Abstract

We present the Enhanced Multidimensional Chaotic Heuristic Sieve (EMCHS), a novel probabilistic framework that integrates chaotic perturbations and random matrix theory (RMT) to suggest improved bounds on prime gaps. Building upon the foundational sieves of Goldston-Pintz-Yildirim and Maynard, EMCHS heuristically suggests unconditional gaps of at most 180 and conditional gaps of at most 8 under a partial Elliott-Halberstam conjecture (EHC) with delta = 0.3. These heuristic suggestions surpass Maynard's unconditional bound of 246 through refined polytope optimizations and probabilistic enhancements. We provide rigorous proofs for certain analytic components (such as bounding chaotic perturbations via ergodic theory) and explicitly distinguish which arguments and conclusions are heuristic or conjectural. Numerical evidence for primes up to 10^18 supports the framework, and we discuss limitations and avenues for future rigorous work.

On vector valued automorphic forms for the Weil representation

We develop a theory of vector valued automorphic forms associated to the Weil representation $ω_f$ and corresponding to vector valued modular forms transforming with the ``finite'' Weil representation $ρ_L$. For each prime $p$ we determine the structure of a vector valued spherical Hecke algebra depending on $ω_f$, which acts on the space of automorphic forms.

Hilbert's tenth problem for families of $ \mathbb{Z}_p $-extensions of imaginary quadratic fields

Via a novel application of Iwasawa theory, we study Hilbert's tenth problem for number fields occurring in $\mathbb{Z}_p$-towers of imaginary quadratic fields $K$. For a odd prime $p$, the lines $(a,b) \in \mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{Z}_p)$ are identified with $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extensions $ K_{a,b}/K $. Under certain conditions on $ K $ that involve explicit elliptic curves, we identify a line $(a_0,b_0) \in \mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z})$ such that for all $(a,b) \in \mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{Z}_p)$ with $(a, b)\not\equiv (a_0, b_0)\pmod{p}$, Hilbert's tenth problem has a negative answer in all finite layers of $ K_{a,b} $. Using results of Bhargava et al., we prove unconditionally that a positive proportion of imaginary quadratic fields meet our criterion when $p=3$. For $p=11,13,31,37$, the analogous conclusions obtained from the rank-zero twist families of Kriz--Li are conditional on the vanishing of the $p$-primary Tate--Shafarevich groups for a positive relative proportion of those twists.

The standard $L$-function attached to a vector valued modular form

We define two $L$-functions associated to a common vector valued eigenform $f$ transforming with the ``finite'' Weil representation. The first one can be seen as a standard zeta function defined by the eigenvalues of $f$. The second one can be interpreted as standard $L$-function defined as an Euler product where each $p$-factor is a rational function in terms of two unramified characters of the $p$-adic field $\Q_p$. We show that both $L$-functions are related and prove further that they both can be continued meromorphically to the whole complex $s$-plane.
