The number of solutions in finite fields of a system of polynomial equations obeys a very strong regularity, reflected for example by the rationality of the zeta function of an algebraic variety defined over a finite field, or the…
We give an upper bound for the number of rational points of height at most $B$, lying on a surface defined by a quadratic form $Q$. The bound shows an explicit dependence on $Q$. It is optimal with respect to $B$, and is also optimal for…
We show explicit estimates on the number of $q$--rational points of an $F_q$--definable affine absolutely irreducible variety of the algebraic closure of the finite field $F_q$ of $q$ elements. Our estimates for a hypersurface significantly…
We use a generalization of the Gibbons-Hawking ansatz to study the behavior of certain non-compact Calabi-Yau manifolds in the large complex structure limit. This analysis provides an intermediate step toward proving the metric collapse…
This note shows that a certain toric quotient of the quintic Calabi-Yau threefold in projective four-space provides a counterexample to a recent conjecture of Cox and Katz concerning nef cones of toric hypersurfaces.
The D'Angelo finite type is shown to be equivalent to the Kohn finite ideal type on smooth, pseudoconvex domains in complex n space. This is known as the Kohn Conjecture. The argument uses Catlin's notion of a boundary system as well as…
We establish a C^0 a priori bound on the solutions of the quaternionic Calabi-Yau equation (of Monge-Ampere type) on compact HKT manifolds with a locally flat hypercomplex structure. As an intermediate step, we prove a quaternionic version…
The Geometric Shafarevich Conjecture and the Theorem of de Franchis state the finiteness of the number of certain holomorphic objects on closed or punctured Riemann surfaces. The analog of these kind of theorems for Riemann surfaces of…
We determine a strong form of the decomposition theorem for proper toric maps over finite fields.
We give an upper bound for the number of points of a hypersurface over a finite field that has no lines on, in terms of the dimension, the degree, and the number of the elements of the finite field.
We show that any rational cubic hypersurface of dimension at least 33 defined over a number field $K$ vanishes on a $K$-rational projective line, reducing the previous lower bound of Wooley by two. For $K=\mathbb Q$ we can reduce the bound…
Leveraging tools from convex analysis and incorporating additional singular value information of matrices, we completely resolve the problem of establishing perturbation bounds for the Frobenius norm of subunitary and positive polar…
A Fourier restriction estimate is obtained for a broad class of conic surfaces by adding a weight to the usual underlying measure. The new restriction estimate exhibits a certain affine-invariance and implies the sharp $L^p-L^q$ restriction…
Let $\phi$ be a an endomorphism of degree $d\geq{2}$ of the projective line, defined over a number field $K$. Let $S$ be a finite set of places of $K$, including the archimedean places, such that $\phi$ has good reduction outside of $S$.…
We compute the algebraic $K$-theory of some classes of surfaces defined over finite fields. We achieve this by first calculating the motivic cohomology groups and then studying the motivic Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence. In an…
We study Calabi-Yau threefolds with large Hodge numbers by constructing and counting triangulations of reflexive polytopes. By counting points in the associated secondary polytopes, we show that the number of fine, regular, star…
For any finite field k of characteristic exceeding 3, the Hasse principle and weak approximation is established for non-singular cubic hypersurfaces X over the function field k(t), provided that X has dimension at least 6.
We combine the split torsor method and the hyperbola method for toric varieties to count rational points and Campana points of bounded height on certain subvarieties of toric varieties.
We fix a counting function of multiplicities of algebraic points in a projective hypersurface over a number field, and take the sum over all algebraic points of bounded height and fixed degree. An upper bound for the sum with respect to…
We improve the known upper bound for short exponential sums and increase the range on which a sharp upper bound is known.
