Random Diophantine equations in the primes
Mathematika, Volume 72, Issue 3, July 2026.Abstract We consider equations of the form a1x1k+⋯+asxsk=0$a_{1}x_{1}^{k}+\cdots +a_{s}x_{s}^{k}=0$ where the variables xi$x_{i}$ are all taken to be primes. We define an analogue of the Hasse principle for solubility in the primes (which we call the prime Hasse principle), and prove that, whenever k⩾2$k\geqslant 2$, s⩾3k+2$s\geqslant 3k+2$, this holds

New results on embeddings of self‐similar sets via renormalization
Proceedings of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 133, Issue 1, July 2026.Abstract For self‐similar sets X,Y⊆R$X,Y\subseteq \mathbb {R}$, we obtain new results toward the affine embeddings conjecture of Feng–Huang–Rao (2014), and the equivalent weak intersections conjecture. We show that the conjecture holds when the defining maps of X,Y$X,Y$ have algebraic contraction ratios, and also for arbitrary Y$Y$ when the maps ...

Diophantine equations involving factorials [PDF]
, 2017 summary:We study the Diophantine equations $(k!)^n -k^n = (n!)^k-n^k$ and $(k!)^n +k^n = (n!)^k +n^k,$ where $k$ and $n$ are positive integers. We show that the first one holds if and only if $k=n$ or $(k,n)=(1,2),(2,1)$ and that the second one holds if ...

Kripke on Gödel Incompleteness
Theoria, Volume 92, Issue 3, June 2026.ABSTRACT This paper surveys six of Saul Kripke's highly creative ideas and results on Gödel incompleteness, from when he was an undergraduate to last publications. These include his extension of incompleteness from sentences to predicates, his model‐theoretic proof of incompleteness of arithmetic, his compelling analysis of incompleteness in terms of ...

Double‐jump phase transition for the reverse Littlewood–Offord problem
Journal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 113, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Erdős conjectured in 1945 that for any unit vectors v1,…,vn$v_1, \ldots, v_n$ in R2$\mathbb {R}^2$ and signs ε1,…,εn$\varepsilon _1, \ldots, \varepsilon _n$ taken independently and uniformly in {−1,1}$\lbrace -1,1\rbrace$, the random Rademacher sum σ=ε1v1+⋯+εnvn$\sigma = \varepsilon _1 v_1 + \cdots + \varepsilon _n v_n$ satisfies ∥σ∥2⩽1$\Vert \

Journal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 113, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract We survey ideas surrounding the study of the number of integers that can be represented as the sum of three positive cubes. We focus on the early contribution of Davenport using elementary techniques, and the subsequent developments due to Vaughan, which introduced Fourier analysis and mirrored many of the important developments of the Hardy ...

HNN extensions and embedding theorems for groups
Journal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 113, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract The Higman–Neumann–Neumann (HNN) paper of 1949 is a landmark of group theory in the 20th century. The proof of its main theorem covers less than a page and uses only pre‐existing technology, but the construction that it introduced, the HNN extension, quickly became one of the principal tools of combinatorial group theory, widely used to build ...

Random Diophantine equations in the primes II
Journal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 113, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Let d⩾2$d\geqslant 2$ and n⩾d$n\geqslant d$ with (d,n)∉{(2,2),(3,3)}$(d,n)\notin \lbrace (2,2),(3,3)\rbrace$. We consider homogeneous Diophantine equations of degree d$d$ in n+1$n+1$ variables and whether they have solutions in the primes.

Fortschritte der Physik, Volume 74, Issue 4, April 2026.ABSTRACT In this paper, we continue the development of the Cartan neural networks programme, launched with three previous publications, by focusing on some mathematical foundational aspects that we deem necessary for our next steps forward. The mathematical and conceptual results are diverse and span various mathematical fields, but the inspiring ...

Combinatorial Diophantine equations and a refinement of a theorem on separated variables equations [PDF]
, 2013 We look at Diophantine equations arising from equating classical counting functions such as perfect powers, binomial coefficients and Stirling numbers of the first and second kind.
