This paper proves a conjecture proposed by Chen and Ru in [1] on the finiteness of the number of integer solutions to decomposable form inequalities. Let k be a number field and let F(X1,…,Xm) be a non-degenerate decomposable form with coefficients in k. We show that for every finite set of places S of k containing the archimedean places of k, for each real number λ < 1 and each constant c > 0, the inequality [Formula: see text] has only finitely many [Formula: see text]-non-proportional solutions, where HS(x1,…,xm) = Πυ∈S max 1≤i≤m ||xi||υ is the S-height.

Siegel, in a letter to Mordell of 1925(9), proved that the hyper-elliptic equation y2 = g(x) has only finitely many solutions in integers x and y, where g denotes a square-free polynomial of degree at least three with integer coefficients. Siegel's method reduces the hyperelliptic equation to a finite set of Thue equations f(x, y) = 1, where f denotes a binary form with algebraic coefficients and at least three distinct linear factors; x and y are integral in a fixed algebraic number field. Siegel had already proved that the Thue equations so obtained have only finitely many solutions. However, as is well known, the work of Siegel is ineffective in that it fails to provide bounds on the integer solutions of y2 = g(x). In 1969 Baker (1), using the theory of linear forms in logarithms, employed Siegel's technique to establish explicit bounds on x and y; Baker's result thus reduced the problem of determining all integer solutions of the hyperelliptic equation to a finite amount of computation.

Given a finite set $X$ and a function $f:X\to X$, we define the \emph{degree of noninvertibility} of $f$ to be $\displaystyle\deg(f)=\frac{1}{|X|}\sum_{x\in X}|f^{-1}(f(x))|$. This is a natural measure of how far the function $f$ is from being bijective. We compute the degrees of noninvertibility of some specific discrete dynamical systems, including the Carolina solitaire map, iterates of the bubble sort map acting on permutations, bubble sort acting on multiset permutations, and a map that we call "nibble sort." We also obtain estimates for the degrees of noninvertibility of West's stack-sorting map and the Bulgarian solitaire map. We then turn our attention to arbitrary functions and their iterates. In order to compare the degree of noninvertibility of an arbitrary function $f:X\to X$ with that of its iterate $f^k$, we prove that \[\max_{\substack{f:X\to X\\ |X|=n}}\frac{\deg(f^k)}{\deg(f)^\gamma}=\Theta(n^{1-1/2^{k-1}})\] for every real number $\gamma\geq 2-1/2^{k-1}$. We end with several conjectures and open problems.

Let $G$ be an anisotropic semisimple group over a totally real number field $F$. Suppose that $G$ is compact at all but one infinite place $v_{0}$. In addition, suppose that $G_{v_{0}}$ is $\mathbb{R}$-almost simple, not split, and has a Cartan involution defined over $F$. If $Y$ is a congruence arithmetic manifold of non-positive curvature associated with $G$, we prove that there exists a sequence of Laplace eigenfunctions on $Y$ whose sup norms grow like a power of the eigenvalue.

In the study of photon-state transitions, we found a natural extension of the first kind of Bessel functions that extends both the range and domain of the Bessel functions from the real number field to the complex number field. We term the extended Bessel functions as phased Bessel functions. This extension is completely different from the traditional “analytical extension”. The new complex Bessel functions satisfy addition, subtraction, and recurrence theorems in a complex range and a complex domain. These theorems provide short cuts in calculations. The single-phased Bessel functions are generalized to multiple-phased Bessel functions to describe various photon-state transitions.PACS Nos.: 02.30.Gp, 32.80.Rm, 42.50.Hz

AbstractLet V be a K3 surface defined over a number field k. The Batyrev-Manin conjecture for V states that for every nonempty open subset U of V, there exists a finite set ZU of accumulating rational curves such that the density of rational points on U − ZU is strictly less than the density of rational points on ZU. Thus, the set of rational points of V conjecturally admits a stratification corresponding to the sets ZU for successively smaller sets U.In this paper, in the case that V is a Kummer surface, we prove that the Batyrev-Manin conjecture for V can be reduced to the Batyrev-Manin conjecture for V modulo the endomorphisms of V induced by multiplication by m on the associated abelian surface A. As an application, we use this to show that given some restrictions on A, the set of rational points of V which lie on rational curves whose preimages have geometric genus 2 admits a stratification of Batyrev-Manin type.

Let us consider the following two problems:Problem A. Let g be a given Lie algebra over the real number field R. Then find all real, irreducible representations of g.Problem B. Let n be a given positive integer. Then find all irreducible subalgebras of the Lie algebra ôí(w, R) of all real matrices of degree n.

Let K be a number field. The integral trace form is the integral quadratic form given by tr k/ℚ(x2)|OK. In this article we study the existence of non-conjugated number fields with equivalent integral trace forms. As a corollary of one of the main results of this paper, we show that any two non-totally real number fields with the same signature and same prime discriminant have equivalent integral trace forms. Additionally, based on previous results obtained by the author and the evidence presented here, we conjecture that any two totally real quartic fields of fundamental discriminant have equivalent trace zero forms if and only if they are conjugated.
