Sums Of Squares In Algebraic Function Fields Over A Complete Discretely Valued Field

David Maximilian Grimm

A recently found local-global principle for quadratic forms over function fields of curves over a complete discretely valued field is applied to the study of quadratic forms, sums of squares, and related field invariants. ...

Theoretical Analysis of Euclidean Distance Matrix Completion for Ad hoc Microphone Array Calibration

Mohammadjavad Taghizadeh

We consider the problem of ad~hoc microphone array calibration where the distance matrix consisted of all microphones pairwise distances have entries missing corresponding to distances greater than

d_{\text{max}}

. Furthermore, the known entries are noisy ...

Modular Functions and Special Cycles

Maryna Viazovska

In this thesis we study algebraic cycles on Shimura varieties of orthogonal type. Such varieties are a higher dimensional generalization of modular curves and their important feature is that they have natural families of algebraic cycles in all codimesions ...

Hermitian Forms over Algebras with Involution and Hermitian Categories

Daniel Arnold Moldovan

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 ...

On the Brauer group of diagonal quartic surfaces

Evis Ieronymou

We obtain an easy sufficient condition for the Brauer group of a diagonal quartic surface D over Q to be algebraic. We also give an upper bound for the order of the quotient of the Brauer group of D by the image of the Brauer group of Q. The proof is based ...

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 ...

Sur la méthode de Buser-Silhol pour l'uniformisation des surfaces de Riemann hyperelliptiques

Grégoire Aubry

The Uniformization Theorem due to Koebe and Poincaré implies that every compact Riemann surface of genus greater or equal to 2 can be endowed with a metric of constant curvature – 1. On the other hand, a compact Riemann surface is a complex algebraic curve ...

Annihilating Polynomials for Quadratic Forms

Klaas-Tido Rühl

Let K be a field with char(K) ≠ 2. The Witt-Grothendieck ring (K) and the Witt ring W (K) of K are both quotients of the group ring ℤ[𝓖(K)], where 𝓖(K) := K*/(K*)2 is the square class group of K. Since ℤ[𝓖(K)] is integra ...

Polar Codes: Characterization of Exponent, Bounds, and Constructions

Rüdiger Urbanke, Satish Babu Korada, Eren Sasoglu

Polarization codes were recently introduced by Ar\i kan. They are explicit code constructions which achieve the capacity of arbitrary symmetric binary-input discrete memoryless channels (and even extensions thereof) under a low complexity successive decodi ...
