This thesis is concerned with the algebraic theory of hermitian forms. It is organized in two parts. The first, consisting of the first two chapters, deals with some descent properties of unimodular hermitian forms over central simple algebras with involut ...
In this note we study the existence of primes and of primitive divisors in function field analogues of classical divisibility sequences. Under various hypotheses, we prove that Lucas sequences and elliptic divisibility sequences over function fields define ...
In this Letter we propose a fast off-axis hologram autofocusing (AF) approach that is based on the redundant data elimination by the critical resampling of the contained complex field. Implementation of the proposed methodology enables the real-time AF wit ...
Let G be the product of an abelian variety and a torus defined over a number field K. Let R-1, ..., R-n be points in G(K). Let l be a rational prime, and let a(1), ..., a(n) be nonnegative integers. Consider the set of primes p of K satisfying the followin ...
Consider a diffusion field induced by a finite number of localized and instantaneous sources. In this paper, we study the problem of estimating these sources (including their intensities, spatial locations, and activation time) from the spatiotemporal samp ...
We exhibit central simple algebras over the function field of a diagonal quartic surface over the complex numbers that represent the 2-torsion part of its Brauer group. We investigate whether the 2-primary part of the Brauer group of a diagonal quartic sur ...
This thesis is concerned with computations of bounds for two different arithmetic invariants. In both cases it is done with the intention of proving some algebraic or arithmetic properties for number fields. The first part is devoted to computations of low ...
Let A be an Abelian variety defined over a number field k. Let P be a point in A(k) and let X be a subgroup of A(k). Gajda and Kowalski asked in 2002 whether it is true that the point P belongs to X if and only if the point (P mod p) belongs to (X mod p) f ...
