Title The negative Pell equation
Speaker, Affiliation Dr. Peter Hubrecht Koymans,ETH Zurich, Switzerland
Date, Time 22 September 2023, 14:15-15:15
Location HG G 43
Abstract In this talk we will study the negative Pell equation, which is the conic C_D : x2- D y2= -1 to be solved in integers x, y in Z. We shall be concerned with the following question: as we vary over squarefree integers D, how often is C_D soluble? Stevenhagen conjectured an asymptotic formula for such D. Fouvry and Kluners gave upper and lower bounds of the correct order of magnitude. We will discuss a proof of Stevenhagen's conjecture, and, time permitting, potential applications of the new proof techniques. This is joint work with Carlo Pagano.

Title Consecutive sums of two squares in arithmetic progressions
Speaker, Affiliation Dr. Vivian Kuperberg,ETH Zürich
Date, Time 29 September 2023, 14:15-15:15
Location HG G 43
Abstract In 2000, Shiu proved that there are infinitely many primes whose last digit is 1 such that the next prime also ends in a 1. However, it is an open problem to show that there are infinitely many primes ending in 1 such that the next prime ends in 3. In this talk, we'll instead consider the sequence of sums of two squares in increasing order. In particular, we'll show that there are infinitely many sums of two squares ending in 1 such that the next sum of two squares ends in 3. We'll show further that all patterns of length 3 occur infinitely often: for any modulus q, every sequence (a mod q, b mod q, c mod q) appears infinitely often among consecutive sums of two squares. We'll discuss some of the proof techniques, and explain why they fail for primes. Joint work with Noam Kimmel.
