The Complexity of the Theory of p-adic Numbers

چکیده

This paper addresses the question of the complexity of the decision problem for the theory Th(Q,) of p-ad ic numbers. The best known lower bound for the theory is double exponential alternating time with a linear number of alternations. I have designed an algorithm that determines the truth value of sentences of the theory requiring double exponential space. My algorithm is based on techniques used by Collins for the theory Th(R) of the reals, and on Denef’s work on semi-algebraic sets and cell decomposition for p-adic fields. N o elementary upper bound had been previously est a blished.

$p$-adic Dual Shearlet Frames

We introduced the continuous and discrete $p$-adic shearlet systems. We restrict ourselves to a brief description of the $p$-adic theory and shearlets in real case. Using the group $G_p$ consist of all $p$-adic numbers that all of its elements have a square root, we defined the continuous $p$-adic shearlet system associated with $L^2left(Q_p^{2}right)$. The discrete $p$-adic shearlet frames for...

p-adic Shearlets

The field $Q_{p}$ of $p$-adic numbers is defined as the completion of the field of the rational numbers $Q$ with respect to the  $p$-adic norm $|.|_{p}$. In this paper, we study the continuous and discrete $p-$adic shearlet systems on $L^{2}(Q_{p}^{2})$. We also suggest discrete $p-$adic shearlet frames. Several examples are provided.

Modified degenerate Carlitz's $q$-bernoulli polynomials and numbers with weight ($alpha ,beta $)

The main goal of the present paper is to construct some families of the Carlitz's $q$-Bernoulli polynomials and numbers. We firstly introduce the modified Carlitz's $q$-Bernoulli polynomials and numbers with weight ($_{p}$. We then define the modified degenerate Carlitz's $q$-Bernoulli polynomials and numbers with weight ($alpha ,beta $) and obtain some recurrence relations and other identities...

Behavior of $R$-groups for $p$-adic inner forms of quasi-split special unitary groups

‎We study $R$-groups for $p$-adic inner forms of quasi-split special unitary groups‎. ‎We prove Arthur's conjecture‎, ‎the isomorphism between the Knapp-Stein $R$-group and the Langlands-Arthur $R$-group‎, ‎for quasi-split special unitary groups and their inner forms‎. ‎Furthermore‎, ‎we investigate the invariance of the Knapp-Stein $R$-group within $L$-packets and between inner forms‎. ‎This w...

Near NP-Completeness for Detecting p-adic Rational Roots in One Variable

We show that deciding whether a sparse univariate polynomial has a p-adic rational root can be done in NP for most inputs. We also prove a polynomial-time upper bound for trinomials with suitably generic p-adic Newton polygon. We thus improve the best previous complexity upper bound of EXPTIME. We also prove an unconditional complexity lower bound of NP-hardness with respect to randomized reduc...
