admissible range of the Balog-Friedlander condition, which leads to an improvement to the ternary Goldbach problem with Piatetski-Shapiro primes. We also investigate the distribution of Piatetski-Shapiro primes in arithmetic progressions, Piatetski-Shapiro primes in a Beatty sequence and so on.

For any integer such that −d is a fundamental discriminant, we show that the Dirichlet L-function associated with the real primitive character does not vanish on the positive part of the interval . As an application of this result, we prove that the size of the torsion subgroup of an elliptic curve with complex multiplication over a degree d number field is bounded above by for .
对于任意整数d≥3且−d是一个基本判判式,我们证明了与实基元特征χ(⋅)=(−d⋅)相关的Dirichlet l -函数在区间[1−6.035/d,1]的正部不消失。作为这一结果的一个应用,我们证明了在d次数域上具有复数乘法的椭圆曲线的扭转子群的大小在d≥3⋅108时有390dlog log log d的上界。
