In this post we show that the Pontryagin dual group of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ is isomorphic to itself.

In this post we study the canonical Haar measure on $Q_p$, and give a explicit definition just as the Lebesgue measure.

In this post we show that the class of regular local rings (the abstract version of power series rings) is a subclass of Cohen-Macaulay ring.

In this post we show the Mason-Stothers theorem, the so-called $abc$ theorem for polynomials, and derive Fermat's Last theorem and Davenport's inequality for polynomials. These three theorems correspond to the $abc$ conjecture, Fermat's Last Theorem and Hall's conjecture in number theory.

We compute the analytic continuation of the Riemann Zeta function and after that the reader will realise that asserting $1+2+\dots=-\frac{1}{12}$ without enough caution is not a good idea.

In this post we study cyclotomic polynomials in field theory and deduce some baisc properties of it. We will also use it to solve some problems in field theory.

We study the height of polynomials and derive some important tools.

We prove the celebrated Hensel's lemma using the so-called Newton's method and "double induction", and try to find solutions of polynomials in $\mathbb{Q}_p$.

In this post we follow the step of Fulton-Harris to classify all irreducible representations of $GL_2(\mathbb{F}_q)$. A character table is added at the end.

We give a quick look at the Segre embedding and try to use that in a fundamental tool of Diophantine Geometry - heights.
