The multivariate Serre conjecture ring

It is well-known that for any integral domain R, the Serre conjecture ring R(X), i.e., the localization of the univariate polynomial ring R[X] at monic polynomials, is a Bezout domain of Krull dimension

On p-adic Versions of the Manin-Mumford Conjecture

Vlad Serban

We establish p-adic versions of the Manin-Mumford conjecture, which states that an irreducible subvariety of an abelian variety with dense torsion has to be the translate of a subgroup by a torsion point. We do so in the context of certain rigid analytic s ...

Automorphisms of even unimodular lattices and equivariant Witt groups

Eva Bayer Fluckiger

We characterize the irreducible polynomials that occur as the characteristic polynomial of an automorphism of an even unimodular lattice of a given signature, generalizing a theorem of Gross and McMullen. As part of the proof, we give a general criterion i ...

On the lifting of the Dade group

Jacques Thévenaz, Caroline Lassueur

For the group of endo-permutation modules of a finite p-group, there is a surjective reduction homomorphism from a complete discrete valuation ring of characteristic 0 to its residue field of characteristic p. We prove that this reduction map always has a ...

On the Exact Gevrey Order of Formal Puiseux Series Solutions to the Third Painleve Equation

Andrey Vasilyev

In this paper, we study the third Painleve equation with parameters gamma = 0, alpha delta not equal 0. The Puiseux series formally satisfying this equation (after a certain change of variables) asymptotically approximate of Gevrey order one solutions to t ...

Generalized Norm-compatible Systems on Unitary Shimura Varieties

Mohamed Réda Boumasmoud

We define and study in terms of integral Iwahoriâ Hecke algebras a new class of geometric operators acting on the Bruhat-Tits building of connected reductive groups over p-adic fields. These operators, which we call U-operators, generalize the geometric n ...

Localization of inexpensive robots with low-bandwidth sensors

Francesco Mondada, Stéphane Magnenat, Ming Liu, Shiling Wang

Recent progress in electronics has allowed the construction of affordable mobile robots. This opens many new opportunities, in particular in the context of collective robotics. However, while several algorithms in this field require global localization, th ...

Stable high-order randomized cubature formulae in arbitrary dimension

Fabio Nobile, Giovanni Migliorati

We propose and analyse randomized cubature formulae for the numerical integration of functions with respect to a given probability measure μ defined on a domain Γ⊆ℝ^d, in any dimension d. Each cubature formula is conceived to be exact on a given finite dim ...

Conditional expanding bounds for two-variable functions over finite valuation rings

Van Thang Pham

In this paper, we use methods from spectral graph theory to obtain some results on the sum-product problem over finite valuation rings R of order q(r) which generalize recent results given by Hegyvari and Hennecart (2013). More precisely, we prove that, fo ...

Shimura Curves and Special Values of p-adic L-functions

Ernest Hunter Brooks

We construct "generalized Heegner cycles" on a variety fibered over a Shimura curve, defined over a number field. We show that their images under the p-adic Abel-Jacobi map coincide with the values (outside the range of interpolation) of a p-adic L-functio ...

Embedding functor for classical groups and Brauer–Manin obstruction

Eva Bayer Fluckiger, Ting-Yu Lee

Let K be a global field of characteristic not 2. The embedding problem for maximal tori in a classical group G can be described in terms of algebras with involution. The aim of this paper is to give an explicit description of the obstruction group to the H ...

Sums Of Squares In Algebraic Function Fields Over A Complete Discretely Valued Field

David Maximilian Grimm

A recently found local-global principle for quadratic forms over function fields of curves over a complete discretely valued field is applied to the study of quadratic forms, sums of squares, and related field invariants. ...

The valuation criterion for normal basis generators

If L/K is a finite Galois extension of local fields, then we say that the valuation criterion VC(L/K) holds if there is an integer d such that every element x is an element of L with valuation d generates a normal basis for L/K. Answering a question of Byo ...

Explicit construction of self-dual integral normal bases for the square-root of the inverse different

Let K be a finite extension of Q(p), let L/K be a finite abelian Galois extension of odd degree and let D-L be the valuation ring of L. We define A(L/K) to be the unique fractional D-L-ideal with square equal to the inverse different of L/K. For p an odd p ...

Two variants of the support problem for products of abelian varieties and tori

Let G be the product of an abelian variety and a torus defined over a number field K. Let P and Q be K-rational points on G. Suppose that for all but finitely many primes p of K the order of (Q mod p) divides the order of (P mod p). Then there exist a K-en ...
