Circulant digraphs determined by their spectra

Inspired by Ádám's conjecture the isomorphism problem of circulant digraphs is widely investigated. In the literature, the spectrum method was to solve the isomorphism problem for the circulants of prime-power order by some people. In this paper, we develop the spectrum method to characterize the circulant digraphs of orders p^a and p^aq^b, where p and q are distinct primes.     

Power integral bases for Selmer-like number fields

The Selmer trinomials are the trinomials f(X)∈{Xn−X−1,Xn+X+1|n>1 is an integer} over Z. For these trinomials we show that the ideal C=(f(X),f^′(X))Z[X] has height two and contains the linear polynomial (n−1)X+n. We then give several necessary and sufficient conditions for D[X]/(f(X)D[X]) to be a regular ring, where f(X) is an arbitrary polynomial over a Dedekind domain D such that its ideal C has height two and contains a product of primitive linear polynomials. We next specialize to the Selmer-like trinomials bXn+cX+d and bXn+cXn−1+d over D and give several more such necessary and sufficient conditions (among them is that C is a radical ideal). We then specialize to the Selmer trinomials over Z and give quite a few more such conditions (among them is that the discriminant Disc(Xn−X−1)=±(nn−(1−n)ⁿ⁻¹) of Xn−X−1 is square-free (respectively Disc(Xn+X+1)=±(nn+(1−n)ⁿ⁻¹) of Xn+X+1 is square-free)). Finally, we show that nn+(1−n)ⁿ⁻¹ is never square-free when n≡2 (mod 3) and n>2, but, otherwise, both are very often (but not always) square-free.

Gaussian integral circulant digraphs

The spectrum of a digraph in general contains real and complex eigenvalues. A digraph is called a Gaussian integral digraph if it has a Gaussian integral spectrum that is all eigenvalues are Gaussian integers. In this paper, we consider Gaussian integral digraphs among circulant digraphs.     

Permutation polynomials over algebraic number fields

Let K be an algebraic number field. It is known that any polynomial which induces a permutation on infinitely many residue class fields of K is a composition of cyclic and Chebyshev polynomials. This paper deals with the problem of deciding, for a given K, which compositions of cyclic or Chebyshev polynomials have this property. The problem is reduced to the case where K is an Abelian extension of $\text{Q}$. Then the question is settled for polynomials of prime degree, and the Abelian case for composite degree polynomials is considered. Finally, various special cases are dealt with.     

Maximal order codes over number fields

We present constructions of codes obtained from maximal orders over number fields. Particular cases include codes from algebraic number fields by Lenstra and Guruswami, codes from units of the ring of integers of number fields, and codes from both additive and multiplicative structures of maximal orders in central simple division algebras. The parameters of interest are the code rate and the minimum Hamming distance. An asymptotic study reveals several families of asymptotically good codes.     

Metric Mahler measures over number fields

For an algebraic number α, the metric Mahler measure \({m_1(\alpha)}\) was first studied by Dubickas and Smyth [4] and was later generalized to the t-metric Mahler measure \({m_t(\alpha)}\) by the author [16]. The definition of \({m_t(\alpha)}\) involves taking an infimum over a certain collection N-tuples of points in \(\overline{\mathbb{Q}}\), and from previous work of Jankauskas and the author, the infimum in the definition of \({m_t(\alpha)}\) is attained by rational points when \({\alpha\in \mathbb{Q}}\). As a consequence of our main theorem in this article, we obtain an analog of this result when \({\mathbb{Q}}\) is replaced with any imaginary quadratic number field of class number equal to 1. Further, we study examples of other number fields to which our methods may be applied, and we establish various partial results in those cases.     

Cubic polynomials over algebraic number fields

We prove that every cubic form in 16 variables over an algebraic number field represents zero, generalizing the corresponding result of Davenport for cubic forms over the rationals. (This has already been proved for cubic forms in 17 or more variables by Ryavec.) We present this result as a special case of a “local-implies-global” theorem for cubic polynomials.     

Normal binomials over algebraic number fields

In this paper, normal and weakly normal binomials over an arbitrary algebraic number field will be characterized. Explicit results on the possible degrees of such binomials are given. Several examples conclude the paper.

Some Galois groups over number fields

Some conditions are stated which imply that certain finite groups are Galois groups over some number fields and related fields.     

Prime number theorems for Rankin-Selberg L-functions over number fields

In this paper we define a Rankin-Selberg L-function attached to automorphic cuspidal represen-tations of GLm(AE) × GLm (AF ) over cyclic algebraic number fields E and F which are invariant under the Galois action,by exploiting a result proved by Arthur and Clozel,and prove a prime number theorem for this L-function.     

Hasse principle for classical groups over function fields of curves over number fields

In (Letter to J.-P. Serre, 12 June 1991) Colliot-Thélène conjectures the following: Let F be a function field in one variable over a number field, with field of constants k and G be a semisimple simply connected linear algebraic group defined over F. Then the map has trivial kernel, denoting the set of places of k.The conjecture is true if G is of type 1A∗, i.e., isomorphic to SL₁(A) for a central simple algebra A over F of square free index, as pointed out by Colliot-Thélène, being an immediate consequence of the theorems of Merkurjev-Suslin [S1] and Kato [K]. Gille [G] proves the conjecture if G is defined over k and F=k(t), the rational function field in one variable over k. We prove that the conjecture is true for groups G defined over k of the types 2A∗, B_n, C_n, D_n (D₄ nontrialitarian), G₂ or F₄; a group is said to be of type 2A∗, if it is isomorphic to SU(B,τ) for a central simple algebra B of square free index over a quadratic extension k′ of k with a unitary k′|k involution τ.     

Solving resultant form equations over number fields

We give an efficient algorithm for solving resultant form equations over number fields. This is the first time that such equations are completely solved by reducing them to unit equations in two variables.

     

Jacobi forms over totally real number fields

We define Jacobi forms over a totally real algebraic number field K and construct examples by first embedding the group and the space into the symplectic group and the symplectic upper half space respectively. Then symplectic modular forms are created and Jacobi forms arise by taking the appropriate Fourier coefficients. Also some known relations of Jacobi forms to vector valued modular forms over rational numbers are extended to totally real fields.     

Lifting Galois representations over arbitrary number fields

It is proved that every two-dimensional residual Galois representation of the absolute Galois group of an arbitrary number field lifts to a characteristic zero p-adic representation, if local lifting problems at places above p are unobstructed.
