Binary quartic forms with vanishing $J$-invariant

Number Theory 2019-12-20 v2

Abstract

We obtain an asymptotic formula for the number of GL2(Z)\operatorname{GL}_2(\mathbb{Z})-equivalence classes of irreducible binary quartic forms with integer coefficients with vanishing JJ-invariant and whose Hessians are proportional to the squares of reducible or positive definite binary quadratic form. These results give a case where one is able to count integral orbits inside a relatively open real orbit of a variety closed under a group action of degree at least three.
