Abstract

We study the power sum problem max_{v=1,...,m} | sum_{k=1}^n z_k^v | and by using features of Fejer kernels we give new lower bounds in the case of unimodular complex numbers z_k and m cn^2 for constants c>1.

Sporadic points on $X_0(N)$

We determine all integers $N$ for which the modular curve $X_0(N)$ admits a sporadic CM point (of any degree), as well as all $N$ for which $X_0(N)$ admits a sporadic point, whether CM or non-CM. In a sense, our results generalize the classification of isogenies of elliptic curves over $\Q$ due to Mazur and Kenku: their work determines the $X_0(N)$ with degree 1 sporadic points, whereas we classify all $X_0(N)$ that have a sporadic point of arbitrary degree.

On the Number of Prime Factors of Consecutive Integers

We prove that there are infinitely many $n$ such that $ω(n+k) \ll \log k$ for all integers $k \ge 2$. This improves on a result of Tao and Teräväinen (2025), who have $O(k)$ in place of $O(\log k)$. As corollaries, we make progress on a number of questions posed by Erdős. The proof is based on a quantitative refinement of the Tao-Teräväinen probabilistic argument, combining a refined sieve construction with upper bounds for high moments and the resulting tail estimates. Moreover, we formulate a conjecture on integers with many prime factors based on Cramér-type random models. Assuming this conjecture, the main bound is essentially sharp.
