We consider the problem of positive-semidefinite continuation: extending a partially specified covariance kernel from a subdomain Omega of a rectangular domain I x I to a covariance kernel on the entire domain I x I. For a broad class of domains Omega call ...
We provide new explicit examples of lattice sphere packings in dimensions 54, 55, 162, 163, 486 and 487 that are the densest known so far, using Kummer families of elliptic curves over global function fields.In some cases, these families of elliptic curves ...
We study the elliptic curves given by y(2) = x(3) + bx + t(3n+1) over global function fields of characteristic 3 ; in particular we perform an explicit computation of the L-function by relating it to the zeta function of a certain superelliptic curve u(3) ...
A classical result of Hasse states that the norm principle holds for finite cyclic extensions of global fields, in other words local norms are global norms. We investigate the norm principle for finite dimensional commutative kale algebras over global fiel ...
The paper presents a novel method to verify and debug gate-level arithmetic circuits implemented in Galois Field arithmetic. The method is based on forward reduction of the specification polynomials of the circuit in GF(2(m)) using GF(2) models of its logi ...
Embeddings of maximal tori in classical groups over fields of characteristic not 2 are the subject matter of several recent papers. The aim of the present paper is to give necessary and sufficient conditions for such an embedding to exist, when the base fi ...
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 ...
Let k be a global field of characteristic not 2, and let f is an element of k[X] be an irreducible polynomial. We show that a non-degenerate quadratic space has an isometry with minimal polynomial f if and only if such an isometry exists over all the compl ...
We give necessary and sufficient conditions for an orthogonal group defined over a global field of characteristic not equal 2 to contain a maximal torus of a given type. ...
Let K be a global field of characteristic not 2. The embedding problem for maximal tori in a classical group G can be described in terms of algebras with involution. The aim of this paper is to give an explicit description of the obstruction group to the H ...
