Arithmetic of cyclotomic fields and Fermat-type equations [PDF]
Let l be any odd prime, and ζ a primitive l-th root of unity. Let C_l be the l-Sylow subgroup of the ideal class group of Q(ζ). The Teichmüller character w : Z_l → Z^*_l is given by w(x) = x (mod l), where w(x) is a p-1-st root of unity, and x ∈ Z_l ...

Investigation of the gravitational lens effect with differential topology
In this thesis, the methods of differential topology are used to study the gravitational lensing effect. First, the reader is taken on a brief tour through the basics of black holes, wormholes, gravitational lensing and the mathematical tools of Fermat's

f$f$‐Diophantine sets over finite fields via quasi‐random hypergraphs from multivariate polynomials
Abstract We investigate f$f$‐Diophantine sets over finite fields via new explicit constructions of families of quasi‐random hypergraphs from multivariate polynomials. In particular, our construction not only offers a systematic method for constructing quasi‐random hypergraphs but also provides a unified framework for studying various hypergraphs ...

Variable selection via thresholding
Abstract Variable selection comprises an important step in many modern statistical inference procedures. In the regression setting, when estimators cannot shrink irrelevant signals to zero, covariates without relationships to the response often manifest small but nonzero regression coefficients.

Sophie Germain's theorem for prime pairs p, 6p + 1
In 1823, Sophie Germain (Mem. Acad. Sci. Inst. France 6 (1823), 1–60) showed that if p, 2p + 1 are both odd primes then the so-called “First Case” of Fermat's Last Theorem holds for p.

Arithmetic progressions at the Journal of the LMS
Abstract We discuss the papers P. Erdős and P. Turán, On some sequences of integers, J. London Math. Soc. (1) 11 (1936), 261–264 and K. F. Roth, On certain sets of integers, J. London Math. Soc. (1) 28 (1953), 104–109, both foundational papers in the study of arithmetic progressions in sets of integers, and their subsequent influence.

Diophantine tuples and product sets in shifted powers
Abstract Let k⩾2$k\geqslant 2$ and n≠0$n\ne 0$. A Diophantine tuple with property Dk(n)$D_k(n)$ is a set of positive integers A$A$ such that ab+n$ab+n$ is a k$k$th power for all a,b∈A$a,b\in A$ with a≠b$a\ne b$. Such generalizations of classical Diophantine tuples have been studied extensively.

Explicit Estimates in Inter-universal Teichmüller Theory [PDF]
In the final paper of a series of papers concerning inter- universal Teichmüller theory, Mochizuki verified various numerically non-effective versions of the Vojta, ABC, and Szpiro Conjectures over number fields.

On the Electromagnetic Energy Flow Along Geodesics
Abstract We present a field‐theoretic framework for modeling electromagnetic energy propagation in heterogeneous media by introducing the concept of electromagnetic geodesics. Unlike traditional ray optics, which assumes either a straight‐line propagation or a simple bending in refractive media, our approach formulates wave propagation as geodetic ...

Sophie Germain And The Struggles Of Women Mathematicians During The French Revolution [PDF]
In this thesis, I analyze the social conditions of women during a time that they were not encouraged to become educated. Throughout the period of the French Revolution and the Enlightenment, women struggled to penetrate into scientific fields as they ...
