It is proved that Epstein's zeta-function $\zeta_{Q}(s)$, related to a positive definite integral binary quadratic form, has a zero $1/2 + i\gamma$ with $ T \leq \gamma \leq T + T^{{3/7} +\varepsilon} $ for sufficiently large positive numbers $T$. This is an improvement of the result by M. Jutila and K. Srinivas (Bull. London Math. Soc. 37 (2005) 45--53).

For an odd positive integer $n\ge 5$, assuming the truth of the $abc$ conjecture, we show that for a positive proportion of pairs $(a,b)$ of integers the trinomials of the form $t^n+at+b (a,b\in \mathbb Z)$ are irreducible and their discriminants are squarefree.

Let X be a projective variety, possibly singular. A generalized Albanese variety of X was constructed by Esnault, Srinivas and Viehweg over algebraically closed base field as a universal regular quotient of the relative Chow group of 0-cycles by Levine-Weibel. In this paper, we obtain a functorial description of the Albanese of Esnault-Srinivas-Viehweg over a perfect base field, using duality theory of 1-motives with unipotent part.

Let X be a projective variety over an algebraically closed base field, possibly singular. The aim of this paper is to show that the generalized Albanese variety of Esnault-Srinivas-Viehweg can be computed from one general curve C in X, if the base field is of characteristic 0. We illustrate this by an example, which we also use to unravel some mysterious properties of the Albanese of Esnault-Srinivas-Viehweg.

In this article we deal with the problem of counting the number of pairs of normalized eigenforms $ (f,g) $ of weight $k$ and level $N$ such that $ a_p (f) = a_p (g) $ where $a_p (f) $ denotes the $p-$th Fourier coefficient of $f$. Here $p$ is a fixed prime.

Let $K/\mathbb{Q}$ be an algebraic number field of class number one and $\mathcal{O}_K$ be its ring of integers. We show that there are infinitely many non-Wieferich primes with respect to certain units in $\mathcal{O}_K$ under the assumption of the \textit{abc} conjecture for number fields.

Let $K$ be a cyclic cubic field and $\mathcal{O}_K$ be its ring of integers. In this note we prove that all cyclic cubic number fields with conductors in the interval $ [73, 11971]$ and with class number one are Euclidean.

We show that bounding ramification at infinity bounds fierce ramification. This answers positively a question of Deligne posed to the first named author.

It is well-known that granular mixtures that differ in size or shape segregate when sheared. In the past, two mechanisms have been proposed to describe this effect, and it is unclear if both exist. To settle this question, we consider a bidisperse mixture of spheroids of equal volume in a rotating drum, where the two mechanisms are predicted to act in opposite directions. We present the first evidence that there are two \emph{distinct} segregation mechanisms driven by relative \emph{over-stress}. Additionally, we showed that for non-spherical particles, these two mechanisms can act in different directions leading to a competition between the effects of the two. As a result, the segregation intensity varies non-monotonically as a function of $AR$, and at specific points, the segregation direction changes for both prolate and oblate spheroids, explaining the surprising segregation reversal previously reported. Consistent with previous results, we found that the kinetic mechanism is dominant for (almost) spherical particles. Furthermore, for moderate aspect ratios, the kinetic mechanism is responsible for the spherical particles segregation to the periphery of the drum, and the gravity mechanism plays only a minor role. Whereas, at the extreme values of $AR$, the gravity mechanism notably increases and overtakes its kinetic counterpart.

Using feature-based Tree Adjoining Grammar (TAG), this paper presents linguistically motivated analyses of constructions claimed to require multi-component adjunction. These feature-based TAG analyses permit parsing of these constructions using an existing unification-based Earley-style TAG parser, thus obviating the need for a multi-component TAG parser without sacrificing linguistic coverage for English.
