Arithmetic Bounds-Lenstra's Constant and Torsion of K-Groups

Julien Houriet

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 ...

Diagonal Quartic Surfaces And Transcendental Elements Of The Brauer Group

Evis Ieronymou

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 ...

Optically Generated Electric Fields by Lithium Niobate Nanowires

Demetri Psaltis, László Forró, Arnaud Magrez, Ye Pu, Rachel Grange, Chia-Lung Hsieh, Jae-Woo Choi, Rita Smajda

We demonstrate that lithium niobate nanowires generate electric fields under 514 nm continuous wave laser illumination. Birefringent media are used to visualize the generated fields in a microfluidic channel. Input laser polarization dependence is shown. ( ...

Two variants of the support problem for products of abelian varieties and tori

Antonella Perucca

Let G be the product of an abelian variety and a torus defined over a number field K. Let P and Q be K-rational points on G. Suppose that for all but finitely many primes p of K the order of (Q mod p) divides the order of (P mod p). Then there exist a K-en ...

Euclidean minima and central division algebras

Eva Bayer Fluckiger, Jérôme Chaubert

The notion of Euclidean minimum of a number field is a classical one. In this paper we generalize it to central division algebras and establish some general results in this new context. ...

Non-unitarisable representations and random forests

Nicolas Monod

We establish a connection between Dixmier's unitarisability problem and the expected degree of random forests on a group. As a consequence, a residually finite group is non-unitarisable if its first L2-Betti number is non-zero or if it is finitely generate ...

Foncteurs de Mackey projectifs

This work deals with the study of projective Mackey functors. Mackey functors are algebraic structures with operations which behave like induction, restriction and conjugation in group representation theory. These objects have properties which generalize m ...

Horocyclic products of trees

Let T-1, ... , T-d be homogeneous trees with degrees q(1) + 1, ... , q(d) + 1 >= 3; respectively. For each tree, let h : Tj -> Z be the Busemann function with respect to a fixed boundary point ( end). Its level sets are the horocycles. The horocyclic produ ...

Upper bounds for Euclidean minima of algebraic number fields

Eva Bayer Fluckiger

The aim of this paper is to give new upper bounds for Euclidean minima of algebraic number fields. In particular, to show that Minkowski's conjecture holds for the maximal totally real subfields of cyclotomic fields of prime power conductor. ...

Réseaux idéaux sur des corps CM et des corps totalement réels

Ivan Suarez Atias

This thesis deals with the study of ideal lattices over number fields. Let K be a number field, which is assumed to be CM or totally real. An ideal lattice over K is a pair (I,b), where I is a fractional ideal of K and b : I × I → R is a symmetric positive ...
